GLORIFIES GOOD GROOMING
BY BILLIE BURKE.

The first word--To be well-groomed
is TO look as fit as fine horse after
i has been perfectly curried
II cannot afford the time nor the
money TO be always we'll groomed,
said a woman to me the other day
after bewailing the fact that she was
losing her youthful freshness OF COM
plexion and dainuness of form
Just then her husband who is a
well-known actor, came In from re-
hearsal He was cle3n-shaven: his
bair was cut TO just tho right length
his shoes were polished TO a glass-like
luster: his finger nails were nicely
manicured. | noticed this as he took
from his mouth a fat and dark-colored
cigar. Evidently the gentlemen could
AFFORD both time and money for i'm.
inaculate grooming.
Most women can spend the short
time and the little money that is nee
essary TO keep themselves in perfect
cleanliness and sweetness, but they
don't have the inclination. The same
Lady that made the remark about time
and money being the scarce commod-
tiles with her was complacently
munching chocolates from box that
stood at her elbow. At her neck was
a frilly little chiffon DOW that was
already soiled with one wearing. Her
handkerchief proclaimed that she had
money TO spend for perfume. Her
stockings were undeni3bly silk, al
though there was a hole in one OF
them which was shown by the run
down at the heel slipper.
Good grooming is not so expensive
that the working girl OF every mod
crate salary cannot be always trim
and neat. Good soap can be bought
for less than good perfume and
splendid cold cream Is more to be
desired than foolish chiffon neckwear
that will not stand laundering.
A dollar invested In a shampoo has
five times the value of that invested
in candy and II does not take so long
to carefully manicure ones nails as 1t

THE SHIPS COMPASS

TT is a curious fact that the steel hull OF a
vessel is rendered magnetic during con-
struction by the hammcrng Of the metal,
and that every steel vessel should. therefore,
have its compass corrected to countcract It's
own magnetic lines Of force
The magnetic influence is further compli-
Gated by the load carried by the vessel. if
this load is magnetic or capable of being
magnctizcd. The orc-carrying vessels Of the
Great Lakes experience great difficulties on
this account. and for sometime hydrographic
authorities have been cndcavoring 10 teach
pilots and captains of vessels plying in this
trade how TO check their course by means Of
the pclorus.
The pclorus is an instrument similar TO
the sundial, being provided with gnomon
and graduated arc on which a shadow Of
the gnomon is cast. The instrument is set
in a north and south direction, as indicated
by the compass and then, by noting the
shadow on the graduated arc, it is possible
to tell by comparison with tables just how
far from the north and south position the
gnomon really lies, thus showing the COM
pass error.
