THE ACCEPTANCE AND REJECTION

THE ACCEPTANCE AND REJECTION.
The substantial acceptance Of the
citys terms for subway extension by
the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company

street up through Lexington avenue In
Guiding the elevated extensions in The
Bronx. together with certain lines in
Brooklyn. Until the attitude of the Brook
lyn company is known In regard to these
lines. the prospect for rapid transit
facilities in Manhattan and The Bronx
will be in doubt. The Brooklyn com
pany once offered to build them or their
substantial equivalent, but on terms
which differed considerably from those
contained in the city's proposal.
Nevertheless. it will he earnestly hoped
that the city and the company will he

ties for the eastern part Of Manhattan

is ready to build. The city Ought to

40 you remember those a"lui
days when every woman IN

EssxzAR butante to the dowager,
- wore her hair as near like
every other woman's as her tortured
crown of glory permitted? Everybody
was wearing pompadours-the fashion
able woman would as soon nave
thought of adopting dress reform as
narting her tresses; 10, in comes the
part. and the pompadour is seen no
more.
But nowadays, praise be, when the
woman of fashion visits the hair
dresser she is pretty sure to say 10
him: "Oh, no, 1 don't care<to have
my hair dressed Ike that-or that
or that. Why, 'eoerybody is wearing
their hair that way!" And she usu-
ally departs with a couture that is In
dividual and becoming. because she
has insisted that it emphasize her good
points and modify her poor ones. Be
sides she is quite la mode, since that
is practically the sole demand ofpres-
ent couture s:yleEindiEiduality and
