in hairdressing. The hair will

drunk on.
The hair is dressed nowadays to be
very glossy and smooth—nothing Jusey or
frizzed is allowed. The band that twines
the head back of the soft front locks is
of the hair itself, in a flat, smooth, glossy
strap. This is more becoming to every
woman than the ribbon bands that have
been used of late.
Shaking hands is a relic of barbarism,
anyhow. It became the custom in the
days when everyone carried a in
his belt and when one friend ng an-
other thought it necessary to attest the
fulness of his intentions by extend-
ng an open palm. Then the other man
could do no less than make a similarly
reassuring demonstration, and the grasp
of these two extended hands naturally
followed. Subsequently, by a logical pro-
cess of evolution, the han ke to

the refusal of a proffered hand was re-
garded as one of those insults whose dis-

Now the custom is too firmly and widely
established for its abandonment to be
conceivable, and yet there are various
things about it which render it unsatis-

energy for the waking hours. Whenever
the nervous system has been subjected
to a great strain, as in times of special
anxiety, prising from such causes as sick-
ness or death in the family, it is impera-
tive that the nervous system should be
allowed to make up for its exhaustion by
long subsequent sleep.—Dr. S.S. Mec-

The Reason His Wife Gave For Dis-
liking Postponements.
Just when Mrs. Ackroyd had finished
packing her trunks and after William
Ackroyd had bought rallway tickets
for her and their two daughters little
Bessie came down with a severe case
of whooping cough. The doctor posi-
tively refused to let the child start on
a long journey, and even if he bad
thought it safe for the little one to
leave home he assured Mrs. Ackroyd
that she would not be permitted to
take the patient into a hotel anywhere.
“Isn't it a shame?’ the distressed
lady walled. “Here we are with every-
thing in our trunks, and my husband
has even bought our berths in the
“It is unfortunate, but I don't know
what you can do except sit down and
wait four or five days. It may be safe
then for you to start away.”
When her husband got home that
evening Mrs. Ackroyd was weeping.
“Don’t take it so hard, dear,” he said.
“It might be a good deal worse. Our
little one is likely to get along all
right. The doctor says the case isn't
an unusually severe one, and when I
telephoned him this afternoon he said
he thought it might be safe for you to
start away by the end of the week.”
“I know. He told me the same thing.
But I feel that we'll never go. I never
postponed anything yet that didn’t
turn out sadly. I once postponed a
wedding, and the marriage never took
place.”
Half an hour later William Ackroyd
was still sitting in & corner alone
thinking it over.—Chicago Record-Her-
ald.
Carrying a Bundle.
A stylish looking woman who looked
as if she bad rather die than carry a
bundle that wouldn't go into a hand-
bag went into the women's suit depart-
ment of a big store lugging a paste-
board box half as big as herself. Other
customers present wondered at her un-
dignified action, but the saleswoman
did not wonder.
“There 1s one time when the proud-
est woman on earth will carry a bun-
dle,” she said. “That is when some
garment has been sent home finished
off badly and has to be brought back
for alterations. If the customer would
only telephone to the store we would
send for the garment, but that would
take time. She wants it finished with-
out delay, and rather than wait she
brings it down herself."—New York
Sun.
Alaska’s Coast Region.
The coast region,of Alaska das a
mild climate, not colder than the
northern part of Puget sound or of
Scotland. The stand of trees is dense,
averaging for considerable areas 25,000
feet per acre, Sitka spruce forming
about 20 per cent of the stand and
western hemlock about 75 per cent.
Although by far the most abundant
specles, western hemlock does not pro-
duce as large individual trees as the
spruce or western red cedar, the for-
mer occasionally showing a diameter
of six feet with a height of 150 feet
and the cedar diameters of from three
to four feet.

Keeping His Word.
