VALUABLE INFORMATION CONCERNING THE CARE OF THE HAIR.

JL Girl's Happiest Honr—B«ipe tor lundrjing Shirts—The Blookt on the Cheek of Maidenhood—Mothers Should

Semember—How to 1«« a Corset.

The hair is the covering of the roof of **the home of thought and palace of the •oul." Where baldness, which sometimes occurs in quite young persons, is hereditary it is doubtful if anything can be done to prevent or remedy it. Avoid "restoratives" and other nostrums, and, as a rule, do not py pomatums or olb upon the bead. The thorough u«e of a moderately stiff brush •will greatly promote the health of the scalp and prevent the falling of the hair •without other application. The hair should be occasionally washed, and if there is

much

dandruff the yolk of an egg will be most efficient in removing it. Work the «gg with the fingers well into the hair, a little at a time, to bring it in contact with the scalp then wash it out thoroughly with water, and the hair will be beautifully clean and soft.

Avoid all shampooing liquids^ those used by barbers are strong potash solutions. They call it "Salts of Wormwood" and "Salts of Tartar," and use it without knowing its real nature. It is very effective in cleaning, but ruinous to the hair. If the falling of the hair is not prevented by thorough brushing some stimulating application may be made. Half an ounce of the tincture of cantharides added to a quart of bay rum will answer better than most "hair tonics." But the mode of dressing the hair must be controlled almost entirely by the fashion.

It will be considered by many of our lady readers a necessity to dress the hair In the fashion of the moment, but we should endeavor to counteract, by careful treatment, any injurious effects, such as overheating of the Bcalp, which produces dandruff, irritation and possible baldness. Whatever style is adopted during the day and evening the hair should be given the utmost freedom during the night. All cannot employ artists to direct thtvefforts of the hair dressing maid, but every one can see to it that simplicity and an appropriate ensemble are presented. Nothing is more unseemly than to see a noble, dignified face marred and its true beauty destroyed by some coquettish or frivolous arrangement of the hair wholly oat of keeping with the general bearing of the wearer.—Hall's Journal of Health.

A OirPn Happiest Hour.

Did you ever see a girl, or, what is better, a woman old enough to know what love means, preparing for her lover after a long absence?

Her first thought as she wakens is: This is the day he will come! And in a moment she is out of bod, aud scanning the heavens more anxiously than a sailor's wife. If fine she rejoices because the day is in harmony with her mood if stormy she serenely defies the weather, and tells herself that so brave and so ardent a lover as hers would go through fire and water and tornado and earthquake rather than fail of an appointment.

She (1 reuses from the skin and with a tender and scrupulous care, although common sense would tell her that only the outer garb could possibly be known or appreciated. She puts her hair a trifle lower or a trifle higher than usual she feels that never, never did it curl so badly or wave so stiffly, and she would really be provoked, but—he is coming.

And the dainty stockings, and the choice among the dainty boots, and the frilled skirts, and at last the pretty gown, and tho laces and the ornaments, aud the rose in the bosom or the little bunch of violets upon the corsage! And then the room where she will receive him! How she touches the drnpcrics into new folds, picks a withered loaf or two from the flower vases, moves a chair, a little table and easel, a bit of drapery that everything may do its best to honor the place where he will presently shine lis the center of all. And how anxiously the shades and tho curtains are lowered aud draped to just tho becoming light, until filially ho rings at the door, she takes one last furtive glance at herself and her surroundings, and then—the door opens, she has the top brick of the chimney, and the happiest hour of life is over!—Mrs. Frank Lesllo. ___________

Itoclpe for Laundrylng shirts. A laundress of wide experience writes that the doing,of that moat difficult thing of all in laundry work—the doing up shirt bosoms- may bo made highly successful by observing the following procedure: Enough cold starch to last several months may be made of one ounce of white laundry wax, two ounces of borax, one teacupful of water and three UM\cupfuls,of starch. The borax and wax are dissolved In water, sufficiently heated for the purpose, but not hot enough to scald the starch into this mix the pulverised starch after passing it through a flour sieve. In using take a teaspoonful of this prepared starch and dissolve in water that is not cold enough to prevent the wax from softening. Tho hot starch is made, not. very thick, and a teaspoonful is allowed to a shirt bosom, the hotter the liquid is the better.

