types extant now. living in remote vil
lages. There is none in the cities. In
a little while they will have all van
ished and nothing remain of them but
a tradition.
Take the old maid. There really used
to be such a person—a thinchested, an
aemic female, with a sharp nose and a
razor-edged tongue. Disappointment at
not catching a husband had turned the
blood in her veins to vinegar. Dissat

She was a mischief maker, a scandal

• Cutting Down the Heating Cost
This weather requires fuel that contains the maximum In heat
value. Fuel that possesses the most heat units will give the desired re
sult with the least possible consumption. You can't cut your coal bill
by cheaper prices—they are uniform, but you can reduce your heating
expense by using less coal. Our coal is the cheapest because It goes the
farthest.

things she did not have. She was
venomously jealous of every young girl
whose youth and beauty reminded her
of her own lost charms, and she took a
bitter revenge on the world in tale
bearing and gossip that wrecked homes
and blackened the names of Innocent
maidens. Everybody hated her, dread
ed her, feared her. She was one of the
pests of society.
Where is the old maid now? Ex
tinct. Extinct as the Dodo. Plenty of
unmarried women there are—more, per
i haps, than ever before in the history
of the world, but they are no more
like the old maids of the past than
a glass of generous'wine is like a
drop of vitriol.
I nmarrlrd Woman Now Only Haa Time
For llnvlnean
Business killed the old maid. The
unmarried woman of to-day has her
business or profession or her Indepen
dent income, she has her own home,
her myriads of interests, her friends,
her amusements, and «he is the jolliest,
most whole-souled and liberal-minded
person you can meet in a day's journey,
bhe's too busy with her own affairs to
nose into other people's, and she is so
happy In her free and independent
life lhat she simply sloshes over with
the milk of human kldness. She's so
little like the old maid of the past that
people don't even call her an old
ma'd. The world is no monnicker for
her.
Then there's the Lachrymose Lady.
Don't you remember when you were a
child some woman who, always dressed
in black, with a long, sweeping crepe
veil hanging down her back, and
slimpsy black skirts trailing around
her. and black gloves on her hands
funeral gloves—who used to come to
see your mother and spend a whole
long happy day telling her troubles
and weeping of'them?
Where In the l.ndy of the Funeral
Veil f
No such woman comes to see you.
There's just as much trouble in* the
world now as there ever was, God help
us. Husbands are unfaithful, children
are wayward, fortune get lost, but
when these misfortunes befall us we
no longer asrend to the wailing place
and call on the public to see us weep.
J,« don't parade our griefs in public.
>\p hide them and put up a bluff at
things being well with us whether they
are or not.
Where are these lachrymose ladies
now? Gone. The perpetual mourner
has vanished. Melancholy is no longer
a cult. There is too much sunshine in
the world for us to have any patience
with the morbidness that carefully cul
tivated melancholy instead of phil
osophy. and we should regard a woman
who let a single unfortunte love epi
sode blight her life as a subject for the
home for the feeble-minded Instead of
an object to cherish. Hence the lach
rymose lady nas wrapped her three
yard-long crepe veil around her and
stole away into the land of used-to-be.
And the dear old grandmother, the
grandmother who at 40 or 45 years of
age was done with the world and reads*
for the chimney corner and caps, and
who asked nothing- else of life but the
pleasure of taking care of her children's
children and tucking them into their
little beds and telling them Bible
stories. Grandma just had one best
dress, a good black silk, because she
was too old for the frivolty of clothes,
and the said black silk had a cavern
ous pocket, in which she carried a rat
to cut ,ts teeth on and
a little dolly for Sally, and a ball or

