THE WOMAN
BEAUTIFUL
By Mme. D'Anjou.
If you advice write to me.
I want all the readers of The Light
tn bring their troubles to me. All
letters enclosing stamped envelope
will receive personal answer and
all «ommunications will be held in
confidence.
Questions —Beautifying is not a mat-
ter of spending large usms of money
but rather an investment of a little
time and the cultivation of excellent
taste. A woman s clothes reflect the
woman's mind and her manner of car-
rying herself expresses her character.
Your questions concerning formulas
are answered elsewhere today.

K. S. —You will find that this tonic
will not. only eneou age your hair to
grow but it will remove the oil and
dust and do away with the need of ton
frequent shampooing: Forty grains of
resorcin one-half ounce of water one-
half ounce of witch-hazel one ounce
of water. Brush the hair well apply
the tonic to the scalp and dry the
sculp and hair strands with a bit of
clean linen.

Carrots —A caniptiored bath is tonic
and refreshing and is made by drop-
Ting slowly into the warm water suffi-
cient of the following lotion to make
the water milky and fragrant: One
ounce of tincture of camphor one-
half ounce ot benzoin and two ounces
of rolocne.

New York March 10. —Lady Con-
stance Stewart Richardson danced at
Sherry’s the other day for sweet char-
ity.
For sweet charity and incidentally
to see Lady Constance appear in her
bare feet and a Grecian costume with
he.- hair down the socially elect paid
$5 a head.
Tickets were by invitation.
The dance program soun !‘d like
a concert. Hero it is:
Spring Song—Mendelssohn.
Asa’s Death —Grieg.
Melodie in F —Rubinstein.
In the Halls of the King—Grieg.
Polka —Strauss.
But the affair wasn't like a con-
cert except that the music was
there.
The ladies “Ohed" and “Ahed" po-
litely as Lady Constance was reveal-
ed by opening curtains in her flowing
robes in naked feet and ankles. Her
knees appeared c-nce or twice in the
first number. In the second number
she knelt on the floor several times
exposing ticklish soles.
In the third number Lady Con-
stance stretched herself on the floor
repeatedly. The carpet was of vel-
vet.
Lady Constance declared to the re-
porters that half of the money was
going to her proposed boys’ school
and that the other half would go to
the Society for the Improvement of
the Poor and the school fund.
“I’m surprised that Americans
should think my dances immoral”
she said as she was being posed
for pictures. “Why just think of ‘Sa-
lome ! ’ ’’

at $5; Excellent Styles
They are of plain or chiffon panama in
black blue or brown.
U Three styles. One has satin bands stitched
fan-wise across the bottom so that the nar-
row part of one fan meets the wide part of
another; a second has taffeta stitched over
the bottom in a new flounce effect that is
very good; and the third has folds of the
same panama making a quiet skirt for el-
derly people or mourning.
T The material is of pure wool shrunk and
sponged ; the colors are lustrous shades with
no touch of “off-shade” in them; the making
is as good as you will expect to find. Al-
together you never thought to find better
value.
* Don’t mistake these for five-dollar skirts;
they are simply dandy skirts that you can buy
now for five-dollars. Fittings free by the
