SUMMER MODES COMFORTABLE
 AND SMART

Everything that has been attempt ed in the interest of winning the war seems to have succeeded beautifully except the effort to standardize dress. There is just one reason for the fail ure of this effort, the incessa.nt de- mand for originality. Standardized; clothes lack inspiration ,and when that is taken out of dress practically nothing remains to make it worth while.
 The modes for summer are as prac- tical and comfortable as they are charming. Their variety makes them a source of intending interest, even though there are some creations far beyond the means of the most of us. More and more the wool jerseys are taking the lead for one-piece dresses, detracting attention from the vogue of crepe and satin combinations. The models in the various shades of tan, sand and beige are too lovely for de- scription, and their attractiveness is heightened by their extreme simplic- | ity.
 One of the best offerings in wool | jersey is in sand color trimmed with blue and green wool and silk embroi- | dery. The trimming is scattered about the collar, cuffs and tops of the pockets, the skirt having panels as well as pockets. The panel effect is even repeated on the front of the sim pie blouse. Both skirt and panels are gathered in high effect and attached l to the waist under a girdle of self l IL. long floating panel in the zenith ot it's popularity. It has been creeping in for some time, but seems now to have arrived and received universal approval.
 | Women who are making over last seasons frocks will find much use for both panels and tunics, for a. skirt of past seasons may be shortened and narrowed then hung with a tunic or panels and be converted into a most up-to-date confection. It is one of the prettiest fashions of many years, this of yelling and panelling everything and marvellous things are done even by women who make no pretence al clever designing. If one desire nov city and is uncertain about its effect the new fashion of draping the mate rial on the figure may be employed The drapery is allowed to hang ir lines most becoming to the wearel and may be changed as frequently as the fancy dictates. Often much o1 the beauty of the fabric is lost in the making, whereas the draping of the material on the figure displays it to the
 best advantage.
 In the realms of tailleurs, check
 velours has a place all it's own, beins
 used for stunning little Jackets worr
 with plain, narrow skirts. The jack
 cts for summer are either in Eton ol
 hip length and although they are am
 pie of line. their design suggests mar
 rowness. Nearly all of the smar
 models have collars of white tub sill
 or satin, for the white neckwear add
 charm to a tailleur in warm weathe
 and is always youthful in effect.

THROWING SHOES

The custom of throwing a shoe af- ter the bridal pair is a. relic of the old Jewish custom of striking the bride over the nape of the neck with the heel of a slipper as she enters her husbands dwelling for the first time.
 As in all Eastern countries the slip pers are taken off upon entering the house, they are ever in a handy posi- tion to administer punishment with, and the meaning of the blow was to teach the bride proper submission
 Little do people think, nowadays, when they throw an old shoe after the bride, with the rather incongruous 'fF'or good luck'' accompanying the missile that they are really following the Oriental custom of reminding the bride of the obedience which she is expected to give her husband.

SEVEN POLICE
 WOMEN IN STATE

Connecticut was the first state to give complete authority to policewo- men, according to a statement made by Dr. Valerie H. Parker, of Hart ford, chairman of the Health and Re- creation Committee of the Committee on Sanitation and Medicine, of the Connecticut Council of Defense. Con- necticut now has seven policewomen to look after the women in camp neighborhoods and Dr. Parker acts as supervisor.
 '"The problem of illegitimacy has not been increased to any particular extent by the fact that soldiers are encamped in the State" said pr. Par ker eve are, however, cognizant of the dangers of camp life to youth and are taking measures for protection. Supervised recreational activities have been introduced into camp dis tricts as one of the greatest remedial agents, giving, as they do, proper out let for energy and healthful diver | Sion."

BUYING A WIFE.

Marriage by purchase was once the most popular method of acquiring wife and still is in some parts of the world. One of the most perfect sys- tems in relation to this was that in use among the ancient Babylonians and Assyrians.
 They assembled all girls of mar riageable age in the space before the temple twice a year and sold them. The handsome girls brought high prices and the sums so received were turned over tos the homely ones as a counter In this manner every girl caught a husband, some by beauty and those less favored by means of the dowry attached.
 Marriage by purchase was also prev alent among the Anglo-Saxons at the time when Christianity first reached them. Every woman was under the care of some man, who was termed her mundbara, or guardian; and no one could marry her without having paid a sum of money as compensa- ton to him. The father was the guardian of his unmarried daughters; the brother, if the father died; and after him, the next male relative in line.
 If, however, the female was friend less and alone, she found in the king her legal guardian. The maid was es- timated according to her rank in life The first step in courtship. thereforeA was to buy the consent of the mund- bara; the lover was then admitted in- to the society of the one of his choice, and allowed to claim her in due course as his wife

 Dip the tips of the fingers in small saucer of heated olive oil, allowing them to soak for about 10 minutes The heated olive oil is absorbed through the pores, and very effective ly should ot first be given nightly. ly.
 After a. few minutes withdraw the fingers and dry them, leaving a lit tie of tie oil around the cuticle which is already softened.
 Then with an orange wood mani cure stick release the-clinging skin by working the stick around the cuticle and gently pushing it back. Ot course, if any ragged edges are pro- duced by this operation they should be carefully clipped with the mani cure scissors.
 Some cuticles are very sensitive while others are quite healthy and re- quire little attention beyond the daily treatment of pushing them back with the orange wood stick.
 Feed the Cuticle.
 Sensitive cuticle should be fed Whenever the hands are washed a lit tie dab of cold cream may be applied and allowed to remain for few min- utes. This can be rubbed off with a towel, always pushing the cuticle back.
 It doesn't require much time to keep the cuticle in good shape. If a little attention is paid to them daily they should look entirely presentable with out the ugly, ragged edges which com pletely destroy the appearance of an otherwise pretty hand and nail.

LUCRkzLA kokG themselves O m- pletely spoil the shape of the nails by maltreatment of the cuticle.
 While cutting the cuticle isn't in furious when the work is Sxillfully done, 1t is best not to have the cuticle cut when you can possibly avoid it. A tendency to stimulate the nail is promoted by cutting the cuticle.
 However, if you've neglected to care Tor the cuticle for any length of time you will find that it has grown stub born and thick. Naturally, it will require loosening and cutting so that the much desired half-moons may show.
 Give Daily Attention.
 By giving your hands daily atten- ton it should not be necessary to cut the skin around the nails. Some per sons have the cuticle cut regularly whether it's needed or not. This causes the skin to grow rapidly. Also it has the tendency to become thick and call lous.
 However, if the following sugges- lions are carried out the cuticle will be kept neat and in a healthy condi-

TIGHT COLLARS

Tight collars break down the mus cles supporting the flesh of the neck. Discolorations are due to the same cause for the constant friction of a collar thickens the skin and causes it to turn first yellow, and then dark brown.
