THE CARE OF THE HAIR.
The Prevailing Styles of Arrangement
and Ornament.
From the Bqlttmore SUNDAY Hernld.

From the Baltimore Sunday Herald
woman is apt to arrange her hair just
as Dame Fashion DEGREES. Whether the
prevailing style is becoming or not is quite
a secondary consideration. At present the
hair is pulled and arranged in such a way
that each puff stands up straight with dig
nifty all its own.
The latest style of arranging the hair is
to have the bang waved and parted in the
middle 1t should be waved at the sides
and the back hair twisted n loops, each
loop twisted tightly or stiffened with q
piece OF braided wire, so that it stands up
by itself. The slightly waved bang is short,
and just beyond it are curls which assume
tude. The arrangement Of the hair grows
higher and higher.
Another pretty way of dressing it is to
have the parted bang, while the hair is
coiled into Grecian knot. Below the knot
are curls which reach to the nape of the
neck. To the women with low foreheads
new way of arranging the hair is to have
the bang slightly curled back with wavy
pulled effect Beyond the puff are a mass
of little curls all doing their best TO stand
as straight as an arrow. The fluffy bang
parted, the hair waved at the sides and
drawn loosely with Grecian knot is a style
affected by young girls. Gray hair never
looks prettler than when parted in the
middle and slightly waved. The su stitute
for bang is just few soft curls. The rest
of the hair is drawn up on the head and
braided. The braid is arranged in such a
way that it extends from the top OF the head
to the nape of the neck in a graceful curve.
1t almost seems as if every coil OF hair,
every distinct puff, has its own peculiar or
nament this season. There hte jeweled dag
gers, tinted feathers studded with gems, and
silver and gold pins of all varieties The cir
Giles of amber and tortoise which surround
the Grecien knot are a novelty. They come
with daggers attached, which are thrust
through the knot. The metal and ribbon
Grecian bands, with jeweled buckles, are
tightly banded around the coils and puffs of
almost every arrangement of the hair
The hair demands a certain amount Of
attention. 1t should be brushed thor
oughly every night 1t should be kept I'M
covered rs much as possible and the ends
Of the hair cut regularly each month. Soap
should not be used on the hair, as it makes
it brittle II the hair is falling out sage tea
is one OF the best preparations to wash it
with. The roots of the hair must be
rubbed with a sponge dipped in luke-warm
sage tea.
good way to keep the hair clean is to
wash it with fresh egg. Rub the egg in
until a lather is formed, then rinse the egg
all out in warm water in which has been
put drop or two of ammonia. When the
hair is dry it will have a fluffy, light
appearance.

For country and general outing wear,
says the New York Recorder, fashion has
provided literally this season, with dis
tractingy pretty silken waists and natty
blazers, and all sorts of cool. airy looking
things, as comfortable as they are pretty.
One of the most practical as we'll as stY-
lish costumes for outing is an English model
called the "Henley.' IL consists of bell
skirt and long, open coat Of diagonal serge
in blue or black the one illustrated is blue.
and a shirt waist of soft silk. beted with a
velvet belt and pearl buckle. The skirt in
the medel presented is of bright cherry
silk, with polka dots Of navy blue. The
hat is in very rough navy blue straw
trimmed with large bow Of cherry and
blue ribbon.
The Russian blouse grows more and more
popular, and is developed in all sorts Of
material and trimmed In fantastic ways.
An exceedingly attractive costume after
this mode for girl of IS has just been com
pleted. 1t is in gngham, plain aud plaided
combined. The blouse is Of the plaid, which
is bright tartan in a mixture of colors in
which dark blue and bottle green predomi-
nate 1t is trimmed and belted with Irish
point insertion. The skirt is Of plain bottle
green ginghsm; it has a slight dip" and is
trimmed with single row OF the insertion.

The use of simple powder for the face
in the heat of summer, says the New York
Tribune, is almost Il necessity of the toilet.
IL not only oools ami rofreshes the skin, but
it checks that profuse perspiration from
which many persons suffer. The best pow
der for this purpose is undoubtedly one
prepared at home. To make such a powder
take six parts OF good starch and two parts
of orris root, or violet sachet powder il you
prefer. Pound the mass to an impalpable
powder Sift it through q fine sieve if it IS
70 be used with a puff. A much more
agreeable way Of applying i, however, is a
ohamois~skin bag. perforated repeatedly
with a large needle 30 as to let the powder
sift through in little cloud IL such bag
is incnsed IN a dainty little cover, crocheted
of knitting silk, it will be quite AN orna-
mental as we'll as agreeable adjunct Of the
toilet table.
The best shape for a chamois powder bag
is flat circular one, formed Of two circu-
lar pieces of channels skin about three
inches across, sew together to make fat
piece. Fill the bag and perforate 1t. To
make the cover crochet two little mats
of white silk, tri1e larger than the cham
OILS skins. Add TO one of the mats a pretty
border III rose and white or palo blue and
white, or pale yellow, as you fancy. Lay
the bag of chamois skin on the bordered
mat and fastel it down with the unbor-
dered mat using row of No. ! ribbon to
lace it down in place through the meshes OF
the crochet work. The ribbon should
match the color Of the border and should
be tied in a dainty little bow at one side.

the existence of a green rose. This has
been avery well-&nown plant in the vicinity
Of Philadelphia for probably a century
There is no difference theoretically between
the petals of q rose and a rose leaf, and the
tranformation of one to the other in nature
is very easily accomplished. A green rose,
therefore, is nothing more than a rose in
which in forming the flower, the
rose has persistently refused to allow
its leaves to be transformed to petals
they still continue as leaves The petals
of the green rose are, therefore, nothing
more than green leaves. Outside Of its
interests as showing the relation between
leaves and flowers, there is no other interest
in the green rose. Certainly it has no
beauty.
