WEAR OWN TRESSES
RETURN TO SIMPLIFIED FORM OF
DRESSING THE HAIR.
Women of Fashion Are Discarding
Rats and Puffs Good Appear
ance Depends Largely on
the Care Bestowed.
What can be prettier or more allur
ing than the simplified way of wear
ing the hair recently adopted by wom
en of fashion?
Rats and puffs, scented or other
wise, hare been entirely discarded,
and the woman appears with her hair
parted neatly in the middle and
drawn loosely back to form a chignon,
where a few false curls may be in
terpolated. It is a subject for congratulation
that we again see in its natural set
ting the lovely brow of the American
woman.
To wear all sorts of bejeweled combs
and hair ornaments is, howeTer, still
"correct," and now is just the time to
search grandmother's old horsehair
trunk for the jewelry of by-gone days.
Avoid strong soaps, alkalis such as
soda and ammonia, hair tonics of
which you are not sure, and too much
hot water. These all dry up natural
oil and make the hair harsh, dry and
given to falling.
. Depend on regular brushing of the
hair rather than on tonics. Ten min
utes' stiff brushing twice a day will
do wonders for thinning hair.
Keep the hair absolutely clean. This
may be assisted by a dry shampoo if
a wet one cannot be given frequently.
For a dry shampoo powder the hair
and scalp well and brush until every
particle of powder is gone.
Hair should always be thoroughly
dried, as the mineling of water with
natural oil causes fermentation, which
means dandruff and falling locks.
Give the hair plenty of light and
air. but do not expose it to the hot
rays of the sun for long at a time. It
bleaches the hair and often blisters
the scalp, drying up the natural oil.
So long as the scalp moves freely
over the skull there is hope for the
bald head.
Be particular not to use the brushes
and combs of another, and see that
you do not use your o' n when in an
insanitary condition. One reasen for
the baldness of men is dne to their
carelessness in this respect.
Do not burn your hair, twist it Inte
tortuous knots, strain it back from
the temples or wear it always in tha
same coil.
SUIT FOR CHILD.
Child's suit of cotton ottoman.
The skirt is plain. The pretty
jacket with basque attached, is orna
mented below the waist with buttons
and loops of cord.
The collar and cuffe are of em
broidered batiste.
FOR SMALL WOMEN TO WEAR.
Some Things She Should Avoid, and
Some She Positively Must In
clude in Wardrobe.
Xo matter how small she is, a
woman may always have a good
figure.
If she has not one to begin with,
she should economize in some other
part of her wardrobe, and call in the
services of a good corsetiere.
If she cannot be impressive, she
can at least be neat and good to
look at.
Use only straight up and down lines
in the development of your gar
ments. Whatever you do, allow nothing
which cuts the figure horizontally.
The princess model, which is so
much a part of the present mode,
should be a cause of rejoicing among
small women.
Do not year shirt-waists and skirts
of contrasting materials.
This cuts the figure in half, and
iessens greatly the effect of height.
Dispense with belts, if possible, and
if not, make them as narrow as pos
sible, and always of the same mate
rial as the frock.
Coats may be almost any length
but that most usual of all, the three
quarter. This is usually fatal.
Straight coat seams may be
trimmed, but neTer the lower edge.
A trimming there would cat ti
figure in two.
White Veils.
White is a favorite in veils, and
lace leads in modishness. real lace be
ing, of course, the most desirable,
says Vogue. Put it is very expensive,
and the imitations as a rule look
cheap and do not wear well. By those
w ho wish to be in the fashion for a
moderate cost white silk Brussels net
is substituted for lace with excellent
effect. Its appearance is very smart
indeed. The upper edge need not be
finished at all; the lower edge and
the ends are whipped with heavy mer
cerized floss, drawn through very
easily so that it does not pucker or
draw. This style veil is, of coarse,
pinned in close at the top only, and is
left hanging free about the shoulder
The meanest people on earth are
those who know how to conceal their
selfishness and envy.
