There Is nothing as good for the hair as
a sun bath. The Greek maidens of old
who sat on the walls of the city and combe d
their hair owed the beauty of their tresses
to the SUMS rays.
When the hair is washed sit beside a
lowered window, as the sun shines stronger
through glass, and allow the hair to dry
as it is being brushed. No bleach has been
found so successful as the sun, which
strengthens and beauties generally
When the hair shows a tendency to fall
out the very best thing to stop its coming

use of genuine olive oil. Saturate the hair

that reads:

Law Relating to Sales of Produce.

Eppa Compton, a resident of Fairfax
county, Va, was today arraigned in the
Police Court before Judge Scott and jury
to answer the charge Of violating the law
in reference to selling produce in the Dis

that Mr.. Compton, who admitted that he
has been in the habit of making sales in
Washington, and that he has no license
from The District to transact business here
should have such license. and Mr.. Compton
asserts that the law does not say that he
should. After hearing the testimony thus
far, Judge Scott said he desired to INFORM
himself thoroughly on the statutes relative
to the subject, and postponed the further
hearing until July ID.
