Now that rats, rolls and multitudin-

with Fashions followers, there Is
hope that woman's hair may be saved.
That much damage has been done
we all know. Even those who have
been willfully blind will own that
their locks are not what they were
in the rat-less, switch-less days.
The hair that we have left is. per-
haps, oily. Then the best we can
do Is to give the scalp an egg sham
poo once a month and dry shampoo
half way between those dates. Care
must be taken to keep the medium

Woman's Hair Can Be
CIoriously Lustrous

(Prof. Mtron in Fashion Quarterly
Hair that lacks color and is faded
and lusterless is usually suffering from
too much washing OF the head. Moist
ure takes from the scalp oil that gives
life and nourishment to the hair roots;
when robbed of this oil the hairs
either fall out, split at the ends or be
come course and brittle.
ITO prevent hair from becoming
thin and faded, first stop washing the
head: second, use dry shampoo pow
der with tonic properties.
"An excellent shampoo powder Is
made by mixing four ounces OF amo-
tone with a half pound Of corn meal
Sift a tablespoonful Of this mixture
over the head, then brush through the
hair. II brushes out very easily. Do
this once a week and your hair will
take on new life and beauty. This
powder removes dust and dandrun
and leaves the hair light, fuzzy and
gloriously lustrous."

And the Story Book child is SO dlmpled
and sweet.

neat,
While its grammar is proper as proper

Though it's only toddler that comes to

How delightful to see how Dame For

On that marvellous being. the Story Book

When the Story Book Man thinks it's

Why, the Story Book Girl, she observes

How the love in his heart is beginning to

For they're now on the hundred-and-

And her brain is a-fiutter and his brain
