TN COIFFUREs, as in everything
j else pertaining to dress, the new
spring season has brought with 1t
greater variety In styles than has ar
rived for many year. There are the
Victorian coiffures.and that very youth
full and original arrangement of the
hair called the Bobby" Then there
are the coifrures in which the hair Is
uncurled, combed back plainly and ar
ranged in long soft puff on top of the
head and extending down over the
middle OF the forshead. This Is only
&c 4 on youthful wearers.
Nearly ali the new colffures show
the hair waved and curled and follow
ing the contour OF the head closely
They rely upon short curls more than
Perth Amboy evening news., 1915-03-30

upon any other one feature, unless 1t
be ornamental combs, for their elab-
oration. These two are introduced In
many positions.
But exceptions which suit the style
and features of the individual are al
ways commendable. The pretty Golf
fure shown In the picture Is arrang d
in rather boyish lines about the face,
with long side part and no curls. 1t Is
wholly redeemed from this masculine
touch by the Psyche knot at the back.
One cannot believe that any other
style would be quite SO becoming to
this particular face. and this is the
conviction which makes any coifure
successful.

Slipped on over a frilly petticoat of
silk, or n of plated crepe de chine,
an embroidered coat of l~ight-colored
china silk is pretty enough to put one
in a good humor in the early morning
hours. Here is pictured a contribu-
ton from the Orient that is a thing
OF beauty and a joy as long as it
lasts.
The coat is cut like a kimono, on the
simplest Of lines. 1t is somewhat longer
than a t~hree-quarter length, and is
slashed up at each side to a depth of
about eight inches at the bottom.
There is a shaped band of silk about
the neck and down the front opening.
The fastening is made with frogs of
silk cord that match the silk in color.
In the picture a coat is shown made
In a lovely shade of grayish blue silk
and lined with white silk of the same
kind. The color makes the best of
backgrounds for the long sprays of
flowers and leaves that wander over
the surface Of the coat. The chrysan.
themum. shaded from pink to white, is
the flower so faithfully portrayed in
the embroidery. The stems and leaves
are in a soft gray green.
The embroidery appears at each
side of the front and across the back,
with one long spray extending down
the side. Buds and leaves are scattered

A DOCTORS EXPERIENCE
Medicine Not Needed in This Case.

1t is hard to convince some people
that coffee does them an injury! They
lay their bad feelings to almost every
cause but the true and unsupported
one.
But the doctor knows. His wide ex-
perience has proven to him that, to
some systems, coffee is an insidious
poison that undermines the health.
Ask him if coffee is a cause of con-
stipation, stomach and nervous trou-
bles.
Il have been a coffee drinker all my
life, and when taken sick two years
ago with nervous prostration, the doc
tor said that my v system was
broken down and that l would have to
