lilly lace outlines the flange of leg
horn where 1t is set on to the chiffon,
and the underbrim is faced with chit
fon which allows the black lace to
show through. The round crown Is
set on the brim without band.
A beautiful wreath of moss roses
and buds and an occasional huge pansy
blossom make up the decoration of the
crown. They are wonderful copies of
the natural flowers. A bow of wide
velvet ribbon with long hanging ends
is tackled against the underbrim at
the back. A spray Of the moss rose
buds and single pansy make up a
bouquet that is sewed to the long ends
of velvet about midway Of their
length.
This is an elegant example Of the
picturesque in millinery which is car
ried well by women of the type of Miss
Stonehouse or other tall, youthful
wearers to whom large hats are be-
coming Those who possess leghorns
are fortunate; they are in great de-

Miss Stonehouse, whose high-bred
type of beauty carries off the splendid
things in clothes, seems fitted to mas
querade as silken-robed princesses and
queens pictured in romances of long
ago. The strenuous life of the NOV
ing-picture actress is not reflected in
the calm eyes and serene brow that
the fans" know so well in this actress
of the silent drama.
To her type belong just the sort of
clothes in which we catch a glimpse
of her through the eye of the camera,

beautiful In rose or blue and in cop

FINEST OF ALL WATERFALLS
Traveller Must Visit British Guiana
to See the Grandest Cataract
In the World.

A little way back from the coast OF
British Guiana the traveller enters
practically unknown land. The ground
breaks sharply up to high plateaus
and rugged mountains and the jungle
throws a green barrier across the
way. The man who would find his
way up the river must be prepared Tor
rapids and cataracts, for careful pad
ding, where a mistake means dis
aster, and for long portage and toll
some climbs. Therefore few men at
tempt the journey. although the per
feet waterfall" five times as high as
Niagara, is there to reward their ef'
fort. Mr.. Warfield describes such a
trip and what he found at the end OF
II.
Here was a mighty river, pouring
with a force that suggested terrible
wrath, over a precipice 500 feet high,
down into what seemed unfathomaDle
depths.
THE top of the fall is slightly re-
entrant and measured at the time OF
my visit 400 feet across. The distance
from there to the first obstruction Is
TAI feet, while the total drop is 49,
1t is therefore nearly five times as
high as Niagara, but its finer proper
lions, its concentration in this one ire
mendous phenomenon, make 1t incom-
parably more grand. 1t is the perfect
waterfall, the most beautiful mani
festation of Natures lavishness and
splendor.

The comb is an excellent imitation

on to a back which is scroll-like In

Foot Comfort.

The more the feet are bathed and
rubbed the more comfort you will
have. Rubbing the soles of the feet
with a raw lemon is very restful after
the bath. Keep the toenail cut straight
across, never cut down on the sides.
and the cuticle around the nails should
be kept loose. A strong hot salt bath
is very restful for the feet.
