Sanitary liquid Hair Remover, has be-
come an important tSilet necessity. Il
IS essential that the hair be removed
sleeveless evening gowns, or the sheer,
transparent blouses are to be wopa
without embarrassment. Observe the
women in the ball room, on the stage,
and in the fashionable restaurants.
Any form OF cutting or shaving un-
desirable kair should be carefully
avoided. as this not only increases the
growth but coarsens IL more and more.
FL Rado removes hair from the face,
lip, neck or arms for a much longer
period, and Instead Of coarsening the
hair IL becomes finer with each appli-
cation. All you have to do is to satur-
ate the hair thoroughly with a little
Ell Rado, and In few moments the hair
becomes harmlessly dissolved. You then
wash on with some plain water and tha
hair is all gone. while the skin is left

In the shapes Of hats for little girls,
the -brimmed hat promises to
continue as q favorite. At least Ave
out Of six of all the hats shown may
be relied upon to carry soft, moder-
ately large crown upon a gently droop-
ing brim. The brims are more or less
wide and more or less flexible, the
wider ones providing the floppy, grace
fully curved lines about the face that
suit girlhood 80 well.
A hat for daily wear, to and from
school, or otherwhere, and one OF vel

The hat for school wear Is made up
In several novel weaves In woolen
fabrics and has plain crown and a

important factor In It's makeup. The
brim may be turned up or down at
any position. The crown il quite plain
and finished at It's base with a band

this hat above the commonplace.

minded of primeval savagery. One
need only see the stevedores, at Port
au Prince, pounce upon the bones that
are thrown down to them by sailors.
They are naked to the waist, and
their black bodies glisten as they tum-
bio over one another in their bargcs,
fighting and scratching. trying to get
at a bone. Their screeching Is hid
eous, and when one of them clutches
the prize and tears the flesh with his
teeth, until another snatches 1t away,
one thinks with disgust Of unclean
beasts.
Perhaps one Haitian In twenty can
read and write. The educational sys-
tenn is a farce. Yet, the inhabitants
are usually devout. If village Is on
fire Zone of the pleasing pastimes of
warning factions), the negroes will
leave their huts to burn and toll fran
tically to save the church.
The lack of public works Is pitia-
BE. Naked children, and grown ones,
too, loll like swine In the ditch water
OF the public streets. The only cleo
trio lighting In the country Is that IN
the presidents palace. In all Haiti
there Is not an illuminated street.
The explanation of all these wretch.
ed conditions may be summed up In
ono word-politics. A boy Of six is
brevetted a colonel In the army.
Wholesale smuggling, winked at by in
terested officials, cuts down the ex-
port tax. The children Of the infiuen-
tial are immune from the conscript
system, but the under dog of the sys-
tenn must abandon his little clearing
to the women and serve his term as a
soldier, which In Haiti is worse than
being tramp. The postmaster of
village pays his bills in postage
stamps, giving double.

Black and white footwear has been

violence Negroes fell heir to magnifi-
cent plantations after the expulsion OF
their French masters. But they show
a poor accounting for their steward
ship. They have squandered their
subsistence in civil war and the lux
ury of sluggish ease. A family here
and there camps in the wilderness, liv-
ing on coffee that grows wild, picking
the fruits on every side, and perhaps
growing few yams. Should man
aspire to what he could call farm, he
would have to leave it for military
service, or perhaps see it ruined by
ravaging hordes of armed politicians.
Consequently, the vast natural re-
sources of the country are not ex-
plotted. The island has been called
the richest of all the West Indies.
Anything that Is planted will grow
and yield crop after crop the same
year. The hills are covered with for
ests of fine wood, practically un
touched. Cotton might one day mean
great wealth for Haiti, but it's an
nual export now does not exceed a
few thousand tons. There are also to-
bacco, hides, sugar, corn, rice, rich
metal deposits, and the great staple,
coffee, the production of which has
fallen off of late years by almost
half.
White Mans Influence Resented.
But should foreigner attempt any
thing for the development or uplifting
of Haiti, he is fretted by obstacles at
every turn. The negroes have wanted
nothing of the white man. They are
absurdly jealous, absurdly suspicious.
The cost Of the white mans absence
is misery, but Haiti chooses to pay 1t.
A fair-sized transport, circling the
coast, could take away every foreign
er in the country. They number scarce
ly 500, mostly Germans. The negroes
number about a million and half.
At every turn, the traveller is re-

