It is within tho power of Almost everybody to have n fine bead o( hair, or to pos sens whnt looks llko one, whother her lookn nro long or short, thick or tlilit. dry or oily, dark, fair or Just inld lirowu. Tho whole secret IIcb In the stnto of tho henllh and tho dally care of the linlr. If the hair Is In an Impoverished condition, abnormally creasy or ab normally dry, showing n tendency In become brlttlo and hrenk orf shorts If It Iobcb Its color nnd bulk then It Ib no cood In bcglnnliiK any hair trcatmoii: without first Attending to the general Btnte of the health. Ono should take sufficient exercise nnd rest and correct any Indiscretions In diet. Where an anactntc condition exists n tonic often does wonders, so will n courBO of cod liver oil, while raw eRgs and unboiled milk ar ar ticles of diet which dlroctly beautlf tho hair. As to the general care of th luilr It nhould bo washed as often as It requires cleaning. Once a week Is not too often for a very oily type of hair, and about once In threo weeks Is -good average for ordinary hair. If It Is washed at homo liquid soap In the best thing to iibo. The, hair should be thoroughly wetted with warm water, then a handful of the liquid rubbed In. If It docs not. lather at once use. a Httlo moro water and a llttlo moro liquid till tho whole hend Is In a perfect foam; rlnsn out tho lather very thoroughly, take tho worst of tho moisture- off with hot towols. and dry by brushing nnd fanning. Do not on nny account seek to dry It by the fire. Tho dally care of the hair Is most Important. It should be well brushed every night, tho scalp being Aral of all treated with a rather hard brush to sttmulato the circulation, and tho long hair- aftcrw'ard brushed with long, swcoplug strokes, two brushes with rather long, stiff bristles being used.

"I could nnme more than one man who dyes his hair and confesses tn ten years less thnn his birth ccrtlflfntc would show." "True some men nie vain," I sighed. "Some, did you say?" she queried. "They're all vain. For Simon pure vanity, a womnn ran't compare with a man. Every nun is proud of his shape, if nothing else. Ho believes what his tailor tells him. A mun's vnnlly la of I ho hnrd-sholl variety you can't crack It. His fellowmen don't try, cither. Men don't comment upon each othor's personal points, ns women do among themselves. Women hnvo a way of pointing out other women's deficien cies to their faces, which tnkes off sorno of tho shine of their vanity. "What men dub vanity In women Is In most cases plain good business. A woman knows thnt a lot of her success, In whatever her walk of life, depends upon her appearance. There fore sho cultivates as pleasing an ap pearance as possible. Sho takes the name pslns with hor pcronnllty, If she Is wise. And sho lies about her ngo for tho same reason. "I know several school teachers this minute who aro down on tlm records ns several years younger than they really arc. Ono would expect gray hairs and middle age to bo assets In the schoolroom, If nnywhere. Yet the solemn fact Is that thcro Is n constant effort to push out tho teachers who are pretty well along In years. The gen eral Idea Is that It Is tlmo for them to rctlro andjslve the younger ones a chance.

She dyed hor hair, and ii one of the most popular women doc tors In town Jodny. "I know a lot of women in business who aro still considered young wo men and whose ages would sturtln you If you ever found them out. They aie valuable lu their business connec tions, but If they didn't lie about their years they would not receive tho same consideration or the same salary. 'Old ones' aren't wanted. There Is an In herent disrespect somewhere In the masculine get-up for n woman over forty, especially when she works for n living. The Idea Is, I suppose, Hint slit: ought to bo n grandmother and rcail.v for the shelf by thnt time. "Hut even the married woman Isn't always allowed to grow old In com fort. Very often, when a woman Is married, she Is as old or older than the man who marries her.

I know ono man near the sixty murk who wears tho most marvelous toupee you ever saw -you'd swear the hair grew on his head, lie admits to forly nlno years of ills nge. -Ills wife la shout fifty, but he wants her to stay joung looking because folks might think he Is old If she looks old.
