Meeting rhe Difficulty

A GOOD story is told of worthy Quaker who
a lived in a country town. The man was rich
and benevolent, and his means were put in
frequent requislton for purposes of local charity
or usefulness. The townspeople wanted to re-
build their parish church and committee was
appointed to raise funds. 1t was agreed that the
Quaker could not be asked to subscribe toward
an object contrary to his principles, but then.
on the other hand, true friend to the town
might take it amiss if he not at least consult
ed on matter OF such general interest So one
OF their number went and explained to him their
proJect-the old church to be removed and
such and such steps taken toward the construc-
ton of new one
Thee vast right said the Quaker, "in sup
posing that my principles would not allow me to
assist in building church. But didst thee not
say something about pulling down a church?
Thee mayst put my name down for a hundred
pounds to pull it down.

The Couture Of Refinement g

A DA1IRATION of the latest styles in ooiffures
n IS largely tinged with rejoicing that the day
OF the grotesque haystack bunch of jute is
passed, and that the simple. graceful coitfure is
coming back to its own.
Beginning with LETT to right, a very effective
and simple style OF hair dressing is shown by
Miss Ann Swinburne as Seraphina in the title
role OF The Madcap Duchess" The effect is
that OF Psyche knot with the added gracefulness
achieved by braid worn over the forehead with
the side hair brought low over the ears.
The style adopted by Miss Margaret Andrews
IS ID direct contrast, with the effect almost
SIMPLE. The hair is punched at the crown with
the effect OF soft dropping pompadour in front
The style so we'll suited to the piquant face of
Miss Peggy Wood is simplicity itself. The hair
IS parted in the middle allowed to fall loosely
over the ears, and IS gathered in low knot at
the back.
Miss Glen Ellis has the perfectly rounded head
that permits OF the hair being drawn into low
bun al the back. with fluffy effect in front re-
deeming it from the trying severity this style
would otherwise become.
