Sift on the dru shampoo

q wave every week. Is there anything
I can do to make it.not SO oily and to
make it grow in just little bit thick
er? 20 Once in while use peroxide
on my hair to make it look lighter.
Does this hurt a permanent? When
should I apply the peroxide-before
shampoo my hair or afterward?
SAPPHIRE.
Answer: Cd If the hair becomes too
oily you may give it a dry shampoo
between times. To make this mix to-
gether one ounce of powdered orris
root and one ounce of cornmeal. If
your hair Is excessively oily you may
also add a little powdered camphor.
This mixture should be sufficient for
several dry shampoos. Put it into
box with perforated top and shake
Q little Of it along the partings and on
the hair. Rub the powder into the
hair and let it remain on for a few
minutes. Then brush down each part
In the hair with long, firm, even
stroke. This will brush the powder
through the hair and take all the dust
and grease with 1t. Take care to brush
every bit OF the powder out and as a
finishing touch polish each strand of
hair with piece of old silk.
Be sure to massage the scalp well
every day and also to brush your hair,

and also to encourage its growth the
following tonic may be applied to the
scalp once or twice a week: Ole-half
ounce bicarbonate of soda, two ounces
cologne water, one dram boric acid, one
dram tincture of cantharides, one dram
tincture of cinchona, 10 ounces bay
rum. Shake well before applying and
when using be sure to moisten the en-
tire scalp. CD Never use undiluted
peroxide on the hair as this will make
the hair lifeless, dull and brittle. It
may brighten it temporarily, but has a
disastrous effect on the hair itself. II
your hair is light the following rinse
may be safely used after the shampoo
to bring out its golden lights: Two

Peter grinned. He knew that this
was Mrs. KilIy's little joke. He knew
that she knew that he could no more
climb that tree than he could fly. So
Peter changed the subject. Does Killy
often sit on those eggs?" he asked.
Certainly" replied Mrs. Kiliy, "Killy

and willing to do his share. He is sit

Peter pretended not to hear this. I
think Killy is very handsome" said ne.
"Of course, he is handsome!" replied
Mrs. Killy promptly. Il don't know OF
any one flandsomer. And you know there
is the old saying that Handsome is as
handsome does Why Killy would no
more think of staying away from home
any longer than necessary to get enough
to eat than he would of deserving me al
together I can always depend on
Killy. Yes, sir, can always depend
on him. I haven't much use for these
mates that will not do their fair share
of the work of bringing up a family"
Peter looked bit sheepish, for you
know, Peter leaves all the family cares
to little Mrs. Peter. So once more he
changed the subject. (Which branch
of the Hawk family do you belong to,
Mrs. Killy?" he inquired.
1.-The Falcon branch" replied Mrs.
Killy promptly, and it was plain to see
that she was very, very proud of it.
I'VE are the smallest of the Falcons"
Then that means that you are own
cousins to Killer the Duck Hawk, does
it not?" said Peter.
Mrs. Killy nodded eyes" said she,
and there was still pride in her voice.
Did you ever see such a wonderful
flyer as Killer the Duck Hawk? The
Falson branch of the family are the
masters of the air.
