THE most striking couture which
! made it's appearance in midsummer
showed the hair brushed back from
the face, without curl or wave, and the
forehead entirely uncovered. Where
the hair is naturally wavy and the
forehead we'll shaped this style was
possible. But, even SO, only youthful
wearers could carry it off; it proved
generally unbecoming. Therefore the
new off-the-face coiffures are waved
and the hair brought down over the
forehead for little way, when such
an arrangement Is found to suit the
style of the wearer.
! The hair is most conveniently
dressed In these new styles by parting
of portion of it all around the head
and waving it. This leaves the back
hair to be combed up to the crown and
coiled into support for the end of the
waved portion. A very small and
rather nat hair roll placed around the
head before the waved hair is combed

chino for cleaning the hulls of ships
below the water line. In this con-
trivance watertight dynamo drives

against the hull OF the ship by a small

lowered by crane from a small boat
alongside the steamer, the end that
holds the rapidly revolving brush Is
