NEW YORK. March 26-It boots you

This spring for the shoddily shod will

Never has the running gear been in

Because of the great popularity of the

popular rejuvenated form it comes with

buckskin in all shades of gray. tan. and

the black patent kid vamps are also eX-

polka dots and checks. On all the new

For evening and dance wear, the plain

and it is equally smart to match your
slipper to YOUR gown or to wear a con-

Sport shoes of white buckskin, with
soles equally snowy of white felt or

Granted. But what would she have
to do with almost all of her $40?
She would have had to spend it on
board room, clothes, and other fixed
expenses, leaving her very small
margin for savings. After paying
her own expenses she would have
had perhaps only few dollars left.
Compare her now in her own home

The Truth About
Cinderella'S Slipper

Poor Cinderella! In countless story
books she has been the proud pos
SCISSOR Of an irnpossibly small glass
slipper. Now we hear that the fam
Gus piece of footgear was nothing
more romantic than a slipper of
squirrel-skin.
1t all happens because a French
lecturer Miss Cecile Hugon, has
turned her attention to the fine
points of old-time fairy stories. She
has found that Perrault. who wrote
the original cinderella" story, de-
scribed the slipper as a ''soulier de
vair," and 1t was translated as if
the "vair" or squirrel-skin. We're
"verre," or glass, which is pro-
nounced the same.

Present Position.

In contrast to these, Miss Gillett
pointed to the code of 1896, in erect
today For the protection of women
in the District, the following law
has been passed:
An property-real, personal, and,
miXed-belonging to a woman at the
time of her marriage and all such
property which she may acquire OF
receive, shall be her own property
as absolutely as II she were unmar-
ried, and shall be protected from 'hc
debts of her husband"
Il doubt very much that, under this
law. a District judge would be able
to make such broad ruling as that ot
Judge Murchauser, of New York,
said Miss Gillett. 1T is understood
in the District that "a statute in dero-
CATION of the common law. Is to be
construed liberally.' Indeed, you VIII
find in courts of today that the ten
denCy is more and more toward n
liberal construction of the laws,
especially with regard to women.
In the New York case, the Judge
seemed TO mako a broader ruling
than was justified. l am glad to say
that the tendency of the time is to
emancipate women from the harsh
ness of the old common law, and to
place thems upon az equal fsoting

USING SOAP
SPOILS THE HAIR

Soap should be used very sparing-s

your hair looking its best. Most
soaps and prepared shampoos con-
tain too much alkali. This dries the
scalp. makes the hair brittle. and
ruins It.
The best thing, FOR steady use is
just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil
(Which is pure and greaseless), is
cheaper and better than soap or
anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thorough
ly. Simply moisten the hair with
water and rub 1t in. 1t makes an
abundance of rich, creamy lather.
