L. by Inventing tin? barberin. which will rooii he as popular as other establishments whose principal feature Is that the customer waits on himself. The harberla was conceived In the hrafn of an old-time barber who hegan to worry over bis lo.s of trade when the IncreaMiJ prices went into effect. Investigation showed him that his old patrons were shaving themselves, and It struck him that It would be a good idea to establish a shop when these new self-shavers could be supplied with all the paraphernalia necessary to do their own operating. It proved an Instant success, and in two or three months seven other barber shops in the city had been converted Into barberias or barberiae. ToWitch Hazel and Ice CHICAGO. Not without reason is Miss Hazel Gebest tacclalmed the fairest nereid of ;he Fitfy-first street bathing beach. She swims like Aphrodite, smiles like Cleopatra, and has more worshipers than Troy's Helen. Among these are Gratin Brush, eighteen years old, of f734 Maryland avenue; Milford Fingal. eighteen, of rrfElO Drexel boulevard, ami Itaymond Dennis, twenty-two. of S12 East FiftyReventh street. They wore grouped appropriately about her one bright morning when she expressed the wish : "I think I'd like to have a brick of Ice cream." As one the three men leaped up and dashed away. Their's not to reason why. their's not to make reply. The witch Hazel desired a brick of ice cream. The question was who would be first with the brick to win the benMlicthm of her smile? Nip and tmk they ran to the soda water emporium of Harry Shrago at 141 Fast Sixty-third street. They arrived together, to discover two facts. The first was that Mr. Shrago had closed shop for dinner. The second was expressed breathlessly by Mr. Finpal : "Bats. I forgot my pants. My money's in 'em." So had they all. Introducing 1'olicemen Kelley and

and There

day California Is said to have a dozen towns where the self-shaving barberShop Is flourishing, there are several in the middle West, and recently a bnrberia has been established In Now York city. The bnrberia works like this: A man appears at the shop. For five or ten cents (depending upon the scale) he pets a perfectly clean razor a safety or the old-fashioned sort, according to his taste a towel, clean mug, and hot or cold water. He is assigned to a little stand which lias a mirror and chair. If he desires privacy, a different style of stand nu:y be had for a nickel more, where, sur rounded by a curtain, he may shave by J i.i - i m uiiueii. One or several barbers are on hnno to cut hair and to shave any customer who prefers old-fashioned methou. The chiropody girl usually runs the barberia end of the shop. It Is her business to know the wishes of the customers, to know which is their private mug and soap, whether they have a safety or old-fashioned razor in the barberia case, or prefer to use one that the shop koVps on hand and in condition. A thmsand and one little personal preferences are her concern. Besides, she gets many tips where a man wouldn't pet one In a coon's age. Cream And Police CHANGED MY MlflD.

Each clutched an oblong parcel to his breast. "Halt!" yelled Messrs. Kelly and O'Brien. The three rivals Increased their speed. The policemen pursued It was a long chase. The day was warm. The policemen overtook them a few blocks from the beach. "You're pinched, for stealing." -Stealing what?" The evidence had melted away. The policemen accompanied them to where the witch Hazel reclined upon the sands, rapt in thought. "We're sorry," the rivals began, "but the bricks" "Oh," she interrupted, "I'd forgotten. Anyway, I've changed my mind. I want a lemon sundae." deep into the forest seeking orchids, when suddenly Soper gasped that he had been struck by a rattler. The nearest town was 15 miles away. Having had some training as a nurse, the girl knew that only by sucking out the poison could she save his life. She knew, too, that any abrasion in her mouth, any decayed tooth through which the venom might enter her system, meant her own probable death. She applied a tourniquet below the sufferer's knee to prevent the poison from spreading. Then she made a cut across the purple dots which marked the entrance of the reptile's fangs to give a larger bleeding surface. This done she applied her lips to the wound. When no more blood could be drawn the party carried Mr. Soper to their automobiles and drove to Cocoanut Grove. The physician there declared that Miss Ilolsleln's quick action saved the clergyman's life. Although gangreno set in. It rose no higher than the place marked by Miss Ilolstein's tourniquet, and in a month the Reverend Mr. Soper was well. The heroine suffered only a bad headache.

I told a man there that I wanted him to run for a doctor. He said he was n doctor and came In. He said my husband was dead. I was In a daze. I ran out again and went away.

