Just go on and wear your hair as you will, in any way most becoming to you. for the goddess of fashion will nod indifferent approval on anything. For some months this capricious deity has refused to be interested in hair dressing styles. She did sit up and take notice when the bobbed coiffure made it's debut. It was so novel and so different, no one could help notic- ing. It is lovely style for youthful faces.
 A few young women were willing to go the length of cutting off bob ping the hair at the sides for the sake of the style, but many were not. These very sensible ones achieved a hairdress with the bobbed effect by bringing the hair out over the cheeks and turning the ends under. The back hair was disposed of in a flat coil low on the crown, and all held in place by much pinning and by bands of narrow velvet ribbon.
 Older women have remained faith fui to waved hair combed in a small pompadour and dressed with a knot, rather high on the head Others, with youthful faces, have been most suc- cessful with hair unwaved but pinned

POPULAR PUZZLE IN LONDON
Favorite Among Young Apprentices in Sixteenth and Seventeenth Gen.
 turies-How It Is Solved.

It has been suggested that the grass hopper puzzle was a great favorite among the young apprentices of the
 city of London in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Readers will have noticed the curious brass grass hopper on the Royal exchange. This long loved creature escaped the fires of 1866 and 1888. The grasshopper, after his kind, was the crest of Sir Thomas Gresham, merchant grocer, who died in 1879, and from this cause it has been used as sign by grocers in general Unfortunately for the legend as to it's origin, the puzzle was only produced so late as the year 1900. On twelve or thirteen black disks are placed numbered counters or grass hoppers. The puzzle is to make to 6 change places with those numbered z to 12, the vacant disk being left in the same position as at present. Move one at a time in any order, either to the adjoining vacant disk or by jump ing over one grasshopper, like the move in draughts. Nos. to 12 can only move in the direction of a clock hand, and the others the opposite way. Note also that and

THE VAIN FROG.

One day bullfrog hopped on an old log which lay, one end in the water, at the side of brook. He felt very important, for he was very large frog, and could make a very loud noise at night He looked at himself in the clear water and turned his head from side to side admiringly. T am a handsome fellow" he said. 'T am fat, and my eyes are big and bulgy; my coat is like green satin, and my vest fits like piece of kid" And he be- gan to puff up with pride. ..,5,
 All at once a dog came running through the woods, and seeing the frog, he parked and ran on the log, but it was so slippery he went back to the bank. What a noise you make" !" croaked the frog; land you have nothing to boast of, you are not as handsome as l am, and you cannot walk across a little log.'
 You need not boast so much," said the dog; "all you can do is to make a noise and splash in the water, and you look like green tomato ready to pop open"
 My coat is much handsomer than yours." said the frog. land my voice is considered one of the sweetest that are heard at night
 The dog opened his mouth wide and laughed. "Oh, dear!" he said. "If you could hear yourself, MT. Frog, you never would be so proud. I do not claim te be handsome or to have a good voice, but I am Sure that in both outdo you," and he made anoth- CT dash at the frog. But it was of no use. The log was too slippery.
 "You cannot frighten me-" said the frog. 'I am too big for you to bite. I can puff myself up to an enormous size"
 You have a handsome pair of hind legs,'' said the dog You have right to be proud of those" as
 The frog gave hop to show them better. "Yes," he replied they would look very well on any table, but am not anxious to part with them., u.
 And your vest does fit well,' said the dog. /.
 "Now I come to look yousover, and see you hop, you have cause to .be proud of your fine looks. It is pity you have to stay in the water so much

Embroideries for womens under garments-the sorts that are sold by the yard-have grown more and more sheer until now one must look twice to discover whether some of them are of silk chiffon or of swiss. Tine weaves in voile have proven to be prac- tical as background for dainty em- -fbrofdery patterns to be used in under wear because their wearing qualities are equal to those of the materials used in the body of the garments. In fact a good quality of sheer cotton voile embroidery will outwear the nainsook or muslin which it trims
 Speaking of sheer materials in un- dergarments. it is not to be over looked that chiffon and fine crepes come in for much consideration in the more expensive and less practical frivolities that are so enticingly pret- ty. Petticoats to be worn with neg Iigees. underbodices for wear with thin blouses and even less conspicu- ous garments are made of these fragile fabrics.

Grasshopper Puzzle.


 12 must be left next to the vacant disk, and try to find the fewest pos sible moves.
 The fewest possible moves in which this puzzle can be solved are 62. Here is one way of doing it. Of course, the numbers are those of the count CTS, and, as there can never be more than one vacant disk, each play, whether it be single move or leap, explains itself: 12, 1, 2, 12, Il, 10, 1, 2, 8, 4, 12, Il, 10, g, 8, 1, 2, 8, 4, 5; 12, Il, 10, g, 8, ', 12, 6, 1, 2, 8, 4, 5, 6, 1. Il, 10, g, 8, z. 12, 2, 8, 4, 5, 6, 1. 10. g, 8, z, 12, 4, 5, 6, 1, 8. 2, 12, 6, 1, 12. Whatever may be the number of grasshoppers going each way, the square of this number, added to four times that number, added to 2, will al- ways be the number of moves re- quired. Thus in the above case, >36 plus A plus equals 62.

The sum of money involved was not men toned. Schultz is third baseman by preference. He has been doing utility work for the Robins and is re- garded as a promising youngster.
 With Rochester in the International league last season Schultz batted .316 in 155 games and stole 30 bases. In 54 games with Brooklyn this year Schultz has batted .2S6 and stolen two bases. His acquisition is the first step by Bresnahan in campaign to get

The short baby waist is merely al- ternating strips of val insertion and swiss embroidery, with edges whipped together. Under the arms the en- broidery strips are omitted because at this point of most wear the lace is more desirable
 The short waist is finished at the bottom with narrow open beading which joins it to the skirt portion of the chemise. The neck and armholes are edged with val lace, set on about the neck with a very narrow beading. Lingerie ribbon is run in the bead ings. It is to be tied in full bows when the garment is adjusted.

One Way to Shorten Games.

After the remarkable success of Jack Chesbro in 1904, almost every pitcher in the American league was using the spitball delivery, or bluffing it. This fact caused the games to drag. Presi- dent Johnson, peeved because it was taking more than two hours to play every game, wrote his umpires for sug- gestions as to methods which might be used in shortening the contests. Most of the umpires replied at length, but Tim Hurst's answer was short and to the point. It read: Dear Ban: If you are really in earnest about shortening the games, try seven innings"

 Larry Cheney went to the Cubs from Louisville in the fall of 1911. In his first game against Brooklyn, which he won, 5 to 0, he had a finger on his pitching hand broken by line drive from Wheat's bat in the eighth inn ing. That ended his service for the season. Chance liked his looks so well he hung on to the big youngster, however, and in 1912 Cheney justified Franks judgment by becoming the leading pitcher of the Cub staff.
