THE DAILY CHIT-CHAT.
By Ruth Cameron.

Things are no better than they were
and I haven't done anything yet. I'm
just kind of waiting for something to turn
up
So q friend, who has long been dissat-
her, wrote me in answer to query as
to whether she had taken any steps
toward lettering them.
What a common attitude she described!
How many dissatisfied, restless people we
meet everywhere. who continually fret
and chafe against the conditions that
surround them, but never take any de-
cisive steps toward changing these con-
ditions. They are always vaguely hop
ing. like Micawber, that something will
turn up to help Them, without any dis
tasteful activity on their own parts.
Hope, you remember, was the good
fairy who came last out of Pandora
box, comforted and promised her help
against all the evils that foolish little
body had set free. But sometimes won
der II this good fairy Hope did not-in
true fairy story fashion-have bad twin
brother among the evil spirits.
There are few things more beautiful
than the right kind of hope-the hope
believes in ultimate success, no matter
how dark the outlook or how heavy the
odds against him.
There are few things more harmful than
the wrong kind of hope-the fiabby. fold
ed hands hope, that makes a man con.
tinually procrastinate any effort, and
cheats him with the foolish expectation
that some turn of circumstances, some
stroke of luck, will surely end his mis-.
fortunes and bring him everything he
wants.
There was once q young man in the
rewNuoaoer business who graduated from
ono good position into another. In the
space OF FIVE years he made four steps
upward In his profession. and finally
graduated from 1t into an excellent posi-
ton In safer and more remunerative
work.
All the men who knew him said, Ibid

a cloth with little Danderine and
carefully draw it through your hair,
taking one small strand at time.
This will cleanse the hair OF dust,
dirt and excessive oil and in just a
few moments you have doubled the
beauty of your hair.
A delightful surprise awaits, par
ticularly those who have been care
less, whose hair has been neglected
or is scraggy, faded, dry, brittle OF
thin. Besides identifying the hair.
Danderine dissolves every particle of
dandruff; cleanses, purifes and invig-
crates the scalp, forever stopping
itching and falling hair.
Try as you will, you cannot find
any dandruff or a loose or falling
hair and your scalp will never itch,
but what will please you most will be
after a few weeks use of Danderine,
when you will actually see new hair
fine and downy at first-yes-but
really new hair sprouting all over the
scalp. II you care for pretty, soft
hair, and lots of it, surely get q 25-

and just try it.

There is no doubt that the tendency to
incorporate old-fashioned features OF dress
with modern ones will result In some
wild extravagances before the summer is
over, and nowhere is this limited at more
strongly than in the evening wraps. Os-
tensibly, straight cloaks are authorized,
but they are SO overturned ana their
straight effects ana VaunteQ SiInp1clty
are arrived at by such circuitous methods
that the result is often puzzling.
However. one is not compelled to ac-
cept these eccentricities. The American
woman is fast learning to assert her right
to reject or to adopt fashion feature
as it pleases her, realizing the absolute
folly Of wearing a frock or cloak or hat
merely because 1t happens to be heralded
as fashionable Hence she may be
counted upon to extend her common
sense to this matter Of evening cloaks.
The long manteaux that were in fashion
somewhere in the fifties are being repro
duced with considerable success. They
are first draped in apparent carelessness,
then applied to a smooth lining Of soft
silk or crepe and worn low about the
shoulders
The new broadcloth coats for evening
wear have great shawl hoods lined with
bright colored silk to match the coat
| lining, or else there is Just a narrow
round collar Of the silk matched to fiar1ng
cuffs that finish three-quarter sleeves.
In spite Of the more novel wraps that
are being brought out to vie with them,
these coats are delightful, and certainly
! they are practical, for they can be worn
| in daytime as well as evening, which ie
an advantage not to be Scorned.

SARTORIAL HINTS.
By Elizabeth Lee.

The red-haired type of woman may be
divided into two classes. There Is the
blue-eyed, pink and white type, the hair
rather fiery red, and the blond OF the
clear. colorless skin, not pale exactly, but
a healthy ivory tint, usually accompanied
by dark eyes, scarlet lips and hair more
auburn than red. 1t may be the hair Is
exactly the same tint as the locks Of the
blue-eyed woman, but 1t seems to be
darker because it does not suffer from
the contrast with the blue eyes. The lat
ter type is the easier of the two to dress
successfully.
AS green and the heliotrope shades have
tendency to increase the pallor of the
skin, 1t is obvious these colors should De

the lashes shading them and the brows

acting in the opposite direction, for in
stead of dulling the owner into insignifi-

not be Wells first opponent here.
That would hardly be fair. Wells
should be given couple of me-
dunn hard opponents for a starter,
or until he gets his bearings, learns
a little of the American style of
doing things, and gets a couple of
lungfuIs Of American air.
We are told Wells is not rugged
enough-that he lacks that some
thing that is extremely hard to de-
fine. Even the sharp English crit
les admit that something" Is lack
ing, but they can not determine
what 1t is. Some say it is what is
known in this country as a tissue
paper jaw. Others say the trouble
is in the wasp-like waist of the big
man. At any rate, the English
critics, eager as they are to possess
a contender for the heavyweight til
tie. say Wells has a fatal weakness
somewhere"
Americans who have seen Wells
work on the other side say Jim

men of that type, the rugged de-

punchers who are ever willing to
