with a warm spray turned upon your
head and anointed with cool, soapy,
scented things out of bottles There
is more hot spray, more amounting,
still another spray, growing cooler and
cold. Then the hair is dried as well az
one towel will do it, which is not much,
as it is the latest theory that rubbing
pulls out the hair.
You then sit in front of a large tube
with a lamp at the lower end of it,
curious arrangement for drying by hot
air. And the while this warm wave
rushes by you the girl is manipulat ting
the hair-not rubbing it, but lifting
and separating it in a gentle massage,
and you grow deliciously drOwsy, until
YOU need a cup of chocolate or some
thing more collaborating to bring you
back to the subject of waves
This treatment leaves every hair
light and individual, and the slight
waving gives the mass not compact
ness, but depth and mystery and q
decorative quality unknown to the
coiffures of the fashion plates This
aureole quality, this natural human
look of the hair, is well shown in the
beautiful portrait of Countess Potocl1i-
Such well kept hair, if arranged in
the mode by a hair dresser who re-
spected its texture and living beauty,
would not lose its decorative quality,
and bang would never be needed
to soften the outline of the forehead.
Frequently in some conditions of the
body the entire pilose growth will be
affected in the form of forlxed ends,
each hair seeming to be of different
length, the rOughness and bristling
extending throughout the whole mass
of tresses- In these cases no treat
ment seems eff1cacious to eliminate the
forlxed tongue feature excepting rig
orous and systematic smuggling.
The troublesome locks are uncoiled,
and coarse comb is swiftly passed
through them Then the hair is taken
in strands, beginning at the crown
Each strand, in turn, is twisted as
tightly as it can be, over and over, and
held out stiff and straight from the
head. The surface of the twist is then
roughcd up lightly with the comb I'M
til the forlxed ends stand out all over
it Then lighted taper is passed up
and down the twist until the outstand-
ing ends are burned away.
The entire hair is thus treated.
Generally the scalp is softly irri-
tated with the fingers after the SINCE
ing, and sweet waters applied, followed
by a thorough brushing until it lies in
smooth, straight strands, without
single snakes tongue Then it is
famed vigorously until perfectly dry

The Condm tor Put OF the Wheel, but He
Didn't Care.
When the conductor reached the baggage
compartment of the combination car in the
rear of the train, it was occupied only by a
few trunks, a brand new wheel and a stocky
scars on his face, who wore knickerbock-
ers, a sweater and peaked cap.
The man with the scars gave up his
ticket, and the conductor said;
You'll have to pay for that wheel,
young feller-25 cents"
''T'ink L will, hey?"
Yes, you will, if you want it carried,
and pretty quick too.''

''Well, I don't t'ink 1 will Seer Yer

''You won't pay up then?"
Nope. Betcher sweet life 1 won't"
At the next stop the wheel was given in
charge of the station master, while the man
in knickerbockers looked on nonchalantly.
After awhile the conductor came hack and
said:
You must be mighty pigheaded to let
your wheel go like that rather than pay a
quarter"
Wat would pay de dust for? De bisic-

Ten minutes later the salesman to whom

SINGEING TIE HAIR.
The Orthodox Modern Treatment
for Rough Tresses-
Cuatorn OF Clipping the Ends Every New
Moon Is Now Obsolete-StngeIng In
oreases Vitality of the Hair
and RevfVes Growth

Various modes of washing and
STYLES of massage are claimed to ben
eft the hair and cure it of i'll color
and weak growth; but for forked
ends, s'snake tongues" as some women
call the splitting of the ends of the
hair, there seems to be now but one
accepted remedy This is ''singeing-"
To-clip the ends every new moon was
the old custom. Every woman could
do it for herself, and in that act con-
sisted the entire scientific care of the
hair a decade ago. But it never was
very successfu1; the hair with ten
dency to split went right on splitting.
Smuggling generally stops the trouble.
Some of its advocates claim that the
old, Ignorant methodof clipping left the
little hollow tubes of the hairs open,
while smuggling leaves them closed,
stopped in a natural state. But this
is an exceedingly fine point of con-
tention.
Singeing, unfortunately, cannot be
done by woman for herself Nor can
two women do it very satisfactorily
for each other. unless they happen to
be trained hair dressers-
Women who are in the habit of hav-
ing their hair ATTENDED to- advise the
smuggling process once month Many
say that their own experience goes to
show that it acts upon the hair as
pruning does upon a plant-increases
its vitality and revives its growth
This treatment is now given the hair
at all frst-class hair-dressing estab-
ishments here and abroad, while many
women have a standing appointment
with some favorite expert for treat
ment in her own dressing-room once a
month
The approved process at one very
fashionable Partisan hair dresser's is
exceedingly simple, yet not safe in un-
trained hands. The hair is loosened
and shaken out, and the maid runs
over it with lighted taper, touching
all the projecting ends. A flash here
and flash there and you are singed.
Then you are swathed in Turkish
towels-gently inclined over the bowl