Apply a tablespoonfulat a time, rubbing in well* before putting on more, and after the right side will take up no more apply to the under side. Unless the starch is well rubbed in the iron will stick and specks and blisters will appear. The hot starching is done first, the bosotn is allowed to dry and then the cold starching Is done by dipping the bosom in the liquid, -wringing out and rubbing slightly. After hour or so Iron, first nibbing the bosom carefully with a cloth wrong out in hot water to equalise the starch on the surface. A thin cloth Is to be laid over the bosora the first time the Iron Is passed over It, When thia is removed dampen the surface of the bosom a little and finally iron carefully until the finish is satisfactory. Let the outside cover of the ironing board be woolen cloth and the bosom wilt not stick toft. fh« Blown on the Ctw«k of Maidenhood.

There is an indescribable expression in the «y«-~every fin® observer knows i$— which distinguishes modest girl from a matron. Look tor it in tho eyes of our girl* today. It is missing so often it is replaced by another so unw*k*mes so worldly wise, so unpleasantly experteoeed (hat w« shrink with a mom of having lost the most precious thing in girlhood. It is not ,ur purpo* to prove here that the lax theatrical view of life Is largely wwponsdhk tor ti*te» hot only %oaak% by the way, how far it may be respooaible. Better, like the Puritan lady, to dm* the eyes when ti» ballet comes. Better a simpkt wrkma. unworldly ignorant* of andjWgp

isfxj'xsith crtoinnl saitjjesliona which 1# sow the fashion among as. It is to 1* feared that the very excellent parents who compose our "select circle*** have no more intelligent idea of the ftmu*e» n/ents affected, by the "set" with whom their sons and daughters disport tliettt* selves than they have of the entertain* merits of a factory holiday or a firemen* picnic.

A lady reared in the traditions of high birth and gentle training of a generation ago has a certain exquisite innocence herself like an ideal girl's, which prevents her from appreciating the, perils of her children. She who would have thought it amoral lapse tb allow a young man, without right,' to hold her hand she whose lips were never touched by man until she gave them to her plighted lover she who went to her husband as unmarred as an ideal in a dream does not readily perceive or accept the conditions of a lowered moral standard. Is it not enough to be a lady? Is not my girl the daughter of her mother? Head your girl's eyes, you lovely lady of the Brahmin birth, and sweet soul. Question her. She may return you the clear, heavenly look of the heart of your own high youth, and heaven bless her! Far be it from me to mutter and croak, as if a modest maid were an pxtinct curiosity. But, if she has paused from uadar your shelter and beyond your standards: if she has been what we call "gay if she has tossed a good deal in the foam of young people's frolics if she has had some mock of a chaperon or none at all if, in short, she has drifted on the current of existing social streams—question her, question her. —Elizabeth Stuart Phelps in Forum.

How to lace a Corset.

"If lace you must," said a handsome and smart actress to me, "use three sets of laces in your corsets, one starting at the top and ending two or three holes above the waist line of the corsets, to tie there the second starting at the lower edge of the corsets, extending up to two or three holes below the waist line of the corsets, to tie there the third lacing the space left between and tying just at the waist line. Then reducing the size of your waist—that is, pulling the middle cord—isn't going to drag you into a straight line above and below the waist. Also you will wear your corsets, even though tight, with more comfort. "There is a place—iin't there, dear doctors?—just about at the waist line, that I think God must have left, knowing that we would lace, kill or no kill, where pressure can come without tying our necessary and indispensable viscera into hard knots. By the suggested arrangement of cords we can reduce the size of the waist with less violent offense to heart and lungs and also without sacrificing entirely harmony of outline. Just make beauty and hygiene clasp hands practically every woman knows what I mean by practically—and we will rejoice more than the doctors. "Oh! Right here I might as well suggest elastic cord for the upper and lower strings and even for the one at the waist if you dare. You will thereby gain a suppleness in movement and pose which is worth striving for, but which we cannot all of us take off our stays to obtain, as does the serpentine Sarah. Elastic corset lacings, as I suggest, will at least prevent our looking as if we were padlocked into aboard fence when we recline in an easy chair— say like Langtry with a cigarette in one of her 'As in a Looking Glass' pictures."— Cincinnati Enquirer.

