to be grave doubt of the final issue

tinents and cons, whether this pres

known as the Age Of Man or the
Age of Insects.
However. we are holding our own

Regarding False Hair

hair any good, but it will not hurt
II, so long as the false switch
doesn't heat the scalp.
OF course. II nature wanted YOU
TO have a yard OF so Of hair, she
would likely have allowed your
present stock to grow that long,
but if the scalp is not healthy
enough to support so much, then it
is better to pile only the real and
small amount on top OF It.
Pads and such things, of course,
are harmful-and. quite as bad, out
of date. The present couture keeps
the hair closely to the head, with
out any addition in the way of
false locks, 2Zcept to make a thick
knot at the back Of the head, or to
add a cluster Of curls in some artis-
tic fashion.
If you wear false hair, try to
have the switch or puffs made from
your own eombings. Then you will
be sure that the lustre, quality and
color are the same as the growing
locks Besides, this way costs less
than half what a switch Of real hair
would cost.
And keep the switch scrupulously
clean You cannot wash it as much
as you can your own hair. for there
is no supply Of oil for this. Keep
it well brushed, sometimes adding
a drop or two OF fine oil to the
brush to keep up the lustre Of the
switch.
