of Washington's
, Social Set
' ' Bee Bureau, - r
. Washington, Sept 27.
Washington has been rejoicing in
a reaf ecclesiastical atmosphere in
this week's social affairs. The war's
stalwart, spiritual figure, Cardinal
Mercier of Belgium, who did so
much townrds saving what is left to
Belgium arrived here on Tuesday.
He came primarily to assist inthe
dedication of the Sulpician semin
ary of the Catholic university, at
which Cardinal Gibbons officiated.
They were entertained at luncheon
on that day by the president of the
seminary, Dr, Edward R. Dyer, and
at dinner by the Catholic university
dignitaries..
In between the two entertain
ments the greatest social function
since the departure of President and
Mrs. Wilson on their swing around
the circle, was given.-
lt was a great reception to the
cardinr.I, with the Belgian minister
lo be ambassador as soon as the
president returns,- and Baroness de
Cartier a bride of little more than
two months, as hosts. The minister
iias leased' temporarily the home of
Mrs. W. J. Boardman and Miss
Mabel Boardman where they will
remain until after the visit of. King
Albert and Queen Elizabeth of Bel
gium. Some members of their suite will
be guests there. The reception
served to introduce to diplomatic, of
ficial and smart social circles not
only the distinguished prelate, but
the bride of the minister who ' had
returned to Washington but a week
befor:.
Six hundred invitations were is
sued, to the vice president and Mrs.
Marshall, the members of the cab
inet, the diplomatic corps, scores of
.senators and representatives, and
their- wives, and the . prominent
members of Washington's smart res
ident circles. Of course, many peo
ple of the 600 were absent from the
city. The vice president add Mrs.
Marshall were not present. They
had but just returned from their
disappointing trip, of not getting
where they had planned to go, their
home in Indianapolis.
Receiving Line. 1
The French ambassador and
Mme. Jusserand stood in the re
ceiving line with the Belgian min
ister, the baroness and the cardinal,
the last . named standing between
the hosts. The baroness was very
lovely in a gown of dark chiffon and
charmeuse, made an rather Oriental
lines, with dull gold embroidery,
ohe had on her famous string of
pearls, perfectly matched gems
wound about her throat several
times. The dark, rich tint of her
Ldraped and graceful gown formed a
contrast and a charming set
ting for-.the bright scarlet of the
cardinal s Vob.e and cap. They
were of the brightest srarlnt -iv,A
thin, towering figure was
lis tall,
most striking. More ' so, even, is
his read and face.
It is one of those wonderful faces,
impossible to properly describe, but
from which emanates a great light
and magnetism. '
He met on this occasion many
whom he had known in Belgium
before the awful calamity of 1914.
It was a very happy occasion. Car
dinal Gibbons was the guest of
honor next to Cardinal Mercier, and
Cardinal Gibbons has a wide circle
of real friends in Washington,
where he is entertained at dinners
and other functions every season by
a few of the elect, except war sea
sons. He Jield a little levee oi his
very own in the drawing room and
was a stately figure in' his superb
flowing circular, or cassock, of the
richest red moire silk, the kind
which stands alone, worn over a
robe, and a short jacket of the most
exquisite rare old point lace, 'almost
priceless in value. His cap is' of a
richer and darker red than Cardinal
Mercier's, but those red touches
were lovely bits of color in Mrs.
Boardman's lovely home which has
been the scene of so many official
parties with the most distinguished
guests possible. Miss Boardman
was a guest on this occasion and
enjoyed the rather novel situation
of being welcomed in her own
home.

Mrs. Hitchcock and Miss Ruth
Hitchcock have returned to their
Washington home and joined the
senator after nearly four months'
absence.
Representative and Mrs. M. O.
McLaughlin of York, Neb., who
have been nursing a very sick
daughter for a couple of weeks, are
much encouraged now that she will
soon be out again. They have given
up all their time to the care of her
lately.
. The Ak-Sar-Ben club held its first
meeting since last spring on Thurs
day evening in the Wilson Normal
school, Miss Viola Wetherill, prqpi
dent, presiding. , They made their
plans for the forthcoming season. It
is quite wonderful that the club has
grown so successfully from the lit
tle circle of knitters, of war working
girls from Nebraska, who met every
week with Mrs. Norris, wife of the
senator from Nebraska, and with
Mrs. Reavis, wife of the representa
tive from Falls City," alternately, to
the big club which - has to seek a
large and roomy meeting place. Of
cpurse the girls are not knitting any
more,, they are doing any war relief
work which may be called for and
they do much in a social way to re
lieve the home-sickness of fellowi
war workprs and soldiers from ther
state. Tneir dances are given at
least once each month. Mrs. Norris
and Mrs. Reavis are chaperons.