Motheli Should Remember. That the abdominal cavity is packed with its organs that the liver alone extends two-thirds across it. and that tight lacing deeply furrows the liver, sometimes cutting it in two, a thin membrane alone connecting the parts that the full stomach is thus often pushed up against a weakened heart, and the pelvic organs are so crowded as to produce serions $nd permanent ill effects.

That the lack of vitality in many children, by which they are rendered peculiarly susceptible to infectious diseases, is due to a deficiency of pure air in their sleeping rooms.

That a child's brain is not in a condition for study before its seventh year, and that when a child is precocious there is special reason for holding it back if it is to be saved from brain disease, future dullness, or possible imbecility.

That no growing child should fail to have at least nine or ten hours4 sleep in a well ventilated room, and that no sleep is perfect with alight in the room.

That children under 17 should not be allowed tho excitements of evening parties. That, children, from the earliest practicable age, should be trained to habits of self control in all directions.

That every mother ought to make it a prime object to secure and maintain the fullest, confidence of her children and her normal influence over them.—Youth's Companion.

When Baby Is Yomiitr.

Baby was troubled with soreness and discharge from the navel, and nothing seemed to do any good till I applied a raisin, split aud the seeds removed, keeping it firmly in place by two narrow strips of court plaster crossing each other. I changed the raisin twice in twenty-four hours in a week the navel was entirely healed.,

Put vaseline on baby's nose and chest when she has a cold, and it will also prevent all chafing and soreness under the arms, in the groin and neck and behind the ears. I found it better than any powder, starch, flour or castor oiL

Baby is one of those who never cry, and 1 lay it all to the fact that she has never had a pinned band on her except the week that the navel was healing all skirte button on waists which are loose and tie with tapes. Bands are crocheted of white Saxony and button in front flannel skirts button all the way down the front only one safety pin in the diaper and no pricked and crying baby.—Mrs. Ada DezotoU.'

How to Prepare Fly Paper. Almost any sticky substance spread upon paper will answer for catching flies, but if you have a soft spot in your heart and do not want to see the flys suffer for along time use poison. Fly paper is made as follows: Take sirup, honey or dissolved sugar and add about one ounce to each pound weight of yellow tersulphide of arsenic and then spread, upon paper with a brush. Another fly paper is made by boiling onehalf ounce of small quassia chips for ten minutes in a pint of water. Strain and add four ounces of molasses. The flies will drink this and soon die.—Exchange.

Cleaning White Ribbohs.

White ribbons cannot be washed in water to look well, but in gasoline they show no trace of ever being used before. Lay them to soak in gasoline, covering the dish for a few minutes, then wash thoroughly and lay for a few minutes again in clean gasoline to rinse. Do not wring, but hang in the open air. When dry fold and lay in a book' undeir a heavy weight. When they no longer look clear they can be colored with diamond dyes, but can never he made to look new after having once been washed and ironed.—Exchange. •».

A Library for Women.

Miss Annie Howard, daughter of the late Charles S. Howard, of New Orleans built a memorial to her father, and instead of a monolith she chose a library and dedicated it to the women of New Orleans. The building is a marvel of beauty, after the Roman style, and oost $100,000. It contains 13,000 volumes, has an endowment fund of (300,000, and all the assistant librarians are women.—Exchange.

Women as Cashiers.

One of the handsome belles of Columbus, O., is Miss Kittie Thurman, granddaughter of tho "Old Roman," ex-Senator Thurman. She is described as a pronounced brunette, and she has about her much of that individuality and strength which characterizes the daughters of Judge Thurman, one of whom, Mrs. McCormack, resides on Long Island.

j,'*- ,pjj} A Useful Sweeping Apron. I saw a few days since a new idea for a sweeping or dusting apron. It was made of unbleached muslin. There was a hem down each side to about eighteen inches from the top, fastened on the upper edge with a brier stitch of yellow silk. Each lower corner of the apron was turned over at right angles, meeting in the center. The hem around these corners was finished with the silk brier stitohing also. The point in the center at the bottom was turned up and secured with the stitching. Each corner was divided into two pockets by perpendiculor rows of stitching. Across the top there was a hem an inch and a half in width and through this a yellow satin ribbon was passed with long ends for strings. One can imagine the comfort and saving of time by finding the soft dust cloth and pair of old gloves always in place in one of the pockets.—Housewife.

