Seventeen year ago Verne Summer as running- a rood drug store at tiie corner of State and Hohman street, jfi the site of the present first Trust and Savings company. It was about tl.at time that Mr. Summers lease fxpi red and he was forced to move and hi- secured a long time lease on his present quarters. Since that time he l.as acquired space little by little until today he controls six thousand feet of floor space. Mr. Summers had a hunch that some (lay Hammond would he a regular metropolis and he wouldn't be wearing whiskers when that day came. Hammond has grown beyond his expectations and he's still using a DurhamIn l'Tex razor. Mr. Summers Is a drug: man. yet he has Injected some new ideas Into merchandising that ten years ago would hive made a drug man laugh. Last j tar he took on the agrency for the Pathe phonograph and sold hundreds o them. Drugs to keep you from gctt'.uit sick, music to keep you from .getting sour. And some folks said it was a poor combination, says Mr. Sumnitrs. "They are still taking my medicine and buying phonographs faster than I can get them - here on the
flror." The l'athe Idea was a big one v. ith Mr. Summers. He had faith J trough In these machines to buy & j hundred thousand dollars worth of ! ttiem. The phonograph end of the busl- ' nrss grew to such an extent that he enlarged his space one hundred percent and still can use more room. In addi
tion to this he has built a large warehfUMe for drugs, sundries, phonographs ai.d washing machines over on Plumm r avenue. One of the largest display and reception rooms In northern Indiana will b found on the second floor of thn Summers store, where all models of the Pathe phonograph ' are on exhibition. Mr. Summers has just launched a x-ampalgn to place one hundred Pathes in the homes oflammond and vicinity. To do this he is utilizing space in The Timeji to put the proposition before the I tople of Luke county in the largest possible way .

SALVD
The much heralded flare for embroideries as described in so many fashion journals is really Tery amusiaz to me. upon my return from
abroad, especially in the light of the way such suggestions are exploited and later developed in the New York shops. Undoubtedly Paris favors
rich embroideries this season and it
is well to so announce the style trend
of the bifT modistes. It is also natural that, upon inspecting" the most re
pent imports received by the t lfth Avenue shops, I should find rich gold
and bead embelishments on many of them. But what all these fashion
that, in the first place their news must be gathered weeks in advance as these magazines must close their
printing forms from fire to eight weeks ahead of the time that the actual publications are on sale to you. This is the shortest possible time in which such husre editions can
be printed, bound and delivered. More
vital still than this, however, la the fact that these foreign fashion notes deal with either the extremist novelties or else the products of salons whose prices are far and away be
yond the reach of the average pocket-book.
It is perhaps well that this condition exists, for, were some of the supposed authentic styles possible to produce in quantities that is to say were they ever to be truly popular I hate to think what a promenade of Fifth Avenue or a meeting of any woman's club would look like. They would resemble more a Ziegfeld Revue than an assemblage of we'J dressed women. In other words, it is not theatricalism we want in dress, but a smart simplicity guided always by the canons of good taste. I have always claimed that one can follow the fashion tendencies and be strictly up to the minute and yet never run to extremes. Small wonder then that some of the window show pieces I see on the Avenue bring a smile. They are show pieces merely, and nothing more. In the sketch today I arm offering a trim little frock that has all the ear marks of style and yet is suitable for the Miss who has good taste. The material is deep brown serge tailored in straight lines with a belt of brown and white kid. The skirt is daintily embroidered in a deeper tone of brown silk, and has two small pockets. Self covered buttons in graded sizes trim the smart waist, added to which are cuffs and collar of plain batiste edged with dainty lace. Essentially a school girl frock, this Co-Ed model is quite suitable for the small woman of mora

MOVIE ACTRESSES AND THEIR HAIR
Did It ever occur to you that every movie actress you have seen haa lovely hair, while the most popular count their curls as their chief beauty? In fact, many are leading ladies lust because of their attractive looks. Inquiry among- them discloses the fact that they bring out all the natural beauty of their hair by careful shampooing, not with any soap or makeshift, but with a simple mixture by putting a teaspoonful of canthrox (which they get from the druggist) in a cup of hot water and applying- this instead of soap. This full cup of shampoo liquid is enough ao it Is easy to apply it to all the hair Instead of just the top of the head. After ita use, the hair dries rapidly with uniform color. Dandruff, excess oil and dirt are dissolved and entirely disappear1. The hair is so fluffy that It looks much heavier than it iA its luster and softness are delightful. Adv.
