ANOTHER WONDER OF SCIENCE.
Biology has Proved that DandruR Is
Caused by q Germ.

Science is DOING wonders these days in
medicine as well as in mechanics. Since
Adam lived. the human race a been
troubled with dandruff. for which nc hair
preparation has heretofore proved a sue
cessful cure until Newbro's Herpicide was
put on the market. 1t is a scientific prep
aration that kills the germ that makes
dandruff or scurf by digging into the
scalp to get at the root of the hair, where
1t saps the vitality; causing itching scalp,
falling hair, and finally badness. With
out dandruf hair must grow luxuriantly.
1t is h only destroyer of dandruf.

Dutch Neck-Einishinos.

A great many shirtwaists and shirt
waist suits are made with the round
or Dutch neck. The neck is finished
with a cording or with little fril1 or
ruff1e. This is shirred around the
throat and the waist is trimmed to
match. For day wear these necks are
never low enough to show the throat,
but the whole of the neck is exposed.
The fastening is quite simple, consist
ing of a little pearl button at the back
and the effect is charmingly girlish-
For evening the neck can be a little
rounGar and slightly more inclined to
reveal the lines of the throat and neck.
but they should not by any means be
low With this style of neck the neck
lace, be it fur or feathers, or be it
made of chiffon ruff1es, is necessity,
and from the minute the first fall
breezes blow it should be worn. The
round neck in the street is only pretty
in midsummer, not by any means in
the fall and winter. The best finish
is little frill of lace or a narrow mus
lin ruffle, and If the gown be very nice
the lace frill can be made of valen-
ciennes lace or of any other fashion
able lace, but the finish must be SIM
pie.

Gardenias are the chosen flowers for

Short crepes of wonderful color and

Bracelets are fashionable again, the

Little girls are wearing dainty white

Such a pretty crepe de chine blouse

and green buds.
Sables are particularly good with
the brown tones so much affected IN
this winters dress.

Dainty Dressing Gown.

A dainty dressing gown is a neces-
sity for a woman of taste; it may be
quite charming and elegant without
losing its useful character. There was
a time when there was little choice
between the frivolous peignOir and the
uncompromisingl hideous or gaudy
striped garment, but in these days of
beautiful and inexpensive fabrics
there is no excuse for anyone to wear
unbecoming colors. Something serv-
iceable" means to many people
chiefly an absence of color. A deep,
rich shade, however, looks clean and
fresh much longer than a nondescript
or dingy hue. The prevailing color of
the bedroom should be taken into con-
si6eration when choosing a dressing
gown. 1t is no more trouble to choose
the right shade and secure a harmony
in your room. A simple gown of fine
serge or amazon cloth, with a border
of galloon, is pretty and is very easily
made.

Wells of the Moment.

The newest veil is called the MEL
ba," and looks more like an exquisite
lace 1ounce than a veil. 1t is deep
and wide and circular, and made most
ly of Chantilly lace, with its fiat, silky
mesh and graceful patterns.
Some of them have the pattern of
the edge repeated, in a smaller way,
at the top of the f1ounce, just where
it lies over the brim of the hat.
Chiffon veils-some of them-have
scalloped edges and are appliqued
with small velvet daisies But their
charm is the way they pull up on a
drawing string and tie snugly around
or over the crown.
Some of the prettiest automobile
wells are double-a medium shade,
with lighter shade over it, and join
ed together at the top.
Anoher double veil has the inner veil
embroidered in large dots and shirred
up to fit somewhat under the chin,
while the outer veil flows free.
A curious trick-it's new, too-is to
have the wells made of changeable
stuffs. The second color doesn't show
definitely, but gives a little simmer
ing beauty note that is fascinating.

Linoerie BIouseS.

Lingerie blouses are to be worn tie
winter through with tailored coats and
skirts They are really Indispensable,
for they are thin, taking up no room,
and when mussed water and hot iron
restore them to an immaculate cond1
ton. They are, however, as expensive
as the more elaborate silk and crepe
bodices, as a greater number of them
are required; but they are always
fresh and spotless, and thus delight
the dainty woman. In cut they are al
most facsimiles of those worn during
the summer, save that heavier laceS
are used, cIuny, guipure and the lately
revived crepon being favorites. These
1aces are used as insertion rather than
in appliques, and in many of these
blouses the lace is also elaborately en-
broidered in floral designs in plumetis
stitch One such blouse has its crepon
lace embroidered across the front in
chrysanthemums.

Wraps and Hats.

In wraps the cape is far and away
the favorite. Many and various are
the modes and models in these, from
the military cape, such as Uncle
Sans officers carry, to the draped
shawl production that is lined with
quilted and padded satin and covered
with costly lace The cape slips on
so easily over the shoulders and rests
so tenderly on the ilmiest and fiuf-
fest of sleeves, that the smart girl
has already elected it as her favorite
wrap for all occasions.
Hats and wraps, too, absorb an ap-
preciab1e amount of fashionable at
tention, for over here we have not
altogether taken up the English fash
ion of dispensing with a hat for even

Pleasing Styles in Coats.

The short basque coats and coats o.
moderate hip length will be found
more generally becoming than the red
ingotes, and while not SO new, are
quite as fashionable. The short basque
coats are, of course, fitted snugly at
the waist and often belted or girdled !;
but though the general tendency. is
toward the coat fitted closely at back
and sides if not in front, the sack coat
has not disappeared and loosely fall
ing coat models are numerous

Hood for Small Child.

Fashions for the wee ones are as
exaggerated and varied as those of
their elders. In hoods there is an
endless variety. An odd but pretty
model is white fail1e, and it may be
readily copied at home. One piece of
silk makes the hood, and where it
joins back forms a decided point on

CHARMING New Collar.

Here's the dearest little new collar
just out-meant for light silk blouse
It's not more than two or three inches
deep and fits just around the turn
of the throat. But the way it's made

and white letters. 1t is frills and fluff
and tiny hints of roses and bits OF
the sheerest laces Joined together like
fairy work.

Pretty Fancy in RIouses.

New blouses in Paris are made OF
alternate rows of ribbon and Russian
lace. The ribbon used is only half
the width of the lace employed. the
latter being of mixed colorings. These
are worn with skirts, the color OF
which matches the ribbon or the lace,
and are worn over fitting silk under
bodices or corset covers without yokes
or sleeves.

Cheap Seed,

From now on till planting time in
the spring farmers will be purchasing
seeds for their various crops next
year. 1t is a lamentabIe fact that the
ordinary farmer does not purchase
the best seed he. can obtain, but
chooses low grade seed at a low
price. 1t would be false economy to
use poor seed even if it were a gift.
Worse still is it to take chances on
old seed, that which was left over
from last year Some of this loses
its terminating power very quickly.
1t is claimed that the amount of
imperfectly cleaned seed on the mar
ket is very great, and this proportion
is very much greater than usual after
bad years. Not only is the question
of germinability at stake, but, what is
worse, the presence of weed seeds
tnat, once sown, will cost the farmer
dearly in the efforts he must put forth
to get rid of them. 1t will pay the
farmer to scrutinize his seed pur-
chased very closely.
