as a d dye e. e A henna rinse will bri brighten bri the hair In many instances but if one has hair of a softer sorter brown or I that is going gra gray to dye it with henna will make the face look just that much older and harder showIng showing showing show- show Ing up with emphasis every line that might be almost indistinguishable able with natures nature's chosen coloring Sage has long bt been e a favorite shampoo and if used regularly it has a tendency to d darken the hair or help heip it to retain its natural color colo Dont Don't use it too strong though Soon enough Lyzette Dear Miss Blair Blair I have noticed that some time ago you suggested that salt was good for a persons person's teeth Do you mean just ordinary table salt or is is there some soma specially pr prepared pared salt If so what kind is it And will you please tell me how it should be used My teeth are in pretty good condition right now and I 1 want to keep that way Thanking you for this in information information in- in formation GENE Salt Is one of the best things to have in ones one's medicine cabinet for tor every day use To begin with Gene you should keep at least two tooth brushes so that you will never have to use the same one twice in succession After ACter using rinse the brush thoroughly then coat it with ordinary table salt and then hang it on the hook so that it gets plenty lenty of fresh air all and sunlight if pos pos- sible For use in your our mouth and andon andon andon on your gums just dampen a little and put it on on your brush or dip the damp brush hi into to some salt in the palm of your hand then use it just justas justas as would a tooth paste It may seem pretty severe severe at first but you ou soon get used to it and then you'll feel that neither your brush nor your mouth Is quite clean unless you ou have used It once a day or every ery other day is often orten enough if you keep the brush coated with salt when not in use Alternate salt saIt with your favorite tooth paste paste or powder pow Salt Is antiseptic and very refreshing and it tends to strengthen strength strength- en and stimulate the gums which lengthens the life of the teeth I You are to tb take every precaution precaution pre precaution pre pre- caution known to keep your teeth healthy and in perfect condition When we consid consider r the number of ailments aliments directly traceable to neglected neglected neg neg- teeth It should be a lesson to tu every indivIdual Dear Blair How many rings is it proper to wear at one time Miss Blair I have a girl friend who puts as many manyas as three on on one finger and another on her hep little finger I insist that this is not in good taste but I was told that I didn't know what I was to talking king about Is that so Id I'd be I I much obliged if you'd give me me ne a afew afew afew few words in print to tack me up or prove that I am wrong r GIRL FRIEND We fear that your girl frIe friend d Is not going to welcome our comments comments com cont- ments any more than yours but you are entirely correct In In your contention contention contention con con- that too many rings loop look garish and are in very poor taste A wedding and engagement ring Orone or orone orone one lovely ring and a guard ring r. that Is inconspicuous are about the only combinations that look well wellon wellon on one finger and most people would hesitate to wear a third ring even on th the little finger for fear of ot having the whole look overdone or of ot spoiling the beauty of oC the ring on the fourth finger It is much better to wear the ring other-ring on the little finger of the other hand These days jewelry must match or blend in with the costume worn so if It this young lady is fortunate enough to have so many rings she will be wise to choose one or two to wear at one time and save the others for variety to go with other clothes A beautiful hand needs very little littleto to ornament it and a homely hand handIs Is only intensified in its ugliness by attracting attention Too much embellishment embellishment em em- spoils anything lovely whether It be natures nature's or mans man's handiwork Persuade your our little
