HAIR MUST SUIT TOILETTE
Notable 10 the Revival Of tho "Ranq,"
Fashion Which IL Not Received

Nowadays it is found convenient to
change the style of hair dressing in or

that dress. There are some toilettes

and even be made to look absurd, II

The curled fringe, called the bang, I"
has been revived.
One reason for the justifiable revival
of the light-curled lovelocks that stray
about the forehead is the immense
popularity of the short center parting,
which is just little trying without
their softening influence; and another
Is the reinstatement Of the heavy plat
or the twisted drapery Of hair which
is used to frame the chignon. When
the plat weights the hair over the

A good many contrasts of coloring
and actual pattern, too, are notable in
the new foulards; an absolutely d.
verse design being often interviewer in
the one length of material, while sew
eral model gowns combine spotted
foulard and plain twill silk or fine face
cloth. So one has quite sufficient
and Parisian-precedent for bringing
together the plain and spotted blue
foulards, and, for further introducing

Here, however, Is an article that can
be readily made to advantage in the
penitentiary and 1t would be we'll to
have few thousand turned out.
The writer desires in the outset to
quite general, and that is, that the
split log drag is solution Of the good
roads problem. It is nothing of the
kind. 1t has it's uses and it's limita-
tons. Unfortunately, the man who
made it, and for which the country is
under obligations, overshoots the mark
in his slogan: Good Roads Without
Money The drag Is doing good work
1T is pity the inventor is not salts
hed to put it and leave it where it
belongs.
The drag is not only useful for earth
roads, but serves an excellent purpose
in keeping gravel roads in condition,
am roads to advantage.
Dragging should always be done in
or just following a rain. The surface
should be quite wet. The drag should
carry just enough weight so it will
smooth the surface and fill the ruts
without clogging the drag with an &C.
emulation of mud before it, It should
iron out and smooth the road with
out disturbing more than surface pro-
jectiOns. It's main use is to fill the
ruts and keep the center Of the road to
the proper crown SO the water will
readily find its way into the bitches.
The attempt to have the farmers VOL
unfairly drag the road by their farms,
or by cooperation have all the roads
dragged, will never work out satisfac-
torily. Some will respond and do their
duty, but the human hog must be
reckoned with-the one who Is su-
premely selfish, and takes pleasure in
overturning the good work Of another
sometimes just to be mean-pure cuss-
| edness. The writer was told of an in
cident that illustrated this perverse-
| ness. A coarse grained middle aged
man was heard to say: ''T'other day
! was coming back from town and seen
| old man Jones out with a road drag in
the rain-you'd thought he owned

road when me and Jake druv over It,
You wouldn't s'posed it had ever seen
drag. Jones was hot when he seen
us coming. He tore around like a
crazy man. We wouldn't row with an
old man. so We give him the ha! ha!
and went on
1t is no use to drag a road and then
cut it up again. Let all such work
as dragging be done and paid for and
make it a heavy fine for any one to
drive over dragged road until it is
dry enough so it will not cut up.
Gravel roads while new and com.
pacting under the traffic show deep
ruts along the wheel track and less
ones made by the feet of the horses.
When in this condition one or two
round trips with the drag will fill the
ruts and reform the surface and in do
ing so will move very little material.
The forward movement Of the drag
should be at an angle so that when

roads are too muddy to travel Hence,
the writer holds to the opinion above
expressed, that no earth road is en-
titled to be called good road, because
so much of the time it is positively
bad.
The extravagant claims that have
been made for the road drag are really
holding back the building of good
roads. Many have believed that all
that was required to have good roads
was to go up and down a streak of
mud once or twice, say presto" and
behold, good highway. This is sheer
nonsense. The loud acclaim of a
River to River Road" made good in
an hour or 50 is myth. This famous
road was greatly improved by the drag
ging, but it is not a good road, and
never will be until it is thoroughly
drained, properly graded and has a
