Care of the Hair.
E. J. G..

Surely a luxurious head of hair is
one of woman's chief attractions. A
good many women start life with this
possession, and yet how very rarely
does the average woman retain the
tresses of her youth when once past
thirty!
To begin with, people know very
little about the art of brushing the
hair. 1t is woefully neglected. They
certainly brush it and comb it thor
oughly sufficient to be able to 90 it up
tidily, but no more. Now, the hair
should be brushed at least a quarter
of an hour night and morning and
this is not easy to do for oneself par
ticularly if ones tresses be thick and
long. Those, therefore, who can not
afford the luxury of a maid should
persuade an elder or a younger sister,
as the case may be, to lend her SER
vices in this matter, doing the same
office in return.
The hygiene of the head is an all i'm
pol'tant matter, and of course the skin
must be kept clean and in good condi-
tiOn.
There is no doubt that the waving
of the hair, which has been in fashion
for the last three years, has done a
great deal to damage the hair, partic-
ularly when attempted by amateurs,
who invariably use the irons while
they are too hot, often even heating
them in the fire. But as waving still
continues fashionable, we must do all
in our power to avoid ill effects. Hap
PLY the waving is now much loOser
and lighter than of yore, and conse-
quently does not require such hot irons
as it did a year ago. This is possibly
an Indication that tickle fashion will
ere long denounce this style of hair
dressing as demOde.-EX.

The Southern Girl.

In concluding an editorial inspired
cannot go to college, Edward Box in
the April Ladies' Home Journal, has
this to say of the girls of the South
land: "The Southern girl is surround
ed by life far truer and more cOndu-
Give to elf-development than girls liv-
ing in other sections, because social
conditions are more normal Her life
is healthier because it is saner, and
her mind, by reason of it, is clearer
and more constantly at rest. The rush
of life of the North and West is not
50 stimulating as many Southern girls
suppose On the contrary, it wears
women out as often as it develops
them. In no part of our country do
women look younger at maturity than
in the South. To the Southern girl,
too, Nature blooms in a profusion as
she does nowhere else. The natural
HISTORY which the Northern girl must
get out of books the Southern girl gets
direct from Natures own hand. She
lis born of a soil as rich and colorful
in romantic history as is the literature
of Spain This she receives as a nat
ural heritage. Her parents are, and
her ancestors were, among the best

types of American chivalry and Amer
lean womanhood. She hears but one
language spoken, and that is her own.
If there is the Introduction of another
tongue it is French, and with these
two she can travel the world over and
never be at a disadvantage. The re-
ligion which she learns from her moth
err is the highest and best because it
is untainted with modern revelations.
The truest friend and safest teacher
in highest living a girl can have is
her mother, and in the South mothers
have a way of finding time for their
daughters and being companions to
them. The Southern father is fond of
his children, and proves it by his pres,
ence at the domestic hearth after his
days business is over"

A HELPFUL CORNER.
About the Home.

Every home should be the outward
expression of the tastes of the woman
who is at the head of the home, and
here she should reign supreme. Here
she must show the fact Of her econo-
my both in time, strength and the wise
expenditure of the funds that she may
have at her command.
She must look carefully after even
the most trifiing "details of her house
hold and must only be satisfied when
She can look around her and see that
every part of the domestic machinery
is running smoothly and know that
she has every part of it we'll in hand.
All this can only be accomplished
by persistent effort and by much plan
ming and personal attention to every
department. A woman to be sue
cessful housewife must be somewhat
of a general, able to wisely direct ev
cry circumstance as it presents itself.
When she has accomplished all this
then she may consider herself a real
blessing to her household in that she
has provided for them a home full of
comfort, happiness and love.
And this state of affairs can be at
tanned without the sacrifice of any of
ones higher ambitions or more deli
cate tastes if entered into in the right
spirit.
But the housewife should not be
obliged to stand alone in this striving
after home happiness. She should be
aided and abetted by every member of
the family.

they can be as churlish and disagree

through the wardrobe and sort out all
the material you nave to work with,
and decide what alterations are need
ed. Sometimes it is not necessary to
take a dress apart. Remove the grease
spots if there are any, by covering the
place with powdered French chalk,
| then with two or three thicknesses of
paper. Set warm iron ON the paper,
and let it remain half an hour, then
| brush all the starch off. If any grease
remains, repeat the process until it has
disappeared. New stiffening and bind
ing will give the skirt new look, aft
er the goods has been brushed and
pressed ON the wrong side. If the
front of the bodice has grown shabby,
a full front of silk will hide many
shortcomings.
Quite often one has dresses that con-
tain good material, but they are soiled
accessories will make them look we'll
All such garments should be taken
apart and washed, then dyed some
darker color with diamond dye. Black
is always a safe change, and is uni
verSally becoming. No other dress is
ever so seryiceable as black one, and
it is suitable for almost any occasion.
1t is a mistake to suppose that one
need not be ais careful with a made
over garment as with new material,
for the ultimate success of the under
taking depends in large measure up
on the way in which the work is done.
Many amateur dressmakers, who are
ScrupulOuSly exact about fitting the
waist, try to cut the skirt
"by guess" The grace of a gor-
ed skirt depends upon the perfection
of its shaping, while it is almost i'm
possible to cut the shaped f1OunceS
without a pattern. Follow the direc-
tons on the pattern carefully in put
ting the skirt together, and after the
seams are seWed and pressed, and the
top basted to the band, cut off the low
er edge to the proper length, and put
on the facing and binding.

SELECTED APPLICATIONS AND
ILLUSTRATIONS.


The sinner may become so dead in
sin that the valley OF dry and bleached
bones represents his condition. He
is dead to holiness, TO usefulness. to
love, to heaven, to spiritual things.
He lives in the cellar OF his being and
not in the sunny upper rooms. He is
like a blind man in the midst of the
beauties OF nature" (Peloubet.)
The lesson OF the valley of dry
bones, whether illustrating the restor-
alton OF the Jesus, the resurrection OF
the body, or the life-giving power of
the Spirit, brings before us the lesson
that 1t is Gods Spirit within that
brings life to the Christian GA. G.
Syng).
What is true Of the individual is true
of the church A dead church needs
a prophet like E.akiel, or Paul. or
Luther, or Wesley, to prophesy to the
dry bones that they may live through
the Spirit OF God. (Peloubet).
