Mid-season Hats

The most fascinating hats for mid
season wear are to be seen In shops
and on the avenue.
From Paris comes the latest crea-
ton In the shape of hat called the
Joffre. 1t is made of dark velvet, is
round and fiat and possesses a point
ed brim.
Over the back of the crown of a
bonnet-shaped hat of velvet spears a
broad stiffened band of velvet, which
establishes the hat as a reincarnation
of the fashions of. Charles the Sec
ond's period. And another OF wide
half-moon shaped brims Joined to-
gether with cockade OF the tricolor
outlined with gold braid is called tho
Little Corporal, and SO It goes, says
the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
All that Is new and chic in MILL
merry maneuvers Is not included in the
first battalion of hats which wheel
into review before the ruler of the
seasons modes.
These which patrol the rear of the
procession make up in dash and effect
what they have relinquished In posi-
ton.

SIMPLE EXERCISES THAT TEND TO
MAKE THE THIN THROAT PLUMP

To have a scrawny neck and thin
shoulders is a great disadvantage
with the present fashions that more
or less expose the throat to view, yet
the fashions make for health.
Lest this statement be too quickly
challenged it may be well to explain
that by removing combining bands
from the throat and allowing it's
glands Especially the thyroid to
maintain healthy state and to func-
ton properly, not only have necks
and shoulders filled out to normal
lines. but internal vigor has been
shown in a great decrease of throat
affections among particularly
golfers and tubercular conditions. All
of which would seem to indicate that
nature Is willing to aid in anything
that makes for health and bloom.
That scrawny neck can be changed
to an attractive one and the owner
thereby have a healthier throat makes
1t worth the trying, for the cases that
do not yield to treatment are few
and in any case the massaging Is
beneficial, says the Washington Sun
day Star.
IL the thinness is general, or II 1t is
mature (the slenderness of youth Is
usually attractive). diet has to be
considered and fattening foods, such
as bread and butter. rice, potatoes
and other starchy vegetables, sugar
and sweets, raw eggs and milk, in

Famous Woman Bacteriologist

In the About People" department
of the November Woman's Home
Companion appear a picture and
sketch of DIR. Lillian H. South, Ken
tucky's bacteriologist. An extract
from the article follows:
There could be little progress in
the war against disease but for the
work of the baeteriologist who, like
an able military strategist. but using
a microscope instead of q spyglass,
discovers our enemies, the minute or
ganisms that prey upon the human
system. and works out the best
methods of repelling their attacks.
DR.. Lillian Herald South, head OF the
Kentucky State meteorological Lab
oratory at Bowling Green, Is said TO
be the only woman to hold the i'm
portant position Of State bacteriolo-
gist. She has specialized In bac-
teriology ever since her graduation
from the Women's Medical College,
in Philadelphia, in 1902. 1t was large
~ in consequence of her demonstra-
ton of the ravages of that wicked
parasite, the hookworm, that the
State authorities, aided by the
Rockefeller Commission, are carrying
on Il systematic campaign to eXtir-
pate the hookworm disease. In con-
nection with her laboratory DIR.
South conducts the only Pasteur In
stitute in Kentucky, where persons
bitten by supposedly rabid animals
are examined and treated free of
charge Many of those who come to
her for observation and treatment
are poor mountain folk who have few
enjoyments, and by taking them on
auto trips and to moving-picture
shows DR. South wins their confidence
and affection, and makes their three
weeks at the institute a pleasant and
memorable chapter in their lives"

Systematic, thorough cleaning OF

Well Worth
a Trial

GUIDED in 1t, not to mention olive oil
and plenty of cream.
In massaging again employ fatten-
ing oils or a good massage cream:
The oil may be q combination OF
almond oil and pure fat or olive oil.
1t should be remembered that the
massage should not be strenuous,
that 1t ought to be done with just
enough gentle friction to stimulate
the circulation. Rub the oil or cream
as far over your neck and shoulders
as you can reach; then tap ID into
the pores with your finger tips, feel
ing for the muscles Some Of the
nourisher should be left on the skin
at night to be absorbed during sleep.
Throwing the head far back and
then rolling it from side to side is a

breathing exercises are most bene-
fetal for both neck and shoulders.
