ANY Woman Can
Have Beautiful Hair

(From French Beauty Monthly
NO woman should use water upon
her hair oftener than once in two
MONTHS says NJ. Fourier, the noted
French scientist: DRY powder only
should be used. Moisture causes the
hair to lose its color and in time be-
come thin.
ANY woman desiring abundant.
lustrous hair should use a dry sham
poo every two or three days. Mix four
ounces of powdered orriS root with
four punches of therox. Sprinkle
about a tablespoonful of this mixture
upon the head; then brush the powder
thoroughly through the hair. This
will keep it light and fluffy, and beau
tifuIly lustrous. You will soon see
new hair starting to grow This
treatment is the only thing that l am
sure will produce growth of hair.
while plain orris root is used as
dry shampoo by many women, still,
no such results can be obtained as by
using the formula 1 have given"

EVENING CHAT
BY RUTH CAMERON.

Today's letter is especially addressed
to shy people
Yesterday I gave some of the wise
and helpful suggestions for overcoming
shyness, which my readers sent me in
response to letter, which I had pub
lished. from a shy girl who wanted to
be told how to overcome her weakness.
Their wisdom and helpfulness over
flowed a single days space, so I quote
some more today.
II read your article in the paper last
evening, relative to a letter poor shy
girl had written you writes one of my
correspondents, land could not help
thinking how we'll it suited my own
case several years ago. used to envy
the girls who chatted away so freely and
unconsclously in company, while hard
ly dared to open my mouth. L remain
ed like this until one day came across
an article which I thought surely had
been written for me. 1t simply said
that if girl found herself shy and
backward in company, the way to over
come it was to go right ahead and
speak out force herself, at any cost, to
say something and try to be sociab1e
I thought I would try just for an ex-
pertinent and found it very hard at first
1t seemed as though another person
not myself, were speaking. I kept up
the battle quite bravely though until
to my surprise, I found it became quite
the natural thing. and words and jokes
came without effort.
"A few years ago was distressingly
shy and self-conscious," writes another
conqueror. After considerable thought
about the matter 1 concluded that
would consider that everyone met was
lonesome and needed entertaining, and
l solved the problem. I attended the
theater and lectures as often as posi-
BILE, and also read and digested the
news of the daily papers, mean things
worth knowing and talking about-and
in this way / had a number of subjects
at my command which I could intelli-
gently talk about"

good sense that 1 must quote it bod

Just what made the difference in me.
I'm the first place get away from
home-not to stay, you know-just for
a visit. The sense of what people ex-
pect US to be literally paralyzes our
efforts to appear anything else. So get
away where nobody has any preconceiV
ed opinions about you.
Then do as Miss Cameron says, put
on your prettiest dress, spend an hour
over your hair if necessary and start
out for conquest-not of other people,
but of yourself Pick out the least for
midable person in the room to practice
on-a young girl, perhaps shy like your
self, or middle-aged. lonely old maid.
Then talk. Try to interest her. You'll
find it amazingly easy since she isn't
used to attention. Get her talking if
