WOMAN'’S PAGE Bags for Town, C ountry and Shore BY MARY MARSHALL. PARIS. It is in the small accessories of dress nowadays that woman demands endless variety and change.

And because she has less change in these large matters of dress than once was the case she de- mands more novelty, more change in such details as scarfs, gloves, jewelry and handbags. The cheap—palpably cheap- hand- bag mars any costume, and most of the best-dressed women at present are avolding any of the too obvious ensemble effects in bags. To be sure for occasional wear during tha Sum- mer you may sport a parasol with handbag painted to match. You may have a hat trimmed with the figurel material from which your lug Is made. But usually there must be a rather subtle harmony between your bag and your costume. The time hay passed when women wore green calf shoes with green calf bag to match— with steel buckles on the shoes to match the clasp on the hag. Very smart for the time being are bags made of flne quality printed linen or chintz. Heavy printed silks are also used—a pleasant change from the silk brocades we have been carrying. One of these printed siik bags is of lovely Chinese fabric -avith a background of Chinese blue and a white and floral pattern in jade, cop- per and canary vellow.

Declaration Now Signed. PHILADELPHIA, August 2, 1776.— The Declaration of Independence which was adopted by Congress on July 4 was signed today by the mem- bers of Congress now in Philadelphia. In accordance with the vote of July 19, this charter of our new nation’s freedom had been handsomely en- grossed on porchment, and the sign ing took place after the parchment had been carefully compared at the table with the original. The only sig- natures which had been placed on the original on July 4 were those of Presi- dent John Hancock and Secretary Charles Thomson. Fifteen members of Congress who had a part in the preparation and pas- sage of the declaration were not pres- ent today. They will he permitted to sign at some later date. Several mem bers who were absent on July 4, as well as others who have since been sent to Con . will also have the opportunity to ‘s John Alsop has resigned since 4 because the Declaration is against his judgment and inclination. He will never put his name on the parchment. On the other hand, Robert Morris of Pennsylvania, who Tefused to vote for the Declara tion, has now signed it and will sup- port it loyally. His colleague, John Dickinson, who stood with him against issuing the Declaration at this time, did not sign’today. Robert R. Livingston of New York, A& member of the committee which drafted the Declaration, is among the non-signers. He returned to New York shortly after July 4. and has been constantly engaged there in the pa- triotic cause in the Erave emergency caused hy the arrival of the British army. The same is also true of Gen. George Clinton, John Jay and Henry Wisner, other New Yorkers, who are fully entitled to the honor of having their names on this great document, distinction of attending today's sign- ing. Thomas McKean of Delaware and Matthew Thornton of New Hamp- shire, also absent today, will doubtle: sign later. who will be known to posterity as the “'signers’ ‘of the Declaration will be the identical group which gave the Declaration to the world. The fact is that the formal signing by all the mem. bers was hardly more than an after- thought.

The women are to affect rather a broader tos and a lower heel than even now.

Adopting and never relapsing from proper shoes, or, better, no shoes whenever the shoes may be dispensed with, will prevent the progress of bun- fon from bad to worse, if this reform 1s not too long postponed.

This keeps the patient off the feet for two weeks.

Are you tired of hearing “toile Jouy” in shops, and puzzling ¥ head as to just what it means. course, you are probably able identify it by a glance, but haven't you really wanted to know just what this popular material and design was? Tolle de Jouy was originally a | French printed figure. The French word “tolle” means linen or cotton cloth, and Jouy is a town in France where it was made. Oddly enough it was a German who opened the first factory in Jouy. He first conceived the idea of engraving his designs on copper with a soft pointed tool. He had blocks made a vard square so that toile de Jouy designs are quite large even toda: Chiefty among toile de Jouy designs | you will find scenes from peasant :ife, and chronicles of a historical nature. There were others however; one de- sign recounted the story of Paul and Virginia, and another showed the var- fous processes in the making of toile de Jouy. If you really want a decorative ma- terial you can_hardly improve upon toile de Jouy. In high-grade materials the designs are perfect in detalls; in fact, they look etched. In the very highest grade it {s not uncommon to find small pieces framed. Usually one color was used in a design. Red, blue, mauve and yellow were the most popular colors. You may be fortunate enough to get old stuffs which after 150 years still retain the richness of color which mod- ern dyes can't imitate. A val of interest in toile de Jouy led to the manufacture of copies. These may be had at a small fraction of the cost of the originals, and they are just as decorative and beautiful The material is especially well suited for use with early American and French furniture. It is charming not only for window draperies but also for chair covers, bedspreads, wall pan- and lamp shades. Wallpaper is also made in toile de Jouy designs, and. it is often possible to match the design or shade or both .of material and paper. When buying toile de Jouy consider the appropri- /3 .

Your Baby and Mine BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED. Hair Health. Many hables come into the world with a heavy head of r, & matter over which most mothers feel a great deal of pride. Personally I like bald- headed babies, it being practically the only time in any one's life when he can be both toothless and bald-headed and still look adorable. This first growth of hair seldom lasts. The restless infant soon has a gay bald spot on the back of his head and the fine new hair gradually falls out and is replaced by the stronger growth. Some children never seem to lose the first fine fuzz and they are the type whose hair stays the same length and the same consistency for years. Hair has a direct relation to the general health. There was more than & good reason why Samson, being | such a strong man, had such a fine growth of hair. It was because of | his supreme health that he did have it. | Children . whose hair is thin and | brittle, lifeless and lusterless, are suf- fering from a lack of proper nutrition and the way to help the hair is not | by external applications but by in- ternal ones. Take the nicest, plumpest rat (no, you don’t want him?»—and feed him on an inadequate diet and his coat of fine eilky, glossy hair will get brittle and thin. As soon as his diet is com- pleted by the proper foods his coat f hair will return to normal. S0, instead of pouring oil on the children’s heads, pour some cod liver oil into their stomachs. Milk, fruit, vegetables, eggs and cereals every day will grow hair on their heads. lIsn't it foollshly simple? And that's why it is so hard for people to bell it. They would much prefer to buy an expensiye bottle of useless tonic and rub it into their scalps than to bother about what they eat. HOW IT STARTED BY JEAN NEWTON. “Last But Not Least.” ‘And last, but not least,” a speaker graciously prefixes to the name of the person whom he mentions last in order to vitiate the possibility of an implied slight in what may be considered the position of least mportance. It is in this sense that the phrase. now so popular in common speech, had its origin. We trace the phrase back 1o the sixteenth century, when we find its first recorded use in line 444 of Ed- mund Spencer's “Colin Clout,” in this form, “Though last, not least.” We find also two famous uses of the phrase in Shakespeare, the vehicle, probably, on which it rode to popu- larity in modern speech. In act 3, scene I, of “Julius Cae- sar,” when, after the murder of Cae- sar, Antony decides to shake hands with the conspirators, he calls each one by name, and as he comes to Tre- bonius, the last, he says, as he shakes his hand: “Though last, not least in vours, good Trebonius.” King Lear,” at the very begin- ning of the play, when the King rsks his daughters in turn, according to their age, to tell how much they love him, so that he may accordingly di- vide his territory among them, he says as he speaks last to the youngest daughter, Cordelia, “Now, our joy, a! though the last, not least.” And “last, but mot I vived to popular usage in today. i s sur- our sveech “balanced” ration after night's fast FEATURES Making the Most of Your Looks BY DOROTHY STOTE.
