San Francisco is waking up to the
fact that Cleanliness is next to god
illness" At least so the statistics at
the Lurline baths alone would show.
$4,000 people in all visiting them dur
ing the month of January The at
tendance continues to be large and
most enthusiastic, partially because
of the central locatio of the building
but even more for the spectators gal
lery, which has really proved the most
popular feature
EVERY afternoon and evening finds
the tanks well filed with lovers of the
pastime, the temperature of the water
proving more attractive at 20 degrees
than the icy plunge these winter days
would offer at the beach.
The principle is the same thing in
the long run, only it is steam heated
principle. For the water in the baths
is brought straight from the ocean,
and is in continual state of circula-
ton and change. filtering through the
tank, coming in one end and going out
the other in daily and hourly motion
The pump on the beach carries it into
the big filter at the baths, through
which il passes before ii finally reaches
the heater, and flows into the tank al
the deepest part heated TO the proper
degree. 1t is then forced out at the
lower end and continual wave OF
fresh water takes II place. the analy-
sis of which, passed on by Smith En-
cry, has been pronounced, because OF
the perfect filtering system. more sani-
tary than ocean water in its native

The Beautiful Hair
OF English Women
(Annie BLY, in n. Y. Graphic)

The long, abundant and glossy
tresses of English women are not due
to hair tonics and heroic shampooing-
There is a general belief over there
that the less water put on the hair, the
better it is; they say wetting takes
the life out" and leaves the hair dull,
brittle and colOrless.
English women with hair rich in
color, clean and wholesome-and
plenty of it-have told me they at
tribute it to dry shampOoing two or
three times a week They mix four
ounces of therox with four ounces of
orris root and sprinkle a tablespoonful
of this mixture on the head: then
brush the powder thoroughly through
the hair They thus also avoid the
danger of catching cold and the dis
comfort that accompanies washing,
rinsing and drying the hair.
This treatment keeps the hair light,
fluffy and lustrous, and Is the only
thing I know that will actually pro-
duce the growth of hair.
