Now that rats, rolls and multi tudinous switches are no longer In favor with Fashion's followers, there ia hope, that woman's haiT may be saved. i That much damage has been done we all know. Evon those who have been wilfully blind will own that their locks are not what thoy were in the rat-leas, switch-leas days. Tho hair that we have left is, perhaps, oily. Then tho best we can do Is to glv-a the scalp an egg shampoo onco a month and a dry shampoo half way between those dates. Care must be taken to keep the medium used in the dry shampoo on the hair, for If it reaches the scalp it's apt to cake there, and cause trouble. Or i>erhaps the hair Is brittle, which is a worse condition than the oily hair. The first move is to improve the general health and bowel digestion. Use a good qui nine tonic for the scalp and brush the hair well each night on. re tiring. It H's prematurely gray, sham poo every 14 days and use a good quinine tonic, putting tt en with light massage with finger tips. Brush vigorously every morning. Run fingers through the hair anil pull gently. This will improve the nourishment of the hair and help it to retain its color and luster. And dandruff Is a cause of widespread complaints. It ia caused by lack of air (rats, rolls and switches responsible) to the scalp, lowered condition of health, and poor scalp circulation. Weekly shampoos with rinsing in warm then cold water, exposing the sculp to air and sunshine daily, light massage dally and brushing thor oughly morning and evening will Improve conditions. The best aids to hair health are cleanliness, through monthly (at the longest) Bhampooe, massage, frequent brushing, and frequent airings In the sun —which its one of the most Important items.

The fate of canned drama may depend up on that. For there are certain inalien able rights to which no mere man dare deny to woman. She is guaranteed by an unwritten law fully as string as her right to eat fudge and sip an ice cream soda, that she may keep her hair ar ranged in perfect order, if she chooses. Can she do that if there are no dressing rooms in picture shows? And can she avoid disar ranging her hair, In these daya of THE JTAIM^L^ TAGB clear warm, then Id cool water.

CHRISTIANIA, March 28. — Miss Anna Rogstad, a school teach er, and the first woman to sit in Norway's storthing, or parliament, has impressed the whole country by the vigor of her maiden speech. The entire assembly rose In her honor when Miss Rogstad began her speech. She said the day would be memorable, as it was the first time a woman had ever spoken in parliament, and predict ed the success of the equal suff rage movement, which, she said, would be followed by many re forms. To spark the baby re quires more real courage than to lead a troop of cavalry. plenty, if she must take her hat off In one of those nickelodlons, where the seats are so close to gether that you cannot find room enough to change your mind? It's a serious problem—one that Dooley has failed to discourse upon thus far, that Henry George has avoided, that Qov. Folk dodged, and on which Balllnger has no comments to make. But the debate is raging somewhat fiercely in Cincinnati. Only the other day Judge Botle fined Cal houn Columbus $5 for letting a couple of women wear their hats in his show house. Small flowers seem to be highly favored for early spring hats. A new note in the development of thin drosses this season is the combination of thin fabrics with those of heavier texture. Pongees are much in evidence lor suits and long coats. Skirts not less than two yards around are favored this season, the narrower ones toeing worn only by the extremists.

NEW YORK, March 28.—Race suicide Is a bugaboo and largo families a crime, save Dr. William J. Robinson of Mount Morris, N. V., a practicing physician anß president of the American society of medical sociology, who strong ly advocates the giving of the proper information to the people as to how to keep down the birth rate. He expects to draft a bill making such information legal. The birth of a child, he says, often brings gloom and misery into the household. The first child is a treasure, the second and third less so, and the fourth is openly unwelcome. Families, he says, which have started out with bright prospects and all the comforts of life, are often plunged into the lowest depths of abject poverty because of too many children. It not only causes poverty, but ig norance, Idleness, aickness, crime and death. Dr. Robinson laughs at tbe claims of the disciples of Roosevelt, that people will stop having children, and In half a century tho race will die out. This, he saye, is a groundless fear and a silly calumny on the human race. "The parental instinct," Dr. Robinson says, "Is a pretty strong instinct. The parents are rare In deed who do not witth to have at least one or two children. Those who have seen the anguish of some wives who have remained childless will not share the fear that when the knowledge of the means of prevention of large fam ilies has become common property, the race will die out. No. There will be fewer children, but they will be brought Into the world with pleasure and hopeful expecta tions." MAN IS SUPERIOR SAYS MRS. OILMAN NEW YORK, March 28.—As some of the men have suspected all along, the men comprise the really super ior sex, and in the race for civ ilization the wo men are lagging several thousand years behind.

THE TIMES TOUR OF THE WORLD. BERN, Switzerland, March 28. —"The bent governed country in the world!" No doubt about it at all. Most people think of Switzer land as the most beautiful coun try in the world, but to those who are interested in the problems of popular government she is more than that. She is a demonstration of what can be done by a democ racy that is a democracy. Switzerland has no king, no real president even. Yet the peo ple seem to get along all right without them. Of course there is the president of the federal council, but you hear less about him in Switzerland than you do of the vice president in the United In the Days Before the Stork Comes Tin- Kxpcctant Mother Should Prepare Herself—.Mentally and Physically for THK ItAIJV 1 Isn't it true that we all wish <mr children to be Btrong and 1 beautiful?
