THE CARE OF THE HAIR.
Treatment of Badness and DandruH-How
to Keep the Hair Healthy.


The general law for the care of the hair
Is cleanliness. But this essential condition
is not always to be brought about by the
same methods. In some cases the scalp
and the hair itself require washing as often
as once every month; in other instances
once in three months is sufficient When
the hair Is in healthful condition, the
glands at the roots are strong end vigorous
and supply q natural oil. These glands
often become INSTRUCTED or weak in their
action and finally die. So long as they
are inactive through obstruction or weak
ness the hair may be restored, but when
they are actually dead and the scalp as
sumes a shining appearance nothing will
remedy it, Badness may be prevented; 1t
cannot be cured. The distractions are to
be removed first by thoroughly washing
or shampoGng the head This is to be
done by using water and CASTLE soap as
warm as il can comfortably be applied.
1t must then be thoroughly rinsed. Three
or four rinsings with tepid water are not
too much. After this cleaning the hair
for day or two is apt to be harsh and dry.
Special attention should then be given to
brushing and rubbing he scalp. One of
the most effcctual methods Of keeping the
glands in good working order and bring
ing out the natural oil is to rub the heed
gently-cither night or morning, whoa
you have the most time to devote to It's
care-with the balls Of the fingers. In this
way the hair Is not only separated and
the air allowed to pass through it, thus
drying it from all unpleasant moisture,
but the pressure upon the secretions of oil
causes activity and brings it to the surface
The hair should be thoroughly brushed
every night or morning with a brush Of
good stiff bristles. Wire brushes irritatc
the scalp and are very detrimental. For
tho same reason fine tooth combs should
not be used. 1t should always be remem-
bered that while friction is necessary, ir-
ritation Is to be avoided. Excessive irri-
tation will itself produce dandruff, the
most common Of the scalp diseases, and
often the forecunner of others of more seri-
Gus nature. In cases where the dandruh
is excessive and of dry, scaly nature, the
scalp should not often be washed and al
ways carefully. But even in such in
stances the hair itself requires occasional
washings to cleanse it from dust. In such
instances 1t is necessary to apply some safe
and reliable wash, which should be free
from oil.
After the dandruff Is removed proper
care and attention will promote luxuriant
growth and where there is not actual
badness will restore natural vigor. In Or
der to keep the hair healthy it is essential
that 1t should be trimmed about once a
month Merely choprius @ f the ends does
not answer this purposr The hair should
be examined, and every end that is split
and all hair splits after 'Jue-should be
trimmed off. These spit ruds arc dead
hair, and no matter how scanty the hair
is the sooner it is rid of this much of it the
better according to q writer whose views
on the care of the hair are expressed in the
foregoing

ment with the back facing outward, in
which case there develops numerous ways
of treatment. A drapery may be arranged,
as suggested in the illustration, and the
angle formed by the piano and wall made
to form a coy corner, or low Hhree fold
screen, with panels Of silkaline, may be
disposed against it, Very pleasing effects
in this connection may be obtained by the
use q growing or artificial plants of the
palm variety.
But when 1t is not possible to thus place
the piano, and it is necessary to have it set
In the usual manner, other methods of
adornment will have to be devised. The
top can be covered and the ends concealed
by drapery reaching to the floor. The
space above the keyboard may be treated
with suitable textile fabric gathered on
rods placed top and bottom and over this
arranged in graceful folds fcstoon dra-
perry This may be in one two or three sec
tions or may be a simple silken scarf ar
tistically arranged from time to time.

Dainty Colored Spreads Of Madras Etc,
Find Much Favor For Winter.
Renaissance lace spreads and round boil
stcrs covered with the same are the bed
trimmings most in vogue among the
wealthy folk, but there are n host of sim
Gle things which are charming and have
the merit of being available as well. Splen-
dor may be desirable, but somehow it does
not appeal to every ones sense of desir-
ableness
In young girls room, completed not
long SINCE the spread is described in the
New York Herald as of finest null, dotted
here and there with tiny rosebuds. 1t is
finished with full frill, and with it are
used pillowslips of sheer linen lawn, en-
broidered with flowers like those of the
null, and drawn over pale pink silk. The
whole outfit costs very little money, but
is simply delightful and has just that air
of dainty perfection which belongs to the
perfect bed.
Another attractive spread is of fine
Madras muslin, cream colored, with hg-
ure in warm reds and browns, and Is also
finished with frill. The bolster is round,
but not hard, and the spread, which is OF
extra length, is pulled up over it as well
as the bed proper. The effect is most
charming, and as the cover is only laid
lightly over the whole the bed seems al
ways invitingly ready for use.
Pure white is used by many women
and Just now is urged by some authorities,
but unless for summer or in the lightest
colored rooms it seems cold and unsatls-
factory. The old fashioned Marseilles or
pioue cover is very far from desirable, ana
the lighter, daintier fabrics require such
frequent change AS to make them moro
costly than silk White is only good when
it is absolutely pure. Anything approach
ing a condition of soil entirely spolis JUS
effect.

