Madame's Coiffure

The woman whose crowning glory is her hair in the hirsute line, isindeed lucky one, these days. It is an astonishing fact and quite an unaccountable one, but very few women possess a great quantity of hair. Of course one seldom finds this coiffure, for from that point of view one is made to think that the most glorious, long tresses are done into the fashion able styles of hair dressing, when, as a l hope I am not telling secrets but I am reminded of this by a pathetic incident that I recently heard of, about little girl of Brittany. She went to Paris to live and found employment with couple, who treated her very kindly. Her hair was Gas the hair of the women of Brit tany always is) beautiful and attracted the attention of madame, who was not so pleased. She insisted for sanitary req sons, as she said, upon the little girl hav- ing her hair cut. The child refused and cried about it, and after fifteen days the couple insisted so that she yielded. The poor little thing left the people, and reported her story to the chief of po- lice in Paris, who was powerless to do anything for her. No doubt madame's coiffure is greatly improved by the ad- dition of the childs hair, but think she was cruel and vain-dont you?

A Help For Insomnia

The suggestion of writer to one of the well-known newspapers in regard to using a cold water bag as an aid to sleep in warm weather is all very well for strong, healthy people-this kind seldom suffer from insomnia. But let the anaemic, neu- raigic, delicate person follow such sug- gestion and the result might be anything but good. On sultry night bag filled with ice used as a pillow, sounds very refreshing, to say the least of it, but the base of the head is a vital point of ones anatomy, and care should be taken in the use of ice packs. Applied to some other part of the body-for instance the ankles would seem to assure nothing but good and comforting results.

 HOSPITALITIES
RECEPTION AND DANCE GIVEN ON BOARD THE CoNNECTlCUT-GoV- ERNoR AND PREMIER OF WEST AUSTRALIA ATTEND.

Albany, West Australia, September 16.- There was reception and dance on board the battleship Connecticut today, given by the officers in return for the hospitality that they have received on shore. Among those present were the governor and the premier of West Aus tralia. There were about 100 other guests and the occasion was an unqualified suc- cess.
 There were sports on shore this after noon for the entertainment of the Amer ican seamen. In the tug-of-war contest an American team defeated team from the British cruiser Gibraltar, but team made up from the Albany police force defeated the Americans.
 The mayor of Albany gave a ball to- night to the American officers. Several of the American admirals and many offi- cers attended.
 The departure of the fleet for Manila has been postponed until September IS.

The Age Of Trained Nurses

Because of the demand by older women for training as nurses, the Young Wom- ens Christian association of New York city has opened an excellent course for trained attendants on the sick.
 This idea was instigated by the fact that in many of the hospitals the age limit for training nurses has been fixed at 35 years, and many capable, intelligent women over 35 years old believe they can take up the profession of nursing as well as younger women.
 The hospitals have arrived at the con- clusion that women who enter the train- ing services after they are 30 have by tests and experience proved unsuccessful nurses.
 In some hospitals the age limit has now been put to 8 years. The head nurses prefer to have applicants who are not over 2S years of age.
 It is said that 8 woman over 30 has to unlearn too much to learn anything in abort space of time. Her training along

Q INTEREST TO WOMEN
By DOLLY DALRYMPLE.

With this gown Mrs. Churchill wore a very large black silk hat lined with vel vet and trimmed with a black ostrich plume to fall gracefully on to the hair behind.
 In the trousseau of Mrs. Churchill were numerous lovely gowns, among which are described the following:
 chic little toilet is short walking costume in cream flannel with black stripes.
 This has a perfectly plain skirt trim med with buttons of the same flannel. The loose coat has a black satin turned down collar and revers of a lovely shade of pale blue tussore silk.
 A number of toilets ordered from one firm for the bride included the follow ing:
 A white sheath evening gown of chif- ion over soft satin, which is trimmed with real lace and has little baby puff sleeves.
 An empire tea gown of fine white voile over satin, trimmed with lace.
 An afternoon robe, the directoire style, of white voile.
 Three evening cloaks.
 One of these sortie-de-ba1s is of pink ninon, another is of pale green nfnon, and a third of fine white cloth.
 All are similar in design, of kimono style, and are made very long.
 Another handsome costume is of the Louis Quinze period in fine black-faced cloth, has a high-waisted draped skirt falling away from the figure, and coat trimmed with beautiful motifs of black and gold embroideries.
 The bride is an exceptionally fine nee dlewoman and she gave her personal at- tention to the details of her lingerie.

Honey For the Skin

The woman who is systematically op- posed to the use of lotions and creams for her skin will learn with interest that simple remedy for the color and tex ture of her complexion is the application of honey, which has been used with grat- flying results. It is rather sticky and not a very agreeable thing to use, but it is perfectly harmless. Buy it in the comb, and then strain and heat it, when it will become an easy to rub into the skin. There is no prescribed time for allowing it to remain, but when ready to remove use a soft cloth dipped in a lit tie warm water, to which has been added tincture of benzoin.

A Necessary Article When
 Travelling

"Car sickness is very prevalent thing, and few women escape the head ache and burning skin that often accom- panies a railway trip.

It quiets the nerves and soothes the throb ping head and alleviates the fever. If the travelling bag isn't large enough to hold a bottle of it, carry a small vinia- grette in the handbag
