The same sort of drawn thread work is sometimes used, with a lining of con- trasting color arranged behind the drawn work.

F your hair and scalp aren’t in as good condition as you would like, you will find a local application helpful. For instance, if your scalp is very dry and the hair inclined to be brittle there is nothing better than a warm oll treatment followed by & shampoo and tonic. Heat together equal parts of olive oll and mineral oil plus a few drops of oil of bergamot, just enough to take the chill off. Saturate a small pad of ab- sorbent cotton with the oils and pat it on the scalp, separating the hair as you go along to make quite sure that all parts of the scalp are reached. Wrap a towel round your head and let the oils remain on from one to two hours, or overnight if possible. Then shampoo the hair thoroughly. Use a mild liquid soap shampoo to wash the hair. Rinse in several waters and dry between warm towels. Before the hair is quite dry apply your scalp tonic and finish dry- ing the hair. A stimulating scalp tonic may be made of the following ingredi- ents: One dram tincture of can- tharides, 1 dram tincture of cinchona, | 6 drams castor oil, 3 drops tincture of | capsicum, 8 ounces bay rum. Shake well. Ask your druggist to mix the| tonic for you. In using the scalp tonic, pour a lit-| tle of it into a small saucer and dip into | it a pad of absorbent cotton wrapped in gauze, or you may use a small tooth- brush kept for the purpose. Apply it along the partings, massage it lightly into the scalp and let it dry. The same tonic may be used three times a week. The oil treatment and shampoo should be had once a week for a month or so until the scalp has regained its normal condition. After that the tonic may be used only after the semi-monthly ofl treatment and shampoo. Stretching the hair is excellent in ad- dition to scalp massage and tonic for stimulating the circulation. It is done by holding each individual section of hair up with the one hand immediately after it has been brushed and then placing the fingers of the other hand flat on the hair and presing gently, but firmly, the roots of the hair. Twe three times a week give your hair the benefit of this stretching treatment. Hair-pulling is also good if done cor- m:uy.u‘ O.r:lp s h.ndrull o(nd)uh' :T‘ near the scalp as possible a y pull the hair outward, then mm a rotary movement, that moves the scalp. Go over the whole scalp in this way. ‘What many beauty seekers fail to realize is that beauty problems have causes which often go deeper than one would suspect. Purely local treatments are often disappointing. In the case of the dry hair that we are considering today, it is necessary to build up one’s general health as well as to give regu- lar care to the scalp. When the body nourished on account of wrong diet or some physical ailment that interferes with metabolism, there arise all sorts of beauty problems. The hair is quick to reflect such unhealthy bodily conditions. Excessive dryness, loss of hair or premature grayness are common results. %‘mu and weak, brittle, slow- grot finger nails often go er.

Perhaps, however, the most useful purpose a wife serves consists in Mos'l' wives are good combination cooks, housekeepe: her being the perfect alibi. Taking her by and large, she is the best standing excuse that human ingenuity has ever devised for masculine shortcomings, and the real reason that most men get married is to get somebody to blame when things go wrong. ET a man be a sot and he cries aloud that his wife drove him to drink. Let a middle-aged man break his marriage vows, he is not to blame. It is his wife's fault.

They are anxious to get there and to arrive in a hurry, so they are the ones who step on the gas and make a man begin climbing. A wife is valuable as a press agent. The unmarried man has to wait for somebody else to sing his praises. He can't go about telling how great and wonderful he is and what a clever deal he pulled off or what & mar- velous operation he performed. He can't even volunteer to sing or to tell that perfectly corking story or do tricks with cards without making himself an insufferable ass. But the wife and ballyhoo for him.

Very few young couples furnish their first homes with an eye to the future younger generation thes may inhabit them. Their selection of a pale green upholstered davenport or a rose-colored armchair is made only in tlie interest of beauty and style, with no thought of its impracticability when lain upon by dirty-booted young war- riors or messy-pawed young misses.
