Hair over Forbidden.

All blondes who have decided to be-
come brunettes and all brunettes who
have decided upon a golden disguise,
take heed. The monthly drug bulletin
of the New York health department
contains the following warning: Lead
and silver salts were formerly the
main poisons to be found in hair dyes,
but the walls Of the would-be young
under the punishment Of indignant
nature who was said to hide 'her
lash in the purple hues Of a dyed mus
tache,' mor particularly the offerings
of their pocketbooks, have caused
many of the hair dye manufacturers to
use a coal tar derivative as the base
Of their product. This is known as
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.. 1t having become
evident that the use Of this substance
In dyes intended for application to hui
man heads was dangerous, such use
has been forbidden in this city,"

School Neiuhborliness.

In the city of New York, IA Of the
large public schools have been made
into community centers. Rollcr.skat-
ing Kinks, employment bureaus. social
clubs, reading rooms, lecture halls and
gymnasiums, are some Of the features
of these centers. And all their attrac-
tons are not for young folks alone.
The mothers have their clubs where
they listen to experts on all subjects Of
home interest, and where they ex-
change with each other views on com
mon problems, personal experiences
and friendship. This movement for
neighborliness has become widespread,
md In many cities the new school,
houses are being designed with partic.
ular attention to their prospective use
as centers Of the community.

otesy o. Yeung Man Hidden Under
Smoking Ledge Points . Moral for
Al Of Us, Especially In Thess
Troubled Times.

Have you read the storyf A trapper |
amid the snow-hushed hills Of western
Massachusetts, spied smoke issuing
from q ledge of rocks In the depths Of
q dense forest. He did not know what
to make Of 1t. All sorts Of fearsome
notions beset him rs he ventured on
attempts to solve the mystery. But
when he had summoned help and they
went In at the opening detected. bear
ing lanterns and all hands armed to
meet whatever might be encountered,
they discovered a lone man bending
Over n small fire in the act of roasting
a bit of meat. And they learned from
him that he was living there to escape
the service men Ire summoned to rem
der In war time!
The mystery If the smoking ledge
would serve somebody well to point
a moral or adorn a tale. For most Of
life's experiences that puzzle and trou-
BILE vi mortals are much like this OF
the smoking ledge. We c~onjure up no
end Of dire thoughts about them
about diseases. disasters and especial
ly such distresses as are now come on
the world. when the whole Of civilized
life Is like a smoking ledge. We think
Of nature as malign, Of fatefnl evil
powers as lying in ambush against us.
even of God himself as causing things
which confound us as we 60 the rounds
of common life. But by and by we dis
cover, In one instance after another,
that precisely what alarm and puzzle
and trouble us are really due to some
human alteration from right doing. We
are wrong in thinking that fate or ma
ture or God r responsible for the
mysteries of suffering and sorrow. The
truth Is that some human being who
has gone wrong is down under most OF
the smoking lodges that mystify us,
To get this clear in ones mind Is Of the
greatest importance, especially in times
like these.
This young man hid under the smok
ing ledge told a story wildly signih
cant. He was there to escape the duty
of all when ali that we cherish Is i'm
periled. He confessed that he lat
crept out at night to buy food in
town miles away-he couldn't suhsis
without drawing on the common pro
visions for welfare which are now il
Jeopardy. He acknowledged having
