Florence, Italy.-If Dante Alighie.i

Nothing has been so evident during
these postwar days as the need of
Italians for footwear.
The recent public demonstrations
backed by the Camera del Lavoro, or
chambers of labor" where stocks of
goods of all descriptions In the hands
Of profiteers in many cities were COM
Wandered and ordered sold at reduced
prices, precipitated unusual somer-
saults Of trade, but the widest scram-
bles were in the shoe stores. Here
the demand for shoes produced scenes
Of the widest disorder.
Frenzy Over Footwear.
In Rome, Milan, Forll, Bologna and
Naples the search for shoes continued
many days. The struggles In each
city were so great that few law
abiding persons tried to secure shoes
There appeared to be no attempt at
fitting anyone. Shoes were handed
out In boxes and the buyers took
them, seemingly not caring whether
they fitted or not just so they were
on the basis of a 80 per cent re-
duction In price. 1t was a common
sight to see man loaded up with
shoes for his entire family.
To obtain admission to a shoe store
was fully as difficult as buying a
ticket for world series baseball game.
For hours the shoe hunters would
wait in long lines before they were
finally admitted into the storerooms.
Shoe merchants fixed two hours in
the morning and two in the after
noon for the opening of their stores,
but the long line was waiting for

are feeding them once a day. And
once day the cart goes around to

they eat raw; one can always see
children nlbbling It."
From Batoum comes word that
"there are 10000 Greek refugees

being pushed out By the Russians.
Thousands are fed at an American
soup kitchen. Adana has 1000 refu-

half a pint Of rose water, with ten
drops of tincture of benzoln added To
prevent the glycerin becoming rancid
is excellent.
This mixture should be used after
the hair has been made ready for
dressing by removing all the tangles.
This done, one should put about half q
teaspoonful of the mixture in the palm
OF the left hand and rub the right into
It, With both hands the hair is gent
ly rubbed and patted smooth from
forehead to neck, oiling 1t, but so
slightly that the application is not Wis
ible. Afterward dressing proceeds In
the usual way. Occasionally a woman
should use a slightly wet brush after
the oiling. This must not be applied
every day or the effect of too much
water will be drying.
Another liquid for the same purpose
Is made from one-quarter Of an ounce
OF gum benzoin and four ounces Of
high-proof alcohol. After the gum Is
dissolved the liquid is strained through
coarse brown paper and two ounces
of castor oil and half a dram each of
oils OF geranlum and bergamot are
added. This is put on by the same
process as was described above.
Neither of these Is to be regarded as
O tonic or used as substitute, for they
are distinctly dressings, and the man
ner in which they are put on In no
way affects the scalp. To feed the
scalp it is necessary that whatever is
put on shall be rubbed into the pores.

TO GET SHOES

shoes several hours before the sched-
uled time arrived.
Impatience on the part of the
crowds caused, in most cases, the sum-
mary seizure Of goods and the resort
to ransacklng. Food stores were
treated first in this way, but the law
lessness soon spread to clothing and
shoeshops. Stores ransacked would
be depleted of every ommodity-eat-
able, wearable or portable. There
were examples in Spezia of carrying
out all the commodities, loading them
In a motor truck and taking them
some four or five miles outside the
city for distribution. Whole hogs
heads of wine were rolled out of the
city in this way and distributed.
1t seemed as if the mob had desig-
mated for them the stores to be loot
ed. There was apparently the most
systematic pillaging of those accused
OF war profiteering. Merchants
known to have violated government
tai regulations by selling prohibited
articles during the war were treated
in the same way.
Soldiers sent to restore order in
some cases were charged with accept
ing gifts from the rioters and at other
times filling their pockets with eat
ables, including biscuits, fruit, nuts
and chocolate.

Care Of the Hair.

Women who have not the time OF
money to take scalp treatments can
do about as much for themselves as
specialist can do for them in the
treatment of ordinary hair troubles.
Ten minutes attention given to the
hair and scalp each day is more bene-
fetal than infrequent professional
treatments. The remedies f,r the
usual scalp and hair difficulties are
simple and inexpensive. 1t is regu-
lar and persistent care that can be
depended on to repay the effort.
Cleanliness requires a shampoo at
Intervals Of two to four weeks. If the
scalp is healthy and the hair sufficient
iy abundant this, with a brisk, brief
brushing every day will keep the hair
In good condition.
To Cure Dandruff.
Take a thlmbleful of powdered re-
lined borax, let 1t dissolve In a teacup-
full of water; first brush the head well,
and then wet brush with the solution
and rub the scalp well with 1t. Do
this every day for week, then twice
week, until no trace of dandruff is
found.
To Improve Hair.
The best shampoo for oily hair and
dry scalp is an egg shampoo, made by
adding one ounce OF cold water to one
well-beaten egg; rub mixture well into
the scalp and on the hair, rinse in
warm water, then in cold water. dry
thoroughly, apply tonic and massage
the scalp for ten minutes. Each night
use tonic and massage for ten min

The first remedy for q woman whose
hair has begun to be stiff Is to expert

Storekeepers are refusing to run their
businesses on the new basis, while
there is evidently a general shortage
throughout the various cities affect

Many well-to-do families who have

themselves suddenly unable to buy

WOOL AND COTTON
POTENTIALLY STRONG
Undercurrent of Firmness Is
Discernible.
Special Despatch to TIE suH.


BosroN, Feb 1.-THE American Wool
and Cotton Reporter will say to-mor-
row:
IN the Boston wool market there Is
an undercurrent of strength and con-
siderable optimism is expressed by a
number OF men in the trade. The labor
difficulties have not been universal, as
the woolen mills have not been affected.
These mills are scattered all over the
country.
Nineteen million six hundred and fifty
thousand pounds OF wool, besides 1880
bales of wool, will be offered at the next
Boston auctions. which take place Feb
ruary Is to Fl. These include 100000
pounds OF pulled wool and 5000 900
pounds of secured wool, kinds which
were in much demand at the last series
o: sales. They are used largely by the
woollen mills.
Business Is being transacted In the
trade to a certain extent in all kinds of
wool. waste and noils. Pulled woods and
secured woods are more available than
| any other kind. Considerable trading is
being done by dealers who are selling
| wool for manufacturers, some OF whose
| supply is not needed now. Some specu-
| iatlon IN South American WOOL Is re-
ported.
The technical position OF the cotton
market is bullish. The South Is holding
strong In spite of labor conditions and
the decline. Cotton owners in the South
are selling their low grade cotton first II
possible and holding the higher grades
for more advanced prices
| Two factors at least tend to main
tain strength In the cotton market. One
Is that jobbers are bound to get rid Of
all surplus high priced goods in filling
their orders and another Ia that as soon
as the peace treaty is signed It Is en-
pected thai Europe will buy a largo
amount of low grade stocks. There is
a large potential buying power among
the mills.
ultimate consumers are waiting for
lower prices. but there is a great under
Lying strength in the market and it IL
a question whether these lower prices
will be realized soon, II at all"
