8 IIY THE CIIATTKKF.B As the winter is coming mi and there wilt be many theater patties given for the brides-elect ami tha debutantes, it seems to me th< theaters where so many of our younger folk like to go should tint! some way to alleviate the growing nuisance of seating late comers during a perform^ ancc. 1 have been mativ times lately and have been greatly annoyed I y the tramp, tramp of tha ushers down the aisles, drowning completely ail that was going on behind the foot lights, it seema to me that for those who have taken the trouble and care to be on time some consideration should be shown, an.l thosa who are < ither too lazy or too Indolent to be at the theater at the time spi should be compelled lo remain outside \intil the act is completed. I remem ber when Mrs. Fiske gave an act from "Teas of the D'Urbervllles' for the benefit of the S. C. P. A. I ha] to be only a minute late, for the ap plause given the entrance of the ar tiste on the stage could be heard. I remained in the outside lobby until 'he act was completed, and although that was the only act which was of Interest to me I felt that I had no right to complain. I think I flttd there r.re many who agree with mo that if the management would lnsltit on the au dience coming before tha curtain rises or olse remain outside until the act is over the annoyance to those who have come early might be avoided Society is much interested in the plans being made for the entertain ment of the National Hankers' asso ciation, which will convene in I«OS An geles the first week of October.

To prepare this treatment make a simple syrup with v cup and a half of granulated sugar and enough water to make a pint. To this add one ounce of true prallol (be. careful not to get the syn thetic). Shake well and then take two tahlespoonfuls two or three times each day and soon you will have a well rounded and attrstt'tive form. AXSWKRS TO QUEHIBa Dollu X.: Clogging of your skin's pores may be duo to excessive uaa of powder, which is apt to cause black heads and pimply eruptions and coarsen the skin. If you will use the following iis a massage it will clean and clear the skin and give it that pink, satiny glow of youth: Bring a pint of water to the boiling point, then pour Into a pint jar and add three ounces of ccrol crystals, stirring con stantly until thoroughly dissolved and a thick, greaseleu cream is formed. Use this freely, massaging into face, neck and arms until it disappears: it will not grow hair and you will never have to use powder or rouge. # LAST DATES pastern fxcursions Sept. 21-22-23, DENVER. .$55.00 COLORADO SPRINGS AND PUEBLO Return Limit Oct. 31 Oct. 7 and 8, KANSAS CITY $60 OMAHA AND TOPEKA Return Limit Oct. 31 ,:;::;; ;.-.-;„ «a Through Sleepers Via % Sirs ■ Salt Lake Route I'Madtna.

Don't fall to read it. ■lII.' other is a wonderfully interest ing descriptive on the be ginning of the California Orange Industry. Go to your nearest dealer and buy a copy of the October num ber of the The Pacific Monthly. MADAME MAREE D. N.: Your falling hair is due to an excess of dandruff, and the best shampoo I can recommend is eggol, which removes dandruff and acts as a scalp food. Use this eggol shampoo every two weeks at thp start, followed with a tonic made by adding one-half pint of pure water to the same amount of grain alcohol; let stand for five minutes, then put in one ounce of beta-canthol. Use the tonic daily for a month, then twice a week after that. This treatment will stop the hair from falling out and make it grow in thick and glossy. Ruth S.: Don't be discouraged. The hairs on your chin are easily removed by uslii;; a paste of powered delol and warm water. Take a little deiol and add just enough water to form a soft paste; cover the hairy spot thickly with this and let it remain for two or three minutes, then scrape off and you will find tht« hairs have disappeared. You can get delol from your drug gist, in ounce bottles, and while It Is slightly expensive, It is worth several times its cost, us It is unfailing. Dorothy M.: For that roughness and "lobster hue" to the Hkln of which you write, I would suggest using the amarol preparation, which is made by dissolving, thoroughly, two ounces of amarol in one pint of hot water. Shake this well and let stand over night, then apply as you would any complexion lotion, and your skin will soon become smooth and clear and re sume its natural flesh tint.
