One or the ether

The A. E. Little shoe has been
enthusiastically endorsed by the
highest medical authorities nnd
approved by the strictest conneis-
reura of Fashion.
Tired, nchinjr. feet will find instant comfort. Patented
methods insure this, and expert designers have in
sured their smart appearance.
Out of Season
Knew you that even as nature shows
her signs of approaching winter, se
ders human nature.
Hen arc the signs:
When n woman starts putting en
tilnlw nml baby blues.
When a man takes te wearing red.
neckties.
When a woman tries te scamper
about like n rwe lamb.
When a man gees out en the sly and
Ukes dancing lessens.
When cither sex turns its vamping
npen the youthfully green having
failed te land anything properly sea
soned. When n woman refuses te lengthen
tier skirts in accordance with prevailing
style. ,
wnen a man dujh iwcpu unicucr unicucr

When a woman's sensitiveness tempts

Then the frost is en the pumpkin nnd
the bloom is off the rose.

TIMFLY BEAUTY HINTS
Society women wnsh their own
hair, net because it is a fad, but
because they wish te obtain the
greatest possible hair beauty nnd
be sure they are nor using anything
harmful. They have found that in
washing the Jinlr it Is never wise
te use a makeshift, but is alwnya
advisable te use n preparation
made for Minmpoelng only. Many
of our friends say they get the best
results from n simple home-made
canthrex mixturp. Yeu can use
this at a cost of about 3 cents a
shampoo by geting some canthrex
from your druggist nnd dissolving
a tenspoenful in a cup of het
wnter. This makes enough ..
poe liquid te apply te all the hair
instead of just the top of the head
as with most preparations. Dand
ruff, excess oil and dirt nre (Ms
solved nnd entirely disappear In the
rinsing water. Your hnir will be
se fluffy that It will leek much
heavier than it is. Its luster and
seftnesa will also delight you.
