Wonderful Hair.

The finest head of hair in San Francis
co Is said to be the possession of Mrs
Switzer. 1t Is dark, glossy and fine, and
reaches almost to the bottom OF her
dress. while a few years ago 1t traiied
yard on the floor. She wears it high on
her head. and no one suspects her of such
an overabundance until she lets 1t fall
around her. She is Obliged to have II
thinned very often, and there is enough
cut away to make plentiful amount
for another woman, but she never misses
II.
A young lady student in Palo Alto has
most remarkable hair. Light in color,
fine in texture and naturally curly, like
the hair of poetical fancy, 1t falls in great
undulating waves below the waist like
veritable mantle of golden silk.
One woman of German extraction, has
quantities of yellowbrown hair which
reaches below her knees, and yet she
can coil 1t high on her head and fasten
1t with one piE.
Three other women are on record as
having long dark hair, which Is It marvel
of beauty aud length, and they attribute
it's growth to climatic effects rather
than any special care, as soap and water
are the only tonics they use. The color
Of the hair seems to make no difference

quite as abundant as the fluffy blonde
locks
