writer reported.
"Four out Of five Of the manne-
uuins in the most important fashion
houses had their hair down." she
continued. sometimes 1t was up In
front, but invariably down in back"
This doesn't mean that chic wo-
men are turning again to Holly
woods version Of the long bob. Hair
Is long, but neatly so. It has line
and shape, is youthful without being
frowsy.
The smartest version is brushed
upward at sides with side sections
rolled forward. There are two or
three soft curls on top just over the
forehead, while long back ends are
turned under in a narrow Page Boy
roll. This roll-not to be confused
with the Page Boy types OF three
seasons ago-stays neatly back, al
most as If the hair is caught In q
clip or with a ribbon bow. It isn't
but 1t appears to be.

shown. Clips and old-fashioned bar
rettes are widely used to hold long
black ends In chignon effect.
There are chignons In profusion.
Girls who are letting their short,
"baby" coiffures grow like to pin on
chignons during the growing -out
process.
Then, too, long ends are dressed
to resemble chignons. Sometimes the
back hair is parted in three sections,
with each section arranged In a soft,
fat curl. The curls are fastened to-
gether with bow, large or small,
or with some kind Of clip or barrette.

the coiffures Of the 1905, 1t shows

not strained, and Is finished with
soft curls or rolls. It's charming for
evening and would be nice with q
tiny, shallow-crowned hat If you can
find one.
Rinses have captured fashions
fancy. Several Of the notables who
came back from Paris recently had
their hair tinted as well as down.
Henna rinses are popular, giving
dark brown hair wine-colored glow
and blond locks o light red cast.
Among white-haired women, blue
and violet rinses are gaining IN
popularity. The latter shade ranges
from subtle suggestion Of lavender
to real purple.

SPONTANEOUS CURE OF CARES
With notable exceptions dentors
are hardly qualified to pass judment
on scientific developments In the
general field Of medicine, chemistry,
nutrition, physiology and patho-
logy, even Though they be highly
skilled In the art Of applying new
developments in practice. Ask the
average good dentor whether cavi-
ties in teeth ever heal spontaneous
ly without filling or other treatment
and generally he will scout the idea
or imply that 1t is absurd.
Yet numerous competent inveSti-
gators have observed spontaneous
healing Of cavities In the teeth Of
children In institutions, when the
ordinary diet Of these children has
been supplemented with suitable ra-
tons Of high calcium phosphorus
foods and vitamins @ and D.
Trouble with too many good dem
tors is they have been trained in q
school aloof from medical school
where they should > be trained.
Graduation from dental school
brings their near-medical studies TO
an end. After that some salesman
carries on their instruction. The
salesman brings the new principle
in form ready for the dentor to
use.
This Is no place to cite references
for medical or dental or other read
ers particularly interested in newer
knowledge In this field. There are
plenty Of authoritative reports in
the literature to substantiate the
assertion that spontaneous cure Of
dental carries can happen, whether
the conventional idea Of the dentor
that once dentine Is laid down II
can never be replaced by new dem
tine, Is correct or not.
The possibility OF spontaneous
healing Of cavities Is mentioned, not
to encourage neglect or procrastina-
ton in having decayed teeth treated
but rather to impress upon the read
er the value and importance Of O
corrective protective diet and o lib
eral supply Of calcium, phosphorus
vitamin G and vitam0n D, In In
fancy, childhood and early adult
life.
This spontaneous healing Of cavi.
ties was first observed In o group
Of children with diabetes, by doc.
tors (not dentors) on the star Of
an institution-they were studying
primarily the effect Of supplement-
ing the restricted diet with miner
ais and vitamins.
Best food sources Of calcium and
phosphorus:
Milk, not less than quart day
for children in their teens better
three pints daily. Butter, cheese
(any and every kind Of cheese)
peas, beans, any and every kind OF
green's, nuts, peanuts, raw carrot
turnip, cabbage. Plain wheat (not
any refined wheat product)
