Veil Should Be Affinity of Hat
by ANNE RITTENHoUsE.

Veils are as tempting as the apple
in the Garden of Eden these days.
And therein lies a difficulty that the
wise woman recognizes before she
makes her purchases. For smartness
demands that the veil should be the
a nifty Of the hat with which it Is
worn. Recognizing this, many mil
liners have q trick Of fastening the
veil to the hat with the original
construction. They know that even
a masterpiece Of a hat may be made
commonplace or ugly or ridiculous by
the wrong veil.
For the multicolored fowered hat
a French conceit that American mil
liners are adapting to American types
the veil OF cocoa color or biege is
regarded as the best accessory. 1t
must be very fine and soft-toned
veil, tending to soften the coloring
Of the flowers over which 1t is draped.
Sometimes when the hat shows an
upturned brlm massed with tiny now
ers the milliner simply takes a bit
OF beige or cocoa lace and fastens 1t
across the front. gathering it up at
the side or letting it float in the air
according to the type of face over
which the hat and veil are to be worn.
The chief disadvantages of these
attached wells is that they are per
ishable. Most women wear a hat
much longer than the life of fairy
meshed veil. The original attached
veil must then be discarded and a
, fresh one attached. One might as
well learn this trick first as last.
The Spanish veil dies hard. When
| il is worn today it is Of softer lace
than that of A season or SO ago-a
fact that makes il more becoming
| to most American women. Some
| times it is worn draped around the
front of the hat with a single END
! hanging at the back and sometimes
a long Spanish veil is arranged with
| a long end hanging down at each
| side. II you select it let II be the
predominant trimming Of the hat
Never combine the black veil or any
veil Of predominant figure with the
/ ffowered hat.

Beauty.Making Shampoos.

The number and variety OF sham
poos are legion. There is the plain
ordinary soap and water wash, cleans
ing but not otherwise beneficial
sometimes positively harmful, because
few women use enough soap in tho
first place to take off all the dirt,
or have the patience to rinse out all
the soap. Then there is the sham-
poo with some ready made powder or
liquid Some of these are all right
hut most of them, particularly the
cheaper ones have so much SODA in
he powder and SO much alcohol In
ihc liquid that they are frequently
worse for the hair than letting it
stav dirty. They are made for con-
venience and therefore they must
contain soda or alcohol to dissolve
the grease quickly and to make the
hair glossy. The only trouble Is that
their continual use leaves the hair
too dry and brittle.
Then there Is the crude oil sham
poo which is most beneficial, par
ticularly for dandruff. Thick crude
oil or :f you can't get that, olive oil,
heated as hot as you can stand It,
should be rubbed thoroughly into
the scalp and allowed to stay on
over night. Next day the hair should
be shampooed with hot water and a
good soap, preferably liquid CASTLE.
The hair will have to be soaped
three to FIVE times to take out all the
oil and then rinsed very thoroughly
The tar shampoo. which is also good
for dandruff. is slightly more difficult
because the tar and oil mixture must
be applied to every part Of the scalp
with a brush and allowed to stay on
fifteen minutes and removed by
vigorous shampoo with good soap.
The egg shampoo is easiest and
awfully good for the scalp. An egg
is beaten thoroughly, rubbed in and
allowed to dry. then washed out with
soap and water. This takes dirt
grease and dandruff from the scalp
and leaves the hair soft and glossy.

VOLSTEAD ACT MUST
 GO, SAYS ANCHORAGE

ANCHORAGE, Feb. 16-The Alaska bone dry law or the Volstead act must go, in the opinion of attorneys here. The Alaska bone dry law, in opposition to the Volstead act, is in effect the medium whereby a liquor case originating in Anchorage will be carried to the highest courts in the land for a final decision, at torneys here state.
 Under the Volstead act a man twice convicted of offense against the law may be fined and imprisoned in the penitentiary. Under the Alas ka bone-dry law he may be fined and sentenced to less than one year in a Federal jail. Juries deliber- ating on cases where the defendant has been convicted under the bone dry law and afterward tried under the Volstead act have been com pelled to strike from deliberations all knowledge of prior conviction save where t affects credibility of wit nesses. For this reason attorneys say, the dual laws are ineffective.
