YOUR HAIR AND ONE WAY oDREss IT.

Fashions were made that wornen
might be enhanced by them-not that
they might be made freakish by them.
Please, Oh please, remember this espe-
hair has been called "woman's CROWN
ing glory for so long, that the phrase
has degenerated into a mere term. /
wish we would take it more literally.
I am aware that I am dealing with
q hackneyed subtect-but let me draw
on example from my illustration Of to-
day.
In the first place, cover up the hair
In the picture and study the face. Note
how extremely youthful a co~untenance
1t is. The yes are the wideopen, can

ishly. and the mouth is sweet and
young. The cheeks are plump, and the
chin is dimpled.
Now uncover the hair. and note how
delightfully."- the mode OF dressing be-
the style of face.
1t is 20 prettily puffed out at the
sides, with q very youthful feature In
the suggestion of q pompadour. The
loose coils placed with seeming care
lessness but infinite cunning are en-
tirely ingenue.
AS a matter Of fact, It is an appro-
pirate head dress.
Try to imagine some other style with
that face. It Is hard to imagine an
other. and that 10 entirety as 1t should
be. The women that can wear their
hair In n style whatsoever n have
1t become them are hard to ftnd-ai-
though many lay claim to this dtstinc-
tion. And this IL why we see 80 many
tn1posstbly dressed heads.

MARROW SKIRTS

Do I like them? I most ~assuredly
do. They are graceful, comfortable n
healthful.
1 know this last is true, because some
sonallyr interview some 20 prominent
physicians, who. almost without ex-
ception, decreed that from a sanitary
standpoint alone the narrow skirt de-
serves long life.
They said, In brief. hat narrow

II you do not go to vulgar extremes,
there is nothing indecent or bold in
the narrow skirt. I am printing a pic

that she is walking with assured COM

BRIGHTNESS

It is an interesting fact that Of late
more emphasis has been put upon ex-
~ercises TO correct bad carriage, in the
public school curriculum, than
other exercise.
All Of which would indicate that the
%proverbiai bad carriage of Young
America has been noticed and deplored.
There Is no reason why we should
walk like turtles, with our heads thrust
forward, or like crabs. swaying from
side to side. or like funny. fat old hens,
with a waddle. or like any other ami
are normal human beings INT surely
ought to be able to hold ourselves as
such.
The mistaken ideas of beauty that
are embodied in the "debutant droop"
and other anguished angles are ex-
ceedingly amusing to the truly artistic
person. Nothing that is unnatural is
graceful, as l believe that 1 have said
before-but the charge bears repeating.
There are many splendid exercises
for Strengthening the back and inn
proving the carriage. One Of h best
and simplest is illustrated today. It
consists in merely clasping h hands
that way. You will find 1t Impossible.
to stoop or SLOUGH while in that posi-
ton.
The "old reliable" stunt Of poising
a book or pan of water q advise you
to begin with a book and graduate to
the OF water) On the head. and
then walking, running and hopping, is
the very best l know OF. 1t has so many
beneficial effects that they are too
numerous to repeat here. Try 1t your
self, and find out how good 1t Is.
l,Choose for the purpose a. mediumly
heavy volume. and steady 1t with
your hands at first. After a little prac-
tice you will be able to use a pan OF
water-which is lots more fun. The
element OF danger adds to the attrac-
~tiveness of the exercise. Be careful
not to have hairpirs In your topknot
where the books will press them into
your scalp.

Too much money can scarcely be
expended along educational lines. 1t
has been said by some one that
"parsimony towards education is lib
erality toward crime" Investments
in the right sort of schools will de-
clare a dividend in the reduction of
the states bill for criminal costs and
the city expenditure for policemen,
says some writer who knows whereof
he speaks. If these things are true
(and we belivee they are) the money
spent for education is a revenue for
the government. Unfortunately,
however, we have some disgruntled
bachelors, who take the other side of
this question and so 1t is we have to
meet opposition in every walk in
life.

How the Red Cross Seal Originated.

idea originated.
Some OF your grandmothers first
played "postoffice" with stickers
similar to Red Cross Seals way back
in 1852, when they conceived the
idea of selling stamps at fairs for the
benefit of the relief funds for the
soldiers hospitals in Brooklyn, Bos-
ton and elsewhere. Nearly $1,000,
900 was raised in this way before
1866. After the war, this method of
raising money was discontinued in
this country for a generation, al
though it found vogue in Portugal.

Denmark, Norway, Russia, Sweden
and other European countries. There
are now thousands of different types
OF charity stamps used in all parts of

used in Austria for children's hos
pitals alone.

professionalism. If the Olympic

they may be as a result of such

Though he admired the Rheims
Athletic college as "ths most per-
feet institution of the kind in the
world Mr.. Sullivan says he doesn't
believe training there is sufficient
ly special in character to produce
athletics of Olympic standard.
Rheims is teaching one and the
same man, for instance, to run
dashes, middle distance, long dis
lance, as well as to jump, walk and

The result is, so It is asserted,
that the Rheims athlete develops a
