GRADY COUNTY PROGRESS, CAIRO, GEORGIA. LATEST IN COIFFURES decrees change in parting OF THE HAIR. Calls fop Considerable Skill In Ar : rangemcnt—Open Psyche Knot Is General—Tresses Must Be Neat In the Back. A fashion that has been shelved 1b the parting of the hair In front or at the side, although, there Is a definite line of oarryJng the hair from left to right, or right to ieft.' That Is the dif ference between the coiffure of 1880 and today. Sleek as the hair Is, It goes across the head stdewayB, espe cially In thg back, where It Is drawn up Into a French twist that has all been pinned flat and straightened out, so that there will bo no bulge In the smooth line of the head. There Is no fashion against the out lining of this flat French twist by a long ornamental 1 comb, but that Is only possible In the evening, nnd many fashionable women prefer to do without It. There Is great-skill In the way the hair Is brushed across the head and twisted Into flatness nnd It Is this . style of coiffure which 1b the most difficult for a woman to arrange her self. It is better done when the hair Is slightly marcelled, to give it body. This is not possible If a woman has heavy long hair, which so many Amer icans possess. If she waves it, she also thickens It and Is compelled to work out something original with the long ends. As she must dispose of these left overs in some fashion, the law al lows her to roll them Into an open Psyche knot on top of the head. In the evening she can catch this knot down with two small ornamental pins, preferably of Jet, and In the day time the small turban will lit neatly over the knot. The one law that must not bo broken in the coiffure of the day is the straight, clean line upward from the nape of the neck to the lower edge of the crown. Short hairs are apt to make this line broken and’ ter what law she breaks with the front of her hair, she muBt keep It straight and neat In the back.

OLDEST PIECE OF WRITING Sumerian Tablet In University of Pennsylvania Records Deeds of ^Babylonians. A number of ancient Sumerian tab lets, recording the doodB of the Baby lonians thousands of years ago, have been dedporedby George A. Barton at the University of Pennsylvania mu seum. One of these tablets, which tolls how a farmer rid his Hold of lo custs and. caterpillars, Is dated 4,000 B. C. and Is the oldeBt piece of writ ing extant, according to an announce ment made by officials of the musoum. The farmer, Doctor Barton's transla tion says, called In a necromancer, who "broke a jar, cut open a sacrifice, a word of cursing ho repeated, and the locusts and caterpillars fled." For this service he received a tall palm tree. That a canal waB constructed In Babylonia nearly 5,000 years ago is shown by another tablet dated "The year the Divine Naram-Sin opened the mouth of the canal Brin at Nippur.” Naram-Sin was a king In Babylonia and is supposed to have financed the construction of the waterway which gave Nippur transportation facilities with the rest of the world. A third tablet, dated 3200 B. C., records the transfer of lnnd nnd a quantity of grain for bronze money. Gold and sil ver wore known at that time, but were not used as currency.

Floral does not allude to the shape of the buttons, but to their color, which is chosen to harmonize with gown, blouBe, coat or bat. Take fresh breadcrumbs nnd carefully grate them with a nutmeg grater into light flakes. To every four heaped teaspoonfuls of the flaked crumbs add a level tea- Bpoonful of suitable sachet powder. Rose sachet answers for buttons In dark red, rose pink and pale pink. Heliotrope sachet is used for various tones in that color. A fixative is made from one heaping tahlespoonful of white flour, into which has been mixed gradually and free from luropB one-half cupful of cold water. Let stand 24 hours in a warm place. When ready to use, mix caYefully. Add to the perfumed bread crumbs enough fixative to make a paste stiff enough to be handled. Now add a few drops of vegetable coloring and mix. Cut the paste into the desired size for the buttons and mold into shape. Dip tiny beads into glue and pat into the button with the aid of a needle. Take some fine white covered hat wire, make a small loop and twist the two ends together to form a point, to be in serted into the paste. Dip the point In glue and insert in the paste. Place the completed buttons in a box in a dry place for a week. Novelty. , “Were you in the Easter parade?" "No," replied Mr. Meekton.
