A BoOKKEEpER WITH PROSPECTS.

My Dear Miss Doom:
bookkeeper. 1 do not make a very big
salary, but have a chance to go in BUSH
ness with my uncle later on. 1 love a
girl of 10, and see her very often. but
have not talked of marriage, as I think
1 do not make enough. L think she
loves me, for she has given up all other
young man. Please tell me what to do,
and l will be a thousand times obliged.
CLARENCE V.
If you think this girl loves you, and
you care for her. it is only fair to tell
her the exact situation. If she really
does care she will not mind waiting a
year or two You are very young to
think of marriage.

Why don't you try m~assaging the
scalp, that is one of the best things
l know of to induce the growth of the
hair. Brush your hair free of snarls
at night and massage by holding your
thumbs on your temples and going
over the scalp where the hair is thin

thing desired is a rotary movement

loosening the scalp and not the move

blood %tingling under your fingers. Then
brush the hair for ten or fifteen min
utes, taking great care that your brush
is clean and free from dust. This
should bring about an oily condition

Wash the hair with warm water and
pure olive oil soap, rinse well and dry
as quickly as possible. Don't use any
chemicals that might kill the natural
oil.
Dear Madame Alta:

A good tooth powder is made as
follows:
Precipitated chalk. four ounces.
Pulverized borax. two ounces.
Powdered myrrh, one ounce.
Pulverized orris. one ounce.
Mix thoroughly and sift through a
fine hair sieve or fine bottling cloth.

tablespoonfuls of butter in q pan over
the fire. Add a tablespoonful of flour,
stirring constantly; a sprig of finely cut
parsley, half a dozen mushrooms cut
small, half a pint of milk in which has
been added a dessertspoonful of clear
beef-juice. Simmer five minutes, then
add half a dozen hard boiled eggs. Cut
in slices. Serve hot. Season with half
a ~teaspoonful of salt and a s~altspoonful
of pepper.
Stewed Prunes-Wash the prunes
we'll, put in a kettle, just cover with
cold water and let stand all night. In
the morning put on the stove in the
same water. Boil until tender. Don't
stir or wash them. Set back on the
stove, where they will simmer until the
juice is a thick syrup and very little
of it,. Eat when cold with cream.
In caring for the refrigerator it will
need to be thoroughly cleaned, and if
the lining is not one of porcelain, but
metallic, it must be treated with white
enamel paint. First scrub the interior
with very hot water, rinse with hot
water and dry. Remove the refrigera-
tor from the corner, take out all dirt
from beneath n see that the drainage
pipe is perfectly clean. Half close the
door and burn a lamp inside. This
will dry the walls, and if any insect
should be inside they will be
killed. The next day give the inside
a light coating of white enamel paint.
In two days repeat the process. If the
outside wool is vanished and just a
triie dingy wash carefully when you
clean the outside and give a coating of
thin varnish. If it is hopelessly
scratched paint with some suitable in
terror paint.

BOTH HAVE LIGHT HAIR.

Dear Margery Doom;
I am a young girl of IS, with light
hair and blue eyes. 1 love a young
man Who is also light. Now, 1 have
always heard that light girls should
marry dark men and dark girls should
have light men. Do you think there is
any truth in this? Please let me
know, as 1 love this young man, but
not want to make any mistakes.
SALLIE N.
I think that you do not love this
man. If you did you would not worry
about such questions. Because you are
both light does not signify that you
are of the same type.

REGARDING APOLOGIES.

My Dear Miss Doom:
Wiz o kindly let me know through
your valuable column if a girl should
apologize to a fellow when he started
a quarrel. My friend says the girl
should give in, and 1 say she should
not, especially when the man was to
blame. Grille.
After a quarrel the n in fault
should apologize. A girl makes a mis-
take if she tries to renew friendship
with a man at whom h has been
justly angry. However, she should be
willing to meet him half way and 20
forgive readily, if she is sure that he is
sorry.

To have beautiful hands there is a
great deal more needed thar that they
be white mi we'll formed.
To be perfect the finger-nails must be
well kept, but not every woman knows
how to care for her nails, how to keep
them properly shaped and free from
hang-nails. Not a few are of the opin-
ion that to have the nails well cared
for a professional manicure must do
the work.. This is not at all necessary.
and the woman who cannot afford the
luxury of a manicure can learn to keep
her nails in perfect condition with the
help of a few simple tools.
One thing to be remembered is that
tht nails must not be shaped with a
mail clipper, as this makes them grow
coarse and heavy. After the hands
have been washed with warm water and
CASTLE soap, to free them from all soil
and soften the nails, they should be
shaped with a curved scissors which
comes for the purpose and which is
shown in the accompanying illuStra-
ton. After the nails have been shaped
the edges should be smoothed off with
a fine file.

The Word "Ogre."

Old fashioned etymologists used to
say that the word "ogre" commemorate
ed the sufferings of Europe during the
ninth and tenth centuries at the hands
of the ravaging "Oigours," or Huns.
This derivation, however, is now aban-
doned. "Ogre," which reached the
French language by way Of Italian and
Spanish, is really Orcus. the Latin hell,
afterward the god of the underworld.
In Romanesque folklore this god be-
came q shaggy, black, man devouring
monster, with a particular taste for
