A Well Made Gown.


IF a gown is made with under
standing and earnest care, it will have
sood lines-it will bear inspection on
its own simple merits. If it is awk-
wardly cut and designed, no trimming
will hide its poor lines, it's ungrace-
full fit. That is well to remember in
gowning yourself. For there is one
great rule for charm. One rule ap-
plies to gowns and the women VINO
wear them. I would like to give cred
II for this great piece of knowledge
to the great teacher who impaired it
to me. Mr. BelasCO. trained me for
the part that runs through the play
like minor strain Of sweetness in
music by saying over and over:
Simple! Be simple, Miss Victor
Il would like to say that to all
beauty seekers: SIMPLE! BE SIM
PLE!' AffeCtation is never charming.
If you permit your manner to become
overeffusive-elabor and airy-you
will at once be accused of affectation
Affectation is insincere. Be sincere
that will demand simplicity. 1t will
give you warm, sweet human charm
After you have cultivated simple
ity, study being responsive Be inter
ested in people. Be interested in all
the great concerns of life that are
going on around you Very often the
woman who appears a beauty while
you have but glanced at her perfect
features lacks the brains to bear
careful inspection She falls apart az
the touch of reality-like all poorly
constructed things!
The most beautiful picture in the
world would not he beautiful if il
were covered by dust and Crime and
mold. | think stupidity and unsym-
pathetic nature and elf-COnsciOusness
hide beauty the same way.
Cultivate your knowledge Of life,
cultivate your interest in people and
things learn to forget yourself Then
your face will take on a radiance. an
intelligence, a sweetness that will
make you beautiful even if your figure
and hair are without distinction
Think Beauty.
THINK EAUTIFUL THOUGHTS
They will mold your face to be like
them. Your eyes will be like deep
pools in whose depth there is hidden
treasure. Your mouth will take on
sweet, full lines of graciOusness. You
will radiate charm
Now, for a background YOU must
have the good health that comes from
the constant, painstaking care of the
woman who has the proper respect
for the value of the house that is her
body Good food, fresh air. exercise,
no dissipation. These are the basis of
bodily health And not to dissipate
means not to overindulge in anything,
good or bad. 1t means moderation. Be
moderate and careful to protect your
health That will give you founda-
tion for your house of beauty

for another line, but all desires are
met at this drug store. This big
stock of drugs is not noticeable to
the ordinary observer entering the
salesroom of the drug store, but
there is another room running
parallel with the main room, entrance
to which is made from behind the
prescription case, which is complete

drugs. In order to handle the trade
during the winter season Mr..
Hankins now has nine people en-

line carried in the Hawkins drug
store which experience and careful
study has enabled the proprietor to
bring up to state of almost perfec-
ton, and that is the line of toilet ar
ticles, perfumes and soaps. 1t is
safe to say there is not a more COM
plete stock of these goods carried in
any drug store in the state of Flor
ida than is carried in this store.
The leading brands of perfumes are
imported and of the highest possible
quality, because it has been found
the winter trade demands this class
of goods. In fact, if one may Judge
by the grade of goods carried in
the Hawkins store the demands of
the winter business here are for the
highest grade in all lines.
Why is it that so often people in
reading the news columns of a pa

they are for some reason particularly
interested? 1t is a common thing for
persons to say that certain items had
not appeared and yet the item in
question had not only been printed
but was SO located that it seemed al
most impossible for anyone to over
look it, This applies quite fire.
quently to local advertising as well
as personal and general items and
even occasionally to space adver-
tisements. Three people recently in
one morning entered the Daily News
office to call attention to the omis-
sion of certain items and in each
case the item in question was pointed
out to them in the paper in which
they could not find it. These pecu-
liar oversights cannot be charged to
careless reading for in each case the
parties had gone carefully over the
paper more than once looking for
the item. 1t appears to be kind of
mental blindness in which the mind
fails to recognize what the eye must
surely see.

The arrival of the Saracina Royal
Italian band and the beginning of the
regular daily concerts by this musical
organization has caused the people to
wonder why this plan of entertain
ment for residents and visitors was
never carried into effect before. For
two years The Gossiper has urged the
need of good band in Daytona as
form of entertainment which could be
enjoyed by everybody and the con-
certs already given by the Saracina
organization proves that Director
G. Burgoyne made a wise selection
when he hired this band. 1t is a good
musical organization, probably better
than the people who subscribed to the
fund really expected to get, and it's
presence here will be thoroughly ap-
preciated throughout the season. But

One of the most convincing argu-
ments yet presented that a deeper
channel is needed from the east side
of the river at the south bridge to
the city dock and the yacht club, was
shown yesterday when the two hand
some yachts, Oneida and Itasca II,
both of Duluth, Mimi, made several
Intellectual attempts to come up to
the dock here, gave up in disgust and
went on down to New Smyrna. The
people on board the boats, among
whom was Senator Hawkins, of Min
nesota, had planned to spend several
days in Daytona, having heard much
of the beauty of this prettiest of all
winter resorts. but because Of the
inability to bring the boats to dock
here the plans were changed. IN
stead of the people spending several
days here they got off the yachts at
the south bridge, came over to the
city, hired an automobile to drive
them about town for short time,
then drove to New Smyrna to again
board their yachts and continue the
cruise down the East Coast. The
trouble experienced by the freight
boats practically every time one at
tempts to come in or leave the
dock here, is another argument for
the need of a deeper and wider

JUST GOSSIP
BY THE GoSSiPER.

Next Monday night every member
of the Daytona board of trade should
make it a point to be present at the
regular meeting and smoker at the
Elk's club. There are many matters
of Importance to be considered by the
board of trade at this time and it is
important that every member of the
organization should be present at this
meeting.
With the Biscayne tied up some
where in the canal with bum boil
er and the other freight boats having
trouble on every trip between this
city and Jacksonville because the
canal is not yet completed, it is
rather doubtful just when the new
boat, the City of Daytona, will reach
this city, but when it does dock
here it should be greeted by a mon
ster demonstration, headed by the
Saracina band.

Although not so bad as during the
holiday rush, express conditions in
Daytona are still deplorable, and for
the simple reason that the express
company does not see fit to give
Mr.. Williamson sufficient competent
help. 1t appears to be case of get

essary. The people of Daytona and

ENTERS PLEA NOT GUILTY.
Mason City Woman Claims She
Poisoned Babe as Result of
Threat.

Mason City, Iowa, Dec. 15.-Mrs.
Ada Holcomb Burgess, indicted for
murder in the first degree for poi
soning her child, three months old,
entered the plea of not guilty today.
She admitted in the preliminary
hearing that she gave the child
morphine from which she died but
she will attempt to show that she
was driven to do it through threats
of Louis Chirikos who threatened to
kill her unless she killed the child.
She told the story that Chirikos
was the father of the child and the
only reason that can be conjectur-
ed why Chirikos would want to get
rid of it was that it looked like him
and he was afraid people would sur
mise that it was his. Chirikos enter
ed the plea of not guilty to the
charge of murder and will have a
separate trial.
