ALL ARE WEARING CROSSES.
Pretty Custom That Has Been Re-
stored to Favor.

A generation ago nearly every WON
an possessed q small cross in gold, in
jewels. or in onyx and gold, as a piece
Of jewelry. 1t was worn as q brooch,
or as a pendant to a chain.
It was substituted in after years by
the locket, which has held sway in
every metal and in all kinds Of jewels,
precious and semiprecious.
Now crosses are back in fashion
They are slender and are not OF the
Maltese variety which were In such
dominant fashion for while.
Often 1t Is only a gold wire, holding
diamond or vivid semiprecious stones.
The pale aquamarine is also favorite
stone to use.
Others are in plain gold with the
monogram and often the date OF the
gift engraved at back.
As there has been such a wide re-
turn to the black and gold enameled
bracelet Of our grandmothers. the
black and gold enameled cross to
match has come back into fashion.

TAKE TIME TO BE DAINTY.
Little Touches Are the Main Point OF
Attractlveness.

Put ribbons through my corset COW
ers? Why, It takes too long. can't
spare that much time In the morning"
This was the answer Of girl who
was envying the dainty appearance OF
another girl, whose blue silk ribbons
in her corset cover were glimpsed
through her sheer shirtwaists.
The girl who complained she hadn't
time to be dainty probably devoted
hours to trifes that came to naught.
She possibly gossiped for Is minutes
here and there all through the day In q
manner that was not Of advantage to
herself or her listener.
She probably always found time Tor
lettering or reading some foolish book.
When girl begins to think that the
cost of daintiness Is too high she 10
beginning to lose her first point OF
attractiveness.
1t is her right to be sweetly dressed,
and she could so organize her life into
the proper channel that she could
find a quarter of an hour to give her.
self the chance to have nice things.
This ribbon in a corset cover is only
one Of the many little instances to
show that girl is living up to all the
womanliness in her. She must take
time to be dainty.

Tonic for an Oily Scalp.

The best cure for an oily scalp is
vigorous massage. For the first few
days the oily condition will seem to
be more excessive, but when the scalp
is luosened up and the circulation re-
stored, the natural oils will be more
evenly distributed. Below is a tonic
which viii strengthen the roots, but
massage is more important:
Cologne. eight ounces; tincture oil
cantharides, one ounce; oil Of Eng
Iish lavender. one-half dram; oil OF
rosemary, one-hAf dram.

Marrow Ties.

Neckwear is interesting to talk
about, for there is always a new style
or finishing touch which Is quite
worthy of consideration. There are
narrow ties of velvet ribbon or striped
taffeta, made into a smart bow in front
with ends several inches long. finished
with a gold tassel or with fringe OF
coolred beads. Another new fad is
a band Of tiny beads knitted into a de-
sign and decorated with fringe; this
barbaric necktie passes once around
the neck and ties in front in a loose
knot over q jabot.

bling Of the earthquake and a series
of tremendous explosions that make
the very earth beneath him tremble.
From the apex Of the gigantic noun
tain in the background huge clouds OF
smoke burst forth, followed by a cata-
clysm OF real fire and lava; the mon
ster buildings fall with a loud crash,
while the hundreds of human beings
fee to points Of safety from the awful
scene of carnage and destruction.
The smoke has barely cleared away
above the fallen city when the second

tiful Manhattan Beach fireworks. In
this marvellous pyrotechnic programme
Is shown all the latest novelties In
