beautiful, glossy, silky hair. do by all
means get rid of dandruff, for it will
starve your hair and ruin it if you
don't.
1t doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it but. The only sure
way to get rid of dandruff is to dis
solve it, then you destroy it entirely.
To do this, get about four ounces of
ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at
night when retiring; use enough to
moisten the scalp and rub it in gently
with the finger tips.
BY morning, most If not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will completely
dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of it
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop, and
your hair will look and feel a hundred
times better. You can get liquid ar
yon at any drug store. 1t is inexpen-
sive and four ounces is all you Will
need, no matter how much dandruff
you have. This simple remedy never
fails.-Adv.

Pan Roast Oysters-Select fine, firm
oysters, clean and drain from their
liquor. Put them in a stewpan over
a rather hot fire, stirring with a fork
to keep them from sticking to the pan.
Season with salt. pepper and a good
tablespoon of butter to a pint of oys-
ters. If you feel rich add two table
spoons of butter. Pour over small
pieces of toast. If there is not enough
liquid to moisten the toast put a cou-
pie of tablespoons of oyster liquor in
the pan and heat. and then pour over
the toast. The one thing that must
not be forgotten is that the oysters
must be taken from the pan as soon
as they plump and they begin to curl
on the edges. If they are allowed to
cook longer the digestibility is de-
sttoyed.
Raw Oysters-In serving raw oys-

The newest use of the color is to
build wraps of it. Women are taking
lingering side glances at wraps for
pleasant weather, for they feel that
soon it will be time to abandon the

The dressmakers have put out all

pleasure seekers, and those who stay

pathetic in the way people in cold

1t is difficult for the world to get
away from the shades of red. The
average woman is afraid of scarlet,
runs from geranium, looks askance
at lacquer red, but she is not afraid
of henna, of terra Gotta, of brick.
THESE are the tones that she fancies
she can wear.
Now and then, as the epochs inter-
lock each other, the dressmakers
bring back the ancient tones and give
them to the public as a novelty. Henna
is as old as the dancers of India, terra
Gotta was born in the earlier strivings
! of Italy for color; brick red must
have been worn by the Egyptians.
These are the shades that were taken
from pottery, from the artificial prod
ucts made by man to build mems
homes and adorn them.
g Centuries ago men did what the
Javanese do now-took the dyes for
their apparel from the earth around
them. The Javanese depend upon ma

Peruvians. the Aztecs and the Egyp-