A Hint for
Coming Maternity
In a little book designed for expectant
mothers more complete instruction Is
given in the use of "Mother's Friend."
This is an external embrocation applied
to the abdominal muscles for the purpose
of reducing the strain on ligaments, cords
and tendons.
In thus bringing relief and avoiding
pain great good is accomplished. It
serves to ease the mind, indirectly has a
most beneficial effect upon the nervous j
system and thousands of women have
delightedly told how they were free of j
nausea, had no morning sickness and
went through the ordeal with most re
markable success. "Mother's Friend" has
been growing In popular favor for more
than forty years. In almost every com
munity are grandmothers who used it
themselves, their daughters have used it
and they certainly must know what a
blessing it is when they recommend it
so warmlv. Strictly an external application
it has no other effect than to ease the
muscles, cords, tendons and ligaments
Involved hence Is perfectly safe to use by
all women. It Is used very successfully
to prevent caking of breasts.
"Mother's Friend" is prepared in the
laboratory of Bradfleld Regulator Co.,

Dandruffy Heads
Become Hairless
i
Scalp Dries—Chokes out the Hair
And Prevents Its Growth
If you want plenty of thick, beauti
ful, glossy, silky hair, do by all means
get rid of dandruff, for It will starve
your hair and ruin it if you 4on't.
It doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out. The only sure j
way to get rid of dandruff is to dis
solve it, then you destroy it entirely i
To do this, get about four ounces of
ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night
when retiring; use enough to moisten
the scalp an rub it in gently with
the finger tips.
By norning, most if nc ail, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will completely
dissolve and entirely destroy, every
single sign and trace of it.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop,
and your hair will be silky, fluffy, lus
trous, soft and look and feel a hun
dred times belter. You can get liquid
arvon at any drug store. It-is inex
pensive and four ounces is all you
will need, no matter how much dan
druff you have. This simple remedy
never fails.—Advertisement.

The collar that stands out away frorr

fashionable fancies. Here is a dress thr.t
can be finished m that way or with a little
frill at the neck edge. It is exceptionally
smart whichever is chosen. In th- pic
ture, it is made of taffeta, antaffeta
not alone is in the height of style but also
is one of the best materials for frills and
ruffles; but, nevertheless, the frock \n
be made from almost any ."ashionable ma
terial and treated in two or three such
different ways as to give distinctly dif
ferent results. In one view, lacc flounci.ig
and lace all-over are used withoui the
frills and it requires some consideration
to realize that fundamentally the dress u
the same as the one shown on the figure.
Ifthe frills were made of double net over
a foundation of messaline or cr?pe de
chine and, in place of the girdle, a sash
of the net were used, a still different re
sult -would be obtained and, if the entire
gown were made of white net over a
of color, it would be of little relation to the
taffeta design, although cut after the same
model.
For the 16 year size, the dress will re

HAIR PROBLEMS OF MIDDLE AGI
—PART 111.
The explanation of the hair structure
grtven In a previous lesson shows the de
pendence of the hair on the nourishment
provided by the blood. Any condition of
111 health that Interrupts or depletes this
supply means thinning, falling or break
ing hair. As a rule good health means
rood, normal hair and 111 health the re
verse.
There are exceptions to this rule for
there are local and peculiar conditions
that sometimes govern the growth of th.
hair. The oil supplied by the sebaceous
glands Is a strong factor In hair health;
If this supply Is Interrupted, the hair be
comes harsh, dull and Inclined to break;
If It Is over-abundant,' the scalp be
comes oily, the pores close and dandruff
of a peculiarly unpleasant form Is apt to
result.
Why Men Are Bald.
A thin, tight scalp means thlh, tmpover- !
Ished hair. Luxuriant, glossy hair
grows from a fat, loose scalp for the rea
son that this cushion of flesh provides
room for a plentiful amount of blood
vessels and oil glands. A tight scalp,
that Is one that adheres to the skull, is
sn abnormal condition that should b.
remedied by massage and friction as soon
as it Is perceived, for It Is a symptom of
approaching baldness.
You will note this condition on most
baldheaded men. When the scalp Is very
tight and shiny it is generally an indica
tion that the hair follicles are complete
ly atrophied and that there Is little chanc*
that hair will ever again grow from
them.
