ureS Is to the pastry makers. Only
the pastry makers here in Paris have
the advantage. The most determined
Of reducers will break away If the
pastries are sufficiently tempting. And
very few women here or at home are
tempted by the sight Of hat laden
with flowers or feathers. If they can
own a dozen hats a. season then per
haps one or two may he of the much
trimmed sort. But for the woman
who does with two or three. then
trimming. save in very homeopathic
doses, has little appeal.
This little mauve-blue hat has a
simple hand and bow of dark navy
blue ribbon; that lettuceEreen nat
shows only a bow of matching ribbon:
that very smart black satin turhan
has a. single silky green leaf posed
low at one side. and the black gros
grain heret that the modiste's assist
ant is bringing from the workroom to
try on the well dressed Frenchwoman
sitting before the mirror is not trim
med at all.
The modiste in charge suggests two
little stickpinS with long dart shaped
crystal heads. They are judiciously
thrust into the hat. There would be
a neat profit on those two little pins
MaiS non, 1t is clear TO see In the
mirror that the hat is smarter sans
all trimming. And so it remains.
To the French millinel'-eVen the
little noilliner-this condition is not

extremely careful fitting. And the

You can buy simple little hat sans

The Wavy Bob.

One Of the principal reasons for
wearing the hair short is to do away
with the necessity of constant way
ing. Too frequent waving even by an
expert will dry the hair, make it
break and even make 1t prematurely
gray. There are SO many ways OF
cutting the hair that becoming lines
can be found for every face without
using the curling tongs.
But If, like every one else, you re
wearing your hair short, and IT 1t is
straight and you must have 1t waVy,
be sure that the waves are loose ano
wide. The best-looking marcel Tor
short hair is loosely-put-in wave. so
loose that there are only two or three
ridges at the side. and slanting so
they make an uneven line across the
back of the head. This is much more
becoming and more natural looking
than a wave that runs straight round
the head The ends of the hair
should then turn under at the bottom.
A clever hairdresser can make thin
hair look thick and a fiat head round
by using this wave.
Even though loosly done, this type
Of curling Is obviously art rather than
nature, which Is nothing against 1t as
long as the art is becoming. But you
can achieve natral-looking wave
by your own efforts If you will wash
your hair. set it in place with small
combs while It is wet. tie up loosely
with a net and dry it either in the
hot sun or by a hot fire. The heat
helps to set the wave, and the net
curls under the ends of the hair.
When the hair is dry and you take
away the net and the combs the wave
will stay. in andrwill1 that

The great issue Is now squarely
before Congress where, alone. 1t can

A vote on Mr.. Lees resolution to-

about your ancestors. Ask in a quiet

Elsa feels like a brute. She !

Elsa feels like brute. She knows
herself to be heartless, cruel fiirt,
but she just can't help 1t.
| She was very much in love with
Gordon two years ago, and they
spent many happy hours together.
| They talked glibly about marriage,
and, Elsa's parents being very fond
of the gentleman in the case. ell
| looked very rosy for the two children
he's just 81 now and she's 10.
Then Gordon was taken i'll, shipped
off to hospital and then to another
State to convalesce. Elsa didn't see

Here's the tragedy. She decided
that there would be no harm in her
j stepping out with some Of her girl
| friends and their sweethearts.
| But one evening. at friends house,
she met another man-and oh. what a
state of mind he threw her into!
For she realized that she was wild
| over this newcomer. The name Cor
| don" didn't mean a thing to her. She
had vague recollection that she'd
known some one called that years ago,
| but it left her cold.
When the poor young invalid re-
turned from his long convalescence.
she told him the horrid truth. and he
promptly threatened eight different
forms of suicide.
Elsa sincerely thinks that she's be-
haved abominably-that no punish
ment Is too bad for her-but she
| can't help herself.
Gordon has announced that her only
honorable course is to give up the
new man and to keep her promise to
the faithful old love.
It's too bad, but Gordon Is all
wrong. Elsa has a. perfect right to
change her mind every minutes II
she wants to.
It's true that she's behaved un.
wisely-but not with selfish cruelty.
How many Of you girls have kept
the first promise you ever made to
the boy you thought you loved?
It's almost impossible not to make
ing the man you want to be your hus
band.
It's rather silly to make solemn
vows about these young romances. for
they're almost sure to blow up one
way or the other.
But it's even more foolish to keep
TO these solemn vows against the die
tates of your heart.
If Gordon. while he'd heen III. had
fallen madly in love with pretty
nurse who returned his affection. 1T
tie Elsa would have got the air.
AS 1t happens. she was the first to
grow cold She's not In a. pleasant
position, but neither Is she the in
human f7irt she fancies herself
She must do the common sense
thing-break off with Gordon-and
be more careful about the promises
she makes in the future.
Gordon has no right to expect her
to marry him when she doesn't really
love him.
He should be grateful that this reve
lation came before, not after. marriage

Why Is It the churches do not use
spiritual healing for the diseases Of
the body as taught in Christian
Science?
Answer-Becauae the churches IN
question do not admit the validity of
the teachings of Christian Science. Yet
they increasingly recognize the value
Of cooperation with medical science.
The Archbishop of Canterbury has
recently received the report Of a COM
mission upon the necessity and feast
bility Of this cooperation.
Faith combined with works. or sim
pie faith alone where works have
proved unavailing. are methods OF
healing the diseases of the body rec
ognized alike by the Roman Catholic
Church and by many Protestant
churches.
But these churches do not. so far as
know. believe matter Is non-existent
or pain mere delusion.
Is there any permanent remedy for
the race anita gonisrn which threatens
our common civilization in this coun-
try?
Answer-Iet us learn TO capitalize
our likes instead of our dislikes. and
to emphasize the things men hold in
common instead of impaling ourselves
upon their points of difference.
At the present stage of social devel-
opment the best remedy for outbreaks
