WHAT TO DO FOR THE HAIR.
The Correct Way to Shampoo It
COiffures of the Moment.

One of the most popular hairdressers Of
this city gives the following hints on the
care of the hair:
In the first place, it is a great mis-
take TO take too much care of the hair
Many women have an idea that it ought
to be shampooed every week or two,
which. in fact, is positively harmful. The
hair should not be washed oftener than
once a month, and, when naturally dry,
not more than once in five or six weeks.
In the second place. the shampooing
must be thorough as, il the soap is not
removed TO the last atom, it does more
harm than good. | had d Young woman
come to me few days ago whose hair
was actually sticky with the soap left in
it from the previous shampoOing. Now,
a few treatments of that sort would be
enough to ruin the finest hair by killing
the roots. There is a great deal in tne
kind of soap, too [ use an aim md oil
soap of purest quality dissolved in dis
titled water until it is soft and III n
enough to pour from the bottle onto Gte
head.
There is no end to the mistakes peo-
pie make about the hair Another COM
mon one is that great deal of brushing
is good for it, yet the truth is that too
much is far worse than toO1ittle. 1t oulv
irritates the scalp, and so tends to loosen
the hair. 1t makes me really angry to
read such advice as. Brush the har with
fifty. strokes night and morning A dozen
strokes of the brush every night will
keep it free from dust, and that i the
principal value Of brushing. The better
way to stimulate the scalp is to maSSag e
it carefully every night before going to
bed, or in the morning. One must be
careful to do it properly. Merely TO rub
the roots of the hair is of no use. but
rather hurtful The way is to move the
whole scalp covering in a circular direc-
ton with the finger tips, going over it
from the forehead to the ba:e of the
brain.
What falling hair needs is feeding,
and oily substances will do that Vase
line is excellent rubbed into the s,alp
lightly once a week, but it makes the
hair disagreeably oily. 1t is better 10
have a tonic compounded of oils with
such scientific accuracy that all may be
absorbed by the roots; then the hair Is
merly kept soft and glossy, as it ought
to be.
"A statment that one hears from time
to time is that drying by artificial heat
is bad for the hair. That is always ac-
til it is dry. No hing could be more
mistaken. Nine persons in ten would
contract a severe cold and, perhaps, neu-
ralgia by the continued current Of cool
air. The hot air pipe was a great inven-
ton, and when employed as it ought t.
be is not in the least hurtful. A good
shampooer, you will notice, lifts the hair
lock by lock-, shaking urgently all the
while, to enable the warm air to reach
the scalp. At the same time with the
other hand. she manipuiates1the scalp In
the way l described -2T,he hair dries
much sooner than it possibly could in any
other way, the scalp receives helpIui
stimulation, and there is almost no DAN
ger of taking Geld. 1hesquick drying OF
the hair Is OF great importance anu Can

The Spiritual Significance" by Lillian
Whiting. Little, Brown & Co., Boston.
Public opinion of spiritualisn, or, more
properly speaking, perhaps, "Spiritism, .
has greatly changed during the last quar-
ter of century. "A few years ago the
mention of the name provoked ridicule,
but the Society Of Psychic Research, BY
a careful sitting of the authentic from
the counterfeit phenomena presented, has
done much to convince the most skepti-
cal Of the existence of psychic forces
hitherto undreamed of.
DR.. Hudson, in his Law of the Psychic
Phenomena" rejects all idea Of spiritisra
and explains the phenomena by tel
epathy, the influence of mind upon mind
and mind upon matter. Other writers ad-
nit the domination of spirits upon the
medium, but insist the spirits are evil
and that it Is demonical possession. The
most reasonable view. however, and one
which is gaining ground among thinkers,
is that under certain conditions the spir-

Such position is taken by Miss Whit

to such belief, which her books indi-
Gated, and which, since the death of her
friend, Kate Field, she has openly es-
poused. One. cannot but be impressed
with the beautiful optimism of her faith.
1t would be infinitely comforting to ac-
cept her view: THE great sorrow that
has surrounded death, the consciousness
of loss with which it has been invested
would no longer burden our hearts, but
1t is too radical change to come quick
ly, and, save for the very few the silence
of the grave must remain unbroken.
