Just how the modish girl manages
to achieve certain things is the ques-
ton that engages the attention of
other girls and inspires the wonder
ment and awe of the sterner sex. How
does she get on tiny turban over the
mass of fluffy hair which crowned her
head aforetime? Where has said hair
disappeared? How does she take on,
with the foolish little turban, a no
body home" expression that suits it
exactly but makes one look twice to
be sure of her identity? Some of these
questions can be answered and some
cannot, because the maid herself hard
ly knows how she manages.
Just now some of the new hair
dressing styles demand that the fore
head shall be uncovered and that sim
plicity in the coiffure be made a
feature of it's attraction. Some daring
souls have even gone to the extreme
of combing the hair straight back
from the forehead and twisting the
ends into plain, high coil at the top
of the head. A round, young face with
an abundance of hair to frame it may
manage a coiffure of distinction by
such simple means, but nearly all
people need soft, curving lines about
the forehead.
A clever coiffure is shown. in the
picture, in which the hair is not
waved but laid in pretty curves about

ment of Hawaii is that the bar against
Chinese immigration ought to be re-
| moved so far as it affects the islands
at least. Several delegations waited
upon me during my stay to urge that
this be done.
Natives Decrease in Numbers.
"The number of Portuguese is
large. They make excellent Ameri-
can citizens There is also consids

Filipinos have not proved valuable
as workers, and their immigration
has practically ceased.

remarkable to note how this race
has been transformed from savagery
to culture in 100 years There are
numbers of Koreans, Jamaicans, Span

pies.
Americans are comparatively few.
They do the big business of the coun-
try. The descendants of the Ameri-
can missionaries are the richest class
of the islands and stand the highest

Industry of the islands.
There are two main industries

facture of sugar, and the raising OF

Mysterious Zones of Silence.

A meteorologist of Zurish, DR.. A. de
Quervan, directs attention to new
theory which he calls zone of ST.
lence. He says that strong noises like
explosions or the sound of cannons,
while heard in normal way in their
immediate neighborhood, are not heard
in distant zone. even when most in
tense.
1t is now known as historical fact
that Frederick the Great on August II,
1850, won the battle of Liegnitz be-
cause the Austrian generals Daun and
Lasen asserted that they had not heard
the sound of cannons. 1t was sup
posed at that time that the statement
of the Austrian. commanders was an
untruth. but it is now believed that a
zone of silence existed Similar
phenomena have been observed recent
ly. In 1908, when the Jungfrau rail-
road was being built in Switzerland, a
fearful detonation took place, caused by
the explosion of $4,000 Kilograms Of
dynamite. The noise was heard at a
distance of 30 kilometers, but not at
140 kilometers. Strange to say. how
ever, the noise was heard SO kilometers
from. the last named zone.

No one fails to appreciate the charm
of the lace-trimmed and fluffy night
dresses that make up the mass of
these garments. Always their pro-
ducers are presenting new designs
that captivate the eye with the dainty
combination of ribbons and laces.
But there is another charm which be-
longs to the hand-embroidered gown
it is the charm of elegance as well as
beauty. There is nothing quite equal
to find hand embroidery in expressing
a refinement of taste, in undergar-
ments and other lingerie.
The needlewoman who can do fine
work can provide herself with lingerie
fit for queen by virtue of her needle
craft Or If she wishes to turn her
accomplishment to profit she may be
sure that an appreciative world is
ready to admire-and pay for-expert
needlework. No one should put a low
price on first-class hand embroidery
not time alone, but ability to do and
quality of workmanship are to be con-
sidered in fixing it's price.
A fine handembroidered gown is
shown in the picture. All edges are
scalloped and finished with even but
tonhole stitching. A floral spray and
butterflies are portrayed on the sheer
batiste surface by means of the needle

butterflies and the use of appropriate

the face by pinning locks of it at each
side to form what are scaled .iwater
waves" One way of doing this is to
dampen the hair and comb it back. A
band is then bound tightly about the
head and the hair pulled forward in
curves by means of the toilet comb.
The waves are then pinned with small
wire pins in the position left by the
comb.
The back hair may be arranged in a
psyche knot, as shown in the picture,
or in three fiat coils across the back
Of the head. Or it may be worn in a
high coil at the top of the head. In
any case the band is not taken off
until the hairdress is finished.
Narrow velvet bands about the hair
are very fashionable, and they are
also very useful in holding the hair in
place.,

to the two rather excited women al
ready there, calm, cool and confident.
Things were going very well with
Rena Royalton; she had man in her

were going to be married again, why
not now? Wasn't Hall Bonistelle

and decided to accept him. She en-

blonde. Her eyes returned to Carolyn,

not interest Rena Royalton so much
as did Carolyn herself.

Carolyn, always thought you were a
LADY," and she walked swiftly toward
the door,
ooh, don't go yeti" Carolyn called
out You've got a laugh coming to
you, too Rena. You haven't heard our
news, yeti"
Mrs. Royalton trembled on the
threshold. Your news? What d'you
mean?"
Listen here" said Rosamund, walk
ing over to her coolly. Hall Boni.
stelle proposed to Miss Dallys at ten
thirty this morning and he proposed to
me at a quarter to eleven. Now, what
time did he propose to you?"
Mrs Royalton put out hand trem,
bling with appeal. Carolyn" she i'm
plored.
Carolyn nodded unsympathetically.
Mrs. Royalton dropped into a chair,
speechless, and burst into tears. Caro-
lyn walked up to her and laid hand
on the heaving purple shoulder
Brace up" she said, ''it won't hurt
but a minute! See here, Rena, were
you carried off your feet by his wild
wooing, or, did you take notice of the
time?"
''Why-here this morning. Caro-
lyn," Mrs. Royalton sobbed, 81 left just

afresh.
Carolyn nodded to Rosamund. Make

she accepted him, why he ever pro
