Girls! Try this!! Before curling or
waving your hair with pins, papers or
a heated iron, just moisten each
strand with atalpa water and you will
be delighted how natural the curls and
waves appear and how long they last
in spite of wind, dampness or perspir-
alton. A few ounces of atalpa water
will cost very little at any drug store
md there is nothing better to help
retain the curls and waves or to
soften, gloss or fluff the hair and to
make it look thick and abundant.

PLAN TO RAISE L0BSTERS
Plant on New England Coast May
Be Opened to Care for 1917 Brood

1t is expected that lobster raising
plant on the New England coast under
the direction of the bureau of fisheries
Will be opened in time to take care of
part of the brood of 1917. In the sun
dry civil appropriation act, approved
July l, $4,000 was provided for the es-
tablishment Of this plant, and officials
of the bureau of fisheries have been at
work locating the site.
The bureau Matched 12S,7e0, 900 lob
sters on the Maine coast in the year
ending June 30. but many of them
probably will be destroyed by fish, be-
cause they are too young to protect
themselves. Also. in the existing plants
of the bureau the confined space al
lowed to the lobsterlings causes can
nibalism to be practiced.
The new plant will permit the raising
ofthe Holsters to a point where they

the song was received by the public and
