if you live in Topeka, Kas.; but they
say IT is going out. In fact. the word
comes from tLe east thdt at The Casino
IN Newport this summer very few POM
paGOurs have been seen The part has
reappeared in the couture OF the FASH
lonable woman, either in the middle or
at the side, and the hair is pulled and
cOEnDed down over the ears in the
fashion made popular a few years ago
by Cleo de Merode, and done low on
the neck Sometimes it is waved and
sometimes 1t is worn smoothly; Ii may
De puueQ SO much that it is really little
different from the parted oompadour
or 1t may be quite fat But anyway
the pompadour seems to be doomed.
Well. it is picturesque and capable OF
so many variations that it may be
arranged to suit almost any face, but
IL mas grown Woefully common. Every
girl you've met for the past three years
has had her back hair brushed up
smoothly and fastened tightly AND a
frowsley mop all over her forehead and
the top OF her head. There is a certain
quaint charm and quiet distinction
ABOUT the part, and after the messy"
looking and exaggerated style of hair
been familiar it is really a refreshing
change. 1t seems to make a woman
look younger and sweeter and more
Womanly. someway.
1t. is not likely, however, that the new
style will immed tely suDplant the old
out here, at least, because it has so far
scarcely been seen at all. In the east,
TOO, there are almost as many pompa-
dours as ever. All the "widows'' in
The RunaWayS," the new musical
comedy al the Casino, wear huge POM
padours. and recent photographs of
professional beauties and society wo-
men show the same arrangement. Miss
Alice Roosevelt is one of the young
women to adopt the part, as her latest
portrait shows
Some English woman, who evidently
has never heard of what happened to
the bulIfrog, who hadn't nothin' else
70 do. has written a book on How to
Choose Husband. There NAV be a
demand for such a volume in England.
although it would be a most disloyai
American who wouldn't have enough

that they would know what To do

VICE But just to show what rot finds
pupllsner and sale, some excerpts
from the Englishwoman's book are
given:
A husband should be chosen for his
lovable qualities and his powers of
aftection, and for these reasons alone
Girls should refuse at all hazards the
man who proposes at dance Often
in the glamour of a ballroom men say
what they wish unsaid in the morning.

to be done in washing up, carving
baskets, and opening bottles. 1t would
be quite safe to accept a proposal made
at one, especially if made before
luncheon.
Do not marry a man who writes ideal
letters. He is invariably led away by
his imagination.

DO not marry a man who proposes

Don't put an every day man on a

Choose man without regard to his

1t is soothing to note, observes the
Kansas City Star editorially, that the
statute of limitations has been invoked
against the cultivation among fashion
able society girls of tanned complex
ions by going around in the sun with
out any covering on their heads. The
fad was absurd and ridiculous or it
would never have become popular.
Now it has been pronounced obsolete
at Newport, where it has been discov-
cred that many young women have
actually ruined their compilations by
