Coiffures for the Small Turbans
Just how the modish girl manages
to achieve certain things is the ques
tion that engages the attention of
other girls and Inspires the wonder
ment and awe of the sterner sex. How
does she get on a tiny turhan over the
mass of fluffy hair which crowned her
head aforetime? Where has said hair
disappeared? How does she take on,
with tho foolish little turban, a "no
body homo" expression that suits it
exactly but makes one look twice to
be suro of her identity? Some of these
questions can bo answered and somo
cannot, because the maid herself hard
ly knows how she manages.
Just now some of tho new hair
dressing styles demand that the fore
head shall be uncovered and that sim
plicity in the coiffure be made a
feature of its attraction. Somo daring
souls have oven gone to the extreme
at combing tho hair straight back
from the forehead and twisting the
ends into a plain, high coll at the top
Df the head. A round, young face with
an abundance of hair to, frame it may
manago a colffuro of distinction by
such simple means, but nearly all
people need soft, curving lines about
the forehead.
A clever coiffure is shown In the
picture, in which the hair is not
waved but laid In pretty curves about
the face by pinning locks of It at each
side to form what are called "water
waves." One way of doing this Is to
dampen tho hair and comb It back. A
band is then bound tightly about the
head and the hair pulled forward In
curves by means of the toilet comb.
Tho waves nro then pinned with small
wire pins In the position left by the
comb.
Tho back hnlr may be arranged in a
psycho knot, as shown In the picture,
or In three flat coils across the back
of the head. Or It may be worn In a
high coil at the top of the head. In
any case the band is not taken ofl
until the hairdress is finished.
Narrow velvet bands about the hair
are very fashionable, and they are
also very useful in holding tho hair In
place.
Stripes Popular.
A season of stripes everything;
gowns, hats, sunshados. furniture!
'Twould bo easier to delineate what It
not striped than what is. The modish
stripe of black and white, red and
white and white with green, has found
its way to square-shaped candles, too
Twenty cents each are these, and jusl
tho thing for somo room possibl;
yours.

No ono fails to appreciate the charm
at tho lace-trimmed and fluffy night
dresses that make up the mass of
theso garments. Always their pro
ducers are presenting new designs
that captivate tho oyo with tho dainty
combination of ribbons nnd laces.
Ilut there is another charm which be
longs to tho hand-embroidered gown
It is the charm of clcganco as well as
beauty. There is nothing qulto equal
to find hand ombroldery in expressing
a refinement of tasto, In undergar
ments and other lingerie
Tho needlowomnn who can do flno
work can provide horsolf with llngerlo
fit for a queen by virtuo of her needle
craft. Or if she wishes to turn her
accomplishment to profit she may bo
euro that an appreciative world Is
ready to admire and pay for export
needlework. No ono should put a low
price on first-class hand embroidery
not tlmo nlono, but ability to do and
quality of workmanship aro to bo con
sidered In nxing Its prlco.

Bhown in tho picture. All edges aro
scalloped and finished with oven but
tonholo stitching. A floral spray and
butterflies aro portrayed on tho sheer
batiste surfaco by moans of tho noodle.
A gracoful rrttern, small flowers and
butterflies a. tho uso of appropriate
stitches combine to wake the success
of the design.
Gowns of this kind aro prettiest
When cut by the simplest patterns. In
tho example shown hero tho sleoves
and body are in one; tho shapo of a
flaring slecvo Is outlined by scallops
embroidered In linos on the body.
They merely add graceful linos and
pleaaiug workmanship, that la, they
aro a part of tho "finish" which mnkea
tho hand-onibroldcred garment elegant
abovo others.
Lightweight, smoothly woven linen
or tho best of fine cotton fabrics aro
tho materials which It Is worth while
to chooso when handwork is to bo
used in decorating llngerlo.

Gold Fringe Trimming.

Tho frlngo Is used around tho bottom

tho front of tho bodice and along th

CULTIVATION IN AN ORCHARD
Ground Should Be Gone Over Every
Week or Ten Days to Liberate
Plant Food and Save Moisture.
As tho principal objects of summer
cultivation are to liberate plant food
and conserve soli moisture, tho
ground should bo gone over once every
week or ten days according to tho
frequency of rains. The cultivation
should bo discontinued nbout the mid
dle of July as tho trees are no long
er In n state of vigorous growth. Tho
fruit buds for tho next year aro at
this tlmo fully matured and the caro
of tho trees can now be ended by tho
sowing of n cover crop of some kind.
When plowed under tho next spring
this crop supplies the necessary
amount of humus, stores up nitrogen
and prevents tho soil from being
washed by heavy rains.
There Is a wide variety of sultablo
cover crops, but legumes nro tho most
suitable. Duckwhcat is ono of tho
best non-nitrogen gathering crops and
may be sown late in the summer.
Vetches nro very good cover crops.
Winter rye Is less sultablo but may
be used when the earlier sown crops
fail.
As soil protection and promotlan of
fertility are the objects In view, these
crops should bo sown thick enough to
closely cover the ground. These crops
supply tho required amount of nitro
gen In most cases, if not, the trees
will show It by light colored, un
healthy looking foliage and stunted
growths. Nitrate of Boda, in quanti
ties of from 50 to 100 pounds per aero,
sown early In tho spring is tho best
method of supplying nitrogen when it
is needed
Many growers contend that lato
cultivation and fertilization promotes
a strong growth of now wood, which
by being frozen in tho winter will In
jure the trees, while others claim the
contrary, and mention tho results of
experiments to prove their argument.

If largo branches ;ro affected that

which will kill any lurking germs and
preserve tho wood from decay.
Protecting Cherries.
Two methods of keeping birds away
from berries and cherries: 1. Get
somo nieces of bright tin and bo hang
them that they'll flap in the wind
against a pole; 10 by 12 Inches is a
good bIzo; punch a hole near the edge
for the string. 2. Tie a cord to a po
tato, stick it full of largo feathers, and
hang it where It will sway in the wind

Ono hundred and forty different va
