No longer does milady resort to the
dye pot when her brown or black or
golden locks begin to be f1ecked with
white. Just SOW gray locks are de-
cidedly fashionable, and it Is a good
thing, for of d truth they are most
becoming to the great majority of
faces. giving a kindly expression to the
eyes and softening the lines caused by
encroaehing years.
Madame has begun to realize that
since she was a young girl with the
blush of youth on her cheek she has
not looked better than with her crown
of silver. But like golden hair, gray
and white locks need constant care,
especially in the summer time. Many
silyer-haired women have their tresses
shampooed once a week, or at least
once In every ten days. This keeps
1t bright and glossy. AS soon as dust
and dirt settle on the scalp the hair
loses its sheen and takes on a dull,
muddy look, far from becoming.
Gray hair should be washed just as
is dark hair, save that a little bluing
should be added to the rinsing water.
Be sure to use just a drop of bluing,
blush tinge. Once in two weeks is
often enough, If the dust is brushed
from the hair every night with a good,
clean brust.
If one does not want to give a reg
ular shampoo so frequently. cover the
half of q lemon with a thin rag and
rub It yer the scalp, letting 1t remain
q half hour. Rinse with hot water and

SCENTED HAIRPINS.

Scented hairpins are the latest nov
city. The knoll at the top of the hair
pin is fitted with a spring, which, at
the slightest touch, releases the minia-
ture spray of perfume. The idea is al
ways to insure absolutely fresh per-
fume. for, however fine a scent may be,
it is apt to become stale after being ex-
posed to the air for several hours. 1t
is quite easy for a woman to pat her
hair or to replace q hairpin, n this is
all that is necessary to release the per-
fume. Hairpins are made in gold for
blondes, tortoise shell for brown hair,
dark amber for auburn haired women
and silver for gray locks.

HINT FOR AN EVENING GOWN.

of considerable social prestige may not
be duplicated in real worth. for

is something suggestive for imitation in
its rich beauty. 1t was of pastel pink
Chiffon, embroidered with a wheat de-

similar to the chiffon, and all outlines
finished with real Venetian lace bands.
IT was made in the princess style, with

Neither piano nor organ should be
left open at night, OF habitually when
not in use.
The changes of temperature are very
hurtful to the tone of any instrument,
and especially the gathering of damp
ness, which not only interferes with
the tonal quality of the reeds and
strings, but is very likely to seriously
affect the works.
Pianos in particular should be kept In
as even a temperature as possible, since
they are much affected by alterations
of heat and cold, dryness and moisture;
If thus exposed they require very fire.
quent tuning, and are not satisfactory
in action or tone.
Care is equally desirable in regard
to other stringed instruments, the vio-
lin family, banjos, guitars and like.
All fine instruments should be habitu-
ally kept in cases lined with baize oil
flannel.
If a small linen bag filed with cam
phor is hung on a small nail on the
inside of the piano case 1t will prevent
moths from getting into the felt.

The DIsmsntled Room.

First thing to be don in the dis
mantled room is to sweep the floor to
get rid of the dust. Sweep ceilings and
walls and go all over the wallpaper,
bit by bit, with a piece of stale bread.
The painted woodwork must be wash
ed with soap and water and hen well
dried. The floor Is scrubbed with water
to which has been added a little liquid
ammonia. We must not forget to give
1t plenty OF elbow grease" and a good
drying.
To clean the windows begin with the
inside, dust the window ledge and other
woodwork round the glass and then
with a sponge (Which must be kept
specially for the purpose). wipe the
glass all over. Use warm water, to
which Is added a few drops of ammo
MIA. After wiping with the sponge lake
a wash leather, dip it In the water,
rinse 1t out tightly and go over the win
dow with 1t. then dry the glass with a
soft cloth and polish.
If possible choose a time Of day when
the sun is not shining on the window;
the part on which the sun shines with
most force will dry more quickly than
the rest. and will give to the glass q
streaky appearance.
An easy way to remove paint marks
from window panes Is to smear the
glass with turpentine. After leaving the
turpentine on a few minutes you will
find on rubbing that the paint will come
off easily.

Curling the Hair.
Dear Madame:
Kindly let me know, through your
valuable paper, II there isn't something
to make hair wavy. My hair is rather
stiff, and If l don't do 1t up In curriers'

dressy. Something that would not be
very expensive, will oblige,
DAILY READER.
The following recipe for a hair-curl-
ing lotion has helped many; Gum
arabic, one ounce; good moist sugar,
one-half ounce; pure hot water, hree-
quarters of a pint; alcohol, two fluid
ounces; bichloride OF mercury, six
grains: sal ammoniac, six grains. The
last two should be dissolved in the al
cohol before admixture. Lastly. add
enough water to make the whole meas
ure one pint. Perfume with a few
drops of cologne. Moisten the hair
with this fluid and put it in curriers'.
This fluid should be used sparingly and
not too often, as it is a strong solution.
An occasional use, however, is harm
less. There is nothing that will make
your, hair curl permanently. Have
the fluid mixed by your druggist.

Laying LinOIeum.


In laying linoleum on the floor of a
room care should be taken to eliminate
as much lacking as possible.
Around the edges of the room it
should be so cut as not to touch, that 1t
may have room In with to spread.
Constant treading upon 1t has an in
clination to widen it, and if it has not
room it will bulge out in spots over the
floor.
In selecting it is always best to pay
the difference in price and buy that
which has It's design im~prlntaArA1l the
way through, as that which has the
design only on the surface soon be-
comes unsightly.
Considering the length of time 1t will
lie on the floor before being renewed,
the inlaid quality will fall to produce
the usual eyesore that the surface de-
sign does.
The kitchen and laundry are the best
places for this floor covering, as 1t does
away with the drudgery Of scrubbing
floors. the linoleum being easily
mopped clean In a jiffy.
