Detachabilitv" a Necessity

n"he largest spring in the world is
the Wakulla spring, about fifteen Tniles frrm Tallahassee, ria., It is 4 00 feet across, is eighty feet deep and flows at the rate of 120,000 gallons of water every minute. It gives rise to a river 2 30 feet wide at its rour re.
Ni:W YORK. Feb. 7. You may wear a detached air this spring, but to be really smart you must wear a detached lining to your frock as well. Not smart in the chic sense of the word of ro'irs but downright clever for though on of thes newdetachable linlngH won't add much In a stylish way to your gown, as a first aid to sanitation, hygiene and time conservation they have no equal. Just imagine the delight and re. lief, when the lining of your perfectly good new frock has become a bit soiled to detach it deftly and airily from Its moorings and nonchalantly tos.s It to the hand maiden who presides over your weekly wash board and industriously rubs her way through jour entire wardrobe. Then when she has had her way with it and it returns to you a bit worn but pure jou fasten it quickly in plac Inside your gown again and presto all Is as good as new. Surely every one but the dry cleaners are due to hall these detachable linings with Joy and rapture and attach themselves with great dispatch to a lining that will thus detach. Made of heavy washable silk the can be obtained cut to any measure arid can be adapted to any type of dress. Just for good measure they even com provided with an extra pair of sleeves. They certainly seem to be a mighty good thing to get next to or at least to get next to you. Yet another detachable not'
i.-nmis to enter into our spring '.hionable scheme of things anc! .hat is the return of the AJexandrii curl, as they call it in London, of the Janice Meredith curl as we knew it here, in days of yore. It Is that one corkscrewed tress that is allowed to dangle intrlguefngly over fine shoulder from a loosely pompadoured coiffure. Ten to one it is as detachable as the aforementioned linings, but to be firmly attached to the scalp does not bar it from the mode. It !s a question whether the American girl will lake very kindly to this form of hairdresis for here we go in rather for the smart and original type of coiffure than the romantic and curls are relegated to th realms of the films and reels and looked upon as the exclusive perogative of the movie queen. Iven if we don't fall for the coy Alexandria curl this spring many queer things are due to go to our heads in the form of oilcloth hats In every hue and shape, hats woven of ribbons, rafia, heavy string and cord and even of the succulent soda water straw. These latter creations are bound to be quite tasty.
NAVY TAKES OVER HOSTESS HOUSES Tho five navy and marine hostess houses of tho Y. W. C. A., which wero taken over by the navy department on the fir.xt of January, are being carried on under the department, exactly as they were by the Y. YV. C. A.

Siberian Girls Like Y. W. Classes Over in Siberia a staff of Y. W. C A. workers are slowly but surely making headway In organizing an

their benefit. Overcoming the mountains of difficulties which arise from the abnormal educational and social situation In Vladivostok has ben a problem to be .approached slowly and with eyes open.

On one day when there was a heavy rain leading questions brought out the fact that not one of the girls hid an umbrella; one only had a raincoat, and one or two had overshoes. In spite of thes few difficulties the trirls manage to attend their classes regularly. One of the secretaries, in telling of the hostess house which was finally obtained after much hard work, says: "Our hostes-s house is open, formally and actually, and a creditable hostess house it is. It is the first one, we are sure, to be made out of an old military storehouse, and the brick walLs, heavybeamed ceiling, small iron-barred windows, huge barn-like doors and thick brick supporting column make an interior not only unique, but in
terestingly attractive. "Tho furniture is of light wicker and unpainted pine in the social end of the long room, while that in the canteen has been painted blue.

How to make your old suit last
"It is not every man that can afford to wear shabby coat," Robert Colton once wrote. The words hold as true now as when first written, three-quarters of a century ago. Nevertheless, it is needful today to make the old suit last though not at the expense o becoming tattered. Between the costliness of clothing at the one extreme, and shabbiness of them at the other, there is a middle ground where economy and good appearance meet. v Our modern dry cleaning establishment is this middle ground. Here our experienced cleaners can tune up your old clothes and preserve your new. t- Every person realizes the business advantage and the social value of clothes well cleaned and neatly pressed, but there is more in these details than improvement of "looks" alone. Ask your tailor or your clothier. They will inform you that apparel fre
quently pressed, and cleaned at intervals of two or three months, will wear from 25 to 50 per cent longer than clothes that are not so conliderately cared for. .There is a sound reason
Send it
for this. You wash your linen when it becomes soiled it is a matter of self-respect and personal hygiene, of course, but it is also true that if left unwashed, your shirts would wear out much more quickly. Perspiration, oils, grease, and fruit juices have a corrosive effect; dust and dirt have a grinding action your outer clothing needs purging of these , equally as much as does your linen. The cleansing gasoline baths used in our dry cleaning process, and the pressing of the presser, with hot steam working through the fabric, have a sterilizing action your apparel is made, by our scientific treatment of each garment, as immaculate outside as inside, it keeps its shape better, and is saved from tell-tale shin in ess. Your old suit will last longer, and your new suit will do double duty if you will more frequently use our modern cleaning and pressing service, which is specially organized to
meet your individual needs. Get started on the road to clothes economy. Wc offer you prompt delivery and all the advantages of our up-to-the-minute dry cleaning methods Telephone us today.
