tcaip Massage Proves successfnI ana
Popular with the Society
women OF New York.

The new method of making the
hair fluffy, and, what is yet more i'm
portaHt, ageable--namely by
nassageis gaining converts daily at
New York. The straightest and stiff
est locks may, by this method, be-
come graceful
All that is needed is willing and
active finger tips, which, once a day

lightly knead the scalp at the tenn
pies and forehead until the hair is
In that state OF fun admired by ali
but possessed naturally, alas, by few.
There is really no art nor mystery
about The process. Moreover, any
one can do it for herself.
The result is just. the same as that
once supposed to be attainable only
from shampooing, but it is much
more satisfactory. For days after a
shampooing the hair is unmanage-
able; massage makes it but the more
manageable. Shampooing, too, must
not be INDUCED in often. A daily
massage Of the scalp edges, where
the hair Is liable to become thin, is
beneficial in the highest degree to
the health of the hair and of the
skin.
When you see woman nowadays
whose otherwise straight hair fluffs
not artificially but becomingly about
her face in way to recall the French
saying that 'rhe ugliest woman may
be made beautiful il she but know
how to comb her hair" you may
know that such woman is indulging
in daily scalp massage.

THE ROUGH RIDER DODGE.

TO See President.

"If all these fellows who present
themselves here and claim the atten-
tion Of the president on the score of
having been rough riders during the
Spanish-American war are genuine
productions" said an attache of the
white house, there are enough of
them to form a line two abreast from
here to New York. The records of the
war department do not give half as
many rough riders who did service in
the war as have presented themselves
here and asked to see President Roose-
Yelt on that score.
Another class also numerous, is
made up of cowboys, who, on account
of the presidents hunting exploits, ex-
pect consideration"
This is true, for Saturday alone
brought a large number. who insisted
on an entrance to the president, say
ing they knew he would not turn down
a rough rider.
\ cowboy of the dime novel sort also
called and wanted to go up to see
President Roosevelt. saying he had
hunted with him. He was gotten up
in typical style. and, while on account
of the close district laws in reference
to carving concealed weapons, he had
only an empty case for his revolver.
he looked formidable enough to rout
any sort of game that came in his
way. He was firmly but politely
turned away.

ing is what gives the charm to it.
I shall continue to breed race horses
and hope for Derby winner. A man
hopes to have his children do as well
as they can in the world, and watches
them with anxious pride as they
grow up He wants them to amount
to something. Every poor man who
has a son hopes to see him president

this in a horseman's heart as he
watches the colts he breeds develop

Some difference of opinion exists
among army officers as to whether
Gen. Crozier'> appointment is per-
manent or whether lit is detail

eral gentlemen versed in military
law is that the appointment is per-
manert and that the detail of four
years provided for in the reorgani-
zation law applies only to the line Of
ficers detailed as chiefs of bureaus
Gen. Crozier will not retire until 1919,
and if the contention is sustained
that his appointment is permanent,
his term as chief of ordnance will be
nearly IS years, and viii preclude the
possibility Of any of the officers that
rank him securing that grade.
