On BRUSHING the Hair.

are brushing the beauty out of their
hair
THE incessant brushing CT the
present day is ruinous to the hair. he
says. ''SOme women used 10 give
their hair one hundred strokes of the
brush night and morning, and have
good hair in spite of it. An occas

good hair is in spite of the brush. not

LETTER FROM Joe CAIN.
Editor News:

Editor News:
Since my removal from Whitwell |
have been many times tempted TO write
you of the pleasures my family sXper-
fence in the reading of our faithful Wis
itor week after week, the Sequachee
Valley News. Our home receives the
following periodicals daily, weekly and
monthly, Mines and Mineral, Review
of Reviews, Health journal, Ladies'
Home Journal, Delineator, Cincinnati
Post, y. NJ. w. Journal of A., Christian
Herald, Leslie's Weekly, Public Opin-
ion and Sequachee Valley News.
Four of these come the same time,
and as Saturday evening as / return
the inquiries come from all of them has
the Sequachee Valley News come.
have to state that no worse disappoint-
ment could be offered than for me to
tell them that the Sequachee Valley
News had not came, and indeed we
would feel much disappointed should
the News fail to reach US.
The Whitwell News especially is an
anxious morsel with my family. 1t is
not only pleasant to read but it is re-
minder of many things. 1t recalls fac
es and places we all have met or seen,
that have been surrounded with much
pleasure in the past, and we would will
lingly give up any two of the others,
none excepted) whose cost is four times
as much than miss the Sequachee VAL
ley News.
Those at home may place great val
ue on the Ssquachee Valley News but
you must get away from home before
you can realize its true value. Doubt
less a little news from Petros would be
interesting to some of our Whitwell
friends, and had l time just now it
would be interesting for me to give
some of the news. may do this later.
However, may say that quite little
crowd of Whitwell people are here
whose number all told, including child
rem, is 49, and so far as know they are
we'll pleased with Petros.
Yours respectfully,
JOSEPH CAIN.
