The Brook's Song.
OOME WITH ME! Come with me
!
I come with me!" sang a little
brook, one fine sunny morning.
"Come with me! Come with me! I'll
show you many a wonder many a
sight!"
"Very well," answered a buttercup
petal that had hung for a day right
over the bright surface of the brook.
"Very well, I'll cornel"
"Take me I Take me!" said a shin
ing green leaf. "I'd like to go on a
Journey."
So the tiny buttercup petal and the
blight green leaf dropped Into the
brook and were caught by the current
and taken on a long, long Journey.
And all the time they traveled, th
brook sang to them and explained the
things they saw on the way.
At first they went on through the
meadow that was not so wonderful,
though the buttercup petal was glad
Indeed to see the flowers at the other
end of the meadow. She had sniffed
their fragrance many a time before,
but never had she seen them.
Then they Jumped over a handful of
rocks and raced pell-mell through "a
narrow valley.
"Why do you hurry so fast?" asked
the buttercup petal breathlessly. "I
like to see what we are passing. Never
before have I seen such rocks let's
stop and look at them."
"Come with me! Come with me!"
sang the brook, in reply. "Come with
me; do not stop for rock-gasingl
There are greater wonders than these
rocks. Careful! Do not tarrv!" aha
shouted, as she saw that the green leaf
was nearly caught fast in soma rushes
at the side of the water. "Those
rushes reach out when I go swiftly
and try to pull me back. See how they
beckon? But we must not stay! Come
with me! LCrk where I am taking
you!"
Ths buttercuD netal and th.
leaf looked, but before they could no-
wca a inmg, uie brook had plunged
them Into darkness black darkness!
"Where are we?" exclaimed the petal
and the leaf. "Are we lost V
"No. Indeed." laua-hed th hmnir f

iawsi wnen you are used to the dark
ness, you can see beautiful columna I
made those. Drop, by drop I left some
of my Urns here, and, in the years I
havs been working, I have built up
those shining columns. Have I not
bean busy?
Before they, conld notice a thing,
the brook had plunged them into
darkness black darkness!
' Nor is that all I have done. Whilt
I am making ths columns. I am also
gathering up minerals minerals that
I can give back to the flowers in the
meadows that I will pass after leaving
here. Oh, I am busy, very, very busy
busy all the livelong day!"
And before the buttercup petal and
the leaf could get their breath and an
swer back, that busy little brook
dashed out Into the sunshine again.
Out into ths sunshine, over rocks and
pebbles and into another meadow.
And there the petal and the leaf got
caught on ths mossy bank, and there
they left ths brook. But, as long as
they lived, they could hear the brook
singingsinging on Its wsy to ths

Air Baths for Hair.
IT IS more difficult to keep tin hair
in good condition In the summer
than during the winter. In the
warmer months of the year there is
more duat In the air. Women spend
a large percentage of their time in
the open air where there are winds
and hot rays from ths sun to test the
quality of its color and fiber.
But if It is a greater task to keep
the hair in condition during the sum
mer, it is also possible to improve its
texture and strengthen it then. Clean
liness is the first essential to the
growth of luxuriant haTr. Hair, like
the body from which it springs, tV. rives
on fresh air. It is a fine thing to
shampoo the head and then permit the
hair to dry naturally In the pure air
to bs found only outdoors or in front
of an open window. The air has clean
ing qualities that are all its own. They
Invigorate and promote ths health,
which makes it beautiful.
But the very process I suggest for
drying the hair, there is a possibility
that it will be Injured under narrriful
conditions. The sun has a tendency to
bleach. Sometimes, especially at the
seashore you will see women whose
hair has been bleached in this way.
Unfortunately it is not uniformly
bleached and makes a miserable ap
pearance. Bear this In mind when, you
dry your hair outdoors or at an open
window. Too much sun la liable to
dissipate Its color. But taks advantage
of the warm months to give your hair
frequent sun baths. They will have
an appreciable effect on its appes ranee
and encourage growth.
Women motor more In ths summer
than any other season. Limousines
are deserted for topless road cara.
Tennis, golf and other games keep
women out of doors. In each Instance
the hair is under a greater tesa than
In the drawing room. The necessity
for shampooipg becomes more frequent
If ths scalp is to be kept free from
harmful accumulations that retard
growth and reduce strength. The hair
derives its nourishment from the scalp
and each washing removes a certain
amount of nutriment. With the oily
substances removed, It Is difficult to
arrange a graceful coiffure. When the
natural oils are limited In quantity, it
often become necessary to apply some
thing of this sort when the head is
shampooed at frequent intervals.
The hair should be given amp;i pro
tection in the summer. Veils .f ligh.

THOROUGHBRED A m s r 1 o a n
w omen are
prone to follow the path of leaat
reaistsnce when It comes to pledging
themselves occasionally to mors ex
pensive outlays than they can afford.
It is so dreadful to have to explain
to Mrs. G. that you really cannot af
ford to take two seats next to hers at
ths opera, or that a street car will
do for you, when she stands ready to
step Into a taxicab.
An English noblewoman or an Ital
ian countess would not hesitate for
a minute to tell you that she was too
poor if she was to Indulge in an
extravagance, and a Mrs. Harrlman
would not be alow to tell you that
she never pays more than such and
such a price for a hat and I think
it la $6.
It is not aristocratic, either In the
literal or figurative sense, to disre
gard the cost of things, and neither
titled nor moneyed aristocrats do. It
Is not high minded to be driven by
a sense of embarrassment into ex
travagance. Rout ths tawdry little demon of
pride In your bosom by saying you
cannot afford a thing when you can
not. Then don't.

Among the young girls who are devo

complexions and hair, should be jeop

tennis. Play to your heart's content,
but do not permit the game to have
such an effect on your appearance that
It will give you a heartache when you
look at your hair and complexion. And,
if you spend the summer at a water

water, wind and gun.
Summer brings an opportunity to
