A. Charming Talk with Pretty Helen Ely
Determines character by hair arrangement.
Arrange- your tresses carelessly.
Bo careful of tlio colors you wear.
By MAUDE MILLER.
"Yes, I have auburn hair In ftJct, It's
very nearly red. And for that very rea
son I havq to take great care' ot It!"
Thus spoke Miss Helen Ely of "Tho
Qlrla of the Great White Way" company,
decidedly as she lookc-d out at me 'from
under her auburn lashes. .
"This. Is the very opportunity I havo
been longing for. I havealway "wanted
to talk about hair, and, as mine Is ;ed
hair, perhaps I know more about the
enro of It than I do about brown or yel
low. The right kind ot hair first. Of
course, we must havo a standard of some
kind to go by. Well, the right kind f
hair Is clean, healthy and characteristic.
And this brings mo to the time-worn dis
cussion of how often should the hair be
washed. Let mo settle It this way It all
depends upon the temperament. Do you
.think this is begging the questldn?
Really, It Isn't. Just stop and think how
very often you haVo left more importi-it
things than a hair shampoo to this self
same temperament, and they generally
come out all right don't they? Well,
leave the matter of a hair shampoo to
your temperament. Depend upon It to
cry out and let you know whenever the
hair- Is ready, and then there will never
be a stated time when the 'thing must be
done, and things will be happier ill
around.
"And now for tho healthy hair. Healthy
I hair must havo air baths. It Bhould bo
allowed to hang free and unconflned, tho
life-giving air passing through It, so that
each separate hair will .positively crlnklo
with good will. Then the scalp must bo
attended to, for it Is tho soil for the
hair, Just as the earth 1b soil for tho
flowers. Good hair never grows on a
dry, unhealthy scalp, juBt as flowers
never bloom on an arid soil. The best
way to keep the scalp hoalthy. la to. stimu
late t'ho blbotl to.a6ttoh.by massaging tho
scalp ' with tho finger.' tips immediately
after the hair has"-been -brushed thor
oughly for fifteen ot 'twenty mllutoa. A
scalp where tho blood ls allowed to flow
freely will novcr bo bothered with dan
druff, falling hair or any of the other
unpleasant scalp' afflictions. ' Never use
hair tonics on tho hair, and, above all,
don't use perfume. Perfume brings gray
hair and takes away alt the pretty lustra
"As for character, look around in tho
theater at tho different girls and see if
you can't dotermlno character by their
hair arrungeme'nt. Remember, you glrln
with auburn hair, arrange, your treses
carelessly There Is a way of piling" It
up loose that .will bring out all tho copper
tints, whllo a tight arrangement meant
nothing but Just plain red. Bo careful
of tho colors you wear near your hair,
too. Black, white and green are the bcBt,
Whllo brown, yellow nnd orange are
splendid, If one's complexion Is except
tlonally good.
i love ren liair myself. I've never
been sorry that I've beon blessed with It,
but I do give It a great deal of care, and
I wish every one else would, too,"

had the happy Idcfa. that bats might be
employed in a war of extermination
against mosquitoes. He determined to
try It, There was a field of battle all
ready for the contest; It consisted of the
vast marshes surrounding somo 900 acres
of stagnant water, called, Mitchell's lake,
near San Antonio. The air over theso
marshes hummed with the trumpets or
countless hosts of mosquitoes.
A single bat, Dr. Campbell had dis
covered, could cat CO) mosquitoes In
twenty-four hours. But' that would be
like drawing a bucket of water from-the
Atlantic ocean In an effort to dry up
the sea. What was needed -was a verit
able grand army of bats. This army,
once collected, would have to be induced
to camp on the shore of tho lake, and
shelter' would have to bo provided for It.
Dr. Campbell had studied . bats In tho
caverns which they are accustomed to
inhabit, and he made a shrewd guess as
to the kind of home that would suit
them and then constructed a model bat'

for, its full worth
In ' the story of
America and Its
striigglo with tho
British king.
Bear in mind a
few dates. O n
January 1, 1776,
the American flag was first raised to the
breeze over Washington's headquarters
at Cambridge; the noxt day. January 2,
Paine gave the colonials his bugle call
In "Common Sensed, on March 17 tho
British evacuated lloitou, and on July 4
the 'old Liberty Bell sounded forth the
tidings of the great Declaration
Now, tho flag needed power the power
of earnest' men the power given, . the
red rbats must get out of Boston, and
Washington' victory at' tho "Hub" would
Inspire the Declaration ot Independence,
Now, again, It was Pnlno'a pamphlet
that furnished the power, thut enabled
Washington to .force the evacuation of
Boston, thut furnished tho courage out
of which was born the announcement of
the "Glorious Fourth."
In "Common Benso" Paine urged the
Americans' .'to-resolve, then lind there, to
be free. Reconciliation, he told them,
was hopeless. It was tltelr high and
solemn-duty, 'without further debate or
delay, to take their placo among tho na
tions of the world, and to pledge their
all to the carrying out of their resolution.
We are Informod that It was difficult
for the printers, with the clumsy presses
of the time, to bring out cop!ea of Palne'a
mebsago fast enough to meet tho demand
for it More than 100,000 copies were
speedily sold, and it carried conviction
wherever It went. All fear und irresolu
tion 'vn'n1h,cd; and' tho patriot heart wai
fired .with . ttio determination that, ell
months later, 'was to result in the event'
which was to Jnuku tho Fourth of Jul)
forever famous n the annals of. tin
human race.
As citizens of tho Great . Republic, ant
as sharers lt its glory renown, we can
not bo too 'grateful to tho- author o(
"Common Sense." It did us a servlct

Grandma's recipe of Sage Te3

Almoet everyone know that Sage Tea
and Sulphur, properly compounded
brings back the .natural color and lustre
to the hair when faded, streaked or gray,
also ends 'dandruff, itching scalp and
tons, falling hair. Years ago the on)y
wayjtp get this mixture was to make It
at home, which is musay and trouble
some. Nowadays, by asking at any drug
store ?or "Wyeth'a Sage, and Sulphur
Hair- Remedy,'' you will get . large bot

tO cents. .
Don't stay, iprayl Tr-y HI No one
can possibly tell that you darkened your
hair, as it does it so naturally and,
evonjy. You dampen a sponge or aoft
brush with It and. draw this through youx
hair, taking, one small strand at a time;
by morning the gray hale disappears, and
after another application or. two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick And
glossy .Advertisement.