How girls manage to live respectably and dress decently on a salary of & or 96 per week used to be a mystery to me. Yesterday I solved the problem—or rather a working girl solved it for me. I was seated before a counter in a Sixth avenue dry goods shop selecting fancy handkerchiefs. The salesgirl who was selling them was a patient little creature, with sad blue eyes apd a drawn expression about her mouth that did not belong to youth, but rather to that later day when reality forces itself upon fts pnd we feel the monotony of a routine existence. Her hair was fair and brushed smoothly back from her face, and she was dressed neatly in a plain black gown. "Do they treat you well here?" I asked. "Of course/' she laughed cynically, and commenoed to beat a tattoo with her fingers on the box cover beside me. There was that in her manner which told me more plainly than words that I might quiz her all day without receiving any satisfaction, so I told her what I wanted to find out. "Very well, but you will not tell my name. I should get discharged if the firm knew I had talked to customers. They are very strict about that," she answered. I promised eternal secrecy, and that neither her counter nor the shop in which she worked should be mentioned, and that not knowing her name, I could not repeat it. "How long have you been in a shop?" was my first question. "Over four years," she'answered. "What is your salary?" "Four dollars per week."

STRETCHING FOUR DOLLARS.

"Do you live with your parents or do you board?" "Iboard."c "How much does your board cost you?" "The people where I am staying are friends. They have a flat. I have a little room, and I have whatever they have to eat. I am like one of the family." "How much do you pay for your board?" "Two dollars and a half a week." "And your laundering?" "They let me use $ie stationary tub and I do it myself."., ""VT "How about your clothes? You seem well dressed." "I make them all myself in the evening after my work is done." "And your hats and gloves and shoes. How do you manage to buy those things with only $1.50 a week?" "I buy gloves when we have a sale and I can get a pair cheap. I pay fifty cents a pair for gloves, and one pair lasts me three months with mending and care." "But your hats" j, "I buy a cheap hat, bend it into a now shape and sew the trimming on myself." 'And your shoes—how much do they cost you?" "Shoes are expensive. It takes two weeks' savings to buy pair of shoes. I pay Jp a pair, but they last for six months." "But where can you find money enough out of your wages for hose, heavy skirts, flannels and linen for outside garments and dresses for warm weather?" "I make all of my clothes except my outside jacket. I buy the jacket ready made and cheap. It takes several weeks to buy one, but it lasts along time. I make my own summer dresses of dark ginghams. They are cheap, look neat and wear along time. I also make up my own linen. I buy cheap stockings and keep them darned." "Do you lit your own waists?" "Yes, I have a pattern that is just my measure, and then I buy jerseys to wear in the store." "How do you spend your evenings? Don't you go out at all?"

!i(

"Sometimes. I have many friends, but sewing takes up most of my time. Sometimes I go to the theatre with a lady friend. We sit in the gallery And it only costs us 25 cents apiece. She pays her fare and I pay mine. But we don't go often because it is so late when we get home and the next morning we are tired. Besides, my sewing wouldn't'get done." "How do you spend Sunday?" "I lie abed Sunday morning—it is the only morning I can rest, and I sleep most of the day. In the afternoon I read the newspapers and at night go to church,"

SUBSTITUTE TOR HAPPINESS.

"This is your daily life—are you happy?" I us to it "What do you look forward to?" "Nothing," she answered, dejectedly "Have you no ambition?"

What good would it do me? I am not educated, but I am sensible." "Don't you look forward to any happiness—most girls have sweethearts and look forward to a home of their own—they plan their wedding dresses and have never to be fulfilled dreams of happiness in marriage" "I have no sweetheart and I never dream —I don't have time during the day and at night I am too tired." "May I call at your home?" "You may come if you want to, but my salary is all the assistance I want I want nothing I do not earn."

I admired her independence, yet asked for her address, notwithstanding her refusal of assistance. She wrote it on a slip of paper—her name I will not mention. Her address was on Ninth avenue, near Nineteenth street.