Fall Fashions
By GERTRUDE BERESFORD.
Paris, Sept. 27. Criticism of the
extreme modes as worn at French
watering places are heard on all
sides, and while there seems to be
small likelihood of the masses aping
the ultra modes, the influence of
such a coterie of smart women is
bound to be felt. A continuance of
the richness and luxury of materials
and jewels is expected, but after the
effect of the first flush of exhilara
tion over victory has subsided the
French coutouriers themselves look
for a modification of the present
mode. The Byzantine and Oriental
influences generally are very strong
and show no decrease in favors.
To clean a plaster cast rub it all
over with a mixture of turpentine,
ammonia and beeswax in equal pro
portions. Remove this with a brush
and wipe with a soft cloth and the
cast will be thoroughly cleansed.
Put a small bag of unslackened
lime inside the piano just underneath
the cover and the wires will never
rust. The lime will absorb all mois
ture and prevent dampness.

i
Everybody know that a woman'i
crowning glory is her hair, but there
are not many people who realize
that a woman's character can be
told by her hair as well as by her.
face and hands.
Coarse, straight hair shows even
ness of character, and when light or
dark denotes physical strength.
When the hair is dark and straight
its owner has, in addition to phys
ical strength, an intense and pas
sionate disposition. When coarse,
dark hair accompanies development
of jaw and fujl-iips it indicates sen
suality and a lack of fine feeling.
A woman with fine, straight hair,'
especially if it is dark in color, is
usually of a firm and high-spirited
nature, rather inclined toward ob
stinacy, but loyal and dependable.
She makes an excellent wife.
Very sensitive people have very
fine hair, fine eyebrows and, lashes.
Fine hair also denotes love of re
finement, great love of beauty and
interest in art.
Golden hair, varying in tint,
shows its possessor to be capricious
in affections, nervous, sensitive and
rather inclined to be touchy in re
gard to matters of a trivial nature,

wishes are opposed, and sometimes
makes herself extremely miserable
without any real cause.
Pale hair and that shade usually
called mouse color are signs of col
orless natures. A pale-tressed wom
an's temperament does not show
variation; she will act in a certain
way under given conditions and
there is no uncertainty as to her
behavior. ,
The most common color of hair
in England and America is mid
brown. It shows a happy blending
of traits, with a predominance of in
tellect over heart.
Red-haired people are generally
supposed to be hot tempered. They
are inclined to be hasty, but are
never vindictive. This quickness of
temper is due to impulsiveness and
a love of speiking out what they
have in mind. They are usually of
a sunny disposition and are honest
and truthful, but rather vain and
eager for admiration.

Now Big Car Owners
In It They Find Wanted Large Car Qualities,
With Advantages Exclusive to Small Cars
Turn to Essex
Consider how many, who formerly bought
only large, high-priced cars, now own an Essex.
It proves that size was not what they sought.
They paid big premiums for qualities that small
cars did not offer.
, These are people with wide motor experi-'
ence. They prize such light car advantages as
economy and nimbleness.
But heretofore, only large, costly cars met
their other requirements of performance, riding .
ease and appearance.
Such Is the Car
You Want
And they are chief among Essex enthusiasts.
It meets their demands for a complete car.
Accustomed to fine car qualities, they appre
ciate the way in which Essex matches the best
standards of cars in higher price range.
The Essex . was designed to embody the
. wanted qualities of the finest cars, in a size it
would be possible to build at a moderate price.
Examine the Essex
Rid in It ,
Everywhere you hear how Essex meets
those exactions. Consider just what all this
comment and praise of Essex means. Surely
no other car ever excited such unrestrained
enthusiasm.
And note this fact. Except in size and
economy you have probably never heard the
Essex compared to another small car. Men
inevitably seek comparison for Essex qualities
among high-priced cars. There only, do they
find parallels by which to describe it.
They match its acceleration against certain
makes noted for that quality. Its speed they
compare to the swiftest. Every community has
its story of how the Essex, "in high," tops some
local "bogey" hill.
And now that it has become so well known,
men are making it the performance standard.
1 it is not unusual to hear some say of a high
priced car they admire: "Why it climbs like
an Essex," or "It gets away at crossings with
the Essex cars."
Now They Buy
the Essex
Your first glance will note the distinctive
finish, the materials and workmanship. See the
care even in the smallest details.
Its solid, compact assembly, that has been
proved in every trying test, will satisfy you of
endurance powers.
Then take a ride in the Essex. It will re
veal qualities that charm you as they have
nearly a million others.
You will agree that only big production,
t permits the sale of such a car at the Essex price.
' Though they are being built at the rate of 20,000
a year, the demand exceeds supply.
You can be sure of an Essex when you want
it only by placing your order now.
