ARE OF THE HAIR
cIEANsERs SHOULD BE CHOSEN
WITH REGARD TO COLOR.
The Necessity Of Care in Selecting n
Cleansing Agent-Amount of Nat
uraI Chemicals Is not the Same In
ANY Two Heads.

while Il Is true that few sham
moo mixtures are efllcacious for all
conditions OF scalp and hair. It Is
equally beyond doubt that the major
,ty of cleansers, to be OF real benefit,
should be chosen with regard to the
color of the tresses and the state OF
the scalp.
The necessity Of selecting a clean
ing agent that agrees with both hair
folllcles and the scalp will be readily
understood when 1t Is realized that
the color OF the locks is governed
entirely by natural chemicals, and
when hair begins to turn gray 1t Is
because these shades. either from
age or illness, fade. II It were pos
slble to know precisely to what de-
gree the fading exists, then there
might be made most perfect hair re-
storers, but unfortunately this in
formation cannot be given.
Parenthetically, II may be said
that the amount of natural chemicals
Is not the same In any two heads,
and this accounts for the fact that n
dye that Is so-called perfect" for
one, may make practically no i'm
preston on the other.
For instance. the colors that
would harmonize with blond hair
should contain a large percentage OF
sulphur. Brown has much carbon,
red contains iron and sulphur and
black has oxygen and sulphur.
That shampoos containing these
various elements for the differ rent
shades of tresscs will help to main
tain the color, II not to increase the
natural shades. Is therefore logical
conclusion.
For the average blonde the whites
of raw eggs are best. They contain
no coloring matter and are soften
Ing and cleansing.
In making the whites into a sham
poo use a tablespoonful OF warm wa
t. for each white. and the tive
should be beaten together before be
ing rubbed into the scalp and ovel
the hair No soap is required.
A cleansing mixture for red ol
brown hair is made from the yolk'
or the whole egg. The yolks con
tain sulphur and become natura
colorlng agent.
For black and dark brown hair ;
combination OF claret Is an excellen
one. To half pint of 1t raw eg,
"a added. The two are well beatel
and rubbed thoroughly over the hal
and head before rinsing In clean wa
ter. This is not a mixture to b.
used by pronounced blondes.
Any of these Is simple to use and
II persistently applied, the hair. af
ter years. will show the benefit de
rived. All are soap substitutes. n
soap should ever be rubbed directl
upon the hair, but must be dissolve
first and applied in jelly or liQui
form.

TWO ATTRACTIVE WINDOWS,

That Christmas is coming was
forcibly impressed upon The
Advertiser man by an inspection
of Levy Bros.' show windows a
few days ago. Mr.. Albert La
casse, who is employed in the
store, has exercised much inge
nuity and artistic taste in the
decorations and it certainly does
one good to stop while and ad-
mire the beautiful wreaths OF
holly so effectively arranged.
The pretty red berries glowing
among the green leaves call to
mind all the tender and beautiful
customs associated with this, the
happiest day of all the year.
Take a look at these windows and
you will feel better.
Mr.. T. M. Biossat has also fall.
en- into line to the thrilling music
of Christmas time and has deco
rated his jewelry show cases
with holly. Just take peep and
see for yourself.

REMOVALS AND CHANGES.

Mr.. Arthur Leblanc has secured
through exchange the corner lot on
Madison street opposite the Lacoste
Hardware store and will remove to
this site his large two story building
on Lafayette street. Dole Broussard
& Co. will occupy the new stand and
run saloon, billiard room and res
taurant in connection.
Vigneaux's, undertaking establish
ment as consequence of the above
change will now face Lafayette street,

Robert Fl. McFaddin, the well-known
grocer, has been compelled, on ac-
count of his increasing business, to
secure larger quarters and after Jan.
l will be found in the large brick
building now occupied by Immergluck
& Schitftan on Lincoln avenue. Mr.
McFaddin says there will be no inter-
ruption in business and his new estab-
lishment will enable him to handle his
ever expanding trade with much great
er facility than ever before.
P. Rodolph Roy and Paul Mouton
will occupy the store vacated by r..
H. McFaddin and will carry large

SCHOOL BOARD AUDIT.

The new Parish School Board
which organized last Thursday,
has. through Capt. J. G. Buch
anan and DR.. F. r. Tolson, Sc
cured the services of Mr.. Ed.
Boyle, of New Iberia, an exper'
fenced accountant, to audit the
School Board accounts for the
past four years. Mr.. Boyle be-
gan this work Saturday and is
making very fair progress. Ow-
ing to the large amount of labor
involved it is hardly probable
that any report can be submitted
by Dec. 19, the date fixed for the
next Board meeting.

CHRISTMAS ORATORIO.

Rev. Father Teurlings, pastor
of St. Johns Catholic church,
who has been so industriously
at work for the past month or
so, arranging for the presenta-
ton of a Christmas Oratorio.
reports fine progress in every
detail of the sacred play and
has fixed on Thursday, Dec. 20,
as the date for presenting the
oratorio. The reverend Father
left yesterday for New Orleans
to rent costumes, etc., for use
in the representation of the
text in tableaux. The subject
is the birth of Christ, and all
the events connected with it
will be illustrated by living tab
leaux and can not fail to excite
most intense and general inter
est. The patriarchs and proph-
cts typefy the longing of the
ancients for the promised Mes
siah and form a striking feature
of the presentation; the Arch
angel appearing to Mary; the
stable at Bethlehem; the Shep-
herds in the field and at the Crib;
the Angels singing GLORY to
God in the brightest, peace and
good will to men,, the wonder
fully brilliant star, and the ar
rival of the three holy kings. pre-.
senting their gifts and adora-
tion, all will be wildly portrayed
in living tableaux and with all
striking stage effects.
The choir and orchestra COM
posed of local talent will be assist
ed by several artists from New
Orleans. Father Teurlings is in
deed most highly gratified over
the splendid progress made and
the unbounded enthusiasm dis
played by all in the rehearsals.
The parts are all thoroughly in
hand and every participant
vies in the determination to pre-
sent the grandest sacred play
ever witnessed in Lafayette.
Rev. Father Lambert of New
Orleans has been secured to
take charge of the stage effects
and his long experience in mat
ters of this kind insures a rep
resentation of the highest order.
It is admitted that the Jefferson
Theatre will not contain all who
will attend and 50 the oratorio
will be given twice if this can
be arranged.
