FLUFFY HAIR On of the most aggravating things about having odly hair Is that the only way to correct such a condition Is by using still more oil on the scalp, and the result Is sticky looking hair that lays flat against the scalp and that cannot be dressed daintily. A great many women think that the only way to cure an oily scalp Is to shampoo ferquently." to wash out the oil. The frequent washing does make the hair fluffy for a few days, but In the end it only makes the condition worse. If you have dandruff and an oily scalp, use a great deal of oil as a massage, do not wash the hair more than once In three weeks, and keep the hair fluffy by dry shampoos. This, you see, is the way to keep the ccalp oiled and the hair dry. There are two things that can be used for a dry shampoo. One Is powdered orris. This is delightful to use because it does not cling to the scalp as talcum powder does, and because a little bit of it goes a long way also because It lends a faint fragrance to the hair. It costs a little to purchase, but is not really expensive. Another thing which I consider quite as good, costs practically nothing. This is plftfn cornmeal, the coarser the better. Powdered orris should be dusted Into the hair from a sifter top can and brushed out.. But cornmeal can be poured over the head by the handful, vigorously shaken through and then shaken and brushed out in a very short time. . Some years ago there was rather a fad for cornmeal as a dry shampoo, but lately the market has been fairly flooded with expensive shampoo powders which. I am told, sell very well. Brunette You probably missed the Issue in which the reply to your letter was printed. I would not. use any of the preparations you mention. You cart bleach the lan by using cucumbers, rubbing the juice of this vegetable into the skin and allowing it to dry on the face for a half hour. Remove it by washing in warm water. Lemon juice is a mild bleach and so is peroxide of hydrogen. Do not use any of these remedies oftener than once a day, as they neutralize the secretions of the skin.

A very bad tunnel came along, and of course he came to my side to put up the window for me all so simple, you know. Again his hand touched mine, and then he spoke. I smiled and thanked him, but shook my head at bis language. Thank goodness we both understood French, for five minutes afterwards we were standing, crouched at the Fame window, talking to each other about the wonders of the night and Mniling Into each others eyes as though we had known each other for centuries. His name is Ettore Ettore Imperata and I am head over heels in love no, surely that can't be, for I am an engaged girl, but, oh, how I shudder at the thought of him. And strangest r.f all is that I don't love my far away Jack any less nay every bit as much, and in the same way as before. But it seems to be an entirely different sort of thing to this emotion of mine for Ettore. I wish I could explain it to myself. At this moment his note is in my hands his voice in my ears and his presence in my heart! How long we would have stayed at Parents of Weak, Ailing Children Will be Interested in This Letter A mother writes: "My little girl was weak, puny and tired al lthe lime, did not want to do anything. Vinol was recommended it built up her strength and made her healthy, so now she romps and plays like other children, and is robust and rosy." The reason Vinol is so successful in such cases is because it contains the very elements needed to create red corpuscles in the blood, quicken the circulation, increase the appetite and soon strength and vitality is imparted to every part of the body. Your druggist sells Vinol, therefore do not accept any substitute. FAMILY WASHINGS Called for and Delivered Rate, 11 cents per pound. The Excel Laundry 1020 S.

The jar of the train completely aroused my mother. I think Ettore deliberately pressed me to him. I struggled free and pointed into the compartment where mother was rubbing the sleep and shock from her eyes, placed my finger on my lips, to entreat his silence, then walked back to my place just as guilelessly as though I had stepped out for an instant to see what had happened to the train. I explained that everything was all right, and before long mother was dozing off again. Some one in the compartment switched the shade over the electric light above (7

Ettore was waiting for me and begged me to come down to his compartment, where his friends were, and although I felt like a criminal, I followed him. His friends turned out to be three hilarious young students, dark-eyed as he, and in maddest mood. They all had bottles of chlantl and offered me sips from them in turn. I did have the most glorious time and they wooed me with their eyes every bit as much as Ettore did. (To be continued.) Heart Problems Dear Mrs. Thompson: Is it neces sary for a lady to thank a gentleman when he gets her ice cream? If so. when is the proper time to thank him We all know that it is only human nature for a man and a woman to make over each other, even if they are not engaged. I would not go with a man I could not love a little. I have let my friend love me and he has asked me time and again to kiss him. It has been a temptation but I have resisted. I am of an affectionate disposition and it is hard not to return his love. Would he thing less of me if I would kiss him and love him in my natural way? I am anxious to win this man's love, but do not want to show it until the right time comes, I am twenty-seven years old. LONESOME WIDOW. Always thank a gentleman for Ice cream.. It is a good time when you get up to leave. You are old enough to let your own heart and your own Judgment settle your problem. It seems to me the man ought to ask to marry you sinee he Is so eager for your kisses. I can not say what will make him think more or less of you, but it seems to me that if you ae natural and do nothing you consider wrong, he will admire you just as much or more. Never worry aDout wnat you nave aone. simply profit where you think you have made a mistake. Respect your self and the man will havo respect for you.

