! The thousands Of discouraged people
who dread the approach Of summer
because they have hay fever and can
not find any relief from it, will read
with interest and gratitude the fol-
lowing statement from Helen S. Will
liams, of Mansfield, Mass.
For q years, from the month Of
August until heavy FROST have been
afflicted with hay fever, growing worse
and worse each year, until Of late
years | was unable TO attend TO my
work during that period.
Last summer | fortunately gave
Hyomei a trial, and / am happy to say
that it entirely cured me, and have
had no occurrence of the disease
since"
This letter is only one Of many that
have come to the proprietors of Hyo-
mel, and the results following this
treatment have been so remarkable
that it is proposed at the annual con-
vention of hay fever sufferers to re-
commend Hyomel.
BY breathing the germ-killing and
healing balsams of Hyomei, anyone
can have at any moment of the day,
either in their home or Office, climate
like that Of the White Mountains.
The complete outfit costs but ell,
extra BOTTLES 80 cents. The Red Cross
Drug Store agrees to refund the money
to any hay fever sufferer who uses
Hyomei without benefit.

A Method That Gives Results That
Defy Climatic Conditions.
Here is one woman's secret method
of curling her hair so that it remains
fluffy and wavy in spite Of any climate
Even humidity OF salt air, 1t Is claimed,
does not affect hair so treated.
The method consists In the use Of a
simple egg wash and the doing up Of
the hair IN a peculiar manner before
rolling it around the kid rollers.
The white Of one egg Is stirred slight
~, but not beaten or separated in any
way. This liquid is then diluted with
a little water, preferably rose water, al
though soft water of any sort may be
used, with a few drops Of any favorite
perfume. 70 give the hair n delicate
o1or. One-thlrd as much water as
white Of an egg are the proportions Civ
en-, and this should be kept In small,
wide mouthed Jar upon ice, if possible,
where it viii keep for a week or until
Il is all used. When not In use the kid
rollers should be kept in a sachet, rath-
er strongly scented.
At night the hair that is to be waved
IS parted from the back hair and the
latter rolled up out Of the way. Mols-
ten a comb repeatedly and draw II
through the hair to be curled until it is
thoroughly damp, then divide the hair
into strands, and before winding each
strand around the curler twist it round
ana round tightly. then roll It round
and round the curler. 1t is the first
twisting before wrapping it around the
curler that makes the peculiar fufines:
that is so much desired. The wrapping
It around the kid roller makes 1t wave
and the egg wash causes it to retaiI

shelf which is at least six inches deep.
Now, the lower half can be divided

things. The upper half Of the cupboard
can be divided into as many or as few

nOis-she Travelled in Europe with her
warm friend and schoolmate, Miss FL
len Starr. They visited most &C the
cities Of the continent, and in each they
made a special study Of the condition
Of districts stricken by poverty.
When they sailed for home they had
made up their minds to introduce the
social settlement idea in the west and
devote their lives to the work. From
this incentive Hull House came into
being. founded by Miss Addams and
Miss Starr.
Before entering upon the great work
Of her life, however, Miss Addams de-
cided to make a sojourn to Philadel-
phia in order to study the conditions
and charitable work which she should
do in Chicago.
The next year. in 1889, the social set
tlement of Hull House was opened in
the Nineteenth ward Of Chicago. said
to be the worst municipal district in
the world.
In it are massed people of nearly ev-
cry country on the globe, most Of
whom live in squalor and depravity.
Fifty thousand men, women and chill
dren call the ward home.
In any event, the district was bad
enough to suit Miss Adams and Miss
Starr, and there they have been work
ing ever since and with a success that
is remarkable.
How far famed Hull House really is
may be judged from a single incident.
At the time of the Paris exposition
Miss Adams was in France trying to
obtain information as to the status of
social settlements in Europe.
One day she was talking with a cele-
brated sociologist, but the word "set-
tIement' seemed unknown 70 him. As
clearly as she could she explained its
spirits and aims, and then he under
stood.
"Oh, yes" he exclaimed, certainly.
Madam means a Hull House."-Phila-

When one realizes the difficulties Of
successful playwrting and the fact
that the number Of women who have
written for the stage can almost be
counted upon the fingers Of one hand
the success achieved in this line by
Mrs. Lottie Blair Parker is quite re-
markable. Coming of a family large
ly imbued with Puritanical prejudices
against the playhouse and all that per-
tains to it, Mrs. Parker's plays appeal
strongly to persons of that type. as
they deal with simple. natural subjects
and people, depicting the wholesome
and humorous aspects OF life rather
than its sophisticated side. Way
