WOMAN'’S PAGE. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. G WEDNESDAY, ANUARY 27, 1932 BY LYDIA LE EARON WALKER. | Women Who Market Wares \ | | HE woman who would market her wares must keep herself in- formed about what persons want to buy and why they buy them These points are among the es- sentlals that buyers for stores have to consider. It is well known that good from the world of commerce do not | appreciate why and for what salaries | are paid. When they begin to consider | making things to sell and attempt to market them they begin to glimpse this | absorbing problem of supply and de- mand in the business world. In a small | way they must acquaint themselves with | the problems which confront successful | buyers and saleswomen.

THE ONLY KIND OF FORTUNE THAT NEVER MISSES 1S MISFORTUNE , A. O.—“Unfortunately.” says.a writer, “there are as many rude women in the world as there are rude men.” In many cases, where a man bestows a favor upon a woman, she fails to thank him, and vice versa. Every act of thoughtfulness or courtesy how small, should be rewarded with at least a hearty “Thank you!” . M. @ Oxydol—that's it.

HERE seem to be unquestionable signs of affectation in this hand- writing, but withal we would ex- pect it to be that of an interest- ing, charming person. Some of her letters, such as “g” and “o,” are formed in a semi-print style, yet they preserve the softness and individuality of writing The very round, large loop of the * is of great importance. It marks her a5 a generous, open-hearted character, who has only the best wishes for bwr fellow men. These kind thoughts are perhaps often translated into some- thing more practical, for she probably often lends her assistance to people less fortunate than she. In addition, a large lower loop is usually an indication of a practical person who is able efficiently to manage her own life. Contrast in letter size, such as is demonstrated in the capital “W,” fre- quently denotes a love for the bizarre and unusual. She seems to have an appreciation of beauty and art, but sim- ple objects with soft coloring would perhaps not interest her so much as more elaborate, vivid ones. Things of an Indian or Oriental inspiration would possibly be of greatest interest to her. She “seems well fitted to become a successful physician. ~ Subjects of a scientific nature would apparently hold strong appeal for her.

T I8 just as natural for older people to have gray or white hair as it is for young people to have smooth complexions and rosy cheeks. Sci- ence may yet find & way to prevent the signs of approaching old age, but such a discovery is still in the future.| t to Ct 85 In this day and age we must ex grow older in appearance as in gracefully as we can. The first thing to do about graying hair {5 to gain & sense of proportion about it. Never exaggerate the impor- tance of a few graying hairs, and re- member that they are not as consplcu- | ous &s you think they are. Those few gray hairs which stand out so promi- nently when you look closely at your hair in the mirror are not noticeable a yard or two away. If you keep your scalp, hair and general health in first- class condition, you may retard this process to a very great extent. In the meantime make the bast of other beauty Tesources, Hair what s predoiinantly white with yellowlch streaks in it may be a silvery crown of glory by careful bleaching of the discolored strands with peroxide An ounce of peroxide with six drops of aqua ammonia added makes a good bleach for this purpose. Use pe 3 that is more than 15 volumes, as indi- cated on the bottle. The ammonia should not be the ordinary household ammonia one buys at the grocery store. but the drug store kind. Apply the bleach to the streaks, one at a time, leaving it on about 10 minutes. Then shampoo carefully, using a mild liquid soap shampoo or a white of egg shampoo. If the streaks are not bleached in this first treatment, repeat | it before your next shampco. Use a | bluing rinse or a blue ink rinse after the shampoo. Use enough to make the water a sky blue. The rinse may be washed off ‘after 10 minutes or left on overnight. Afte) white or gray hal has been permansntly waved it is very important to have the bluing applied | before the hair $s removed frocm the | curling rods. When the hair begins to { turn gray or white, its texture as well as its color is gradually altered. It ususily becomes more brittle and is drier and scantier. For this reason it |1s important to use only the purest, mildest soaps that are barely alkaline’ The following is & particularly good shampoo for gray or white hair: Grate | two ounces of castile soap and mix it with one-half ounce of potassium car- bonate and three ounces of water. Melt in a double bofler until the soap is thoroughly dissolved. Mix one ounce cologne water and ten drops of oil of bergamot and add to the soap mixture. Blend thoroughly. The mixture may be thinned with more water if desired Use a little of this preparation mixed with warm water for the shampoo. Rinse the hair thoroughly in tepid water and to the final rinse add a few drops of bluing White of egg shampoos are beneficial for gray and wiite hair also. Apply the beaten whites of three eggs to the wetting rm water. Add one rosewater and one logne water when whites.
