show q slight increase in height. Strap

An oddity in q duck shoe after a

American hairdressers are no longer
depending on information from Paris,
and have decreed that decided innOva-
tons would take place in coiffure
styles this season.
Fashions in hair arrangement, Ike
all other styles, are not created at a
moments notice but for logical rea-
sons and usually follow the styles in
millinery. There is always one type
which suits the average person best.
If you are in doubt how to dress your
hair becomingly and haven't the
"knack" to arrange it in the manner
which is "a la mode" take a lesson
from a halrdresser and you will be
many times repaid in satisfaction.
The present style of coiffure de-
pends much upon neatness-the heads
are models of fine grooming. II a
barette Is not worn, the hair must be
carefully trained and pinned in place
with fine hair pins, or net pressed
into service. BE careful not to have
the net too tight around your face, as
softness is one of the attributes of the
present day coiffures
Those who found the tight hair
dressing trying, will be gratified with
the change, which shows a slight full
ness at the crown and the upper part
of the back hair. The hair is drawn

This explanation of the origin and
cause of sorehead suggests means for
the prevention and control of the dis
ease. In almost every case that has
been reported to the writer, the poul-
tryman remembered that the litter in
the poultry house had become damp
and moldy, or that moldy feed had
been fed, or that the chickens had
been roosting in a warm, damp house,
where mold was probably present. 1t
can be stated with assurance that an
outbreak of sorehead is impossible
where there are no conditions among
the fowls favorable for the develop
ment Of mold spores. Hence, at this
season OF the year especially, the
poultry should be kept in a dry, we'll
ventilated, sun-lit house, with dry lit
ter on the floor If the litter becomes
damp, scatter it over with fork so as
to dry 1t as rapidly as possible and
prevent its becoming heated and
moldy.

we have the martial note sounded in

rather unusual to talk Of high shoes at
spring time, but strangely enough
there is a strong inclination to show
many inches of well shod feet under
the abbreviated skirts.
The military boot for spring shows

soutacho braid, gilt or silver buttons
