Blondes in High Favor.
Sarstoga Letter.

Saratoga Letter.
1t is an open secret that blondes are a
carefully cultivated type. That Is to
say it is very simple matter to trans.
form the muddy haired or indefinitely
colored young woman into 4 golden or
ruddy blonCe, and without the aid OF
costly or secret cosmetics or hair dies
The muddy haired young person has
only TO keep her hair thoroughly free
from oil by means Of soap and water
frequently administered to render it
light and fluffy. Her darker sister mt ell
only add TO the water soda instead Of
soap-when presto, change. 1t is the
color OF the hair re in orced only by a
healthful diet, which gives the required
complexion and tinges the eyes with
blue. In making these simple facts
known one really frees women from
many of the imputations cast upon them
in view of the changes of colOring they
undergo before the friends of their
youth whose memories are phenomenal
ly long. The great difficulty is to get a
uniform color throughout. One OF the
handsomest blonde heads here belongs
to q young girl with throat like a
swan, who masses her hair high on her
head IN soft, curling rings, and looks
like pictures of Marie Antoinette. But
sometimes these rings part and reveal
down in their depths the original brown
with a strange effect.

Just now. So says fashion paper, and we
opine that male humanity is apt to

But there is something odd following
this announcement, and it is this: The
hosiery is ornamented with insertions
of portraits and medallions in poiat lace,
or perhaps photographs OF loving swains
are inserted here and there into the
silken threads. This latter idea is novel
at least. 1t has the merit OF originality,
