advantage of this period In which to

Through some tortuous method Of rea-

After the lawyers have decided upon
course Of action spelling delay It
will be up to the directors Of the Con-
solidated Gas Company to take action.
They will meet within forty.eight
hours, probably, to discuss the mattre.
Some OF the directors are In favor
OF immediate compliance with the law

thought of giving back any money to

that there is strong sentiment In the

with shoulder bands and yoke Of hand
some hand embroidery are effectively made
made up over white or self color. An at
tractlve model Of this type was the blue
chiffon of the cloth. and the sleeve of this
model deserves special mention, despite its
simplicity.
The foundation was a close fitting sleeve
OF chiffon plain down to a point just be-
low the elbow and from there to the wrist
tucked closely in tiny pin tucks. An
oversleeve of the chiffon, only a little
looser, reached to the point where the
pin tucks began and was laid in deep two
inch tucks quite close together. In this
way the sleeve was kept soft and with
a hint Of transparency, yet there was
thickness enough to cover the arm thor
oughly and avoid appearance Of unseason-
able thinness.
Crepe blouses in delightful designs are to
be found among the imported models and
are really the prettiest things OF their
kind. Some are very simple in line, but
deliberately hand-embroidered in self-tone.
Others are merely tucked or plated and
receive smartness from a chic guimpe or
cravat and sleeves. One very effective
blouse in a warm old crepe Of exquisite
tone is pictured among the sketches and
had for its only trimmings narrow lines
Of drawn stitching-little more than hem
stitch-forming a design on front, back and
sleeves.

HOW | MADE
MY HAIR GROW
Woman with Marvelously Beautiful
Hair Gives Simple Home PrescTip-
ton Which She Used with Most
Remarkable Results,

I was greatly troubled with dandruff
and falling hair. 1 tried many advertised
hair preparations and various prescrip-
tons, but they all signally failed; many
of them made my hair greasy, so 1t was
impossible TO comb II or do II up proper
ly. 1 think that many of the things l
tried were positively injurious, and from
my own experience I cannot too strongly
caution you against using preparations con-
talning wood alcohol and other poisonous
substances. l believe they injure the roots
of the hair. After my long list of failures
! finally found a simple prescription which
l used with most remarkable results, and
can unhesitatingly state that II is beyond
the most wonderful thing for the hair l
have ever seen. Many OF my friends have
also used It and obtained wonderful ef-
fects therefrom. II not only is a powerful
stimulant to the growth OF the hair, and
for the restoring gray hair TO its natural
color, but it Is equally good for removing
dandruff, giving the hair life and bril-
liancy, etc, and for the purpose OF keeping
the scalp in first-class conditions II also
makes the hair much easier 10 comb and
arrange in nice form. / have a friend who
used IL two months, ana during that time
II not only stopped the falling Of his hair
and wonderfully increased its growth, but
Il practically restored all his gray hair
to It's natural color. You can obtain the
ingredients for making this wonderful
preparation from almost any druggist
The prescription is as follows;
Bay Rum. 6 ozs Menthol crystals, one
half drachm; LavonR de Compose, 2 ozs,
To-Kalon perfume, ! TO 2 teaspoonfuls.
Apply night and morning; rub thor
oughly Into the scalp
Go TO your druggist and ask for an
eight-ounce bottle containing six ounces
OF bay rum also one-half drachm Of
Menthol crystals. and for a two-ounce
bottle OF Lavona de Composee. Mix the
ingredients yourself in your own home.
Add the Menthol crystals to the bay rum
and then pour Layona de Composed, and
add the To-Kalo perfume. Let Il stand
for one-half hour and II is ready for use.

what Women arc Doinr.

DR.. Dora Martin Of Oklahoma, national
organizer of the Anti-cigaret league. re-
Gently returned from Panama, where her
work was highly commended by govern
ment officials.
Susan B.. Anthony was a woman Of sim
pie taste in dress, but her close friends
knew of one pretty feminine vanity that
she always held to. She had a weakness
for silk stockings.
A striking example of a woman's busl-
ness ability is shown in the case of
Miss Frances Benjamin Johnson, pioneer
woman photographer in Washington. For
years she was practically the only photog-
rapher who had the patronage Of the
White House and the exclusive homes in
the capital.
Prof. Ellen II. Richards, who teaches
sanitary chemistry at the Boston School
OF Technology, says that her experience
in the west this summer, while she was
teaching at the California State Univer-
sity, showed her that western women are
more capable housekeepers h eastern
women,
A Pi%ttsburg man claims to hold the
record for dress-buttoning. His wife has
a row of fifty buttons down the back Of
her gown, and he says he has buttoned
them in forty-five seconds. Why not start
a movement for the purpose of buying
him a cap, or something?
Governor James H.. Brady of Idaho is In
favor Of woman suffrage and prohibition,
says William E. Curtis in a letter to the
Chicago Record-Herald. The governor re-
ports that all or the best women IN ldano
are active in political campaigns, working
through their clubs rather than through
the regular organizations.
Miss Ellen F. Walton is a Massachusetts
woman who has amassed q fortune In
mines; not that she has anything to do
with working them, but she deals In
stocks and has been unusually successful
She says that she decides as to the value
Of the mines and consequent stocks more
by intuition than anything else, and she
thinks that women have this sense more
clearly defined than men.
Mrs. Russell Sage began with the idea
of lettering the homes of the working
men with whom she was more or less con-
nected through her various enterprises
Her idea has grown until now the Russell
Sage Foundation homes committee has
been organized. A triangular forty-eight
acre plot at Rockaway will be used as tn,
site upon which will be erected the model
homes for ~workingmen. The model houses

