This process over, dip the finger tips in olive oil or rub them along a piece ot cocoa butter. Carefully and gently massage the scalp till every part has benefited by the emollient. ‘I'hen, take another soft baby's brush (not the one that cleansed your hair), and brush each of the six strands finto | which you have divided your tresses many, many times.

Should I Keep this promise if I see someone I like better? 15 it proper to kiss a boy good-bye at the train, whom I've gone with for over a year?
