dignity, reliability and experience.
This, to any business woman, should
be invaluable. In social life and In
the home gray hair can be made to
look charming and wonderfully at
tractive.
I have often heard it said that
life la what we make it. In my opin
ion the hair, also, is what we make
It. If you do not like your gray hair
and so neglect it or abuse it with
concoctions which usually do harm
and, at the best, can do no pernia
nent good. Or you say you are get
ting old and it doesn't matter how
you look.
it aoes matter. It Is not an ex
travagance to go to a nalr dresser
once a week and have your hair
waved. The resultant effect will,
with care, last throughout the Inter
venlng days from one week to the
next and will so Improve your ap
pearance that you will feel well re
paid.
Then you must study a really be
coming style of dressing your hair
Gray hair should never be brushed
down nor drawn back in smooth,
Btralght lines. . Such a Btyle is too
severe and trying for even the most
perrect reatures. It gives to the
face an aged, harsh look. Neither
does gray hair look well, especially
upon an elderly person, when it Is
so loosely arranged as to give an un
tidy, rakish, I-want-to-Iook-young
sort of an appearance. There is i
happy medium.
Study the pleasing modes of hair
dressing seen In shop windows. Ex
periment a little. Then buy a net
The nets are especially easy to ad
just ana cost dui little, or course,
even they require a little practice to
put on without disarranging the hair,
but any hairdresser will give you a
practical demonstration of the best
method of handling them as well as
tne larger, triangular-shaped nets
which many people prefer.
The Becret of wearing a net is not
to draw it down too tight Nets are
not intended to be drawn tight. On
the contrary, they should rest very
loose over the hair and should be
caught lightly, not tightly, here and
there with Invisible hair-pins. Many
hair dressers give the ends of each
pin a decided bend to prevent them
from slipping out of the loose meshes
of the net. By this means the pins
form a sort of hook and do not have
to be forced so far into the colls of
hair as to make it look stiff and art I

Everyone dreads gray hair, yet 1
have never met but one person who
refused to admit that gray hair was
beautiful and always becoming on
other people. It Is a poor rule that
does not work both ways. If it is
becoming to other people It is be
coming, or will be becoming to you
if you make it so. It will not be be
coming if you do not wear it with
good grace. So do not fret and wor
ry and cultivate wrinkles and a bad
tecmper.
Deauty must smile and try to for-

That Is the surest and best method I
know for retarding the transforma

other means at her disposal. Any
thing that will promote her own
good health and stimulate her scalp
Is sure to have its effect. But beau
ty doctors agree that it is just as
natural for some people to get gray
hair as it is for some to have light
hair and others dark hair.
But everyone admires the beauty
of any young woman who appears
at a fancy-dress party in the style of
the early 70s with her hair powdered
and elaborately arranged. And any
young face framed In gray hair, if
the hair Is arranged in an equally
becoming manner, can be Just as fas

BRIDGEPORT GETS 1
NKW SWITCH YARDS
BIrdgeport, the chief contender
with Alliance for Burlington con
structlon In this part of the state, has
at least received some encourage
ment. The News-Blade of that city.
in its last issue, tells of new switch
ing yards to be built there, the blue
prints for whic'i s" ow thirty-one
tracks, and draw.- therefrom some
comforting conclusions. The article
follows:
"At least it looks as if the long
contemplated activity In lonl rail
road circles is about to begin. An
official of the Burlington was hre
this week in conference with the city
council, and county commissioners.
Preparations are being made foi put
ting in the extensive switching yards
southeast eof the depot, the plans for
which have been under way for some
time. A certain public road wlcb
traverses the present track at whic'i
is known as the Hunt crossing will
be vocated, and the railroad company
has purchased an additional right of
way, which goes practically to the
Woolsey crossing. The blue prints
call for something like 31 switching
tracks that will be built here, also
large coal chutes and other needed
Improvements. The double-tracking
to the new Burlington bridge is now
under way, which when completed
will allow trains which when com
will allow the trains from the Casper
line to come in on their own track.
This news, coming so soon upon
the resumption of private ownership
of the railroads, ueads one to believe
real business is meant this time, and
talk of the line down the North
Platte from Bridgeport is again re
vived. It Is reported upon good au
thorlty that the construction of that
road is only a matter of a short time.
This is the most substantial proof
we have had hat the Burlington cer
tainly considers the making of this
one of their most important points,
and then Just watch Bridgeport forge
ahead by the proverbial leaps and
bounds."