A Timely Suggestion

RICHMOND'S DAYLIGHT STORE

In these days of unsettled conditions it is well in making your purchases to be certain of your store; sure of its honesty and integrity, and sure of the quality of merchandise sold. While we are not prophets, we question the possibility of good Furs being sold for less than present prices; rather, there is now a shortage of dependable Furs, due to the unsettled furriers' strike, which tends to stabilize prices and make good furs so much harder to get later.

A SWEETHEART AT THIRTY The Story of a Woman's Transformation BY MARION RUBINCAM : ,

VIOLET HAS HER. WAY Synopsis of Preceding Chapters The Haines family live in the small village of Henly Falls Jim and Es ther, and Aunt Enid, Jim's sister, con sidered a hopeless old maid, now she has passed her 35th birthday. There are three children Laura, 21, James, 19, and Violet the vivacious, not quite 18. Aunt Enid wakes up suddenly to her terribly old appearance; and Violet, tired of the farm life, declares she wants to go to college. Chapter 7. Violet must get away from all this, I decided. It would be evil to allow that wonderful girl to grow up and spend her life in the surroundings she had been brought up in. From the adjoining kitchen came low voices, Violet's and James'. I fancied they were talking over the events of the evening but as the door was closed, I could get only a murmur Often they studied together, but this evening the murmur of talk was more continuous than usual. "What do you suppose they're doin'?" Esther asked fretfully, nodding towards the door. She stole a glance at her husband as she spoke; I could see she did not want to disturb him, or arouse once more the anger of the early evening. "They're only studying," I answered promptly. "James is most likely help ing VI with her work." "Or Vi helpin' James," Esther answered, anxious to disagree In some way. "I notice she does he helpin' she's much quicker than him. He's all Haines, I guess." This was spoken with another look at her husband absorbed behind the newspaper. Esther, in common with many women, blamed the faults of the children on her husband's heredity; their virtues she attributed to her own family's influence. But Jim went on reading, and if he heard, he gave no sigh. "Violet is much quicker at grasping things," I agreed with Esther. "But James is the one who digs, I have noticed that. She will understand a new lesson much sooner, but if it's anything that requires long effort, It's James that does it." Violet was quick at French, for instance. She loved to talk it; and her teacher said her pronunciation was excellent. James, on the other hald, said it made him feel foolish when he spoke it, and his accent, as I know now, was quite dreadful. Violet shone in English and literature and history; all these appealed to her love of stories and Tomance. James was slow In these, but he held the honors in Latin, which he said "is a scientific sort of lar -uage you have to build up a sentence rule by rule like a brick wall." And James was good at mathematics, where Vi was weak. Between them, they stood near the top of their classes. The murmur of talk ceased, and the two children came into the room, James took his cap from the hatrack on the wall. "I'm going over to Dwyer's after Laura," he said. "It's too late for her to walk home alone, and Charlie isn't home today." Esther nodded, and for the first time that evening, she looked pleased with her son. James left the house and the air of tension relaxed at once. The storm centre had passed, temporarily at least.

IND - MONDAY, OCT. 23, 1920.

"Well, got your lessons?" Jim spoke kindly, lowering his paper and taking off his glasses to look at bis daughter. "Yes, father," Violet answered sweet ly. . She took a comb from her hair and fluffed It lightly around her face, a pretty girlish gesture that somehow pleased Jim. She stood before us, so slim, so full of vivacity, her figure all lines of flowing grace, in spite of her badly made waist and skirt. What infinite possibilities were in the girl, I thought! She must be gotten away, she must be allowed to develop, away from our narrow little circle. She must not sink into the sort of life I had sunk into. With her budding woman's intuition for finding the other person's weak moment, Violet suddenly knew that this was the time to repeat her re quest. She came over to her father, and sat down on the arm of his chair. "You are going to let me go to col lege, aren't you?" she coaxed, a siim little hand patting his bristly hair. "Honest I would, Vi. If I had the money," Jim answered, his tone this time regretful. "But it wouldn't cost much $500, perhaps, or $1,000, and I could have at least two years. I wouldn't mind so much if I could go even a year," VI said, her tones almost irresistible "But the money," Esther spoke up "If it wasn't for the barn the money I got from Grandpa Haines I used to build the new barn and to buy the reaper " "But you didn't use mine," I said suddenly. "Dad left his money even ly between us. I haven't even spent the interest." "But that's yours," Esther was all honesty. "You may need that some time that s against your old age." "I'll risk my old age," I said sharply. "Jim, there's $3,000 anyway, isnt there?" Jim nodded. "All right, it's Vi's to go to college on, for as long a time as it will last her." Violet gave a little gasp of surprise and delight, I would have given her 10 times as much, if I had had it. It wasn't much, but it was enough to save the situation. Violet had her way. She was to get her way in other things, too, as it turned out. Tomorrow An Unkind Remark. Lieut. Noble, of Boston Decorated by Polish (By Associated Press) WARSAW, Oct. 25.
