10 Restore Gray Hair.

was there ever any woman pleased
When the first gray hair was discovered
III her head! Certainly not; when the
all gray stage is reached, the feeling is
quite different. All, but the getting there
IS the rub. 1t is scarcely fair to criticise
thoSe that do all in their power to re-
move the traces of the unwelcome frost
%,nce 1t is not necessary to have wrinkles
Why should they have gray hair? To
children it seems to be the standard on
which age is based. You have all heard
the expression. Yes, she is old she has
gray hair. To the sensitive woman it
cuts like a two-edged sword. Gray hair,
when it comes prematurely, for the white
threads are frequently seen in the very
young, may be an inheritance traced
through a long line of ancestors Again,
too intense application of the mind, bust
ness cares, trials, and troubles, all these
causes show beyond a doubt that sub
JectS which disturb the brain or effect the
nervous system weaken the secretions or
cOlorlng matter and blanche the hair.
The theory is reasonable since those who
do not allow anything to worry or annoy
them, but go on in the even tenor of
their way, have neither wrinkles nor gray
halr. Why dark hair should be the special
color that frost visits, has never been
quite clearly understood, whilst there are
certain shades of brown that seem never

comes. and quite frequently. not even
then. Nature certainly is kind to them.
TO those whom she has not so favored,
science comes to the rescue. but the mix
ing of certain chemicals reproduccs the
original colorings, these applications,
however, should not be made by any but
an expert. Still there are several eX-
cellent restorerS that can be easily APP
piled at home. The free use of olive oil
taken internally and externally used on
the scalp nourishcS and Strengthens the
body and hair, and will prevent the com
ing of gray hair. The tiniest bit rubbed
we'll into the scalp will not make the
hair oily: on the contrary, will give it
life and lustre.
Walnut stain is Il perfectly harmless
coloring for the hair. 1t is made by
slowly boiling an ounce of bark i'll a
pint of water for an hour, then adding
lump of alum the size of Il small hick
CRY nut to set the color. Apply with a
tonic brush from tip to roots. If this be
done just before retiring protect the bed
linen by covering the head we'll with a
towel. n non-injurious colorng is made
from black tea, six ounces, boiling water,
one pint. Boil together for half hour,
keeping to the Quantity of water. Strain
and cool. then add bay rum, eight ounces,
oil of lavender one drachm; glycerne.
four ounces. BY substituting half the
quantity of extract of logWood for the
tea Il brown coloring is Produced

Are These His Reasons?

Here is nice little romance spun
forth by one man as to the reasons why
men marry:
when we ask you to marry us we are
admitting that we have begun to think
Il little less Of ourselves than previous
w."
'"Thc bridegroom meeting his blushing
bride at the church is there to yield up
his spirit of Independence. His boosted,
self-cOmpleteneSS has been all the time
Il mere sham. Now he finds he is I'M
able to exist without you, and SO he per
forms, in his wedding ceremony before Il
congregation of his friends and rivals Il
public pcnance for his previous pride
THE desire for marriage is merely Il
yearning for change. The man who
has spent all his life alone, or surrounded
mostly by men, is just the individual who
finds in the marriage state refreshing
contrast from his previous mode of exist
ence."
"A mans love is mostly selfish. Even
when he offers you his love he is cogni-
zant of the honor he is paying you by
giving you his name and admitting you
into his family"
Those of us who are romantic and
idealists see III you the incarnation of
all our highest sentiments. You are al
ways in love with love; we too frequently
are merely in love with ourselves"
What we insist on having is contrast
When we have battlCd with the world We
used your affection to soOthc us. When
we are depressed we need your gaiety.
You in your weakness have i'll your grasp
the whole of our strength"
when we marry you do not ever let
us have Il suspicion that you married us
for the condition of matrimony and not
for our own unique and estimablc
Selves
I'VE marry you because you have i'm
planted in our hearts, when we were yet

A bit of the kind of American humor
that has thrived since the days of Ben
jamin Franklin comes from a Montana
mining camp. Said one miner: THE
rock down in that shaft is so hard they
used six barrels of drills the other day
and barely scratched it, "Ugh!' said
another. Il saw 'em working on a ledge
once where the rock was so hard that
after they had used nine barrels of drills
ON it the hole stuck out six inches"
