Of "smartness" in his work, his talk

destruction Of all economy, the bane Of
good housewifery and the source Of

HOW | MADE
MY HAIR GROW
Woman with Marvelously Beautiful Hair
Gives Simple Home Prescription Which
She Used With Most Remarkable Re
suits.

l was greatly troubled with dandruff and
falling hair. l tried many advertised hair
preparations and various prescriptions, but
they all signally failed; many of them
made my hair greasy so II was impossible
to comb it or do 1t up properly. l think
that many of the things L tried were posi-
lively Injurious and from my own exper-
fence l cannot too strongly caution you
against using preparations containing wood
alcohol and other poisonous substances. l
believe they in!ure the roots of the hair.
After my long list of failures l finally
found a simple prescription which l used
wi, most remarkable results and | can
unhesitatingly state that II Is beyond doubt
the most wonderful thing for the hair l
have ever seen. Many Of my friends have
also used 1t and obtained wonderful effects
thereform II not only is a powerful slim
ulant to the growth Of the hair and for re-
storing gray hair to its natural color, but IL
is equally good for removing dandruff, Civ
ing the hair life and brilliancy, etc, and
for the purpose OF keeping the scalp in
first-class condition. 1t also makes the
hair much easier to comb and arrange in
nice form. l have a friend who used IL
two months and during that time IL not
only stopped the falling OF his hair ana
wonderfully increased it's growth, but It
practically restored all OF his gray hair to
its natural color. You can obtain the in
gradients for making this wonderful prep
aration from almost any druggist. The
prescription is as follows:
Bay rum, 6 o.; Menthol crystal. one
half drachm; Lavona de Compose, 2 o.;
Io-kalon perfume, to 2 teaspoonfuls.
Apply night and morning; rub thor
oughly into the scalp.
GO 10 your druggists and ask for the
eight-ounce bottle. containing six ounces OF
Bay Kun, also one-half drachm OF MenthOl
crystal, and for a twO-Ounce bottle of La
vona de Compose. Mix the ingredients
yourself at your own home. Add the Men
thol crystal TO the Bay Rum and then pour
in the LavOna de Compose, and add the

to making little knlckknacks herself. These
she gave to the capable village women who
could make them better themselves. One
old woman received one of these worthless
little gifts accompanied by a greeting of
love. Holding the present UP scornfuliy,
she said: "Humph! More love than any
thing else!' Perhaps this remark and 9TH
ers like it reached the ears of the one-time
lady bountttul. The next Chr stmas she
gave no presents to the village people. She
explained to a friend that the people were
ungrateful, that Chr stmas was become a
sordid farce, and she should have nothing
more to do with it. Was tn woman right?
Had Christmas become sordid or had she?
Beware lest your condemnation Of Cnrlsl-
mas be a condemnation of yourself! If you
look upon Christmas through sordid eyes it
will appear sordid. If you are CONNER
cialized, your Christmas will be CONNER
cial.zed. If you are selfish, your giving
will be joyless. Joyless giving is a farce,
a hypocri,ical farce! You may part with
gifts-you won't give them.

Mr.. and Mrs. Malloy separated thirty-two

Merriment ON British ships.
On board a British man-o'-war the day is
observed with great merrlment and a con-
siderable slackening of naval discipline
at all other times so rigorous. Officers and
men mingle together. and hearty expires
sions of good will and Christmas greetings
resound from quartedeck to forecastle.
The day is begun at $3.50 a. M. with the
usual routine of scrubbing and securing,
followed by breakfast at s O'Clock. Quar-
tiers are sounded off at 8 precisely and all
the men fall in for inspection, as on sun
day, after which church is rugged and a
short service held.
Then comes the great ceremony Of the
day, when the captain and officers visit
the messes on the lower deck. The tables
are artistically decorated with flowers
paper. IL real ones are not obtainable-
and adorned with photographs and small
flags. The petty officers of the messes
and leading seamen stand at the heads
of the different messes holding plates
heaped with various delicacies. which they

shaking hands with them and wishing them
a merry Christmas and a happy New Year.
1t is. of course. impossible to take from all
the plates, but 1t is Christmas etiquette
for the officers to sample a dish at every
mess. A perfect babel OF voices fills the
deck-"Merry Christmas, sir; just take a
little of this. sir" or Try this, sir: real
Yorkshire pudding. sir" or my mother
sent tn s, sir, all the way from Devon. sir"
In the afternoon general leave is given,
and there are sports ashore. and boat races
with the crews of other ships. The hands
that stay aboard muse themselves by get
ting their photographs taken to send home.
The different messes are also photo
graphed in groups, also the foot ball teams
and cutters crews, a photograph Of each
kind always being given to the young
mildly in charge of the boats. Some of the
popular officers on some ships are
"chaired' around the lower deck, but usu-
ally this ceremony is sternly suppressed
now, as being very unpleasant for the Off
Ger himself, as well as too great a breach
Of discipline. Some commanders allow It,
however, but they belong to what is known
In the British navy as the popularity