Lost evening I called at the girl's home —rather boarding place. It was a tenement house fiat, in the fifth story of a gigantic block. I paused at each landing for sufficient breath to mount another flight, and was at last admitted to the right place. "I have been trying to think just what I pay for everything," she said, referring to a slip of paper she carried. "I pay 16 a year for shoes IS for gloves $4 for two jsrseys US buys me four gingham dresses and fixings |7 buys both summer and winter hats for one year my linen and flannels oost about 18 handkeFehie&, hose, ribbons and rachings, fS two cashmere dresses, ClO-one for best, one for every day—end I waar jewey waists and save the made one, aad the rest I spend on car fare and Christmas presents for the children.

lfow to Write Letter.

Write the date distinctly, the day of the month and the year—not just the day of the week.

Write on plain, unlined paper. Write your "q's" and "y's" differently, their tails turned in opposite directions.

Write your "t's" with across and your "i's" with a dot. Write an answer to your friend's questions if she had not wanted to know she would not have asked you.

Write with black ink—pale or faded ink has broken off more friendships and love affairs than one would imagine.

Write your name distinctly. If you are a married woman sign it, for example, "Virginia Andrews," exactly as if you were not married: but if it^s a business letter the Mrs. should be put in parentheses before your name or better still, the letter may be written in the third person. This same rule applies to an unmarried woman.

Write a short, crisp letter a concentration of brightness. It will be much more appreciated than one longer drawn out.

Write as little as possible on the subject of love. Words of love are much better said than written.

Write yourself down a bright, sensible girl, and you will then have written the very best letter that a girl cw possibly write,—Ladies' Home Journal.

The Virtue in Salads.

M. Henri de Vilmorin, president of the Botanical society of France, lectured before the Royal Horticultural society on the subject of salads. He spoke ot the nutritive value of salads, due to the potash salts, which, though present in vegetables generally, are eliminated in the process of cooking. These are some of the plants he enumerated as being used in France for salads: Lettuce, corn salad, common, chicory, barbe de capucin, curled and Batavian endives, dandelion in its several forms of green, watercresses, purslane in small quantities, blanched salsify tops, Brussels chicory, the roots of celeriac, rampion and radish, the bulbs of stachys, the stalks of celery, the flow era of nasturtium and yucca, the fruit of capsicum and tomato and in the south of Franco rocket, pieridium and Spanish onions. Various herbs are added to a French salad to garnish and flavor it—chervil, chives, shallot and borage flowers. In addition, many boiled vegetables are dressed with vinegar and oil. Tho lecturer exhibited specimens of dandelion, barbe do capucin and witloof, both varieties of chicories, which he commended to the notice of gardeners as most useful and palatable.—Cor. Chicago News.

Tho Other Side of a Popular Subject. A neighbor of mine tumbled off his house the other day while he was acting as amateur painter. A professional painter who stopped to inquire for him said he hoped he ?Vould not die of it, although he was taking the bread out of the mouth of the honest man. Our dressmakers have not begun to talk to us in this way on the contrary everybody praises the woman who has her daughters taugbt "the complete art of cutting and fitting." And yet dressmaking is a trade, as is shoemaking and millinery.. The woman who gets her bread and butter by it should know all the intT and outs of its many details. For other women to learn some smattering of it may often be convenient, even necessary, but it is not in the line of social nrogress. —New York Commercial Advertiser.

CATARRH

Catarrhal Deafness-Hay Fever. A New Home Treatment. Sufferers are not generally aware that these diseases are contagious, or that they are due to the presence of living parasites In the llalng membrane of the nose and eustachian tubes. Microscopic research, however, has proved this to be a fact, and the result of this discovery is that a simple remedy has been formulated whereby catarrh, catarrhal deafness and hay fever are permanently cured in from one to three simple applications made at home by the patient once In two weeks.

N. R—This treatment is not a snuff or i»n ointment: both have been discarded by reputable physicians as Injurious. A phamphlet explaining this new treatment Is sent free on receipt of a stamp to pay postage, by A. H. Dtxon & Son, 887 and 888 West King street, Toronto, Canada.—Ch rlatlan Advocate.