most foods that come into the household
is an ordinary medicine dropper. a couple
OF wide-mouthed bottles-cream bottles will
do-a few strips Of termeric and litmus
paper. two or three chemicals, which can
be purchased in small quantities, and a lit
tie patience. This quality, SAYS Harper's
Bazaar for September, in an article on
Home Tests for Food Adulteration." Is
necessary, because while the tests are not
difficult they are sometimes a trifle te-
dious.
The fussiest experiment that can be tried
is the one Of detecting sahcylic acid in
AIMED fruits and vegetables, Mash to a
pulp two teaspoonfuls of the suspected
goods, add the same quantity Of water and
squeese through a clean white cloth. Put
a tablespoonful Of the resulting liquid in
a wide-mouthed bottle, together with an
eighth Of a ~teaspoonful Of cream Of tartar
and a teaspoonful and a half Of chloroform.
Mix with a splinter of wood, but don't
shake the bottle. Pour the liquid into a
tumbler. and in a few minutes the chloro-
form mixture will sink 70 the bottom
Then, with a medicine dropper, take out
as much as possible OF the clear chloro-
form, put In a clean bottle with two tea
spoonfuls OF water, add a bit of iron alum
as large as the head Of a pin. and shake
hard. When It has stood a few minutes
the chloroform will settle again, and II
there is a tinge Of purple in the upper
layer Of the liquid or in the line dividing
the two layers, It spells salicylic acid.
Hydrochloric acid is the constable tina
finds out copper in the bright green Of
pickles. canned peas, etc. Thirty drops o
the acid mixed with three tablespoonful
Of water and one OF tho pulp, are put u

boiling water on the stove. Drop a brlgh
new nail into the cup and let It remail
twenty minutes, the water In the outer pal

the bust the blouse fronts are held in
place by a lacing of the silk passing
through two big embroidered eyelets on
each side of the front and carelessly knot,
ted. This blouse also has cuffs or tiny un-
dersleeves Of net and vaIenciennes showing
slightly around the inner arm, but run
ming up at the outer arm to fill a out
outline in the silk, whose edges are held
in place by silk laclng on the same order
as that of the blouse front, only narrower.
Faile and bengaline are made up into
tailored blouses, though not so new as the
MORE. They are OF course handled In
somewhat severe tailored fashion. Indeed,
all OF these fancy silks lose by elaboration
in blouse models.
A good model in bengaline has the plated
shoulder and plain fronts Of the MORE
model already described but fastens
straigh up the middle front. with odd little
snail buttons and loops Of silk covered
cord trimming the front line and a plated
frin Of cream not falling along the edge
from throat to below the bust line. A
high collar OF the silk has a fold OF cream
net for finish and there is a narrow plait-
ing OF the net at the bottom Of the sleeves
which are long and close save for a full
puff let into the outer line from shoulder
to elbow.
And aprOpos Of sleeves. we are reminded
OF various costume blouses which show
sleeves in material differing from that Of
the blouse. For instance. with a coat and
skirt OF passiflors broadcloth upon which
a little self-tone DUH finish satin was in
troduced, was a blouse Of chiffon match
ing the cloth n made over sslf-tone satin.
The sleeves OF this blouse were OF the
satin. straight, slightly loose, gathered
into a deep wristband and relieved by frills
OF narrow creamy lace next the hand and
running up the outside OF the sleeve a
third OF the way to the elbow, with -four
closely set rows OF soutache framing them
and running around the satin wristband.
A band Of the satin with lines Of soutachs
bordered the tiny lace guimpe and there
was a satin girdle.
Chiffon plated in body and sleeves and
Omaha daily bee., 1909-09-19

And then there are the one tone blouses
Of hin stuff made up over self color and
relieved only about the throat and wrists
by creamy white. These blouses are usu-
ally braided, but one sees pretty models
trimmed in bands Of self color velvet or
molre or in cords or pipings Of satin.
Upon the manner in which the shallow
guimpe and corresponding cuffs or under
sleeves are handled often depends the or
iginality and cachet OF the blouse. and IL
would pay any woman who plans her own
clothes 10 go about and examine the i'm
ported models merely with a view to OBJ
tanning inspiration on this one point OF the
chic guimpe, cravat and sleeve finish. The
French have a genius for just such touches
and often obtain their effects in the sim
plest fashion 30 that the ideas may be
easily copied by the home dressmaker when
they are understood.
For very practical blouses to be worn
with tailored trotting costumes, the tub
models in linen. cotton. crepe, etc, are
now worn throughout the winter, but there
are good looking models in silk, too, rather
more Of these silk models in fact than
there have been in recent winter seasons.

considerable smartness on very simple

A. L.: Treat canker in the mouth with
pure alum, but rinse well from the teeth
as It affects the enamel.
II. s.: For a quick drying home sham
poo simply dissolve a teaspoonful of can
throx in a ~teacupful hot water. Pour on
the hair and rub well. Canthrox makes a
rich and plentiful lather that thoroughly
cleans the scalp, removes d~andruff, re-
lieves itching and irritation and leaves the
hair soft, bright and fluffy. Every article
mentioned in my recipes is carried in stock
