married. 1 heard of this through
my cousin, though this girl and
1 had been corresponding up to
the time of her marriage. Do you
think she cared for me more than
as a friend? l would like to hear
from her again. Would it be wrong
to send her a letter?
UNDECIDED"
There is no use of crying over
spilled milk or wracking your
brains trying to find out at this
late date whether the girl cared Tor
you or not. You were too slow.
The other man got ahead of you.
and the girl has now been married
for a couple of years. Why start
a correspondence with another
mans wife? Her husband may
object, and there is nothing to
be gained.
The next time you're interested
in a girl don't let so much grass
grow under your feet. Speak up
before some other chap takes
her to the altar. This answer is
a warning to what a correSpon-
dent of mine calls those slow
freight lovers"

successful wave may be done now
on hair that at one time would
be considered quite hopeless, such
as the overbleached or poorly dyed
hair.
There are a number of hair dyes
being used now that will not in
jure the hair even when a perma-
nent is given over it. All of the
reliable shops are careful to use
only a good safe dye, but the
trouble may arise when one uses
a different mixture of dyes.
These dyes all have their own
special formula, and while they
may be perfectly safe in them
selves, they may not be compatible
with the chemical contents of other
dyes. So if you have been in the
habit of changing from one dye
to another, be sure to tell the op-
orator just what you have used.
You may have my Method of
RecOnditiOning the Hair, and also
the Hair Dye Method, if you wish.
There is no charge for either, but

nine pupils in my class and we
would like to surprise our class

S2.2O. What could we buy for this
amount of money?
"GRADUATE."
Do you mean that the amount
that is to be your gift-budget is to
be divided in half, for two gifts,
or is one person both your class
teacher and the principal? If this
amount is for one gift, you might
give a purse or a book or a port

is to be divided, think that the
best plan would be for you to buy
one or two nice white linen hand
kerchiefs for each. These are al.

some preliminary treatment.
This is an excellent idea when
the hair is in need of special re-
conditioning.
But the healthy, normal hair
does not need anything but the
average care, and a permanent
may be given any time the hair
is thoroughly clean.
A shampoo is always the first
step in all permanents, as you
know.
When the hair is dry and
neglected, it really does need some
preparation before the permanent,
and the careful operator will sug-
geSt such preparation. Do not
feel you may ignore this advice
and have the same good results
in your permanent.
You may be sure the hair
dressers are sincere in this advice
as they are always anxious to do
the permanent whenever they
have the opportunity, if the hair
is in good condition.
There have been such improve
ments made In the methods

DARIS is full of American buy

the new millinery, and here's what
they are finding, and bringing
back to copy for us. Brims are
wider in front, and trimmings con-
tinue. Ribbons, feathers and flow
ers are used, but not in great pro-
fusion. Feathers are sometimes
supplanted by feathery ornaments
of straw, and these occasionally
are used in drapey effect, off the
side or down the back. Wells are
used generally. Many Of them
hang down the back in the man
ner of the Second Empire. Off

to be in favor. Soon we will have
