The SWediSh Shampoo.

Some Of the terTOrs Of a shampoo are

but there is such thorough manipulation
and massage Of the scalp that the circu-

first part Of the treatment is a vigorous
combing. This is done with a kind of
curry comb. consisting Of piece Of leath-
or. studded with short. flexible metal
teeth, slanting sufficiently 20 prevent them
from scratching the scalp. This comb is
brought firmly through the hair again and
again. removing all dust and dandruff
from the scalp. Next the hair is parted
and an absorbent powder shaken in.
whose mission is 10 cleanse the hair and
keep it dry and fluffy. Then comes the
brushing. and this is most thoroughly
done, every little strand being held up
and freed Of its dust and dandruff. and
brushed glossy and clean. A Russian
hogs hair brush with natural bristles is
used. Sometimes a tonic is rubbed in.
But the main thing is the manipulation
Of the scalp and the use Of the cleaning

FROM WOMAN S
POINT OF VIEW

Beauty specialists are no nearer an
agreement on remedies for complexion
ills. or even the causes OF them. than
are physicians over bodily ailments. One
will tell you that coffee makes bad
skin in the face OF evidence offered by
the dazzling compilations Of Swedish
women who drink coffe as the English
take tea, for an afternoon diversion every
day in the year
Another will tell you 10 cultivate the
cold cream habit and give you formula
containing one or two fine hair growers
in the shape OF animal fats. The av-
erage woman prefers wrinkles TO whis-
kers. so this advice is hardly happy in
results As a matter OF fact. good health
is the foundation Of good complexion,
and a clean skin is an attractive one.
Our feminine ancestors owed their good
looks to both cleanliness and rain water,
but We who live in dust and use hard
water find the task of keeping the SKIN
clean rather difficult.

plexions owned by middle-aged matrons
who used no cosmetic but rain water.
The supply was obtained by taking ad-
vantage Of every shower and bottling the

To-day may be taken as the Fourth of
