Few parents realize how many es-
Unable lives have been embittered
and social and business success pre-
vented by serious skin affections
which so often result from the neglect
OF minor eruptions in infancy and
childhood. With but little care and
the use of the proper emollients, baby's
sllin and hair may be preserved, puri-
fed and beautihed, minor erupuons
prevented from becoming chronic and
torturing, disfiguring rashes, itchings,
irritations and chafings dispelled

sweet, so speedily effective as the con-

when necessary. by Cuticura Ointment.

INFECTION IN THE PRISON
Peculiarly Favorable Field There for
the Spread Of the Scourge
Of tuberculosis.

Only twenty.one prisons in fifteen
states and territories have provided
special places for the treatment Of
their tuberculosis prisoners. These in
stitutions can accommodate, however,
only 500 patients. In threefourths of
the major prisons and in practically
all the iails of the country the tuber-
culous prisoner is allowed freely TO
infect his fellow prisoners. very few
restrictions being placed upon his
habits When the congregate mode Of
prison life is considered, the danger Of
infection becomes greater than In the
general population New York and
Massachusetts are the only states
where any systematic attempt has
been made 20 transfer all tuberculous
prisoners to one central institution.
The largest prison tuberculosis hospl.
tai is IN Manila. where accommoda-
tions for 200 prisoners are provided.
The next largest IS Clinton prison hos
pital in New York. which provides for

The Swan-LIke Throat.

This is to be a great season for col
larless frocks.
But one pretty neck is often harder
to acquire than the dozens of chemis-
cites we may have done away with.
A good neck depends much upon the
general health, but considerable may
be done that is OF direct benefit.
Many an otherwise lovely neck is
ruined by an awkward poise Of the
head. The best cure for this is to sit
or walk each day with a book on
the head. Do not stiffen the muscles
to hold this weight. Manage it by
balancing.
Thinness OF the neck should be an
easy fault to overcome.
Plenty OF sleep and an abundance of
milk, with raw eggs beaten up in It.
should help considerably.
The neck should be washed we'll
every night with warm water, followed
by a cold spray and massaged after
ward with a cold cream.

There seems to be something ire
sistibly attractive to women in the
fluffy. nodding plumes of the ostrich,
and II this great bird could not be
bred on ostrich farms his race would
become extinct. Like many another
wearer OF fine plumage. the goddess OF
fashion would pursue him to the
death.
Although good ostrich plumes are
as costly as ever. they are in wider
demand than in all the history OF mil
linery. Everyone wants plumes, and
other ostrich feathers. in all the va,
ried beautiful mountings which the
artists make them up.
There is a wonderful variety TO
choose from. The Introduction of
willow" pumes, that IS those hav-
ing the flues heightened by tying on
extra pieces. has brought out all sorts
OF color combinations and plumes Of
long sweeping fibers. They are very
beautiful but not as practical as the
unpieced plumes. In buying high
priced ostrich feathers the French
plumes with long, slightly curled hues
are by far the best investment. They
Anadarko daily democrat. [volume] (Anadarko, Oklahoma) 1908-191?, 1910-09-02

can be cleaned and recurled at a com
paratively small outlay and may be
bought on a guarantee from the dealer
that they will stand wear. Moisture
doesn't do them any permanent harm.
On the other hand the willow plume
cannot be guaranteed to wear Those
in black are especially fragile. some
thing in the dye causes them to come
united or to break off when the air
is damp. The white and light colors
wear better than black.
Whom one does not need to think or
economy there are beautiful effects to
be wrought out by using plumes with
pieced fiues, which are we'll worth
the price.
Three fall hats are illustrated here
showing the simplicity and richness
of ostrich used for trimming. They
are mounted in groups Of three or
more toward the back of the hat as a
rule. Nothing else is needed on the
shape and the addition of a band and
bow about the crown is a matter OF
choice, for a shape bearing full tuft
OF plumes is amply trimmed.
