A Week with My Hair
:. Lima Cavaleri, the Most Famous Living B

TT is Monday, and I note that my
hair does not respond readily to
the brush; that ii lies lifeless I'M
der my fingers; that instead Of being
a live, bushy, glowing mass. it has
diminished to wisp scarcely larger
than my two fingers. 1t Is as though
some witch in a rage had plucked it,
hair by hair, from my head as slept.
With this lifeless condition of the
hair | have always found two CORE
spending conditions OF the scalp.
The scalp is hot and dry Also, the
brushing reveals dandruff-light, fine
and profusc.

part my hair. and, dipping a small
brush the size OF an ordinary tooth
brush into the water. rub the parting
vigorously. part 1t again, and rub
that parting. and the next, and the
next, scrubbing it. as you say in this
country, strenuously with the brush
dipped in soapy water.
When this has been done ! empty
the bowl, and in second water, in
which the other half Of the cake OF
soap Is dissolved, wash the hair
again, but this time rub the scalp,
not with the brush, but with my
fingers. Then again and again and
again, until the water IL az clean as
when 1t runs from the faucet, I rinse
the hair
Now comes the problem OF drying
It, Not by any artificial process. The
hair that is dried In the hot funnel
becomes brittle and cracks. II It is
dried by draughts OF cold air its
owner contracts neuralgia. II should
be dried first by brisk towellIng.
