Hair dyeing has be-
come one Of the beauty
arts. There are special.
lists who do nothing else.
This business of
Transforming a gray
head to a brown one or
a drab head to auburn
or chestnut requires
skill. The agents used
are chemicals-except
henna, which is an
herb-an nd chemicals
have a way Of fighting
each other.
That is by no
woman who has been
using one dye should
change to another. She
may find that she is
pouring troubles on her
head, Her hair may
turn taupe or purple;
it may become Streaked.
If the dye used is salts
factory, she should stick
to it faithfully.
Some coloring agents
must be applied quickly.
That is why the home
job isn't always success
full. The amateur dyer
may not be able to dis
tribute the coloring
matter evenly. Anyhow,
it is usually a messy
chore. The work should
be done by q profess
ional.
Let no woman forget
that the gray hairs re-
appear close to the
scalp. A touch.up is
necessary ever six weeks

Movement of Fan Delays
Starting of Auto in Cold
Weather.
BY FREDERICK C. RUSSELL.

Have you heard of the motorist who
ordered q spare steering wheel with
his new car because his wife lost her
voice?
One thing that delays the warming
up process Of the average automobile
engine is the fan. If we could stop
the fan from rotating during this
warm-up period, just as we check the
flow Of water to the radiator, the en-
gine would operate more efficiently.
There is, however, q simple way to
get around this problem. It calls for
shielding the manifold stove of the
climatic control Of the carburetor with
some asbestos looming. In this way
the engine more quickly receives a
warmer mixture. In many cases such
a remedy also checks vapor lock, since
the asbestos also shields against ex-
cessive heat when the exhaust mani
fold reaches top heat.
Ailments From Our Cars.

discuss matters Of personal health, al
though I once was asked by q woman
what would suggest for Nmbering

their cars having much to do with

I discovered that was in the habit
OF twisting my hand when placing it
against the back of the seat as slid
behind the wheel. It made me won-
der how many other aches and pains
are directly due to habits in handling
or in riding in the car.
Now comes a friend to announce
that his appendix operation was quite
unnecessary. He had suffered moth
