ABOUT HAIR NETS

The Carmen Hair Net which you buy at your dealers may look like a very simple and easy to make toilet article, but q matter of fact years of experi- mentatiOn, much labor, money and time were required to produce it in it's present form.
 Carmen Hair Nets are woven on a long loom in continuous strips 30 to 40 feet wide and many feet long
 After coming from the loom they are dyed and finished and cut into the pro- per individual lengths. The strips are then separated by pulling out a draw thread.
 After being carefully inspected for imperfections they are given to women and girls who insert the elastic cord or tie the knot in the ends of the net and pack them in envelopes.
 The best silk hair nets area made in France. Great care is exercised in dyeing and finishing the Carmen Hair Net as nets improperly dyed arae liable to be tender and tear easily.

SWEETS INSTEAD OF ALCOHOL
Spencer packing clothing to be

Sugar acts a a quick restorative and energizer and as such is. with the wise. taking the place of alco- hol. It is a matter of common ob- servation that those who eschew all coholic drinks from distaste or prin- ciple are apt to be fond of sweets and there is a saying in our cities that whenever a candystore comes into a locality a saloon moves out.
 The reason of this is apparent when we recall that alcohol is the first stage in the decomposition of sugar; so he who takes the sugar before it's fermentation gets more en- ergy and also avoids those toxic ef- fleets of alcohol which are SO un- pleasant-at least in other people.
 Shaw was quite right in holding up "the chocolate soldier as the scien- tific fighting man. Candy and mar malade are being served in the tren- ches instead of the traditional rum ven in the British army.
 Since sugar contains no waste and TO water 1t is a very concentrated form of food, and a little of it brings up the value of ones dietary more than is ordinarily realized. A couple of Jumps of sugar will give some fifty calories, that is, about , per cent of the energy needed for a days work.-New York Independent.

 DUST GROWN FILED
 IN SUPERIOR COURT
Quo Warranto Proceedings Are Be gun in Fight Over Office of State Law and Legislative Reference Librarian Which Cronin Con
 tinues to Hold

Suit to oust Con r. Cronin from the office of state law and legislative reference librarian was filed yester- day in the superior court by Mark Dun bar, who was appointed to the office by the board of curators. Quo war ranto proceedings were instituted following the granting of the formal application by Judge Stanford.
 In his complaint Dunbar states that he was appointed state law and legislative reference librarian by the board of curators on July 10, and recites that he has filed bond as re quired by law. Cronin the complaint states, refused to surrender the of- flee, when Dunbar appeared and asked him to turn it over, and con tinues to hold it without authority.
 Cronin who was appointed by the legislature, holds the office under q section of the law creating the state law and legislative reference library which stipulates that until otherwise provided by law he shall be the li- brarian. Kibbey, Bennett and Ben nett are attorneys for Dunbar, and C. r. Bullard, former attorney gen eral will represent Cronin.
