MADE A PERSONAL APPEAL
Supplanted Lsundreas Successful In
Effort to Retain Patronage Of
Duke of the A5ruzxi.

AT Salsomsggiore. says writer In
McClure's, there was laundress who
had always enjoyed the patronage OF
the. Duke of the Abruzzi whenever he
came there to take the cure on his re-
turn from one of his expeditions. The
duke of course knew nothing about
this matter, which was attended to
by his chauffeur-valet. Now, for some
reason, of which | am ignorant, the
servant had taken notion to change
laundresses; hence great humiliation
on the part of the good little woman,
who naturally priced her celebrated
patron. What was she to do? She
wanted to get an explanation of the
matter, at any rate; SO one day she
placed herself on the road where the

CARING FOR INVALID'S HAIR
some Things That Nurse or Friend
OF Patient Should BE Sure to
Keep In Mind.

Long hair should be divided into
TWO plaits the first day of an illness.
This makes combing easier on patient
and nurse.
In high fever an Ice cap Ia equally
oenencial to the hair and to tempera-
ture.
When patient likes to have her
head rubbed, IL bit OF vaseline is put
on tips of fingers 1t will keep the hair
from getting dry and brittle. This
must be carefully done IL bed linen
is not to suffer.
Where hair has matted In illness,
do not attack 1t with a comb or pull
1t apart. Thread with the fingers, be-
ginning at the ends of hair and work.
Ing, up. Shake the hair often.
Do little at a time. and stop at
first signs of exhaustion in the patient.
Hair combing In weakened state
has been known to cause collapse.
With convalescence begin a course
of treatment for the hair. This should
be professional, but much can be done
at home with yaseline rubbed well
into the scalp or a good tonic, such
as bay rum and quinine. or crude pa,
troleum.
Only permit hair to be cut as a last
resort. 1t is rarely done now even
after typhoid fever. Do not be alarmed
at increasing thinness. Keep up mas
sage. and new hair will quickly fol-
low.
Hair after illness splits badly. A
thorough smuggling is one of the first
things to do.
AS hair is delicate and brittle after
Illness. avoid overheating with false
hair. Wear 1t only when necessary
If you wish your scalp to quickly re.
gain a normal, healthy condition.

White serge is still in high favor;

while wooden materials are loose

The summer coat is ornamented
with marine collar or with long re-

Metal and tortoiseshell buttons are
used on the summer coat and huge
pockets are not lacking.

EASY ADJUSTMENT OF FRILLS
Device That Goes Far Toward Ma
king Life Easier Is Described
Below.

Among the latest ideas for making
life easier are frills ready to be ad-
1usted. with a few minutes work, to
the underciothing or the flap OF a
blouse or pillow cases
These frills can be had in various
designs, some of them the material
hemstitched or with lines of drawn
work edged with torchon lace; others
with tiny lines of beading, again fin
tshed with embroidery or feather
stitching.
For infants clothes these Fittings
come with tiny edges, and there are
quiet openwork effects on heavy linen
1sed for pillow slips,
The method of adjusting Is to buy
them, gathered into a featherstitched
band, or one edge of the material has
q loosely woven thread, and all the
worker need do Is to draw the thread
TO the desired fulness.
