Soft, Curly, Wavy Hair
 Now Easy To Have

Beautiful, fluffy. natural looking curls or waves, without the of the ruinous curling iron, nre now possible for every easily and quickly acquired, and with benefit to the life and health of the hair. It is only necessary to apply a little liquid silmerine before doing up the hair using a clean tooth brush for the purpose. The hair will have a most delightful curiness and lustre. without the least suggestion of grease stickiness, and will be quite controllable, no matter what the style of coiffure. As a few ounces of liquid s- merine from the druggist will last for months, it is quite inexpensive to use.- Adv

THE
 LOVE CAMf.
 A CITY ROMANCE BY VIRGINIA TEHlE NEkyarn
CHAPTER S2


 Donald Muir and Winifred Scott were silent during the first part of their drive uptown.
 The girls excitment of the past few hours was evaporating, leaving her with a vague sense of depres- sion. Again and again she remem- bered Richards face. She must see him soon and explain to him that even if she did indulge in the pleas ures Of the well-to do, she still sympathized with the poor and with him.
 But could she make him believe this? He would be too polite to seem to doubt her-yet surely ap- pearances would lead him to sus- pect that she was like all the rest of the Fashionable world" whom he had accused of heartlessness towards the poor, down-trodden working man.
 She would back up her assertions by material help. This Is what she had determined to do before this evening. She would prove to Rich ard that few hours enjoyment could not altar her convictions.
 She made sudden resolution Now, while Donald was in the soft ened and gentle mood that had been his this evening. she would make her appeal to him.
 Donald" she ventured. T want to talk to you about little business matter. Will you come in for a while when I get home?"
 He began an eager acceptance, then checked himself as he consulted his watch.
 q wish I might" he regretted But 1t Is so late that l really ought not to-"
 "You think it would not be con ventional," Winifred accused. "Perhaps," he admitted. At least I think I ought not to give occasion | for comment from Mrs. Bates or anyone else" She remembered how Richard had come, In and sat with her until mid night. But Richard knew little and cared less about conventionalities She was glad Donald was not aware of the young reformer's recent call "But I want to talk to you." she | insisted. Cant We drive home Q long way? Surely that would not be indiscreet, would it?" His answer was to order the taxi driver to go home through Central park.
 You might make the tour of the park" he added.

BUILDING SLOWS UP

The building wave which has been sweeping over this section of Bir- ,mingkam has shown decided slackening, according to contractors and builders, some of whom indicate grave concern over the situation Fri day. The steady advance of costs and wages are two of the reasons given by contractors for the slowing up in construction. Aside from the new high school and few houses being finished, there has been noth- ing new started in this section for the past several days. One contrac- tor said yesterday that lumber prices had advanced over 30 per cent lately and that brickmasons, carpenters and plasterers all wanted or had re- ceived advances in their scales. The exodus of labor from Birmingham to other points has also tended to sug- gest to skilled workmen the oppor- tunity of asking for greater earn ings. It was stated in Ensley yes terday that it was nothing unusual for bricklayers and others engaged in building trades to draw $60 per week fer Al hours work.
