To accompany this type of coiffure many dresses have capes or berthas of matching lace. The reappearance of fans, which now flutter in every attractive bhand, keeps up this illusion.

For Instance, a single plant of wild mustard, stinkweed, foxtail, pig weed, or campion produâ€" ces from 10,000 _ to _ 20,000 seeds; wormâ€"seed mustard about 25,000; shepherd‘s purse about 50,000, and tumbling mustard about 1,500,000. With such productiveness, soils beâ€" come quickly infested with weed seeds, although, on account of their inconspicuousness, their presence is not fully realized. Massage as Cure For Insomnia _ The germination of weeds as well as other seeds, is affected by heat. Many kinds of weed seeds, such as some grasses and mustards will gerâ€" minate in the late autumn or early spring when the soil is cold. Others such as buckwheat and lamb‘s quarâ€" ters, require a warmer soil, and the seeds of foxtail and purslane conâ€" tinue dormant until stimulated by the heat of summer. Late autumn or early spring cultivation is not efâ€" fective in destroying the seeds of weeds that will germinate unless the soil is warm. \ | The seeds of most annual weeds when embedded in the soil retain their vitality for several years. The seeds of the mustard family and others, when ploughed down after ripening, seldom germinate the folâ€" lowing year and not until they arei brought near the surface by further cultivation. Light surface cultivation during the early autumn serves to stimulate . germination in _ freshly ripened weed‘ seeds. Thus, a considâ€" able proportion of them may be deâ€" stroyed, while, on the other hand, by deep ploughing the difficulty is simply deferred to succeeding years. Put on perfume at least a half hour before you‘re ready to leave. That way, you‘ll be subtly fragrant, but you won‘t leave a heavy trail of scent behind you. Keep liquid powder on hand. It is perfect makeup for your back and it won‘t rub off on the sleeve of your partner‘s dinner coat. Apply body oil or lotion after each bath. . It may be a bother but, . in the long run, it‘s easier than trying to soften arms and elbows with tissue cream _ while your escort nervously waits for you. Weed Seeds on Farms You may care for your skin in the same efficient manner. Using a bath brush on back, shoulders and arms each time you bathe is far better than giving them a frenzied, hurried scrubbing just before putting on a dinner gown. ‘ Use a depilatory once a week; a deordorant twice a week. _ Rememâ€" ber that most deodorants are not to be used within 24 hours after shavâ€" ing or using a depilatory. The same applies to the nails. Manicure them yourself or have it done by a professional. But be sure to do it on the same day every week. For instance, every girl should go to the hairdresser for a shampoo and wave at regular intervals. If Friâ€" day is the day you have some free time, then visit your beauty â€" shop every Friday. If your hair is in fair condition and the operator is a good one, you‘ll look well groomed at all times.

Even a good swimmer should avoid taking foolhardy chances in the water. Avoid teasing inexperienced swimâ€" mers. Teach them to stay in shallow water, to beware of hidden holes, sudden droys, heavy breakers and unâ€" dertows. Be helpful. Avoid swimming alone in unâ€" frequented waters, or at night.

The bleaching mask is applied in the same way on gauze. An excelâ€" lent one may be made by mixing bleaching lotion and bleaching powder together to form a creamy paste. A mild bleach is prepared with fine oatmeal and warm milk, to which has been added a few drops of perâ€" oxide. This should be removed with a little warm milk. PERIODIC PAIK __An oil and a bleaching mask are the first essentials. Clean the skin thoroughly with a cleansing â€" cream or lotion, then remove any stray eyeâ€" brows. In trimming eyebrows, by the way, the very latest style is to train them to go upwards at the ends. It gives a much more youthâ€" ful expression.

