PiNLESS COIFFURE USED
ALICE EIS, ORPHEUM DAXSEUSE,
INTRODUCES NOVELTY.
Star of "Halloween" Declares She Uses
Net Only Because of Strenuous
Dance She Offers.
It took the genius of Alice Els, star
danseuse of the Orpheum show, to cre
ate the newest style in headdress, the
Alice Elm, Who Has Created Net
Headdress.
halrplnlesa No longer, says Miss Eis,
do the women of England need to re
gret with horror the military edict
which has been promulgated that, ow
ing to the extreme need of metal for
making bullets, no more hairpins are
to be manufactured. She declares she
has discovered for them and for the
rest of women a method of halrdress
which relegates hairpins to an age gone
by.
"Simply bring the hair down under
the chin, carry It to the back of the
neck, and there braid and tie it into a
bun, as you have ordinarily done," said
Miss Eis. "I have found this way an
excellent and comfortable way of
iastening my hair, and. I believe, one
that is attractive as well as unusual.
"Done up in this fashion, it cannot
possibly fall down and thus will save
women a' good deal of embarrassment.
Of course, on the stage in 'Halloween,
I am called upon to dance in such
strenuous fashion that I find it advis
able to cover my hair with a thin net,
bat the woman around the house or
out walking will never have occasion to
take this precaution."
Alice Eia and her partner. Bert

"We find business demanding fax better-informed and indeed
broader-minded men than were formerly required."
"A railroad man who merely knows how to operate econom
ically the trains on his tracks falls far short of what is ideal,
indeed of what is absolutely necessary y if he is properly to dis
charge both his duties to his shareholders and to the public."
"The banker who merely knows his local credits and can
successfully gather in deposits and loan them in a manner that
brings the smallest margin of chance that
paid cannot be regarded as filling ideally a position in the pro
fession of banking."
"An industrial manager must have much greater technical
experience and ability than was formerly needed, but he must
have far more than that. He must have sound views regard
ing the relations of his business to society and a more highly
developed social sense and responsibility than were heretofore,
regarded as necessary."
Frank A. Vanderlip,
President of the National City Bank, New York).
Mr. Vanderlip says, in effect, this:
You should own and use the new Encyclopaedia Britannica.
For, whatever your position or circumstances, the
Britannica is the very work you Require to promote your
self to the better-informed class. It is the one complete and
authoritative source of knowledge
for the railroad man who must know more 'than how to
run trains ;
for the banker who must know more than local credits :
for the industrial manager who must possess far more
than technical ability ;
for the merchant who must know more than wholesale
prices and profits ; .
for the manufacturer who must look way beyond the
.sky-line of his mills;,,
for every one.
This great work gives you what you need to master busi
ness problems: it enables you to respond with facts and
practical information to fortify your judgment. It gives
you the wide knowledge and broad viewpoint essential to
business success.
