How a Well Groomed Girl
Attends to Her Hair

The following advice from an expert
regarding the care necessary to preserve
and keep beautiful the hair of maids
and matrons may prove helpful:
Eternal vigilance is the price of shin
ing locks. They may be brushed for
weeks and carefully trained, and two
DAYS neglect will cause them to lose
their well-groomed appearance. One
girl, whose hair shows the careful at
fention it receives, told me how she took
care of 1t, and / repeat the directions
for the benefit of our readers. Once
fortnight, regularly, she takes tea
spoonful of borax in a cup of warm wa
ter When it is dissolved she rubs the
liquid well into the scalp, touching the
hair itself as little as possible There ID
remains until the next day, when the
hair is thoroughly washed. The first
water is as not as she can bear 1t, with
a little ammonia put into it-no more
than a dozen drops. The hair Is brushed
in this water and the purest Of olive oil
soaps When 1t Is we'll cleaned it is
rinsed in slightly cooler water and again
and again, each time with cooler water,
until the last Is cold. The operation
should be repeated about five times, or
until the water is as clear as when it
was put into the basin.
Nor is this all the care needed for the
hair. Every day 1t should be carefully
parted in four, and each part brushed
100 times with a moderately stiff brush.

BY MRS. GEORGE G. BALL

If the hair is especially thick, this
should be done night and morning
The hair should never be braided or
colled at night. 1t should be allowed to
hang loose or mysterious broken ends
will appear.
There never was a time when wo-
mans hair occupied the important place
IN her list of good points that it does
now, and somehow her social standing.
her innate character, and, in fact,
whole history is revealed by the looks
of those locks which are either her
c0owning glory or her greatest detri-
ment..
