HOW TO PROTECT YOUR
COMBS.

Well kept combs are now kept
in special cases made of two fiat
pieces in tortoise shell, silver,
ivory or whatever mounting is
used for the toilet articles, weld
ed together at the ends and along
the side, leaving the other side
open. While the comb, after
having been thoroughly washed
and dried, slips snugly into this
case. it easily slides out when
the receptacle is held upside
down.
The case in tortoise shell. silver
and ivory must be made to order
as toilet articles Of those ma
terials usually are special pat
terms not duplicated in cheaper
mountings.
Exceedingly pretty cases come
in hand painted white celluloid
and kindred ivory like compost
tons. and very dainty ones may
be made Of heavy white linen,
hand embroidered with mono
gram or vine and finished
along the edges with fine scallop-
ing headed by line of little
buttonholes run through the
) baby ribbon.

PARIS Eehr1,a

PARIS. February. H. 19l4
The Infanta EulaIia. aunt of King Al
fonso of Spain. is defying the convention
ality which usually surrounds the pres

quented often She immed ately engaged
three stage boxes for that evening and
with a party of friends enjoyed herself
to the utmost. as did the audience. which
quickly recognized the royal guest and
derived great amusement from the fact
that the kings aunt smoked throughout
the performance, seated conspicuously I'm
the front Of one of the boxes. She lghted
cigarette after cigarette. laughed heartily
and commended loudly each phase of the
production.
In the last act one of the most popular
Partisan comedians, dressed in the IA
railiar CAPTAIN generals uniform and with
features made up to resemble those of King
Alfonso. appeared In a box directly oppo-
site the infanta. The likeness OF her
nephew was so excellent that the kings
aunt could hardly control her laughter.

WOMAN STUDENTS INCREASE.
Number Nearly Quadrupled at Ger
man Universities in Six Years.

BERLIN, February Ii. 19l4.
The number Of woman students at Ger.
man universities has been nearly quadru-
pied during the past six years. according
to figures just announced. In the winter
of 1908. when the doors Of German uni
versities were first fully thrown open to
women. there were 1.l0S woman students
enrolled today there are 3,6S6 women
taking regular courses and as many more
who are attending lectures. More than
6 per cent of the total number of stu
dents at the German universities arc
women. More than half of all the wonl-
en- are studying philosophy. languages
and history. somewhat more than one
fourth are stud ing medicine. and more
than one-fifth natural sciences.
Nearly 400 of the woman students are
foreigners. Russia sends the largest
number. and America the next The
women have for three years been going
more to the non-Prussian universities.
Leipzig and Munich especially have had
large gains in that time, and the smaller
institutions like Jena. wuerzburg and
Freiburg have also made relatively large
gains.
