ALL ABOUT THE PHILOSOPHER
Short Essay Evidently Written by One
Familiar With This Species Of
Animal.

A philosopher is a man, and rarely
woman, who. having nothing to do
and being glad of it, puts in his time
explaining the reason that other peo-
pie should have for doing things.
Philosophers are no popular be-
cause, in the first place. most men are
too busy to listen to them, and. in
the second place, they are satisfied
with their own reason for doing
things.
Nevertheless. philosophers are won't
to gravitate toward comfortable stoves
in corner groceries. where men Of
varying leisures straggle in and to-
wards comfortable chairs in UNIVERSE
ties where helpless youth are COM
PEELED to listen as a part of an awful
punishment called a curriculum
Whenever a philosopher becomes IA
nous. it always turns out that he is
not philosopher at all, but a scient-
list. Simon pure philosophers never
give information, because nothing less
than explaining the unknowable will
satisfy them. One philosopher will
never agree with another philosopher
II he can possibly help it.-Life.

SCALES COVERED SCALP

5 Brewer St, Newport, R. my
husband had eczema for six months,
all this time taking medicine and US
ing salVe not doing him any good. The
trouble grew worse. 1t started with
red shining spots all over the scalp,
covered with thickness of white
scales itching terribly. His hair
came out, and he had terrible
lot Of dandruff. The white scales
could be seen in his hair as they peel
ed off, and would fall down on his
coat. He would never stop scratching
until he made big sores all over his
head.
Il washed the scalp in warm water
and soap, but this only made it worse,
the red spots growing larger until
they covered the whole scalp, coming
down the forehead. I got one cake Of
Cuticura Soap and two boxes of Cuti-
cura Ointment After two weeks treat
ment he was completely cured"

year and come in handy for any num-
Der of occasions. 1t Is a hat not toe
dressy for very informal wear, but
which lends itself to those that re-
quire high-style also. 1t Is ideal for
the tourist who wants to go about
without much baggage and still be
prepared to dress for state occasions,
Another very new model, in which
roses are wonderfully placed, shows
a large hemp shape with concave un.
derbrim filled in with very large full
bloom roses. They are mounted fiat
against the underbrim. forming an en-
chanting frame for the face. The
crown is trimmed with full ruche of
lace and that finishes the design. The
shape is made with special reference
to this method Of trimming.
This is distinctly midsummer model,
that Is, it is meant for summer wealth
er and is therefore not as useful as
the turban. JULIA BoTToMLEY.

Two New Ideas.

If you wish to give your lingeri.
frock the very latest within of the fash
ion realm add narrow bands of brown
fur. These bands of fur edging foun-
ces and drapery of the most transpa-
rent and filmy net and chiffon dresses
We're one of the most marked features
OF the drag race at Auteuil. 1t is one
OF those curious combinations in
which the French revel, but at the
same time 1t is effective.
Another popular fancy is the scarf
OF maline attached to the gown on one
shoulder and thrown around the figure
In artistic abandon. In fact, malne
will be found surprisingly useful in re-
freshing slightly worn gowns, whether
used as scarf, neck ruche, sash or fin-
ishing the sleeves. There Is now
waterproof maline on the market
which neither the dampness of the
shore nor an unexpected shower can
wilt

In an effort to stop the migration OF
dying consumptives to the Southwest,
the National Association for the Study
and Prevention of tuberculosis will
ask physicians to be more careful in
ordering patients to go away, and will
also ask railroads to discontinue their
practice of selling charity" tickets
to those who cannot afford to pay full
fare. mo consumptive should go to
Colorado, California, or the West for
his health" says the association, "un-
less he has a good chance for recov-
cry from his disease, and unless espe-
cially he has at least $1,000 to spend
for this purpose, over and above what
his family may need
tuberculosis can be cured in any
part Of the United States, and it is
not necessary for tuberculosis pa
tient to go West. Whenever possible,
the National Association urges tuber-
culosis patients who have not ample
funds to go to- sanatorium near

take the cure in their own homes, VI

PRESENT FOR ENGAGED GIRL
An Apron to Slip on When Bride Does
Housework Is Always Ac-
ceptable.

A useful and attractive gift for al
engaged girl is an apron that may
be slipped on when the bride does
Homework, and wishes to keep pre-.
sentable. Just this type Of apron is
hard to buy, so is doubly acceptable.
Probably the most useful kind is a
studio apron, such as is used by the
woman artist. Get a good pattern
with sleeves reaching to the wrists
and cut without too much fullness.
Choose a pink Bingham Of fine quality
or clear black and white stripe,
which always washes well.
For the former trim the neck
which should be cut slightly square
and sleeves with a two-inch insertion
Of white embroidery, and fasten at
the back with white pearl buttons.
The black and white apron may be
trimmed with black bias bands, or
with white cotton bands embroidered
in cross-stitch design in black.
A somewhat dressier apron, though
not SO useful for protection, is made
like a waitress apron, with straps
over the shoulders. A pretty effect
Is had with ecru or pale pink percale,
the straps embroidered in cross
stitch band that is carried on each
side to the bottom of the apron. The
hem at bottom and sides is finished
with row of two-chain stitch-bands.
Use several tones of brown or red
mercerized cotton on the ecru apron,
and white or black on the pink one.
