NOW that the high couture is certain
~ of success, hairdressers are evolv-
ing many attractive arrangements,
each making its bid for popular favor.
1t is certain new order of things is
coming. There is to be more elab-
Grafton in styles for the coming season
than for year past, more pretty
curls and ringlets about the face, and
the return to a modest pompadour at
the front. This is something to be
thankful for because it is immensely
becoming to most women.
The simpler, the very plain, styles
are well enough for youthful wearers.
But older women require more intri-
cate designs, The new high Coiffures
are stately and a great advantage to
them. Little variations adapt them to
youthful wearers-like the puff extend
ing out at each side and covering the
ears.
In all the new styles shown Sc far
The ears are concealed, as in those
worn during the past season. There
are several pretty new arrangements

to choose from, That showing the

style is always good and never quite
disappears

automatically established, however,
and some authorities include the ban

the Spaniards
Certain it is that throughout the
whole meridional America there is a
strong tradition that at least two spe-
ctss of the plantain were cultivated
long before the coming of the Euro
peans. Furthermore, it is singular
that in all the languages indigenous
to the region where the banana ap-
pears, the plant has a special name,
not proceeding from the conquerors,
as was the case with the names of
many other plants. animals and vari-
GUS articles introduced into America
after its discovery.
Grown over the entire extent of the
meridian of the earth, the fruit of the
banana today forms in large part the
principal food Of a majority OF the
peoples living under the tropical zone.

strand is parted off and rolled into a
puff. All the remainder of the hair
is brought up to the top of the head,
except that portion parted off at the
front to cover the pompadour A
small hair roll or support will be
needed for the pompadour
When the back hair is brought up
coiled loosely and pinned into position,
the short hair roll is pinned in across
the top of the head. The ends of the
hair which are brought over the POM
padour are fastened under the coil
at the top of the head They then are
brought down at each side and turned
back near the temples and above the
puffs which cover the ears.
A short fringe of hair about the face
is curled and parted at the middle
When the hair is not long or thick
enough it will be necessary to use a
small switch to form the coil at the
top of the head,
Very little wave appears in this
couture, although there are models in
which a long loose wave is EN-.
ployed But the waving of the natural
hair is very natural looking, just
enough to keep it from being quite
straight and about like that which APP

A switch of this kind may be used
for many different styles and arranged
in braid or chignon or coil. 1t is

LEGEND OF GARDEN OF EDEN
Oriental Christians Believe Banana
Tree Was the Source of Good
and Evil.

There exists legend relative'to the
Christian inhabitants Of the east that
they believe the banana to be the tree
of the source of good and evil, in a
bunch of the fruit of which the ser
pent that tempted Eve hid itself and
they add that when Adam and Eve be-
came ashamed of their nakedness,
they covered themselves with the
leaves of this plant
The origin of the banana is given as

the new world is as doubtful as the
origin of the American Indian. Ma

VALUE QUEER RELICS HIGHLY
Large Sums Have Frequently Been
Paid for Articles That Many
Would Call Grewsome.

1t is not every man, not every hero
worshiper, who would esteem the
tooth of his hero of more value than
diamonds. There is Il ring belonging
to an English nobleman. in which the
place of honor. formerly occupied by
diamond. is given to a tooth that
once did duty in a human jaw.
This tooth cost no less than three
thousand six hundred and fifty dol
lars; but it was the tooth of Sir Isaac
Newton. A relic collector sold it at
auction in 1886, and the nobleman
who bought it gave it the place of a
diamond in his favorite ring
Another tooth, which so far excites
the veneration of hero worshipers as
to be able to hold a court of it's own

Little Lesson in Efficiency

A woman who has been studying the

SERIES Of LETTERS
SURPRISE At TRIAL
Promised Disclosures of Krupp
Methods Partly Develop
at Berlin Hearing.

BERLIN, October 2s.-The promised
disclosure Of the methods of working
adopted by the krupp Armaments Com
pany.. In order to obtain an insight into
the German governments pending con-
tracts. were partly developed this morn
ing lat the resumption Of the trial of
Otto. Eccus and Macmillan Brandt, a
former director. and Berlin representa-
tive. respectively. of the rupp concern.
Won Metzen. formerly the chief repre-
sentative in Berlin of Krupps testified
that his employers were aware Of the
nature Of Macmillan Brandt's activities
for several years. Won Metzen said that
when he took his post in Berlin in 1909
he directed the attention of the firm to
the dangers Of Brandt's "subterranean
work." the nature of which had been
explained to him by Otto Eccius and
Won Schuetz. the predecessor of Won
MetZen. Won Metzen protested against
the retention Of Brandt in Berlin in this
capacity.
Won Metzen's testimony was fatty
contrad ctory of that given by various
directors of Krupps. but he produced
series Of substantiating letters which
had passed between himself and the
firm. These letters came as surprise,
even to the prosecution, which had con-
Quoted the preliminary examinations of
the krupp directors in ignorance of this
correspondence.
The court afterward adjourned the
hearing and directed an immediate
search of Won Metzen'S house in order
to discover what further surprises he
might have in reserve.
