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.

WAS NOT A FLORAL TRIBUTE

the hair must begin first there, and

May Be Constructed to Harmonize
With Any Part of the Costume
to Be Worn.
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.
