How much extra freshness can be
given to the home in summer by the
addition of a few colorful prints,
choserj with special care to have them
suggest all that is cool and delightful.

when designed in the manner of this

When the tweed ensemble is a three-

Plainer Bags Prevail.
An outstanding feature of the new

contrasted with the patchwork effects
shbwn earlier in the season. Soft,
plain-colored suede or antelope skin
with mountings of tortise shell seems
as the case may be. The shell mount

ball fasteners or clasps whose crved

About your
HeaLth
Things You Should Know
by John Joseph Gaines, M. D
The suffering man or woman is gen
erally wiling to grasp at the straw
which promises even slight allevia
tion. It may be an inflamed and swol-
en joint, a throbbing agonizing, in
flamed nerve, a passing calulus, or
-— >
the plain or peptic ulcer. Local appli
cations afford a measure of relief
worth going after, besides keeping the
mind occupied so far as possible, on
the work in hand, and away from the
suffering.
There are mgjiy forms of local
ntedicationi, but there are only a few
drugs that penetrate the skin and
reach the affected part. One had
better leave the local use of poisons
New York.—“X>, Harold, your beauti
ful, wavy hair thrills me to death. I
mean it really does. Was it always
that way?” | T - ,\
“Why,, no.” replies the young man
modestly. “I Just dropped into the
Beauty Shoppe this morning for my
weekly hiarcelle.” i. .
This might well he typical conver
sation nowadays between the flapper
and hef well-groomed, wavy-haired
sheik, for an ever Increasing number
of men are patronizing women’s beauty
parlors in order to enhance their mas
culine “appeal.” x
Many he-men will roar at this state
ment, hut it is inside dope, straight
from the proprietor of a beauty shop,
who says that the beauty parlors, ouee
devoted entirely to the ladies, are now
no more sacred to the fair ones than
the barber shops reserved’ for men.
“The men are now beginning to real
ize,” she explained, “that they must
take advantage of art in order to make
the best of their personal appearance
for business and social success. The
girls found that out ages ago.”
Within the past two years, espe-
cfn-Hy; imre-Mm -boys-been invading
the beauty rtiop, * not* oifiy for mar
celles, but for facial treatments, hair
dying and even for permanent waves.
Some of the customers are irregular,
but many of the establishments have
their weekly male patrons. The wom
en often reswt the intrusion, she said,
so her own shop doesn’t' encourage
this trade.
Most of the boys are very awkward
about coming iu, site related. Either
they flush and drop their hat or are
too nonchalant to be convinotTTgT They
are quite docile under treatment, as/lftieir special uses,
a rule, hut are apt to be afraid of the 1
formidable looking permanent wave
machine. When a man is put in u
choir fife big contraption fastened n
to his hair in about twenty places and
the current turned on. he usually moans
and asks the operator to hold his
hand.
Middle aged business men-^rrd pre^
maturely gray young ones $>me
regularly to have their hair dyed. In
theiy cose personal vanity plays n4
part. There is a strong prejudice
against gray hair. So they disguise it
under the more youthful shade of dark
brown. \
Keep a Garden Note Book.
Hi
By all means have 'a garden note
book to keep a recor<| of^all the!
things you want to remember in con-1
neetion with your garden. You may
tl ink at first thought that you don’t
need it, but you will refer to it many
times as the seasons roll by. . Youj
will find n book about seven and one-^
half by nine and one-half inches with
stiff covers the most piactical.
In this book m&ke note of the things
you want to do in your garden, the
plants you want to add here and there.
When you visit a friend’s garden or a
nursery, take it along with you and
jot (down the things that interest you.
There is always some new plant being
brought to your attention, and if you
don’t mark it down you will not re
member it. and then when you wish to
order it .for your garden you cannot
do it.
In your garden note book make
note of the pleasing color combinations
you see in the gardens of others. Good
combinations of plant material are
always worth study, and it is by study
that you will improve -your gardem
When you visit the flower shows take
your note book with you and note the
-new things you see and wish to add
to your planting. If you wish to keep
your garden up to date, you must be
on the lookout for the new T est things.
The space and time that we have to
devote to o*ur gardens is limited w r ith
the md^t of us, and only the better
things afie worthy of a place in our
gardens. Your garden should be a
selection of the most desirable things
you can grow; not a collection of any
and everything.
In your rote book you should keep
such things as recipes for spray solu
tions, notes -upon liquid manures and
similar things. YW will finjd that
you will refer to them many times.
A garden note book becomes a regular
mine of information, and you will not
realize its value till you have one. My
own rote book has grown until today
it has almost become a scrap book;
in fact, in addition to my note book,
I keep a veay large scrap book of
garden material, and am alw’ays add-
ing to it. N One never learns too much
about gardens, and you must always
be on the lookout fo** gardening infor-
I ination. Jot it down and you w’ill
have it when you want it.

Elevators to Enable
Men to Inspect Stacks
New York.—Man-carrying elevators
Inside 22."Toot smokestacks are fea
tures of the new piillion-kilowatt ca
pacity East river generating station
being created from the existing plant.
Seven smokestacks will tower above
the roof ot the power house. They
will each he 22 feet in diameter, con
structed entirely of steel plates rivet
ed together..
Heretofore the inside of steel
smokestacks has l>een lined with
brick, because moisture, gathering
where the plates are riveted together,
causes corrosion and destroys them.
But the designers of the East river
station decided that a brick lining was
not necessary. Instead, they had the
inside of every seam In each stack
welded smooth, to allow no place for
moisture to gafiher. Thousands of
linear feet of welding protect the
vulnerable places where plates are
joined together. ” '
The elevators permit thorough and
safe inspection of the insides of the
stacks. Each elevator consists of a
steel platform running along guides
and suspended from a cable over a
sheaf at the top of the stack. When
not in use the elevators rest at the
bottom of the stacks below the open
ings in the sides where the smoke
enters from the boilers.
Steel ladders are built outside the
stacks to provide another means of
ascent The workmen climb between
ladder and stack, rather than out
side, since this gives- them a feeling
of security.
