Owing to the fact that the young
countrymen of France, under the
spreading influence of the cities, are
becoming more particular as to the
appearance of the girls they walk
out" with. peasant girls are becoming
less and less willing to sell their rich
tresses to hair dealers. At the great

dealers present than ever before. The
supply of hair is failing and prices
ranged from $3.50 to s1.S5 a pound.