Women's Work and Wages.

The great controversy about women's
work has, l am glad to see, brought out
two definite facts-the one that women
can, will and must work; the other that
unskilled work is of no value in the labor
market and that where women do equally
good work with men their wages should
be the same. Not long ago | was shocked
to hear the editor of q leading paper say
that he employed good many women on
his staff, not from chivalry, not from
sense of justice, but simply because he
could get refined, educated woman to do
the work Of a common, uneducated man
at the same wages.
Now this is essentially wrong. When
women agree to undersell the men, they
GRE doing incalculablo harm both to their
own cause and to that of the men. Wom-
en- up to the present have been lamentably
deficient in self respect and in the feeling
of class union. The last thing woman
learns is that she must not live to herself
and her family alone, but that she has
duty TO the great community at large and
that love for her own dear ones must be
completed by the altruism of true enlght-
eminent. This, and this only, is the cure
for the miserable salaries with which wo-
sense of responsibility, desire for fair
field and no favor-these must be their
watchwords The education of women has
hitherto been to blame. They were not
taught patience, carefulness that quiet
plodding in the face of difficulties that
constitutes the value of a mans work.
They were half educated, wholly unprac-
tical.
Nowadays such things need not exist,
Half educated teachers, half educated
clerks, Incompetent people in all ranks,
can find no employment. There must be
raining-consistent, practical training
for women rs well as for men. The great
thing is to weed out the inadequate work
ers, to pay good workers adequately. Wo-
men are gradually learning the value of a
practical training, and when once the
principle is universally acknowledged we
may hope to sec different class of wom-
en- workers from any we have had hither
to. We shall find them taking pride and
an interest in their work equal to that of
men. We shall find parents recognizing
the necessity of educating their daughters
properly, and we shall find gradual ex-
tinction of those hateful sweating prac-
tees which have reduced civilized women
to a far worse condition of slavery thai
that of the African savage.-London

An Almost Magical Cure.

No more effective application of electric
ity is known in the whole range of cleo
trotherapy, says Professor Henoch, as
quoted by The Industrial World, than in
the treatment of diphtheria. In grave
case the galvano cautery was applied in
conjunction with gargles of ice water.
The application was painless, and the
false membrane rolled up and fell off as
by magic. The membranes do not re-
form, and the diphthcria process does not
extend The glandular swelling and tho
fever rapidly subside. In from eight to
fourteen days the slough comes away and
a healthy ulcer only is left.

Practical Advice About Carpets.

In buying carpets of any or all kinds
the housewife will be better pleased if she
buys those of small designs, either ara
besque or conventionalized floral and
which largely cover the ground floor, both
as a background to furniture, old and
new, and as rest to the eye. Carpets so
chosen will not become monotonous and
will readily adapt Themselves to change
from one rooal to another. Dark carpets
are seldom satisfactory, as they are too
somber and show dust badly. They are
only suitable for rooms of many windows.
Light carpets soil easily and add to the
glare of very light rooms, while those OF
medium tone are best adapted to wear
and to the cheerful furnishing of usual
rooms. Ingram, tapestry, body brussels
and all grades of velvet have bordering
woven to match This is priced by the
yard, according to its width, which may
be from to % . inches The buying of a
border is matter of taste. Square or
large rooms look more thoroughly finish
ed if the carpet has a border, while in long,
narrow rooms border unpleasantly de-
fines the lack of width. Carpets without
borders make over better, and in rented
houses it is undoubtedly better manage
ment to have borderless carpets in all
rooms, says The Decorator and Furnisher.
