front while all the rest is shaved. A
girl of 9 or . has her hair made up into
II bow on the back and wound round
with red Grape, while the front Is shaved
bare and bangs danglc at the sides. A
young lady combs hers high in front

OF her head, and plumagcd with gold or
silver cord and gay hair-pins of gilt
balls. Some very stylish young ladies'
prefer to have their back hair resemble
half-open fan instead of butterfly. A
married woman must keep the waterfall
style, while widow who is willing TO
think OF matrimony wears her hair tied
and twisted around long shell hair.pin
placed horizontally across the back Of
the head. But when widow firmly re-
solves never to change her name again
she cuts oil her hair short in her neck
and combs il back without any part
