large pin.
So detrimental to the promenade
has the Directoire gown that clings
about the feet proved that hidden
plaits are being inserted at the hem
of such dresses, so that there is
plenty of swing and comfort per-
missible for the wearer.
Narrow patent leather belts in all
fashionable colors and white are
very smart. The combination white
and black patent leather belts are
also shown.
Many of the imported gowns are
trimmed with silk-covered cord that
is very effective and necessarily
somewhat exclusive, since it cannot
be bought in the shops.
The ankle-strap pump is likely to
have a wide vogue, particularly
among young women. 1t has an
alluring effect of youthfulness.
Fruit hat fad. They are really
very charming and have the ad-
vantage of not being perishable, as
the more easily fading flowers.
Calling cards for women are
nearly square. Should be engraved
in Old English or Roman block let
tiers.
Polka dot silk parasols for this
summer will be very smart.
There is nothing so delightfully."-
fetching as the poke bonnet with
the fringe in voluminous lacey
beauty. Beach says it's saucy and
captivating.

In their south window they nave

others gem studded, are surely ar

DON'T BE BALD
One OF Our Readers Tells How She OBJ
tanned a Marvellous Growth Of New
Hair by the Use of a Simple Home
Remedy After Hair Specialists
asd Tonics Had All Failed

1 had what most people would call
beautiful head of golden hair. priced
1t most highly, as I considered it my
chief attraction. Suddenly it began to
come out very rapidly, and at times
had intense itching of the scalp. Ply
sicians and hair specialists said my case
was one of dandruff germs, hair mi
crobes etc, but nothing that they gave
me did the slightest good. On the con-
trary, my hair seemed to come out even
faster. and L was now fearful lest 1
should become entirely bald In my
despair friend told me of an Ecuador
herb which he said would positively
grow hair on any head where the hair
roots were not entirely gone, and ne
said the natives of the country where
it grew were famous for their beautiful
long hair. Upon medical advice COM
bined this herb with Bay Rum and
Menthol Crystals and Immediately be-
gan it's use. In three applications 1T
entirely stopped the intense itching of
my scalp and in very short time it
not only stopped my falling hair, but 1
noticed an abundance or new halr COM
ing in. In less than one month my hair
was longer, thicker and more beautiful
than ever. All due to this marvellous
-nair growing herb. A lady to whom 1
gave the formula used it on her daugh-
ter, and she says IL maze ner mar grow
five inches in less than month. Doc
tors to whom l have shown 1t say it is
the only thing which will actually grow
new hair, therefore / think the public
ought to have 1t. At first thought /
would keep it a secret and sell the Sc
cret, but when / think how / suffered
and how badly I needed 1t. and how
hundreds of others must need 1t the
same as I did, feel ought to give it
to the world. snt4
Therefore, 1 authorize this paper to
publish the formula, which is as fol-
lows: Bay Rum or. Lavona de Com
posee OF. Menthol Crystals DIR. To-
Kalon Perfume one to two teaspoonfuls.
Ask your druggist for an OF. bottle
containing or of Bay Rum, then put
in the Menthol Crystals and the Per-
fume. Next add one-half of the bottle
of Lavona de Composee, let 1t stand six
to eight hoHrs and add the remainder
of the Lavona de Compose. Always
buy the Lavona de Compose in two
OF. sealed bottle, as this preparation
contains the juice of the Ecuador herb
mentioned above, and 1t loses its
strength If unsealed.
Apply the preparation night and
morning and rub we'll into the scalp. If
properly used 1t will soon produce most
astonishing results Be careful not to
get It on the face or any part of the
body where you do not want to produce
hair.
