SKIRT AND WAIST FASTENER.
"Women seem to be divided into two
classes" said a woman whose own hair
is beautiful; those who shampoo too
often and those who do too little for
the welfare of the hair. There is
very small intermediate class that has
strong, handsome hair by reason OF
sensible treatment. My girihood was
passed in small city that had prize
in the shape of an English hair special
list. was included in it because had
a wise mother. The first Saturday OF
each month found me in the hair
dressers hands. and to his treatment l
attribute a head of hair that has never
deserted me. / have only an idea OF
the nature of his shampoo, for it was
shaker from bottle on TO the scalp

ticle Of dirt was gathered up. 1t was
a soapy liquid of simple. harmless
makeup, he assured his patrons, so
nothing more was asked. After the
cleansing of the scalp. which left it
tinglins as we'll as clean, warm water
was freely applied to wash away the
lather and clean the hair, A thorough
rising followed, with a drying by
means of warm towelsYand fan. The
process was long, but many times bet
Ter for the hair than the hot air which
is feature of the present day hair
dresser's process.
After the tangles were carefully
combed out, the outer layer of hair was
touched up with brilliantine fragrant
oil, which prevented the flying about of
loose hairs, but did not make them heavy
as you would expect oil to do. 1t brought
out the brightness and beauty of the
locks as nothing else viii, but had to be
used with extreme care to give that eff
feet. A drop OF two rubbed into the
palms of the hands which lightly swept
the hair was all there was to the final
touch.
ST now prefer home shampooing, done
by myself, but not oftener than once in
four weeks. The scalp can be kept in
good condition by nightly rubbing with
the tips of the fingers. Failing hair can
sometimes be arrested and new growth
encouraged by means of olive oil, mixed
with alcohol to make 1T strike into the
pores and feed the hair roots. l know
the owner of beautiful hair who uses this
mixture the night before shampoo, and
there is no unusual dryness after the
cleansing process.
Frequent clipping of the ends of the
hair is as beneficial as cutting away the
dead tips of stalks on flowers which are
kept in water In long hair this is nee
essary to prevent breaking and a eonse-
quent raggedness The belief in SINCE
ing has died out somewhat but it has its
merits. 1t certainly does away with the
ragged, split ends.
A good wife should be a good house
wife, but good housewife is not neces-
sarily good wife. We know, according
to the cynics at least, that the best way
to a mans love is through his digestive
organs. and, be this true or not. it must
be confessed that bad dinner is trial
to mans affection, especially if often
repeated. But no one with any idea
about his own comfort likes the wife to
the woman whom he has chosen as COM
panion and friend to be wholly given
over to the work of the house without
any time or thought for anything else
The happy medium is what is wanted
the wife that IS sufnclently good mousse
wife TO make the daily wheels run well
and smoothly, and yet one that has time
to spare, at least for her husband, from
her housekeeping cares No man likes
to be set aside for the things which make
for his own comfort, and the woman
who is ALWAYS busy when her husband
wants her, too busy to heed him, who is
always occupied and must not be dis
turbed when he would take her for
walk, is running great risk of aIienat-
ing his affections, and making him seek
his pleasure elsewhere than in her so
