Danger in Bureaus

Now, 1t IS that supposedly harmless in
stitutlon, the bureau drawer. that IS
charged with hostile intentions toward the
human race. Women who get into the
habit of closing a bureau drawer by q
pressure OF the knee" says a prominent
physician, do not realize the harm that
may result from this practice. / have
known many serious cases of water on the
knee that were caused i'm this way. The
force required to shut a drawer in this
way is slight and one scarcely notices the
contact Of the knee with the drawer. But
the knee Joint is a delicate structure, and
a bruise may easily be caused that Will
lead ultimately to very serious consequent
ces. have had many patients who, from
indulging In this habit. have brought on
illnesses that lasted from one month to
six. So my advice to all women is to
lean over and shut the drawer. 1t IS bet
ter, although it may seem more trouble
some at the minute. The leaning over, in
stead Of being a disadvantage. is really an
excellent means Of exercise, and no way
of closing a door is so dangerous as tC

Hats of 1909

The summer hat of 1908 Is a most mar
vellous creation more closely allied TO a
composite photograph than to anything
else. just what shape. style and color to
choose is a most difficult task for the
woman whose means are limited and
whose tastes have hitherto been simple.
one moment the order is issued that only
the large fiat hat most brilliant in color
ing is fashionable, the next moment that
the small black hat without a trace of
color Is the only correct style. And so it
goes until in desperation either a lot Of dir-
fereu; shapes and styles are chosen or a
perfectly unwarranted sum of money IS
paid for so-called triumph Of the mill
liners art.
A black hat Is always a safe investment
to make and this year there are any num-
Der Of smart and becoming shapes and
quite a variety Of styles as well to choose
from i'm the all black. The stif round tur-
ban with brlm as high as the crown. trim
med with n twist Of velvet around the
crown and two dropping feathers put in
at the side and falling over the brlm at the
back Is a smant design. but not always n
becoming one. The fat lace hat made
with ruffles Of lace in a most picturesque
style and very becoming to some faces.
The toque turban Of fancy straw with one
rose and several leaves on the brim at
either side or with mass OF flowers at the
back Is decidedly new and very smart
The satin finished toque of medium size
with brlm coverel with soft rufhe Of lace
and with a black parrot at the left side IS
charmingly attractive, as are the light
cOlOred fancy straw bo Is I'm 1,of tt,o s,,,., lr
and large shapes trimmed with stiff feath-
ers ard quills. The picture hats Of goodly
SIZE also in the light shades and with
flowers to match and with bows of shaded
ribbon, the hats made of embroidered
batiste in white or tan embroidery. all are
eNqmsitely dainty and picturesque.

Scalp MASSAGE

The great trouble with much of the
scalp scalp massage that is done" re-
marked a veteran masseuse, ''is that too
much force is employed in the operation.
The tender young hairs are often pulled
out by the roots, and the scalp is bruised
by such heroic treatment. one Of the most
effective movement in massaglng the head
is accomplished by placing the finger tips
on either side Of the head, pushing the
scalp forward gently and making a circu-
lar rubbing motion. Repeat all over the
head for fifteen or twenty minutes every
night. and see what new beauty comes Ia
your hair. Another way 10 take the same
treatment IS to begin at the crown Of the
head and work out to the temples, ther
down TO the nape Of the neck"

must shun hot dishes, que cat your tvlst
and eggs perfectly cold ana drink cold
coffee OF milk After this chilly begin
ning TO the days banting, you must fol-
low it up with a luncheon of cold
meats, cold desserts, bread, cheese and
salad. Your dinner must still reek in
the ice boX-flsh mayannaise, a luke
warm outlet very lean. cold vegetables,
salads and ices, and no hot beverages.
Parisians claim that this is doing Won
ders for them and fair New Workers are
following suit in hopes Of attaining the
willowy styles that goes so we'll with

summer cottagers and submbanites. this