HAD FUN WITH CONDUCTOR

Fat Man Proved to Him That There Were Other With a tteen Ssnse of Humor. On an outbound trip the other afternoon the "whistling raotorraan of the east Washington line had lulled his passengers Into a pleasant semiconsciousness with the drowsy monotony of his Siberian waltz. He trilled a prettj flourish, died gently Into silence and glanced back at hla sour-faced compatriot on the rear platform. "Ornamental ! Ornamental ! sang the conductor. The passengers awoke with n start, craned their necks for bearings ami then giggled In unison as the car stopped at Oriental street to allow a nicely-dressed and Indignant yourig man to alight. Immediately a fluffy young thing rang for a stop at Arsenal avenue. Arsenic! Arsenic!" sang the conductor. And again the passengers tittered. The motorman here cut in with a lively strain from "Lohengrin" that held all engaged until a sweltering fat man In the front of the car called back to the rear: "Say. conductor, will you let me off at Whetstone?" "Whetstone? Whetstone?" was the puzzled response. "There Is no street by that name on this line." "Well, they told me It was near Arsenic," and the fat man rang for a stop. The conductor glanced out of the window and growled: "Keystone avenue! Keystone avenue r And again the passengers tittered as the fat man climbed from the car. Indianapolis News. OLD STORY TO THE INDIAN First to Practice Art of Camouflage In Warfare, Is Contention of Chief Strongheart. Camouflage Is as old as the storm god of Indian folk lore, according to Chief Strongheart, of the Yakima Indian reservation, who says his men are the, real Inventors of it, discovering Its advantages In their earliest conflicts. When a battle was to take place In the forests In the summer months the warriors would paint their bodies green with a dash of other colors or produce the exact blend with surroundings. They even sketched birds and small animals on their bodies to make the effect more realistic. If the battle was to take place when autumn had withered the leaves and touched them into gold, splashes of brown and yellow made the warriors blend with the setting. The trick, when artfully turned, resulted in great victories, and many of the early settlers were taken into captivity by use of camouflage. Running Elk. Strongeart's father, was scout for Gen. 0. 0. Howard In the Nez Perces war, and aid to Colonel Roosevelt in the Spanish-American war. and Strongheart when a baby, was carried about on .the former president's back. His grandfather was Chief Standing Rock, who took part in Cnster's last fight, and who died at the age of 100 years. Swiss Watch Industry. In a survey of the Swiss trade In watches for last year. Trade Commissioner II. Lawrence Graves at Zurich points out that more and more the exports of these articles to the United States are being confined to finished watch movements without the case. The value of finished movements, without cases and of watches complete with cases of gold, silver and nonprecious metals, including chronographs and all watches of fancy design, amounted to $11.211.031. Of this total the value of the finished movements, without cases, was $S,2S0.72C. This li st figure represents about S3 per cent of the total exports of finished movements from Switzerland during 1919, the rest going largely to England, Canada and Japan. Indian Social Festivities. The Indians of Northwest and central British Columbia are now in the throes of the height of the social season. One potlatch scarcely ends before another starts. The Indians gathered at Morricetown a short time ago in large numbers and gave away to each other all their personal belongings. No one suffered, as each had a suit of clothes to give and take. Now, the potlatch at Hagwllget, in the Hazelton district, is on. The Indians have foregathered again. Another gathering will be held later in the north. Considerable business is done at these functions by the white traders. They meet the trapper Indians and buy the spring fur catches. Scientific Advance. Prohibition has developed an apparatus known as the ebullioscope, which shows accurately the boiling point of liquids and which brewers find useful for making off-hand determinations of the alcoholic strength of the brew while the product Is still In the plant. Another Instrument known as the cryoscope. which vorka on exactly the opposite principle, showing the varying densities of liquids at the freezing point. Is used for ascertaining the quality of milk.

TO MEET

Beauty Is Sacrificed by Paris Women for Styler Many Are Willing to Disfigure Features in Order to Follow Prevailing Mode. Not long ago, states a Paris correspondent iu ogue, In one of the crowded theaters of the boulevard, a fair-haired ' woman, sitting several seats in front of me, bowed. "Hut why should she speak to tue," I wondered, for it was no one that I knew. Presently, however, wrapped in superb sables, sh- left her chair, and when : she was quite close to me. I realized with amazement that It was the? glorious Martha, once famous for her dazzling beauty and animation, ilow appalling that any woman should be willing to so distigure herself in order to follow the model From a perfect oval, her face had become so elongated that her chin projected, and there were perceptible hollows beneath her cheek bones. Since It is the fashion to be thin, there are certain women who, although they possess beauty so rare that it should be considered a sacred charge, will become absorbed by this stupid craze to reduce their weight. This does not apply to oue woman alone, for there are eight or ten in every group who change from day to day, and are certainly far from improved. Often the apparent plumpness of a woman is, in reality, the result of unwise selection of frocks. Too many among those who would be considereu Irresistible fail to understand that they cannot gown themselves in the same style as their exceptionally slender friends. It is merely a matter of realizing the proper and becoming line. ATTRACTIVE FOR FALL WEAR Casaque blouse of blue and black Kumsi-Kumsa worn with plaited skirts cf pussy willow satin.

