WHEN WE GO SHOPPING BY MRS. HARLAND H. ALLEM A “Jaded" Appetite. pronounce the word “jade” the hearing of most women is to sug- grest Uhe in Orient, and its romantic as- sociutlons. Hereabouts it is a semi- precious stone, and a small piece of jade when elaborately carved costs an appreciable sum_of mone There is not much ation in j quality, and usually any simple piecs derives it value from its special color- ing. The price vou will be asked for jade depends almost entirely upon how much and how skillfuliv it is carved. The Chinese themselves are masterly workmen in jade, and some of their best imported pieces cost more than the average shopper can afford. There are plenty of small jade orna- ments, however, which are within the reach of all Jade is commonly a sage-green, or & green-and-white stone. Its colorings are never uniform. There is a brown jade, which dates back to the Han dvnasty (206 B.C. to 220 A.D). Jade also comes in white and smoky gray tints. In these colors it is used mostly for large ornaments. Of course, jade is made into all sorts of jewelry. It is used for brac lets, “slave chains” and mecklaces. Jade, when properly carved, makes an exquisite seal ring. Jade pieces are also used as pendants to be suspended by ribbons. or silver and gold chains. Such jewelry is especially favored by Wwomen _in mourning or by those who wear dark clothes a good deal, be- cause jade enlivens one's costume without detracting at all from its | ,aies of carenss beef in Washington, dignity. Strange te say, jade doesn't come in large quantities from China, though { | | | much of it is carved there. The best variety of jade comes from Burma, India, and the Island of New Zealand It is rather costly to produce a_ weli caved piece of jade, and Chinese labor is so cheap that most of our importa- tions are finished pieces. Many women have asked, from time to time, how they can tell real jade from the many imitations which are on the market. Jade is the cold- est of all stones and the most difficult to warm. Hold a piece of jade of which you are suspicious in vour hand. If it remains cold the chances are that it is genuine. If it is easily warmed you can be sure it is imi- tation. It vou are desirous of buying a piece of jade, remember that jade is valued according to the workman- ship of its carving. It is better to own a small beautiful jade ornament than a large roughly carved piece. For the home there are jade lamp bases, little Buddhas, tiny panels to be used as book ends and many other useful as well as beautiful objects. One lovely old lady with whom T am acquainted possesses just one piece of jewelry besides her plain old wedding ring. Tt is a tiny carved Buddha suspended from a black silk ribbon. That single ornament, heau- tiful in itself, seems to be almost an integral part of the lady's personal- ity. Jade is just that distinctive. Prices realized on Swift & Company D. C..

EVENING b STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, lDorothyDix | Girl Has Right to Know a Man’s Financial Statu and His Idea of a Hushand—Man Should Know Girl’s Domestic Status. MONDAY, Urges Engaged| Couples to Outline Domestic Platform Laving the Cards on the Matrimonial Table ! “What sort of an understanding should a man CORRESPONDENT asks and woman have about practical things hefore they get married The fullest possible understanding, I should say. And it shouldn’t be any “gentleman’s agreement,” either, in which each trusts the other to do the fair and honorable thing and his or her part toward making the marriage a success, An engaged couple should get down to brass tacks and find out where each other stands on the domestic platform, and what each is going to demand of the other, and what each expects to give to the other. If this agreement could be put into the form of a binding contract it would be all the better, for husbands and wives are prone to forget the promises they make in their courting days. No sane human being would enter into a business partnership fn which he or she put all of the labor and enthusiasm and energy of which he or she was capable without finding out definitely beforehand what his or her status was to be in the new firm, what percentage of the profits he or she was to receive and how much the party of the other part was putting in and how much he or she expected to get out of it. Yet every day men and women rush blindly into a life partnership together without even inquiring into the kind of trade they are making or finding out what the other member of the firm considers a just division of the work and money. And only too often the man finds that he is married to a woman who takes all and gives nothing, and who considers that her part of the partner. ship consists in her doing the spending, while he does the earning. Or the woman discovers that she has simply sold herself into slavery, and that she is not only a silent partner, but a penniless one, as the senior member of the firm pockets all of the profits. Such being the case, it is no wonder that the firm of Benedict & Co. ends <o often in bankruptey, and I believe that nothing would do more to prevent this and to make marriage a success than for men and women to spread all of their cards on the table before they marry. Then each could take it or leave it, as he or she chose. PR WOMAN has a right to know before marriage, for instance, all about a man’'s financial status, yet the great majority of men never discuss business or money matters with their flancees at all. They speak vaguely of being able to support the girl they are courting, and tell her that they want to protect her from every hardship, and that her lily white hands shall never do aught but soothe their fevered hrows, and a lot of other high falutin nonsense like that And hecause they have heen good spenders, the girls jump to the con clusion that the men are big money-earners, and that they will live lives of case when they are married, when, likely as not, the men are going into debt for the very money on which they are showing the girls a good time, and they will have to economize after they are married to pay for the presents that were lavished on them before marriage. Certainly the honest thing for a man to do is to tell the girl he is asking to marry him just exactly the size of his pay envelope and thus give her a chance to stay single if she doesn't love him well enough to do his cooking and washing and wear shabby clothes. And if she does marry him, knowing exactly what his income is, she has no right to whine because she can't have a car and wear imported frock: Every woman has a right to know, on the safe side of the altar, what a man considers a fair divide of the family income. She has a right to know whether he will make a 50-50 division with her or whether he considers that the husband is the God-ordained purse bearer and that she is not entitled to any wages for the endless work she does, bu should come humbly to him and beg him for every penny and knock her forehgad on the ground with gratitude every time he bestows a whole nickel on her. very woman is entitled to know before marriage whether the man she marries is going to he a fireside companion or one of the roamers who do not let matrimony interfere with their philanderings and evenings out with the hoys If a man has no domestic instincts, he should tell a woman so in time for her to save herself from becoming a neglected wife. If, knowing this, she takes him, she has no right to bemoan spending her evenings alone. oo WOMAN has a right to know what attitude a man expects to take toward her after marriage and what his general ideal-of a husband is. ‘here are husbands who surround their wives with tenderness and love: who do all in their power to make them happy. There are other husbands who are grouchy and glum and selfish, and who treat their wives as they would not dare to treat any other woman in the world. Certainly a woman has a right to know which one of these she is getting as a life partner. A man has an equal right to know the kind of a wife a woman is going to make. He has a right to know whether she is going to make a real home for him or not: whether he is going to come home at night to find a tidy, cheerful woman waiting for him, with a good hot dinner smoking on the table, or whether he will come back to a dark house and wait for a iwoman to come in from her bridge or the matinee with some delicatessen | stuff in her hand upon which she will feed him. | He has a right to know whether woman indulg which run he she will consider matrimony gives a the privileze of wearing sloppy kimonos and eating onions and = in temper and nerves and generally throwing away the bait with he caught her poor fish, or whether she helieves it is up to a wife to end of the bhusiness as efficiently as her husband runs his. A man has a right to know hefore marriage a woman's financial views and whether she will keep with her allowance or not. He has a right to know whether he is going to have to live with a mother-inlaw and how many of his wife's relatives will camp in the spare bedroom. He has a right to know whether & woman believes that a husband should be the little tin £od of the household or a combination doormat and cash register for the convenlence of herself and the children.

