BOTH CHILDREN CURED BY FAMOUS REMEDIES 'Tor several years mv husband was missionary in the Southwest, and ws were living on the edge of the desert at an elevation of nearly Ave thousand feet. Every one in that high and dry atmosphere has more or lees trouble with dandruff and my daughter's scalp became so encrusted with it that I was alarmed for fear she would lose all her hair, which was very heavy. After spending between five and six dollars for various remedies, in desperation I bought a cake of Cuticura ciosp and A box of Cuticura Ointment. After rub bing the Cuticura Ointment thoroughly into the roots of the hair. I gently combed the crust of dandruff free from the scalp, and then gsvs her head a thorough shampoo with the Cuticura ftoap. This left the scalp beautifully clean and free from dandruff, and after the hair was dry, I sgain rubbed the Cuticura Ointment, this time sparingly, Into the roots, and I id happy to say that the Cuticura Remedies were a complete success. My troubles with dandruff were over, although for a long time afterward I used the Cuticura Ointment as at first, after shampooing, which kept the scalp and routs of the hair moist. I have used successfully the Cuticura Remedies for so-called 'milk-crust,' on baby's head, and have never found anything to equal them.

In selecting tsbls cloths, It is more sat isfactory to get ths seventy-two-inch wldih. which gives s generous fall of sixteen Inches or so st ths sides; which dresses a labia better than ths narrower widths.

Do not starch; stretch evenly and hang straigni on iiij line to dry. In Ironing, the linen must be evenly n,i vrv well dampened.

Ths year IX waa a trying one for the deslgnera and makers of fine underwear. The Dlrectolre gown worked havoc with underwear traditions, and neither tne women nor the manufacturer have fully faced ths new problems sftd mastered them. Now ths combination Idea has been de veloped until popularised, but doubtless no sooner shall we hsve resigned ourselves to ths eliminstlon of underwear folds and wrinkles snd plaits thsn the Dlrectoire modes, which brought sbout the revolution, will vanish, and what will, fair woman do then? Possibly when ths radical Innovations shall have paased it will be found that there haa been s distinct gain In tha under standing of underwear possibilities. Ths deslraMe may stay with us. though the freakish will not; snd it Is to be hoped that many a woman hitherto content to buy petticoats, drawers, corset covers, etc., that did not fit her and drag them Into unshapely bunchlness by the use of ths shir atrings, which are the manufacturer concession to ths vsriations of the feminine figure, will hava received enough enlight enment during a brief Dlrectolre education to sppreclste the beauty an! desirability of well-fued undrwear. There are Innumerable expressions of the eorablnstlon Ides. The most extreme com bine a smooth-fitting corset cover with knickerbockers carefully fitted and without sny unnecessary fuUficss. Thess ss s rule are In soft satin. Or, perhaps, it would be more accurate to say that they were chiefly in satin, for they have been copied In lin gerie stuffs, and while these materials will not mould themselves to the form ss will satin, they turVe a great advantage from ths viewpoint of cleanliness One of the radical models of this typs appears In the sketches and. as will be seen. Is mors notable for smooth-fitting lines than for beauty. The corset cover Is fitted closely down to the lower Una of a long corset and the knickers are attached smoothly st that line without s gather save just in ths back. BLEACHED FLOUR IS ILLEGAL Decision Signed by Secretary of Agrl- caltnre Will Prohibit Back AslalteratlOB. Bleached flour, which haa been ths sub ject of ao much controversy and condem nation during ths last two years, has re ceived a knock-out blow In a decialon which has Just been rendered by Jsmes Wilson of ths United Ststcs Department of Agri culture, on ths recommendation of ths Board of Food and Drug Inspeotlon, says What to Eat. Ths decialon, aigned by Sec retary Wilson himself, states: Flour bleached1 , with nitrogen psroxid, as affected by tha food snd drug set of June 80, 1904, has been made the subject of a careful Investigation extending over sev eral months. A public hearing on thla subject was held by ths secretary of agriculture snd ths Board of Food snd Drug Inspection, begin ning November It. 1M, and continuing five dsys. At this bearing those who fsvored ths bleaching process and tboss who op posed It were given squsl opportunities to be beard. It is my opinion, based upoa sll ths tes timony given at ths hearing, upon ths f- I ports of those whs hava Investigated the subject, upoa ths litsrsturs sad upon ths unsnlmous opinion of the Board of Foa: snd Drug Inspection, that flour bleached by nitrogen peroxld is an adulterated product under the food snd drugs act of Juns 30, 1906; thst ths character of ths adulteration Is such that no statement upon the label will bring bleached flour within the law, and that such flour cannot legally be made or sold In ths District of Columbia or In ths territories, or be transported or aold In tha Interstate commerce, or b trans ported or sold In foreign commerce except under that portion of section S of the law, which reads: Provided. That no article shall be deemed mlsbrauded or adulterated within ths provlalona of this act when InteiiiHd for export to any foreign country and pre pared or packed according to the apecifl catlona or directions of the foreign pur chaser, when no substance Is used In the preparstlon or packing thereof in conflict with the laws of ths foreign country to which said article .la Intended to be shipped. In view of tha extent of the bleaching proceaa and of ths Immense quantity of bleached flour now on hand or In process of manufacture, no prosecutions will be recommended by this department for man ufacture and sale thereof In ths District of Columbia or ths territories or for trans portation or sals in Interstate or foreign commerce' for a period of six months from ths date hereof habits snd conditions which tend to causa nervous excitement.
