POINTS OF BEAUTY.
II Is Largely q Matter Of shampooing the
Hair IN the Right way-To Make the
Hair Glow Is One OF the Important
Secrets Of the Professional Beauty.

| Deauty, signed an enylouB girl, ana nave
been trying to discover why she is a beauty
1 think now I have solved the problem
1t In her hair that makes her handsome.
Il was in London this last season wher
The Princess Of Pless created her usua
sensation in society. The Princess has
been the reigning beauty in the Queens
set for three seasons. This is quite while
to keep ones be!ledom. And. judging
from her triumphs this year, she will con-
tinue to be belle another year.
'She is remarkable for several beautiful
features. Her complexion and the tur-
quoise OF her eyes count for much. And
her teeth are pearls. But it Is, after all,
her hair that makes her remarkable.
Not exactly gold. not exactly brown.
and not quite q red. and very far from
black, it is hair that catches the light, and
Is all colors In one. Mrs. K. an envious
woman, declares that she saw 1t once when
it looked positively green, while in its
depths there are dusky lights.
1The Princess sometimes wears her hair
In the American fashion. with halo around
her face. The hair is brushed up over a
big roll, so as to frame her features. 1t
forms big pompadour.
Sometimes the Princess wears her hair
in English fashion, that is, in a coil on
top of the head. The entire front hair is
then curled and il laid in waves and ring
lets upon the forehead. The curls are
brought down to the eyebrows and the
temples are covered with mass OF little
waves.
This Is the style OF couture known as
the Alexandrine Golf. 1t is 30 named
because the Queen OF England always
wears it.
'The Princess, who ranks as the most
beautiful woman in England, has a hair
dresser who understands the art Of making
the hair shine. This is a very valuable
piece Of knowledge. 1t should not be neg
lected by any woman. Judging by the
Princess and her triumph. It is one Of the
greatest beauties a woman can have-shin-
ing hair.
AS for me, am going out to buy the
ingredients for shampoo mixture that
will make my hair glow like the sunshine.

week rlti oct 1t as light as feather, as
fluffy as down and az bright as silver
The girl hurried of to buy her shampoo
mixture and within two hours she had
hair that was like ray Of light. That is
the only way to describe hair that is prop
erly shampooed. 1t will glow like light
To make the hair glow should be the
study OF every woman. There are certai in
make it darker, and others that are just
the thing for light hair to make 1t lighter.
Dark hair needs plain soap and good
scrubbing brush. Otherwise the heavy
oils Of dark hair cannot be removed.

with hot water. Let the water be as warm
as can comfortably be borne by the hand.
Do not burn the scalp OF injure the head
in any manner. ..
Now take good plain soap and work it
into a lather with the hands. Make the
lather very heavy, and when there is full
cup OF 1t begin with a massage movement
and spread 1t upon the hair in a thick paste.
working the hair and the lather together.
Never rub a cake Of soap upon the hair.
II will be impossible ever to cleanse the
strands after this has been done. Use a
goou pure soap. a complexion soap. or,
better still, good bath soap. And do
not be stingy Of it. Use plenty. Half a
10 cent cake is not too much.
The !ather should remain upon the hair
at least five minutes. Reed a book while
the coating Of lather is soaking in. And,
when the five minutes are up, rinse and
rinse.
There is only one way to rinse the hair,
and that Ia with bath spray. Spray
the hair with sprayer attached to rub
Der pipe, Spray it until all the suds are
rinsed off. Let the water be hot and use
at least six gallons Of it.
With the spray attached to the faucet
the hair can be rinsed and rinsed and every
particle OF soap can be taken of it. But,
where II must be sprayed out of a tub or
pail OF water the operation rs much more
dificut. Still 1t can be done. In the last
spraying water put little powdered bora1.
Black hair and white hair are best sham
pooed with plain hot water and good plain
soap Foreign substances, such as eggs
ammonia and soda, may injure the color.
But light hair can stand a great deal OF
manipulation to make 1t shine, and very
often it will not glow unless it is treated
in several ways, one after another.
There are those who like to use little
bicarbonate OF soda in the rinsing water.
This can be done. and the bicarbonate
allowed to remain upon the hair three or
four minutes But 1t should be rinsed of
finally.
For hair that is almost red this is a very
good prescription: Soap jelly, bicarbonate
OF soda, three drops OF ammonia, and a
rinsng water OF borax and hot water.
Soap jelly Is made by taking ones bits
be put in bit OF muslin and pounded fine.
The result will be soap powder. and this
powder can be put In a vessel and covered
with hot water.
This is set on the back Of the stove until
the whole is melted. 1t is then poured
into a jar and put away to get COOL. When
shampooing the hair cover the head with
