WOMAN'S PAGE, MILADY BEAUTIFUL BY LOIS LEEDS. Dry Shampoos. Dear Miss Leeds: (1) What is the gorvect Mmethod of giving & dry sham. PoO? (2) What is the object of these? (3) Can they be used instead of t! Tegular shampoo? (4) What can I do for dandruff and falling hair? JANE ‘There are several Uused. Mix together one ounce of pow- dered orris root and one ounce of cornmeal. For excessively olly hair add a little powdered camphor. This 1s sufficient for several dry shampoos. Put the mixture in a box with a perforated top. When giving the dry shampoo, first brush out the hair thoroughly and divide it into sections of small strands; it may be parted in the center and each side divided into six or eight parfs. Shake a little of the orris-root mixture along the partings and on the hair, taking care to cover all the parts. Rub the powder into the hair and let it remain for a few minutes. Now brush gown each part in the hair with a 8. firm, even stroke. This will brush thé"powder through the hair, taking all the dust and grease along with it. ‘Take care to brush every particle of powder out. Finally, each strand may be goli&hed with a piece of old silk. (2) The object is the same as that of any other sham 10 make the hair clean. Those who take cold easily often prefer to use the dry shampoo during the colder months of the year. Also those whose hair is so oily that ul” maf‘t’ mmmdm (req\;ently h}.xnse t tead of washing the_hair too om4 (3) Most people feel that a shampoo with soap and water should be used oc- casionally, although it is quite possible to keep the hair absolutely clean with shampoos. O e ot important_factor n hair health is good circulation. Mas- sage and brushing stimulate this, and he | 5o must not be neglected for a single day, especially if there is dandruff and falling hair. I hope you noticed the recent article on dandruff, as it will help you more than space will permit now. There are so many different causes for falling hair that if you feel sure you are giving your hair and scalp their proper amount of massage and brushing, won't you please write again, inclosing stamped, self-addressed envelope, so that I may write you a personal letter? LOIS LEEDS. Dear Miss Leeds: (1) How can I cleanse my skin? If I use soap it seems too dry and if I use cold cream it seems too olly. (2) What causes my make-up to become greasy-looking a | few hours after it is applied? It is worse when I use a powder base. When I first apply the powder my skin seems dry. (3) I have chestnut brown hair, gray eyes and a fair eomplexion. What colors can I wear? What colors will make my eyes look darker? (4) Will a | blackhead cream really dissolve black- | heads? (5) How can I make my skin | smooth. SIXTEEN. | Answer.—(1) Use both. As your skin |is ‘inclined to be oily I would suggest that you first cleanse your face with |cold cream and wipe off the grime. | Then wash with pure soap and warm water, rinse thoroughly and dry. Finally apply an astringent and let it dry on the skin. (2) Evidently your powder | base is too oily for your skin. First |apply an astringent and then a vanish- | ing ‘cream before powdering. Or you | may use an astringent tonic or lotion. | (3) A becoming shade of blue is your best color. Black trimmed with cream | white or shell pink will be becoming. ‘Turquoise should be very becoming also, and for evening orchid, fuchsia, bright red, rust or pink. A deep shade of blue gray will make your eyes appear darker. (4)" A cream which really penetrates | deep into the pores and thus cleanses | them will make blackhedds gradually | disappear. In the meantime it is well to be especially careful about cleansing ‘ the face, as the most frequent causes of blackheads is improper and careless cleansing methods. (5) If you will | carefully follow all thc above sugges- tions and also see to it that you have plenty of exercise out of doors and that your diet is correct, the result should be a smooth and lovely skin, in time.

CRAIG. - February 21, 1857.—Rapid progress is being made on the huge platform that is being erected to accommodate the thousands of persons who will assemble at the east front of the Capitol March 4 to witness the inauguration of Mr. Buchanan as President of the Unh.edl States. The erection of this platform is made necessary by the fact that the space usually occupied by the crowds on such occasions is now covered by a hetero- geneous mass of marble blocks to be used in the enlargement of the Capitol. Many of these blocks are delicately or- namented, and it is necessary that they be protected from injury by the hands and feet of the 20,000 or 30,000 curious and eager persons who on March 4 will be moving back and forth over this area. Upon this immense platform all per- sons will be able to see the inaugural ceremonies much better than ever be- fore. Its supports are evidently ample, though a fall from it would probably do no injury, as it is not more than 3 feet from the ground. All the other arrangements for the| inauguration of Mr. Buchanan are go- ing forward smoothly. An unusually large number of visitors from the States is expected in the city on March 4. Among the military organizations that have sent word of their intention to take part in the inaugural ceremonies is the Charlestown City Guard of Mas- sachusetts, popularly known as the “Bunker Hill Boys.” It is one of the best-drilled military organizations in the Old Bay State and its band is very popular. The Bunker Hill Boys will leave Bos- ton by way of Lowell, Nashua and Wor- cester on Saturday, February 28, arriv- ing in New York on Sunday morning. They will leave New York Sunday aft- ernoon and arrive in Baltimore Monday morning. After spending the day in Baltimore they will entrain for Wash- ington and are due to reach this city on the morning of Tuesday, March 3° ‘They will stay here until Thursday. In the Charlestown City Guard. as it will be seen here, are 68 men. The es- timate of their expenses for the trip is $3,400. Capt. W. W. Plerce, their commanding officer, will be remem- bered as one of the delegates to the Democratic national convention at Cin- cinnati, when Mr. Buchanan was nom- inated for President. Capt. Pierce is re- garded as “a true representative of the National Democracy.” The leader of their band is P. S. Gilrhore of Salem, who is equally distinguished as a com- poser, director and performer. —_— String Beans With Pork. People who like the flavor of salt pork will find string beans cooked with a small piece of this meat very appetizing. Besides improving the flavor, salt pork supplies the beans with fat, a food sub- stance in which they are very low. After washing the beans that are to be cooked in this way, remove the ends and | strings, but do not cut into inch lengths. Put the whole beans to cook in boiling water and add one-fourth pound of pork for a sufficient amount of beans to serve four persons. Cook until the beans are tender and serve with the pork without removing from the liquid. JOLLY POLLY A Lesson in English. - BY JOSEPH J, FRISCH.

The Emperor did not mind this, but it exasperated him that his relatives seemed to think they must marry the beautiful creatures. Franz Josef's opposition drove the Archduke John Salvator and his hum- ble bride, Milly Stubel, to a tragic death at sea. However, the romance of the Archduke Henry and the lovely Milly Stubel—had a happy ending. It was at a dinner at the Hofburg, the imperial palace in Vienna, that the Archduke Henry told Franz Josef that he had fallen in love with Leopoldine. ‘The Emperor winked slyly. “These actresses are very fascinating, aren’t they?” he said. ‘“Amuse your- self, my boy. But don't think of mar- rying one. An archduchess is what you must have for a wife.” Henry, who was thinking of nbthing but marriage, feared to tell the Em- peror his real wish. But soon it was noticed that he was seen less and less at_court. Often while a brilliant assemblage standing in th with poor Leopoldine on his arm, gaz- ing at the illumination. He spent every moment he could with her. Foreseeing an attempt at marriage would follow, Franz Josef notified every bishop in Austria not to permit a cere- mony uniting Henry and Leopoldine. But he wasn't clever enough to frus- trate the lovers. One day the archduke gave & lunch- eon party at his palace. Leopoldine was not one of the four ladies present.

For fifteen years they lived the happlest sort ofean existence. The Emperor repented and invited them fo return to Austria. He created Leo- poldine the Countess of Waldeck.
