Thoughts
(By Theresia M. Skinner)
Put good in your mind and your
Thoughts will sow
The good where it is of most
need.
Put kindness where only hate
Might grow,
And let Love be the seed.

smile
Be a handclasp true,
And happiness will be yours
All the while
For the' best will be with you.

Beautiful Hair j
(By Mrs. E. Baker, 2627-3 Ave)
Every woman would have
beautiful or at least good hair.
Good hair cannot be obtained
without a healthy scalp. There
are several steps leading to a
healthy scalp. If you will fol
low steps given in this column
:each week, you will be greatly
benefitted.
The scalp must be kept clean
by correct shampooing, but
first the scalp must be prepared
for shampooing. Part the hair
in very small parts as to ex
pose the scalp to view, then
with a rather fine toothed comb
lift or loosen the dandruff from
the scalp. "When the entire head
has been gone over in this maiv
ner, place the finger tips of
both hands firmly on the head.
Do not slide fingers about on.
surface of scalp, but hold very
firmly, and with a rotary move
ment, such as we would get
from an electric vibrator, go
over the entire head. Put em
phasis on the temple region and
back of the ears, because the
scalp feeders are thickest there.
This massaging brings up the
dandruff which was previously
loosened by the comb. If there
are any stubborn spots of dan
drufff which will not yield to
this treatment, ahinoinft spots
ferred.
In the next issue, I will give
you the second step—brushing
—which,too, should preeeed the
shampoo.