At anothor meeting presided over by Henry Ward Beecher, a woman arose and entered upon tiresome harâ€" angue on the rights of women, lastâ€" ing halfâ€"anâ€"hour. The audience evinâ€" ced unmistable signs of weariness, but Mr. Beecher sat calm and undisâ€" turbed. When she finished, he moved slightly in his chair and with a quiet smile said: l "I should like to supose," he said, "the case of a man who iives an upâ€" |right and moral life; who is faithâ€" ful as a husband and a kind an generous father, a good citizen, takâ€" , ing part in all good works, gives freely to charity; in short, leads a life above reproach,. Yet he is a proâ€" |mneed disbeliever in Christianity, never goes to church and is nothing 'hu than an atheist. "He would have my best wishos wherever he went." Without changing his position, Mr. Beecher, with an engaging smile, replied: *"Now, Mr. Breecher, I should like to ask you: ‘Where does that man go when he dies?" " At a Friday evening prayor meet. ing in Brooklyn, New York â€" M Bishop was present â€" a man arose and with an air of "watch me now and see me put him a poser." asked Mr. Beecher a question â€" it heing question â€"time. This _ delightful Henry _ Ward Beecher story is told by Josoph Bucklin Bishor (in his rcminiscenâ€" ces, Notes &nd Ancedotes of many Years.") "I jumped out of bed," he afterâ€" ward told a friend, "and ran thrce times around the room, utterin« as I went, ‘Vanity Fair,‘ ‘Vanmty Fair, ‘Vanity Fair‘ " _ Many writers have been tbed workers. Mark Twain loved to write in bed. Tennyson was fond of comâ€" posing poctry while lying amon« the bedclothes, smoking a long clay nips and drinking gin and water. H2ll Caine often worked propned u» on the pillows. The title of Thackeray‘s novel, ‘"Vanity Fair," came to him while he was lying in bed at the Ol4 Ship Inn at Brighton, on the south coast of England. Then there was Marie Corcili. the "daring" novelist of bygone days, who in writing scrials was someâ€" times late with the insta‘monts. In desperation â€" Mr. Mitchell says â€"â€" her agent and her broiher would hustle her into her stady and lock her in. She would kick the docr furiâ€" ously for a while, but after a litJe would settle down and do a good morning‘s work. | The members of an author‘s famâ€" ily are often a help in seeing that he keeps his nose to the grindstone, says Edwin Valentine Mitchell (in "The Art of Authorship"). _ There is a story told of Mrs. Masefield â€" wife of John Maesfield, Poet Lavre. ate of England â€" to the effect that when the Masefields first acquired an automobile, Mrs. Masefield wrote a not to a neighboring author at Boar‘s Hill (Oxford), asking him to come up and teach the poct how to operate the new car, but adding that she allowed her husband only certain afternoons of freedom durâ€" ing the week. To this note the wife of the author to whom Mrs. Maseâ€" field wrote replied that whiie her husband would be glad to tsach Mr. Masefield to drive his car, unforâ€" tunately= the days she allowed *oer husband off were not the same ons on which Mrs. Masefield let hors co out. And so to bed. And there was the whopper about the echo in the Big Horns which took eight hours to return, so that a man on going to bed had only to yell "Git up!" and next morning promptly the echo would rouse him with a loud "Git up!" And the listener would have to gaard himself from falling into the trap prepared, so serious was the air of the spinner of yards, adds Mr. Vestal. "Look hyay;: Dang me, if that ain‘t some of them hairs still thar! Don‘t they look the same color as the hair on my head, now ?" _ And the narrator would scan the back of his hairy paw anxiously, "Sure, it froze my hair till it was as stiff as wire. Sure, I put my hand up to scratch my head, and domned if it didn‘t come away as full of spines as if I‘d stuck it into a porkyâ€" pine‘s back. Tuck me all night to get them hairs outen my fist." How cold it used to get in the Wild and Wooly West a hundred years ago is evidenced by this whopper, retailed by Stanley Vestal (in his "Life" of Kit Carson, famâ€" ous trapper, frontiersman and ldian fighter). The point of any whopper was always that the narrator was its hero: OF THE FAMOUS 41 u9 T
