ELkS SEEK DECORATIONS.
Detroit Lodge Plans to Have Coun-
Gil Beautify City for Reunion.

Detroit Lodge Plans to Have Coun-
Gil Beauty City for Reunion.
At a conference held Monday be-
tween Mayor Breitmeyer and COM
mittee from the Detroit Lodge Of
Elks' headed by Chairman +. S. Bur-
CESS of the reunion committee the
question of the city expanding an APP
propriate amount for the purpose of
Identification was taken up, says the
Detroit Journal The mayor express
ed himself as being In sympathy with
the plan of decoration suggested by
the reunion committee and felt that
there would be no doubt of the city
doing the proper thing in the matter
of preparations for greeting the big
throng coming here i'm July.
The plan of decorating the city in
honor of the Elks' reunion, which has
already been suggested to the common
council, contemplates the erection of
a beautiful belvedere across the
Woodward avenue entrance to Cadil-
lac square, which can be used not
once but as many times as the city
may be favored by visit of large
bodies. The plan does not require the
use of any distinguishing emblems, and
would be a work of art.
When placed across the entrance
to Cadillac square the purpose is to
shut off from the view of visitors the
squalid front of the ill-kept buildings
lining the north part of the square.
The plan also involves the investi-
ture of the streets running from Cam
pus Martius with giant white mono
liths which can be used again and
again for like demonstrations.

CARE OF WHITE HAIR.
How 10 Treat Il and Preserve Its Color
BY Simple Methods,


No kind of hair is prettier than the
white. but II is something OF task TO
keep white hair really white
Dusty brushes soon make white hair
look rather muddy The woman whose
hair IL white needs to wash combs and
brushes every three or four days.
White hair is more brittle than other
kinds. so II must be handled gently
no Juggling and no washes that are
too strong; also when being dried care
must be taken not TO use too much
heat
Though some white haired women
use ordinary shampoo mixtures with
impunlty, they do so at their peril,
for these shampoos are apt 10 make
white hair ludicrously streaky. The
finest bath for il is made by mixing
the whites Of two eggs lightly with a
tablespoonful Of warm water. This
egg shampoo may be rubbed into the
scalp. and the hair should be carefully
parted so that the scalp may be
reached. The long hair may be thor
oughly washed with il also. Then the
scalp and hair must be rinsed thor
oughly with lukewarm water After
this rinse II In cold water The best
water for white hair is that from the
spring or that which has been filtered
The white haired woman should be-
ware Of tonics for the hair and scalp.
Women with dark locks may safely
use these, but not she of the snowy
tresses. With great care In the appll-
cation crude oil may be used once In
awhile. or the scalp may be rubbed
gently with little white vaseine.
Any grease, however, must be kept of
the long hair; otherwise dust will be
very quickly collected, and this will
make the hair lose Its luster
shampooing white hair with lemon
is excellent treatment. Put half the
cut lemon in thin muslin cloth and
rub II over the scalp, first thoroughly
wetting the scalp A few drops of
bluing in the rinsing water will give
the much admired silyery CLINT TO white
hair
