rresses Poets Wrote OF.

Hair always has been subject of
absorbing interest and its arrange

Poets would have been hereft of one
of their best subjects had short hair
of women become the fashion that II
once threatened to be.
Viewed from the standpoint of the
practical and the sensible, long hair
hasn't ghost Of chance against
short tresses for women. But unfor-
tunately the beautiful and the indlvid-
ual usually win over the merely prac-
tical when 1t comes to matter of the
personal adornment of women, and the
fact remains that many of those who
hastily cut 'off their tresses have re-
pented at their leisure.

Health Is infectious.

This is from a HindOo source:
Everything is infectious in this
world, good or bad. If your body be
in a certain state of tension, it will
be liable to produce the same tension
in others. If you are strong and
healthy, those that live near you will
be liable to become strong and
healthy; but If you are sick and weak
those around you will be liable to be-
come the same. This vibration will
be, as 1t were, conveyed to another
body. Indeed, in the case of one man
trying to heal another, the first idea Is
simply transferring his own health to
the other. This is the primitive sort
of healing. Consciously, or uncon-
sciously, health can be transmitted.
The very strong man, living with the
very weak man, will make him little
stronger, whether he knows 1t or not.
When consciously done, II becomes
quicker and better in its action"
