Pills are tonic to the stomach, liver and

they enrich the blood instead of impover-

Washable Veil
Both Charming
and Fashionable

THESE two wells have, in addition
! to the advantage of being clean
ly, at least three others: they are be-
coming, they are durable and (what
means more to the eternal feminine)
they are fashionable.
Many more, wells and other dress
accessories are made to stand wash
ing than in former seasons. Each
year manufacturers of fabrics in
crease their efforts to find stable
colors and methods of strong weav-
ing, for nearly all articles of apparel.
All fabrics appeal more surely and
permanently to the buying public if
this item of standing the wash is
among their virtues. For cleanliness
is an essential of elegance. Women
have taken to heart the axiom that
to be elegant things must first be
clean. The veil of fine meshed net
has widely scattered embroidered
dots and a graceful border made by
applying Renaissance braid and fine
cord. The latter is chain-stitched by
machinery to the net. Such wells are
always in fashion, more or less, and
will last a lifetime. They sell from
fifty cents up to two dollars apiece,
as an average. The more elaborate
the border, the more expensive the
veil; therefore there are patterns
that cost more than two dollars
Even at a higher price this veil is
not bad investment since it may be
used as a fschu, or for trimming a
bodice or as a founce. Two wells of
this kind made a beautiful decora-

THE BEST TREATMENT FOR
ITCHING SCALPS, DANDRUFF
AND FALLING HAIR

To allay itching and irritation of the
scalp, prevent dry, thin and falling
hair, remove crusts, scales and dan
druff, and promote the growth and
beauty of the hair, the following spe-
cial treatment is most effective, agree
able and economical. On retiring,
comb the hair out straight all around,
then begin at the side and make a
parting, gently rubbing Cuticura Oint-
ment into the parting with a bit Of
soft flannel held over the end of the
finger. Anoint additional partings
about half an inch apart until the
whole scalp has been treated, the pur-
pose being to get the Cuticura Oint-
ment on the scalp skin rather than on
the hair. 1t is we'll to place a light
covering over the hair to protect the
pillow from possible stain. The next
morning, shampoo with Cuticura Soap
and hot water. Shampoos alone may
be used as often as agreeable, but
once or twice a month is generally
sufficient for this special treatment
for women's hair.

Close to the shore Of Taboga island,

wooded islet known as Moro. For
many, many years it was owned by a
Spanish family, the present repre-
sentative of which is widow of
small means. On Moro is a flowing
spring of excellent water, and one of
the Pacific navigation companies de-
sired to acquire the islet as a water
ing station for it's vessels. The widow
was paid a fair price, and as a bonus
was given life passes for herself and
her children on the boats of the COM

consummated than the estimable lady

the normal in size.
The straight back is a godsend to
one who is a little round shouldered.
The collar stands away from the
back of the neck and the curve from
the neck to shoulder blades is very
slight. There is no curve from that
point to the bottom.
But the straight-back is not for
everyone and there are plenty of 9th
er models to choose from. All the
new designs may be said to hang on
the figure rather than to fit it. Among
them the Russian blouse is sure to

Panama City's water supply is de-
rived from the Rio Grande reservoir,
little lake quite close to the canal.
For obvious reasons bathing or wad-
ing in it is forbidden, and ali around it
are signs stating that fact. Recently
the wife of a member of the canal
commission was entertaining friends
from the states, and in the course Of
their wanderings one day they came
upon the reservoir. They were tired
and dusty and the cool water looked
so inviting that they all took off their
shoes and stockings and went in wad-

the efficient zone policemen came upon
them and arrested the whole party
They were taken before the nearest
