feeding of rape should be avoided as hay-

eggs light in color. Few people realize
the extent to which eggs arc affected by
the rood which the hens consume. Glover
and alfalfa, like new grass, tend to make
the yolks yellow. just as they give this
color to the milk of COWS IL the spr.ng
During the fall months and continuing

PLAID COATS WORN
WITH WHITE SKIRTS

Ii one does not care 10 adopt a coat
suit OF plaid for any occasion one may
like to take Up the idea Of wearing u
short plaid coat with skirt OF white
muslin or crepe of wolfe or SAITH. The
latter combination is quite effective FOR
any afternoon occasion, especially IN the
open, and the adding Of paid SILK or
wolfe in any way TO white crepe gown
is a fashion that grows in power as
people see how attractive il is
There IS no doubt that the public In
general has accepted the coat of diff
ferent color from the skirt and az they
have gone through the various paths OF
ia shion that led to black red, purple
and green coats with white skirts II is
only "A tiny step further to ask them
to wear Scotch plaid coats.
After all the coat of today is such a
dirninutive affair. which ends the moment
it begins. that the dash of color is not
inartistic. These neglige coats have a
great deal OF charm about them. espe-
c!ally in summer. and If a woman will
try the fashion first in cotton and wear
it over soft draped white skirt she
can then find out without spending too
much money whether or not she looks

THE HAIR
FROM SUMMER SUNS

We have been warned not to wear bou-
doir caps If We would keep our hair. II
they are worn two hours every day, we
are told, the hair most certainly suffers
and eventually falls out because Of them.
We are also warned not to go bareheaded
in the summer: if we do. the too
direct days. OF the sun make our hair
fall out. What are we to do? We can
neither keep our heads covered nor
leave them uncovered, and the struggle
to keep our hair is almost all engross-
ing.
1t is d fact that much falling hair oc-
ours in the fall, month or so after
summer vacations are needed. Specialists
on the subject have decided that the
habit of spending much Of the vacation
bareheaded Is accountable for this ca
lamity. To be sure. nothing Is better for
the hair than thorough airing; this, with
a moderate amount of sunshine and much
brushing, keeps the hair clean and so
makes the frequent shampoo, which
specialists, most of them, also declare is
harmful to the hair. unnecessary So If
you would have beautiful hair when you
return from your vacation decide before
YOU start away that you will not expose
your locks to the suns direct rays.
the hair but so lis dirt. Especially in
summer it Is desirable to keep the hair
always clean and fresh. One way to do
this without taking a shampoo is to
wash the scalp regularly and frequently
with alcohol. Another way is to mas
ter the dry shampoo Orris root, or orris
root mixed with taicum powder, should
be rubbed in the hair. but not in the
scalp. The scalp should be freed from the
orris root or powder. which clogs Its
pores, by massage.
Nothing is better for cleaning the hair
than the liquid soap known as green
soap, or pure CASTLE. a delightful sham
poo mixture can be made by melting
CASTLE soap with little water until ii is
jelly, then adding four teaspoonfuls
OF borax. to one cake of soap. and a few
drops OF violet or rose pei fume or
cologne, to scent il pleasantly.
Another good liquid shampoo soap is
made by melting a cake of tar soap in
a double boiler with d little water. or
putting it in a glass jar, covering the
soap with warm water and putting the
jar in a pan of water in the oven until
the soap is of jellylike consistency.
