The HUMAN HAIR.-Gray hairs
sell for q cent apiece. Hair dres-
sers inquire of their customers for
them, and beg that they may be
saved from the comb in dressing.
Gray hair is the most expensive
and difficult to obtain. There is
now a strong motive for young
women to cultivate the growth OF
fine heads of hair, as their tresses
in moments of difficulty may be
worth a dowry to them. Mothers
are warned against cutting their
children's hair too often. If it is
of good thickness at first, scissors
should not be touched to the head ;
cutting makes the hair grow thick.
er, but coarser. Frequent brush
ing while the hair is of moderate
lengh, and washing once a week
with a teaspoonful of liquid am
monia in a large bowltul of warm
water, is the best treatment posi-.
BILE. Keep it done up loosely, so
that the air can move through the
hair freely. If any stimulant is
required, half an ounce of dry
ammonia, rubbed into a pint Of
olive oil, is the finest dressing to
be made, surpassing bay rum and
any mixture of spirits and OIL
This dressing prevents the hair
from turning gray, if anything
will do 80, and urges its growth.
