Dressing the hair becomingly is quite

not blessed with abundance. A really fine
head of hair is rare, and, therefore, the
difficulty is pretty general.
The great thing is to dress the hair TO
suit the features and shape OF face and

Arrange your hair with art and grace,
Let each person learn the style bess

following the fashion instead of arrang-
ing che hair to suit the individual.
This Is not difficult matter If a handgla s
is held so that a side view Is obtained OF
the face. A good plan is to let tiFst-
class hair dresser DO your hair in style
to suit the shape OF your head and face,
then copy It,
Washing and brushing the hair with a
medium stiff brush will keep 1t in good
cond ton. and prevent dandruff, but the
latter sometimes is a trouble independent
Of this care. Dyspepsia. combined with
acldity OF the stomach, rheumatism, and
an affection OF the scalp called pltyriasis,
all result more or less in dandruff and
dryness OF the skin generally. The latter
causes the hair to fall to an alarming en-
tent leaving patches of badness which
take a long time to cure, and gray h 4 S

the treatment should commence with a