The preamble is expected to be of a decidedly revolutionary character, asserting, in fact, that it has at last become necessary that the exercise of every kind of authority under the British crown shall be totally suppressed, and that it i abso- lutely frreconcilable to reason and good conscience for the people of these colonies now to take the oaths and affirmations necessary for the support of any government under the British king. Statesmen from the various colonies who are at present here in large num- bers are asking one another what such Hair and Warm Weather. If your hair has been coming out lately don't be too much alarmed. As soon as warm weather sets in the healthiest head begins to shed hair, and continues to do so usually for a month or six weeks. It is also apt to shed in late September and early October. But even though it is not a sign of ill health you should use a hair tonic. There are hundreds of brands of tonics on the market, and some of them are very good, though what is good for another head may not suit yours at all. You should ask a hair Specialist or your own doctor for a formula, unless you can work out for yourself your trouble and its cure. I am giving today the prescription for the best general tonic I know, and suggestions Tor changing it to suit specific needs. The formula is: Pilo- carpine hydrochlorate, 2 grains; pre- cipitated sulphur, 30 grains; carbon detergent, 30 drops; castor oil, 10 drops; alcohol (95 per cent) 4 ounces; tincture of cantharides, 4 drams; cologne, 4 drams; rose water (to make), 8 ounces. « - This is the plete formula, and spectal * valde 1s- that the pilo- BEAUTY CHATS achusetts Bay Colony has decided to refer the question of independence to the towns for settlement. This is not because of any doubt concerning the sentiment of the colony, but because the patriot leaders wish to give the people themselves a direct part in reaching the great decision, and because they want it to be clearly shown that the sentiment for independ- ence is overwhelming. The town meetings will say whether the inhabit- ants will solemnly engage with their lives and fortunes to support Congress it Congress should declare independ- ence of Great Britain.

If you are under 30 you will not need the pllocarpine, which is the most ex- pensive part of this tonic. If your hair is very dry use 20 drops of castor ofl instead of 10, or even 30. If your hair is excessively oily leave it ott altogether, but re- member that the best way to fight oiliness of the scalp is with oil, and that you should give your head an oil rub before the shampoo. If you have very healthy hair and no trace of drandruff leave out the sulphur. Maybell and Lilyan—A tar soap makes a suitable shampoo for dark halr, and a few drops of ammonia in the first water will help along the lather in removing , the excessive amount of ofl. You can Kkeep your hair relieved of the ofl and prevent unnecessary shampoos, if you rub with soft towels just as if you were drying the hair. You can do this every few days or as often as your hair looks packed from too much oil ir it. it should look even better -after the rubbing than after a shampoo. MAY 10, 1926. - !
