woman in the world has such beautiful
hair as the woman who keeps we'll in

means that she frequently changes her
mode of dressing, and change in dress
ing is as good for the hair as intelli-

words, 81 always d." have been the

awhile into new grooves, and don't
cramp yourself by a foolish regularity.
