and consequent scratching of the scalp There are also germs and mi crobes in salt water which can. of course, take up their abode in the hair. The very best treatment for hair at the seashore is first to use the wet sponge as directed and after coming from the water to take the 5uiee of a lemon and pour over it cupful of boiling water When sufficiently cool saturate the head with it and dry with warm towels In ten minutes rinse off with warm water.
 Shampoo the hair frequently, using the yolk of an egg well beaten with a cupful Of hot water and twenty drops of the spirits of rosemary. Rub this
 into the scalp and after ten minutes
 rinse with warm water and dry. When inconvenient to shampoo brush
 the hair well and use the following scalp wash:
 Extract Of witch hazel, one pint; eau de cologne. eight ounces; chloro- form, three drams.
 This treatment will cleanse and make
 the hair soft. glossy and fluffy.
 In some cases the scalp becomes ex- | tremely dry and the hair wiry and
 brittle when exposed to the salt air
 It is then necessary to use a little oil
 to replace the natural oil.
 While the sun has an III effect upon wet hair (salt water) it is very bene- dcial when the hair is dry. so while at
 the seashore a daily sun bath will be
 good Take off the cap shake out the
 hair and let it float in the breeze, run ming the fingers through so the hair
 roots may be benefited by the air. sun and ventilation. This treatment if
 persevered in will be found to work wonders and incidentally mean saw
 ing of time and money. for professional
 treatment will be entirely unnecessary upon the return home.

EEEE will doubtless be as
 much ingenuity expended in
 devising differing versions of
 the basque as there was in the development of the blouse. for the basque of 1880 has arrived. and from all indications 1t proposes to remain. We know sufficient about the autumn styles now to predict with some der gres of surety.
 Arrival of the 7asque.
 with the arrival Of the basque the tunfc will probably disa@pear We have had all sorts. ranging from the short ballet tunic. the three tiered eff feet. the simulated and the long Rus sian tunic. This last tunlc in it's p1afted version is used with the basque. with a sash and a stunning bow in the back It is fair to assume that ere long the tunic will haveS ceased to be ia tunic and will have returned to the length of long. full gathered or plait- ed skirt.

Care of Hair at Seashore


IN speaking on hair culture recently
 an authority remarked:
 .It is a singular fact. but most peo- ple even those who are accustomed to give the hair every attention other wise seem to be absolutely careless of their locks while staying at the sea shore. while. as a matter of fact more destruction can be wrought fn q month there than can be remedied in six. sup posing the hair is neglected-n
 It is a well known fact that in the autumn the hair falls out more freely than at any other season of the years |conseQuently one should really give the hair greater attention for some weeks previously and so prevent wholesale shedding.
 Before entering the surf 1t is d good plan to place a wet sponge at the back of the neck and let the water fall down the spine. This is to eQualfze the tenn peratIlre- If one plunges head first into the water there will be a sensation of dizziness and fullness in the head. This shock affects the scalp and inci- dentaIly the hair. of course
 Many women have no idea Of the damage done to the hair by allowing it to dry by sitting in the sun upon the beach The salt wet hair and the suns rays combined have a decidedly injurious effect upon the co1oring mat ter of the hair. It fades blond hair into streaks of dirty yellow and dark brown or black hair into burnt red dish color. Also 1t renders the hair bushy. harsh and brittle. which, by the way. some women interpret as an un- usual growth.

THREATEN 10 BAR
 AMERICAN BUYERS
Paris Dressnakers Angry Over What They Regard as Mean Devices
 to Save Money.

PARIS, April 15.--The big dress designing outfits of this city contem- plate barring American buyers from their halls because of the refusal of the American buyers to take the de- signs offered by the French dress makers and designers. The Ameri- cans are becoming more and more in dependent and demand that the Amer ican desires shall be catered to by the designers or they will refuse to buy.
 The French artists are also oppos- ed to the ccmmerc al methods of the Americans, who buy collectively and the model is used not only in New York but in every large American city, thus depriving the manufacturers here of large profits.
 The dressmakers here say that if the Americans know what they want why don't they make 1t and not come to Paris to steal ideas or get at re duced figures new models for duplica-- tion in America.