Vests Are Still the Vogue

Accessory Worn With Tailleur, Quits the Mode in France, American Woman States. An American woman who is traveling in France writes Women's Wear that there is a noticeable lack of the fine neckwear which used to be found on all sides before the war. When the fine linon de til is found. It is only in the smart specialty shops and at prohibitive prices. The vest, worn with the tailleur, is quite the mode at present, she states, and is seen In all kinds of materials. Sone have the rather masculine bosoms, preferred by those whose taste disregards the ornate. Vests of stripped pique, plain pique with large pearl buttons, printed jersey de sole in oriental colorings, sheer lace and net, printed linen and chintz, and duvetyn. are the rage, and many trptteur frocks are designed especially for the purpose of admitting their use. The plisse frills are fluted beauti fully with electric curling Irons, the ; newest ones falling to the waist and ; terminating In smart bows of organdie.

H FRILLED VEST AND COLLAR

v 0 rtr-r--

Charming vest 2nd collar of frilled embroidered cream r.et. It will add much to any one-piece dress or tab lored suit. whether one be slim or Inclined to rounding curves. More than ever are women affecting ornaments for the hair. It Is even possible to wear diadems and bandeaux of a sort of frosted passementerie made entirely of Imitation diamonds. Even women who possess most beautiful jewels do not hesitate to appear wearing one of these ornaments, with a result that Is truly surprising in Its effectiveness. It may be because the search for them through the old parts of Paris is found to be amusing. One has , to make one's wa through a crowded street full of delivery wagons, enter a workman's house, clamber up a staircase that is falling to pieces, where finally one discovers the counter behind which a smiling shopkeeper displays the marvels of her boxes. These creations made of imitation stones are copied exactly after the models of the great jewelers, and everyone from the most fastidious duchess to the most modest bourgeoisie who longs to imitate her, has climbed the terrible dark staircase to capture the bead dress which will make her as fascinating as Cleopatra or Catherine of Russia. LATEST FASHIONS IN BRIEF Braiding is More Popular; Angora Used on Sport Hats; Butterfly Bustle Drapery Worn. Braiding is becoming more and more popular for all sorts of embroidery. One of the prettiest fans imaginable is the white ostrich mounted on amber. A very chic design for a suit shows a mandarin embroidered coat worn with a plaited skirt. The satin frock with sheer chiffon sash is a favorite and the fancy is a charming one. It is predicted that metallic trimming Is to be much In evidence on the new fall blouses. Angora will be much used on fall models of sport hats of the better type, while clre satin In all colors Is again returning to favor. The soft flowing artist's tie bow. placed on a draped turban, with the loose ends hanging down and touching the left shoulder, is today the most striking small hat trimming. The butterfly bustle drapery is pretty for evening wear, but with a persistency which is astonishing women generally have declared for the straight frock, which is always graceful, comfortable and usually easy to wear. dye bath and presesd. After this, suitable decorations were added In the form of a little edge border of opaque white beads, with a simple but pleasing motif at the neck and at. the bottom of the blouse in front. This gave Just weight enough to hold it down and made It very lovely indeed. The beads were reclaimed from an old and Inartistic beaded bag of other days. HAT TO MATCH FROCK COLOR Shades Must Be Carried Out in Sport Suit and Headgear for Charming Effect. To make a sport costume very smart the colors of the dress must be carried out In the hat For Instance, a blue and beige plaid skirt, topped by a lightweight navy blue sweater. Is charming when worn with a hat of dark blue taffeta trimmed with tan worsted. Such a hat may have a roIN ing brim, with a band formed by braid Ing several strands of the beige worsted placed around the extreme edge and a similar band finished with tassels encircling the crown. Variations of this may be made by introducing different embroidery stitches. The same model in soft, bright, colored straw, when trimmed with white yarn. Is charming with a sweater of the same shade. Tints Are Delicate. Tints In both voiles and linens art very delicate.
