Most women have a keen sense OF the

rusty il ungroomed. To keep the hair in
| perfect condition brushing is absolutely
necessary; good. vigorous brushing, and
for fifteen m.lutes at time.
When performing the toilet for the day,
| and before retiring, are perhaps the most
convenient hours for this process. Women
| complain SO bitterly of the curling iron. and
| its injury to the hair, while they add,
I'VE cannot go with hideously straight

hideous If properly cared for. 1t will
shine like satin if brushed often, and will
| adapt itself to the shape of the head, as
| all healthy hair will do, and so fall into
soft, natural curves, which are far from
unbecoming.
However, for those fair ones W 10 feel they
cannot afford to spare the cured tresses
there is magical remedy, an enemy to
dampness, and a strong protector against
the cruelty of the hot iron. Byron has I'M
mortalized it in Don Juan in these lines:
Sin virtue nothing earthly could surpass
her
Save thine Incompatible oil, Macassarf'
And it is Incompatible to an astonishing
degree; one fair deyotee, affirming that
its application makes 1t possible for her
to emerge from repeated plunges into the
surf with beautifully curled locks, quite
as carefully arranged as when she went in.
Macassar oil is to be applied very meagre-
ly; one small drop rubbed into the palm OF
the hand, and thence over the portion OF
the hair to be curied will protect it wonder
fully from the too intense heat Of the iron
and successfully keep the hair in curl even
in the face Of fog and dampness.
For the summer days it is friend, in
deed, and aside from all these benefits, it
is wonderfully good for the hair, acting as
q tonic and beautifier. 1t must be used
spartngly, however, one drop being quite
sufficient, and there is nothing of the
hair oil" look about the locks when treated
with it.
Water should be used frequently upon
the head, 80 as to keep all the small parti-
cles of dust from the roots and leave the
scalp clean and free for natural action
The modes OF arranging the hair are le-
gion, but the girl whose beauty is of such
an order as to enable her to dispense with
all the frivolous curls and wear her hair
brushed smoothly from her forehead is
the girl par excellence of '96.
At most of the summer resorts curis
aud waves are utterly hopeless and so alb
solutely abandoned; the hair, beautifully
groOmed, Is worn smoothly dra wn back
from the face, but not drawn tightly, al
lowing it to droop softly over the ears and
around the edges of the forehead.
In spite OF its heat-creativc propensities
the low coiffure is exceedingly popular,
and worn almost to the exclusion OF the

In spite Of all the talk about ban
deaux having gone out of style, the fashion
remains as popular as ever, especially for
evening wear, when the most fantastic ar
Judgements are INDUCED in. Inky black
hair, OF satiny smoothDess, adapts itself
so beautifully to the baudeaux coiffure. The
