Every woman knows that 1t Is costly
to follow fadS ana fancics in dress. II
is not only strain upon the purse, but
upon the Judgment as well. There are
fads which prove costly in another way.
These are the fashions which cling to
YOU long after they have ceased to he
in order.
Al present n number OF girls are bob
hing their hair, largely for the reason
that a leading danscusc Is dressing her
hair In that way. You should hesitn tie

fashion. 1t is not at all likely that
many girls will cut their hair, and Il
majority of those who ito will consider
it a folly VIXEN 1t is too late.
This mode of dressing the hair an
pears every now and then. but not
many adopt it, The result is tina, II

Is out of order the girls who have fol-
