not only takes less material, but offers
fewer difficulties to the amateur dress
maker. The very warm evening wrap
is no longer the necessity that it was
before the luxury of a closed motor car
was so general. A coat of velvet with
an interlining of thin woolen material
and lining of silk offers sufficient
warmth Metal cloth lined with velvet
with fur collar provides wrap that
most women would find cozy enough.

The addition of parsley to carrots
gives flavor that improves them very
much. The parsley should be chopped

until tender in boiling salted water.
Drain, then add three tablespoonfuls of
finely chopped parsley, two tablespoon
fuls OF butter, half a teaspoonful of
salt and little pepper. Mix carefully,
SO as not to break the slices of carrot.
Serve hot.

Too Strenuous Brushing.


Dear Miss Leeds: Can you advise one
OF your male readers? About two years
ago I commenced to brush my hair in
vigorous, systematic way. I noticed
the scalp seemed sore after brushing.
and once or twice the skin was broken,
My hair always grows we'll and quickly,
but at present 1t seems fine in one
place, as though 1t needed nourishment? ?
Do you think that it is right for the
scalp to be sore after brushing? use a
pair OF military brushes. Is there such a
thing as using them too vigorously2
MR.. J. B.
Answer-While brushing the hair is
very good thing for the hair and
scalp, am sorry to say that you have
been giving your hair too strenuous
brushing. For, while the brushing is
intended to stimulate the circulation of
blood through the scalp and to keep
the hair glossy and healthy, it should
not be strenuous enough to cause irri-
tatlon. Then. too, your brushes are
probably not pliable enough. The bris-
ties should be fairly long, so as to pene-
trate through the hair, but not harsh
or strong enough to injure the skin of
the scalp in any way. I notice that
most Of the mems hair brushes have
rather short briStleS and they seem to
their use gives scrubbing and rub
bing effect rather than the even brush
ing which stimulates the circulation.
Do not neglect to massage the scalp
with your flngertips, not merely rubbing
the surface, but moving the skin itself
backward and forward in circles. When
you brush your hair, go at it more
gently. II the brushes that you mention
are too short and harsh, would suggest
investing In new pair with more pill
able brtstles. To make up for the harsh
treatment that you have given your
scalp, use soothing salve two or three
times q week. Here Is useful one that
many Of my male readers have found
helpful In keeping their scalp in good
condition and thsir hair glossy and
healthy: One-half ounce spermaceti,
two ounces petroleum, two ounces castor
oil, one dram oil Of bergamot, 10 drops
oil of cloves, 20 drops oil Of cassia.
Melt the Spermaceti and add the oils
gradually In the order given. Place in a
jar and allow to cool without stirring
Apply little Of the salve to the scalp
with the fingertips and massage in
thoroughly. Brush the hair gently. Be-
fore washing your hair apply little
warm olive oil and leave on the hair
and scalp half an hour or so. Then
wash of. using a liquid tar soap, COCO
nut or olive oil shampoo liquid. Rinse
well and dry. LOIS LEEDS.

Appreciation of Pictures.

dealer many reproductions of famous

with large mounting mat. Three or
four pictures were put on the mat at

hung in the children's room to fa-
miliarize them with the pictures. Then
new pictures were hung and the old
