Too frequent waving even by an expert will dry the hair, make it | break and even make it prematurely gray. There are so many ways of sutting the hair that becoming lines ean be found for every face without using the curling tongs. E But if, like every one else, you're! wearing your hair short, and if it is straight and you must have it wavy ha sure that the waves are looge an wide. The best-looking marcel for short hair is a loosely-put-in wave, so Joose that there are only two or three ridges at the side, and slanting o 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 stralght 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 flat head round by using this wave. Even though loosly done, this tvpe of curling is obviously art rather than nature, which is nothing against it as Jong as the art is becoming. But you can achleve a natrallooking wave by your own efforts if you will wash vour halr, set it in place with small combs while it is twet, tie up Joosely with a net and dry it either in_ the hbt cun or by a hot fire. The heat helps to set the wave, and the net curls under the ends of the hair. | reached immediately. |enable | pendence, whereas New | them. | independence do | mation warning them against their | folly be taught | PAGE. orateness in Hats 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 a hat laden with flowers or feathers. If they can own a dozen hats a season then per- haps one or two may be of the much- trimmed sort. But for the woman who does with two or three, then {rimming, save in very homeopathic doses, has little appeal.

A. ’ THE EVENING STAR, SUB ROSA BY MIMIL Young Promises. Elsa, feels like a brute. She knows | herself to be a heartless, cruel fiirt, | but she just can't help it. She was very much in love with Gordon two years ago, and they spent many happy hours together. They talked glibly about marriage, and, Flsa's parents being very fond of the gentleman in the case, all looked very rosy for the two children he's just 21 now and she’s 19. Then Gordon was taken ill, shipped ff to a hospital and then to another tate to convalesce. Elsa didn't see him for three months. lere's the tragedy. She decided that there would be no harm in her istepping out with some of her girl friends and thelr sweethearts. But one evening, at a friend's house, she met another man—and oh, what a state of mind he threw her nto! For she realized that she was wild aver this newcomer. The name “Gor- don’™* didn’t mean a thing to her. She had a vague recollection that she'd known some one called that years ago, but it left her cold. When the peor young invalid re- turned from his long convalescence, she told him the horrid truth, and he promptly threatened eight different forms of suicide. Flsa sincerely thinks that she’s b haved ahominably—that no punish- ment is too bad for her—but she can't help herself. Gordon has announced that her only honorable course s to give up the new man and to keep her promise to the faithful old love. It's ton bhad, but Gordon is all wrong. Flsa has a perfect right to change her mind every 5 minutes if she wants to. It's true that she's hehaved un- wisely—but not with selfish eruelty. How many of vou girls have kept the first promise you ever made to the bhoy you thought you loved? It's almost impossible not to make a mistake or two before finally select- ing the man you want to be your hus- band. It's rather sflly to make solemn vows about these young romances, for they're almost sure to blow up one way or the other. Rut it's even more foolish to keep to these solemn vows against the dic tates of your heart If Gordon, while he'd heen ill. had fallen madly in love with a pretty sign alllances and secure European ald than by continuing the present contest as rebellious subjects of an other nation.
