dress so that it will look like new.

Guilty will be with the shirring. or
course, you will not be able to iron
the latter, so you will have to
straighten it by pulling it with the
fingers. If you wash it in gaso-

much. and will in this case prove
more satisfactory. You a pur-
chase the gasoline at a garage,
and after you have used 1t can
let 1t settle, drain of the dirty part
and bottle the rest for future use.
To wash the dress properly you will
need three vessels of gasoline. After

the process in the second vessel AMI

Treatment for Oily Hair

Kindly give me a remedy for oily hair.
l shampoo my hair every week, but
about three days after s~hampooing it be-
comes Just as oily again. Thanking you
In advance, ! remain very truly yours,
o. a.
Under no condition should you wash
your hair more frequently than once
every three weeks. The excessive OIL
mess is probably the result of en-
larged pores and gives warning that
the scalp should be treated gently.
You will find a sun bath a great
help. Sit in the sun every day as
long as you possibly can with the
hair hanging. Keep spreading 1t
apart so hat the air may circulate
through all parts. Avoid the use of
a stiff brush and under no circum-
stances wear a rat, as it will heat the
scalp and increase the condition you
are trying to cure. II the hair be-
comes too oily between the shampoos
rub 1t and the scalp gently with a
Turkish towel. This will absorb q
great lea of the oil. See If tar soap
will not agree with your hair. Make
a good lather of it for the shampoo
and be sure to take all the soap out
with a thorough rinsing and close the
pores by a final rinsing with cold
water. Dry the hair in the sun and
air.
The following tonic rubbed on the
scalp every day will assist in keep
ing it dry and will stimulate the
growth of the hair: Bay rum, foul
ounces; tincture Of cantharides, two
drains.
Go without your hat as much as
possible. This will give the sun and
air a chance to do their work.

THe ROAD To

only after bathing the condition
points to failure to rinse the body
thoroughly and free the pores of all
the soap. This is the general cause
of this annoyance, SO don't fear that
you and Jul sister have contracted
any skin disease. If I were you l
would rinse the body in clear water
instead of in the water in which you
have been bathing. Avoid soaps OF
the alkaline variety.
Salt is excellent as an addition to
the bath. Besides toning the skin 1t
soothes the nerves and invigorates
the whole system. The perfumed va
riety that comes for bathing purposes
is particularly delightful.
If after taking these precautions
the condition still continues. write
again and I will recommend some
other remedies. / feel confident that
you will be entirely relieved. If you
have not already done so adopt a
good stiff bath brush as a bathing ac-
cessory. This will open the pores and
do a great deal toward making the
bath a success.
