C, DIAMOND CLIPS WIN LONDON POPULARITY Fashionable Women All Wearing Them on Hats, at Neck and on Handbags. LONDON, (N.A.N.A).— “Hostess wns” in rich materials dyed to match the color of the room are among the latest dress novelties. One shown recently was in dull silver cloth printed with a design of green to harmonize with the green walls of the salon, and there are many other va- rieties which blend attractively with modern schemes of decoration, Though we have not vet decided whether waists are to be high or low or our skirts long or short, one thing is certain among those who are rich enough. They must possess a set of diamond clips. This usually consists of one large one, two smaller and two very small, and are clipped on hats to give the effect of a miniature tiara, or on frocks to outline the curve of a neck- line, where they have the appearance of a long, flexible brooch. Sometimes they are worn separately; the large one on the hat, the two smaller ones at the neck and the two tiny ones as a | DUCHESS OF YORK PICKS COLOR SCHEME FOR HOME LONDON (N.ANA).—The Duke and Duchess of York and their two daughters are still. in Scotland. Dur- ing their absence their home in Picca- dilly has been given over entirely to the workmen. From motives of econ- omy the duchess has decided not to have any inside painting or redecora- tion done this year, but outside the house all the paint’ work, back and front, is being renewed and the stone work washed. ‘The duchess has chosen a shade of plain, deep cream for the outside of her London home, combined with a glossy black for the doors and railings. Additional coats of varnish are being given to the front door at the duchess’ special request, for she knows how quickly London fogs and rain dim the first gloss of new paint. Shiny black railings, strengthened by a new stone curb, have been put around the gar- den where Princess Elizabeth and Princess Margaret spend so much of their time during Spring and Summer. The Duchess of York loves dainty china and, like Queen Mary, takes great pride in stocking and supervising | her china cupboards. The present popularity of delicately tinted china decorated with flower designs largely is due to her influence.

EIGHTY-FIVE per cent of all cases of hair loss result from two causes— (1) lack of nourishment for the growing hair and (2) local scalp disorders. Both of these causes of baldness can be eliminated by Thomas treatment. It stimu- lates the dormant sources of nourishment (increases the blood supply in the scalp) and overcomes abnormal scalp conditions, such as dandruff. If you have any of these aggravating symp- toms of approaching baldness— dry or oily hair, itchy scalp, falling hair, or thin hair— consult a Thomas specislist today. No charge will be made for the consultation or scalp examination. He'll show you how Thomas treatment is ending dandruff, stop- ping hair fall, and growing hairfor thousands of others, and how it can produce the same results for you.
