Park Review

The Big Wonder Show, with George P. Mruphy, started off the second lap of the burlesque season at the Park theatre, now running on a different schedule. being shown in Bridgeport Tuesday and Wednesday with daily matineeS. During the lapce, three of the circuit attractions missed Bridge port. This weeks show is a good one.
 George P. Murphy, first gained the favor of burlesque goers when he originated his "hot dog character with Barney Gerard's Follies, some season back. He used the character for few moments in the first act, and then went into a new line, and furnished some mighty good, comedy. the best bit being a telephone booth skit. that was a riot.
 To close the second act. a real bur lesque is offered, the Gold Diggers,'' ,'' under the title of the Dough Dig gers It might be Lilies ct the Ffeld'' just as easily, but it is good, and keeps cleaner than either of the two plays to which it hands the ''razz." Mile Babette assists mater tally throughout the presentation, and practices the art of the vamp on papa in the Dough Diggers with telling effect. But who couldn't vamp a man with a figure like hers, espec- tally with those pale green tights and the gown, 'she nearly had on," to was vamped before she said word
 nhe show was strong on scenic dis play, costumes, comedy, and singing. A male trio, Frank Martin and the Hunter brothers, furnished the most cnJoya bie part of the entertainment while Nettie Wilson and Olive DeCov- eny also vocalized singly and to- gether, to good effect. There was practically no dancing in the show not a single real "hoofer" being put on display. Some of the choristers showed a lot of pep, and at least a few were mighty good looking. One little girl, the fourth from the left by showing little more life, could be the outstanding girl if the stage were full

CARE OF THE HAIR.

If the woman who wants to inn prove her hair will make herself little routine and follow it out, she cannot fail to notice a remarkaole difference inthe heath insthca ana 6ere eeIu' is simple list of things to be done which will not take much time and Whlch will improve the hair enormously.
 First of all, give your hair the proper sort of shampoo. The first part of the treatment is to rub the scalp with hot crude oil. olive oil or sulphur ointment. Next day you do do the shampooing. But before you shampoo braid the hair into many thin, tight braids, run your hand backwards over these to bring up the ends and clip off all the ends and little from the bottom of the hair. This is an absolute cure for split ends. Then shampoo, using soap three or four times. and rinsing again and again until you have rinsed out \ every particle of soap.
 When possible. dry the hair in the sun and massage the scalp gently after the hair is dry. Use hair tonic.
 The scalp should be shampooed once every three weeks, with the oil treatment the day before if the hair is poor in quality or If there is dand- ruff Every other shampoo time that is every six weeks - braid the hair and clip the ends, as I have sus- gested above.
 At night, when you take your hair down. massage the scalp with the fin ger tips If you need it use hair tonic every other day. I will gladly send you will write for it.
 eyenteen-As your face is full and -your nose short. you should aim to get length of lines in the coiffure- Do not bring the hair out much on the sides of the head as this will broaden the face, but mass much of it as you can. over the top of the head and s snug it well in over the temples and down over the tops of the ears. This does not mean that you should not j have .he hair softened-by curling or huffing it out. by keeping it loosely combed with a coarse toothed comb as nothing is so harsh and ugly as hair tightly drawn over the scalp. Fluff khe hair as usual. but snug 1t 6 against the sides of head and keep 1t -ss lose as possible over the top. Ar range the coil at the back, well toward the top and in the form of an oval.
 1 J. PA mucilage made from gum tragacanth or from quince seeds, will keep the hair in curl The hair is made moist with this and the curls are formed and tied into shape while the hair dries; after which the hair is combed and the particles of dried gum, shaken from the curls. It more easily handled when making curls from short ha1r, than when the hair is longer.
