Gymnastic exercises, particularly swing
ing Indian clubs, will help, especially in
the development of the arms.
NOBE-Hair that is excessively oily
should be washed at least every two
weeks in water in which half a teaspoon
full of bicarbonate of soda has been dis
solved. If the growth of the hair is slow
also, the following tonic will keep it dry
and at the same time stimulate its
cantharides 2 ounces. Rub a little of this
into the hair daily. This tonic will also
help the daughters hair unless it is dry
hair, in which case the following tonic
will be of greater benefit: Forty-eight
grains resorcin, one-fourth ounce gly.
cerin and alcohol enough to fill a two
ounce bottle. The cocoa cream should be
quite oily. 1t is not to be used on the
face merely as a developing cream. If
your strawberry cream crumbles your
druggist must have measured out too
much white wax. It should be soft and
fluffy. You say your daughters hair is
falling. 1t may be the loose hairs that
cause the itching of the scalp.
AMBITION-The lemon hair wash will
am sure, be just what your hair needs.
Add one ounce salts of tartar and the
Juice of three lemons to one quart of
water. Take a cupful Of this and rub
through the hair onto the scalp,
then rinse thoroughly. This will
keep the golden tints in your hair,