ernment, Is land Of palms, land OF
dreams and Incidence. The people OF
the island own lazy Africa for moth
er. They are the creatures OF DALI
ance, they are good-natured, and quick
to laugh, showing their white teeth
and the whites of their eyes.
But they also have the thoughtless
cruelty of children. In spite of their
natural slothfulness they rage under
their tropic sun with the energy OF
bloodthirsty beasts, wrecking their
fiowery paradise. They suspect the
white man, fearing return to slavery,
and they carry on constant political
feuds with each other. On all sides
are evidences of suspicion and hatred.
The island Is q land OF decay.
The boards of the houses are cracked
and rotting. There are negroes In
rags everywhere, lazily shufiiing
about, doing nothing. What Is pic
turesque is of dirt. There is no ma
tional dress, no distinctive local color.
The impression one gets is of Q
"coon hollow" such as the slums OF
our southern cities might offer. But
the lightheartedness OF our own dar-
kies IL missing. Ono feels that the
spirit has been taken out Of these
Haitians. The sun glares bright and
hot, yet there is heavy cloud that
depresses. When voices are raised,
they are rarely mirthful, but high
strung, quarrelsome, In a peevish
strain.
Not Far From savagery.
Without the white man, the blacks
have been sinking gradually to their
original savagery of the African jun
gle. Their enlightenment, such as
there is OF 1t. is only initiative. For
instance, an election is but the old
tribal war cry, attended by scenes OF

The skirt is plain and gathered
with little standing ruffle about the

with shallow scallop bound with the

gether, the dress goes well with the
very new hat which is worn to such
advantage with it. This costume Is

the meat, then add one large, mellow

Embroidered Dress.

bolero effect are gained by means OF
embroidery work done in outline
stitches and French knots. II the
work is done with colored thread on
white linen or fine pique. the two
features stand out more prominently.
A crushed girdle of linen to match
the color of thread used for embroid-

There Is full bow with short-stand-

the back. One small. metal blossom
rests on the brim at the left side.
There Is nothing startlingly new or
unusual In these hats although the
season offers some very pretty inno-
vations for those who are looking for
them. There are odd four-cornered
brims and hats with crowns made IN
sections that are laced together with
silk cord. There are transparent
brims and occasionally one sees birds
or flowers, or little chickens, or duck
lings, cut out from velvet and applied
to velvet hats In contrasting color.

jointly an island comprising
roughly about $4,000 square
miles, and having total pop
ulation of nearly 100000.
Haiti has nearly the population Of
Santo Domingo, but only little more
than half it's area.
For 100 years Haiti and for half
that period Santo Domingo have been
a cause of continual anxiety to the
United States. Since gaining their
independence both have been in a
state of constant upheaval and blood
shed as a result Of practically un-
broken succession of revolutions. In
the last 20 years United States naval
vessels have been in almost constant
attendance about the island, and ma
rines have several times been landed
. for the protection Of foreign life and
property. 1t is no exaggeration to
say that Haiti and Santo Domingo
have cost the United States more
money in the last 20 years than would
have been spent had this government
assumed responsibility for and control
over the island.
The story of Haiti Is story Of mis-
cry. The characters are childish ne
groes, who play at dignity, spill blood
and do no work. In natural advan-
tages, Haiti is land Of fertile opu-
lence, but what is human there Is de-
based and wretched.
A race of simple children pretend
there at being kings and emperors and
presidents. All to themselves, they
possess part of a wonderful island,
where once they were slaves. They
had the entire island at first, but their
quarreling gashed an ugly frontier
across, marking off Santo Domingo,
and now the sets of warning factions
are multiplied.
