I COLOR VIBRATIONS CURE
SHELL- SHOCKED NERVES

(B^ Associated -Press)
j LONDON, Nov. 23.—A novel exper
iment of treating soldiers, suffering
/rom shell-shock and over-wrought
nerves, by color vibrations is being
made in McCafil’s hospital. The test
is the idea of H. Kemp Prosser, a
famous color expert.
“Shell-shock is a disease of the
tissues of the brain,” he said. “The
correct vibrations of color will build
them up. I plan to do away with the
, the sense of confinement which af
fects the nerves by introducing the
color vibrations of out-of-doors. I
paint the ceiling the color of the sky,
the walls lemon-yellow, the color of
sunlight and use a few touches of
green, the color of bursting buds. As
the patient becomes stronger I’ll in
troduce stronger vibrations such as
violet and orange.”
One of th wards in the hospital is
now beiDg decorated under the direc
tion of Professor Prosser, for tests
upon shell-attacked officers.

FIRE!
A resident of Cordova had a
small fife in his house the other
day. It was extinguished by the
family at a loss of $150.00. The
next day he insured through us.
The cost of his insurance for
three years was less than his
loss at this trifling fire. Are
you, Mr. Property Owner, going
to wait until you have had a fire
before protecting yourself from
loss?
Any person wishing to build
can secure a fine residential or
business lot in Cordova from us
on exceptionally liberal terms.

| Hats for the Home Milliner
Providing the shape is becoming
and stylish, the home milliner may
undertake tin1 trimming of her own
hut with every chance of success.
Ready-covered, velvet shapes are more
or less simply trimmed, according to
the purpose for which the hat is to tie
used, hut In any cuse simplicity Is a
safe choice.
The covering of a shape with velvet
is rather a difficult undertaking for
anyone, but a professional milliner
and nearly all shapes qre, in fact, cov
ered in factories by machinery. This
part of hat making has been brought
to such perfection that there is a great
output of shapes in the stores, on sale
ready for trimming.
The shapes vary so much that there
! is no good excuse' for anyone to own
an unbecoming hat. There are small,
trim ones for street wear and large,
picturesque ones for dress, and those
that occupy a place between—just
smart, well-shaped velvet hats that
are equal to almost any occasion. The
home milliner, having made up her
mind as to just wlmt service she wants
from her hat, must choose the shape
and trim it accordingly.
It is safe not to aspire to original
ity when undertaking to trim a hat al
home. Those whose talents and time
are given to millinery understand the
art of trimming better than even a
gifted amateur. But a fair needle
woman can copy many good trimming
ideas. Millinery shops and depart
ment stores, also, show many trim
jottings all ready to sqw on the shape
-and in this way smooth the path <u
the home milliner.
I mmmmSjg?
Three velvet-covered shapes are
I shown In the picture for three differ
| ent types of hats. A small, round tur
| ban at the left of the group needs only
a ribbon cockade, a fur pompon, a
smart-tailored bow, or a fancy feather,
to be toady for street wear. It be
longs to the class of tailored hats.
The shape with wide, droopy brim is
one of those classed as “portrait hats"
and may be trimmed with a scarf of
fur with an aigrette, with an ostrich
feather wreath or fringe—or hand
some ornaments of Jet. Ribbons, metal
brocades, and handsome fancy feath
ers are appropriately used on hats of
this character or ribbons with flowers.
JS'lstal cloths and plumes belong to the
portrait-hat also. The variety of trim
mings for hats of this kind is almost
unlimited.
The third shape is a good selection
for all-round wear. It stands between
the tailored hat and the dressy hat,
and is classed simply as^a “trimmed"
hat. Less severe and less simple than
a tailored hat, it is to be trimmed to
take the place of either of the other
two styles if required.
For White Hands.
Keep a lemon near your wash bowi
to use on your hands after washing
There is nothing equal to a lemon in
keeping your hauds white. To be sure
you must use the lemon with care and
not apply more than once or twice a
day.
