BEAUTY CHATS
Hair Hints.

A hair specialist gives the following
seven hints to men who want to avoid
badness. The advice is equally good for
a woman.
One, wash and sterilize combs and
brushes once a week. Two, avoid In
fections from other people. Principally
this means use no comb or brush on
your scalp but your own, let no one else
use your own, and when in a barber
shop oe sure the implements used on
you are antiseptically clean.
Three, shampoo the scalp once Week.
and four, massage the scalp every Gay.
This you can do by using the nnger UPS
just hard enough so the scalp feels sum-
ulated. Five, rub oil into the scalp be-
fore shampooing. Six, use a good hair
tonic now and then, and seven, II the
hair is falling, hunt up doctor at once
and see about violet ray treatments.
Those who are fortunte enough to
live where the sun Is fairly warm
through the Winter can have sun baths
throughout the year. Otherwise enough
sunlight has to be absorbed during the
warm months to last. Drying hair in
the sun after 1t has been washed Is as
good as violet ray treatment; in fact is
a violet ray treatment, since the ma
chine merely gives the health rays OF
the sun.
The rays do not come through glass
though special glass has been invented
recently which claims to let these rays
through. The machines are made so a
current of electricity passes through
mercury, which produces mercury vapor
which throws off the ultra violet rays
The patient taking treatments sits un-
der one of these lamps, 10 to 20 inches
away from it. and the time limit Is
about three minutes at first, up TO ~
minutes, when he is used to 1t.
