Shaking the hair, by catching hand-fuls hand-fuls of it by the ends and loosening the hairs from their clinging, individual indi-vidual neighbor, is the means followed fol-lowed by Anna Held, who has beautiful beau-tiful hair, to make it soft and fluffy. But if your hair is not naturally curly the kid-covered curlers are the only substitutes I know to make up the lack. These compounds, I have understood, have been used with success, though I do not give them my personal indorsement. Quince seed, one tablespoonful. Rainwater, one pint. Bruise the seeds. Boil the mixture mix-ture gently until the quantity is reduced re-duced three-quarters of a pint. Strain the liquid and when it has cooled add to it four tablespoonfuls of cologm Apply this to the hair with a small sponge. After dampening dampen-ing the hair with this roll on curlers.

If you arc full grown I should ad-vio ad-vio eatiDg but one meal a day, exercising ex-ercising much out of doors and sleeping an hour or two less a day. But since you are of a growing age 1 will not take .'.he responsibility of such advice without your first eon suiting a physician. If you aro at fourteen full grown. as are some persons, this advice will apply: Dark freckles should be treated as lighter ones. This is a harmless bleach.

The farmer prepares the soil before be sows his crop, and after aft-er be has sowed the crop be cultivates tho soil. Look well to the sod from which your hair grows. Keep the skin cool and moist and loose from the scalp. If the scalp be dry and scabby take frequent shampoos aud after eai u rub lanoline thoroughly into tbe roots of the hair Manv have faith in. the bairgrowing qualifies of vaseline. My objection to that is it is of mineral origin. I prefer cosmetics made from animal fats or vegetable oils. Massage your scalp every morning until the skin moves easily upon the scalp.
