MOVIE ACTRESSES AND
THEIR HAIR

Did it ever occur to you that every
movie actress you have seen has lovely
hair, while the most popular count
their curls as their chief beauty? In
fact, many are leading ladies just
because OF their attractive looks. In
quiry among them discloses the fact
that they bring out all the natural
beauty OF their hair by careful sham
pooling, not with any soap or makeshift,
but with simple mixture by putting
a teaspoonful of Canthrox (Which
they get from the druggist in a cup
OF hot water and applying this instead
OF soap. This fun cup OF shampoo
liquid is enough so it is easy to apply
it to all the hair instead OF just the
top of the head. After its use the
hair dries rapidly with uniform color.
Dandruff, excess oil and dirt are dis
solved and entirely disappear. The
hair is so fluffy that it looks much
heavier than it is. its luster and soitness
are delightful.-Adv.

n TOW that our fall fashions are
somewhat moro established
We look almost In vain for the
substantial one piece frock Of serge
which has SO comfortably bridged over
the season until the heavy winter
suits and fur coats were needed. 1t is
not here; our patriotism and our pock-
etbooks lead us instead to the silk, vel
vet and woven materials, such as
tricolette. tricotine and silk jerseys
When we now and then come across
the serge or woollen frock we find it
combined with some Of the other ma
terials mentioned. There Is a deter
mined effort apparently to get away
from the woollen frock and leave this
warm and heavy fabric for the SOL
diers' needs Thus we will clothe our
selves until the really heavy winter
arrives in dresses SO beautiful in de-
sign and material that for one can
not bemoan the serge frocks, service
able as they have been.
Now that tho silk. the satin and the
allied materials are recognized as the
established choice Tor our one piece
Utility dress, We pass on to the idea
Of the general make. Except for COL
lars and the neck arrangements there
are few changes to be noted. We know
that the matter OF length is still left
t. choice, though some of the smartest
frocks l have seen are quite ankle
length. There persists a rumor that
skirts will be fully sixteen inches from
the floor. and those who predict this
shortness also talk of puttees and high
topped boots to meet the discrepancy
in length.
Spiral Puttees, Perhaps.
As our shoe tops have already been
regulated and there is no leather for
puttees for general wear. can foresee
only the spiral puttee. such as privates
in the army wear.
Low shoes with these puttees will
doubtless be worn by women-cer-
tainly the low cut shoe and its ac-
companying spat will be much in evil
.dence. 1t is remarkable the way the

turn 1t to use with the help Of the
petite couturiere. Only one or two
dresses are shown at the time; your
eye has time to take in the subtle

the correct thing.

Alas. for the stout woman! She has
