New YoRK, Dec. 6.-Trayeling slowly,
stopping often, goes the hair in its way
from low to high. Long delayed thus, 10
the promised transit the more SO, as In
mot few cases, the primeyL coil does
not bulge. In wonted convenience II
remains, setting bad example to pro-
crossing wsyfarers and often Atemptation
to backsliding. Since Is we all know,
there Ia something SO delightfully."- easy in
that simple rolling Up Of the hair that
the burdened woman clings TO IL. Rven
the belle, moreover, to whom domestic
tribulations are dim speok, finds after
leisurely survey of herself In two
mirrors, that nothing exhibits q well
shaped head like the low coil, and the |
low coil, therefore, she wears Yet there
are times when very anxious wives |
or mothers wish to bestow extra touches,
or the classioAlly inclined beauty desires |
change TO the Frenchy and newfsngled. |
30 here comes In an opportunity for q |
modest assemblage Of twistings and fancy |
interweavings brought up higher, either |
reaching lengthwise from front frizzss 10 |
q near approach to the neck, or remain
ing in short coiifare. Yet In no case is
1t exaggerated; modest always and
occasionally with the addition Of few
short ourls. Every attempt against
trizzes comes to nAught. They grow and
are mighty. They have waxed despotio,
and no escape is possible, except
now and then where the PompAdour
roll comes forward with q special
dignity SO well adapted to some special
style of face that gainsayers are brought
to silence. Where the natural hair is
good, II were best TO ont II some distance
back and, At the expense Of curl papers,
keep It In 8 wavy huotustion over the
brow or bind IL down when warm rainy
day brings straightness. But where
nature is too niegardly for this, one must
90 the hair dresser and be fitted ont.
Good taste Is inestimAble here. Since
rules give way before individual psouli-
arities. one must closely consult the
looking glass or some Jonathan Of .
friend.
