How 70 Get Shaded Hair.


In London where the craze is for
shaded hair, the only satisfactory meth
Cd is sun drying. which shades the hair
nicely. The hair is wrung dry and
then pulled through an old straw hat,
which is placed on top Of the head.
There is a hole in the top of the hat,
and the hair is pulled up through the
hole 1t is spread around the brim of
the hat and dried i'm this manner in the
broiling sun. When there is no sun it
is dried in the wind.
Dark hair should be shaken perfect
~ dry, and it takes some minutes
longer for it to become dry. Dark hair
mats and stays damp and must be
shaken well to get out all the moisture.
Even then it should be dried over and
over again, for it has a way Of sudden
ly feeling damp. Each night dark hair
should be tossed about and shaken
again, for this is the only way to keep
It from becoming soggy.
Red hair auburn hair and hair that
is simply light in tone may be slightly
blended, but by no means colored. The
trouble with light hair in the summer
is that it is apt to grow drab And the
hair experts will tell you that it is al
most necessary to blond it just a very
little. This means nothing more than
the adding of little bit of henna tea
to the rinsing water. But even this is
a matter of personal preference. 1t is
not at all necessary to do it, Light
hair will keep its duffiness and its tone
much longer than dark hair with the
same amount of treatment.

The fashion Of wearing the rundown
embroidered linen collar has created a
demand for a proper receptacle for
them, and this comes in the form Of
book covers about fifteen inches long
and six inches wide These are cover
ed on the outside with cretonne or silk
and on the inside with a sheet of per-
fumed cotton, over which is white lin
en-. Straps of ribbon are sewed across
the covers about three inches from Ell
Their end, and through these the ends
of the collars are slipped. This keeps
them perfectly fiat and in a much more
convenient form than collar box. The
covers fold together and tie with rib
bon, giving a perfectly fiat case that
may be easily packed.

CHAPTER XI.

CdAIl Al.
~HE Hon. Fltzroy Bagley had
every reason to feel satisfied
with himself. His affalre de
occur with the senator's
daughterwas progressing more smooth
| " than ever, and nothing now seemed
likely to interfere with his carefully
prepared plans to capture an American
helress. The interview with Kate Rob-
erts in the library, so awkwardly dis
turbed by Jefferson's unexpected intru-
sion, had been followed by other inter-
views more secret and more successful,
and the plausible secretary had con-
trived so well to persuade the girl that
he really thought the world of her and
that a brilliant future awaited her as
his wife that 1t was not long before
he found her In a mood to refuse him
nothing.
Bagley urged immediate marriage
He insinuated that Jefferson had treat
ed her shamefully and that she owed 1t
to herself to show the world that there
were other men as good as the one who
had tilted her. He argued that in view
Of the senator being bent on the match
with Ryders son II would be worse
than useless for him (Bagley) to make
formal application for her hand, so,
as he explained, the only thing which
remained was a runaway marriage.
Confronted with the fat accompli,
Papa Roberts would bow to the inev-
table They could get married quietly
in town. go away for a short trip, and
when the senator had got over his first
disappointment they would be well
coined back with open arms.
Kate listened willingly enough to this
specious reasoning. I'm her heart she
was piqued at Jefersons Indifference,
and she was foolish enough to really
believe that this marriage with a Brit
fish nobleman. twice removed, would
be i'm the nature of triumph over
him. Besides, this project Of an elope-
mcnt appealed strangely to her frivol-
BUS Imagination; it put her i'm the same
flasS as all her favorite novel heroines.
And it would be capital fun.
Meantime Senator Roberts, in bliss
full ignorance of this little plot against
his domestic peace, was growing i'm
patient, and he approached his friend
Ryder once more on the subject of his
son jefferson. The young man, he
said, had been back from Europe some
time. He insisted on knowing what
his attitude was toward his daughter.
If they were engaged to be married,
he said there should be a public an
nouncement Of the fact. 1t was unfair
to him and slight to his daughter TO
let matters hang fire i'm this unsatisfac-
,ory way. and he limited that both him

self and his daughter might demand
their passports from the Ryder man
sion unless some explanation were
forthcoming.
Ryder was in a quandary. He had
no wish to quarrel with his useful
Washington ally. He recognized the
rcasonableness of his complaint. Yet
what could he do? Much as he him
self desired the marriage, his son was
obstinate and showed little inclination
to settle down. He even limited at at
fractions in another quarter. He did
not tell the senator of his recent inter-
view with his son when the latter
made it very plain that the marriage
could never take place. Ryder senior
had his own reasons for wishing to
temporize. 1t was quite possible that
Jefferson might change his mind and
abandon his idea of going abroad, and
he suggested to the senator that per-
haps if he, the senator, made the en-
gagement public through the newspa-
pers it might have the salutary effect
Of forcing his sons hand.
SO few mornings later there ap-
peared among the society notes in sew
eral of the New York papers this para
graph:
The engagement is announced of Miss
Katherine Roberts, only daughter of Sem
ator Roberts Of Wisconsin, to Jefferson
Ryder, son of Mr.. John Burkett Ryder.

Afternoon Modes.

An afternoon gown must be long,
and, while exaggerated trains are not
worn, there must be a graceful and
becoming sweep Of the material. AS
the season advances the empire be-
comes more and more disguised, while
the severely plain princess model has
practically disappeared although this
does not mean that the one piece frock
is out of favor-far from 1t. 1t has
been proved far more satisfactory In
dealing with delicate materials to join
the bodice and skirt together by band
Of embroidery or lace, even though 1t
is to be hidden by ribbon girdle.

Old Kentucky Home Hymn.

A new hymn composed by the Rev.

sung to the air Of "My Old kentucky

idea worked in the words is that the
gospel should be carried to every cor

was sung as a solo, the congregation
joined enthusiastically In the chorus.

Mr.. Johnson made reference 10 hls
pleasure at being the guest of the fur
niture dealers and also at being again
in Wilmington. He spoke OF the I'M
developed OF the state, which
are ~undeveloped on account OF the dis
~criminative freight rates that affect
this state which eliminates any great
city in the state. Wilmington, he de-
clared, by having water courses, offers
the relief needed and Wilmington peo-
pie, backed by the state, should devel-
op their water power, so that water
competition could be put against the
railroads. He said relief had not come
because state officials had been elected
who were not in sympathy with the
movement, and the railroad commission
was certainly a railroad commission
because in all the years OF its existence
ut had never undertaken to reduce
freight rates, the very purpose for
which it was created. What We want in
North Carolina is more business men

to consider the verdict, and at IL o.

The attorneys for the defense hav-

handed down in this county under the
new law. He sentenced Captain Forest
to the penitentiary, there TO remain at
the will and pleasure of the Governor
of the State of oregon, for period of
from one to fiftee nyears and fined him
In the sum of $50 and wit 1nthe formal
announcement the great issue was set
tied in so far as this court and county
are concerned.
Captain Forest and his counsel were
the recipients of congratulations on all
sides after the final word was spoken
from the bench and it is the general
opinion about the city that the whole
ease was handled with Justice ani full
eireumspection under the law, and that
every demand for mercy was met in
the test Of the Judgment.
Sheriff NJ. r. Pomeroy will leave for
Salem with Captain Forest on the ev-

accompanied to the capital by Mrs.
Forest and her son, both Of whom have

endure too long a separation, and that
their remaining years may pass in
peace and comfort undisturbed by the
bitterness of the grave incident of last
December.
Judge Mcbride adjourned the term
yesterday and will return here some
time in May to dispose of certain dated
matters. He left last evening for his
home, and tomorrow will open court
