than spray Of cosmetic water after
the tub bath at the close Of tiresome
day. A little aromatic water dabbled
on the face and neck will freshen one
up wonderfully and often will pre-

very detrimental to beauty.
The business woman and the pro.
fessional woman. whose daylight
hours are spent in office or school or
studio, will find 1t an excellent plan
to keep a bottle of toilet water handy
and two or three times during the
day rub little over the temples and
on the back of the neck and on the
hands. A little Of the fragrant water
massaged into the scalp will some
times have magical effect when the
head feels heavy and the wits dull.
Some Of the best Of the purchased
waters are violet, lavender, orange
and elder flower, but the mixtures for
home preparation possess a charm
for the woman who likes to be indi.
vidual in her toilet accessories, and
the combination Of the different in.
gradients brings out some very dainty
odors.
One Of the very delightful toilet
waters and one which is really valu.
able for It's tonic effect, is made from
simple garden herbs. II these herbs
can be procured in the fresh state the
results will be more satisfactory, but
II not, the dried ones will answer.

lavender flowers. threequarters OF
an ounce each of the fresh tops OF
thyme rosemary, rue, sage and mint;
one dram each Of calamus. nutmegs,
cloves and cinnamon, all Of which

be strained through filter paper
An excellent violet water can be
made by simply emptying an ounce
bottle Of the toilet extract into
pint Of the best alcohol and shaking
the mixture till It is well blended. The
same process. using any other scent,
will answer the purpose, and lilac,
crabapple and heliotrope are all de-
sirable
Heliotrope water is made from one.
half pint Of orange-fower water, four
drains of coarsely powdered vanilla

civ oil 0p o1r H.
the same amount Of oil of cassia, and
one quart Of spirits of wine. Let

one and one-half fluid ounces of oil
Of lavender. one-half ounce oil Of
rosemary. one ounce oil Of lemon.
twenty drops oil of cinnamon and one
gallon alcohol. Mix we'll and bottle
for use.
These are all good formulas and
will prove satisfactory no matter

Patsy.-You will find that man.
cases of badness are due to the fac,
that the pores OF the scalp are flllet
with foreign matter which effectually
clogs them and prevents the hair from
pushing through. The hair folliclee
may not be destroyed at all. and may
be ready to start growth Of hair
II the clogged condition could be re-
moved and the hair given q chance
to grow. Sometimes there are tiny.
and almost Invisible plugs of dead
skin. and when they are removed with
a suitable tonic, the hair grows In q
seemingly marvellous manner. It is
really very simple, but is not generally
understood
Madge and Ruth.-The hands are
rather slow to yield to the influence
Of a building cream. but II you will
use the lilac paste regularly at night
and occasionally soak the hands In
warm olive oil for twenty minutes
you can bring back the youthful ap.
pearance again and greatly improve
the texture of the skin az we'll. The
lilac paste Is prepared especially for
the hands and 10 very agreeable to
use.
Jonah-Baldnes is frequently caus.
ed by the pores Of the scalp becoming
clogged. and this not only causes the
hair to lose its vitality and fall out.
but also effectually prevents the new
hairs from pushing their way through
to the surface. A tonic which cleanses
the pores and stimulates the action
Of the hair follicles would be likely to
start healthy growth Of hair. even ON
a perfectly bald head. The roots Of
the hair are contained In the scalp,
and are always ready to grow new
hair II we will but give nature half
q chance. Oily tonics only serve to
clog the pores and are not useful a.

Florence.-The intense heat used in
the drying process is quite likely re-
sponsible for the condition OF your
hair. The hair should always be rub.
