Beauty Chats By Edna Kent Forbes

A. M. N.-Perhaps your first letter was answered by my confidential secretary while I was abroad. Which henna treatment do you wish The plain henna shampoo is made by combining one part powdered Egyp- tlian henna, with three parts pow dered castillo ss:ap and a small amount of this is used to cleanse the hair. It does not alter the color.
 What I have called the "extra henna shampoo is to color the gray hairs in a head beginning to turn gray. This consists of an ordinary shampoo, followed by an application of hot henna paste-powdered Egyp- tian henna-for three minutes. This co9ors the gray hairs only. The reg ular henna application makes the hair red-a good shade when it is we'll done. The hot henna. paste is left on from 15 minutes to two hours, depending on the shade wanted, the type of hair, etc.
 Most Interested Reader-I don't think a good cold cream will grow hair. Use a. bleaching cream to re- move the last summers sunburn-cu- cumber cream or cucumber juice, for instance. Peroxide cream might help too. Constant Reader-Are you toe stout? Thick ankles and thighs usually go with a body that is over weight. Reduction would help; SC would exercise.

Y. w, ESTABLISHES NEW BRANCH FOR
 COLORED WOMEN

An entirely new branch of the '. W. c. A. is about to be organized for colored women and girls. A colored secretary, Miss Dorothy c. Quinn, will begin her duties on Feb. l. While the actual organization is new, the idea dates back several years. A group of colored women have been deeply concerned with the needs of the young colored girls in the city, and with the few social or educa- tional influences open to them They have repeatedly asked the Y. w. C.. A. to assist them in organizing a branch A year ago last fall, Miss May Phillips investigated the situa- ton and made a survey Of the col ored population. She reported a pop ulation of over 5000 and recom- mended that some work be organized at once for them.
 The formal organization meeting of the new branch will be held at s o'clock Tuesday night, at the Park Street Congregational church. Mrs. CordeIia Winn, National Y w. c. A. Secretary for Colored Work, will out line organization methods after which bylaws will be adopted and com- mittee of management be elected.

The great question is not where to hang ones hat but what to hang upon it!
 In trying to find the answer to this vital millinery question Miss Manhat- tan has run the gamut of everything everything. you might say, hanging it on her hat, to one side. And she has come to the conclusion that anything is all right just so long as it's long enough.
 Here are some of the things she has tried and found good:

Two Lights and Five Hundred Dollars,

Il
At the special meeting of South Paris
Village Corporation Thursday evening
the sum of $500 was raised for the FIRE
department, to be placed In next years
assessment. This was done after John
). Brown OF the assessors explained that
be had already drawn orders for some
over $500 In excess Of the appropriation.
Under the other two articles it was
voted to place new street lights, one on
Pine Street where IL will light the dark
place between Miss Mason's residence
and the Congregational parsonage, and
the other on Maple Street. II was ex-
planned to the meeting that large num-
Der OF automobiles are frequently parked
10 the evening around Grange Hall on
Maple Street when there Ia something
going on there, and that there is lack
OF light for them. Il is understood that
he appropriation already made will
cover the cost OF these two lights for the
present year.
Clerk e. N. Haskell of the corporation
called the meeting 10 order, and Arthur
&. Forbes was moderator for the short
session which was held.
While on this matter the Democrat Is
impelled to remark that this meeting Is
An extreme illustration Of the way we
don't attend TO our civic duties. In
cluded in the attendance were the clerk
OF the village corporation, the three as
SCISSORS, the chief engineer, q newspaper
reporter, and one man who had q direct
personal interest in the location Of one
Of the lights asked for. How many Of
these seven men would have been there
II they had not had special reason Is
not a question that we are now concerned
with. or the other three who were nee
esssry to make q quorum, two had TO be
summoned from the highways and by
ways after the hour for the meeting was
past. To be sure, there was no election,
nor any vitality important business, nor
are we criticising the work of the meet
ing. But with regard to the importance
of the meeting, as the result OF it five
hundred dollars will be added to next
years tax, and two new lights are 10
Gated, which will become an annual fixed
charge on the corporation.
