One of the be*?t first "helps" to sh & scanty locks is the false pompadour. Not Pa ?. the piece of hair pinned to the front of fj? *v the head which deceives nobody?but a .

F? % A woman with a fat, round face should . not wear a perfectly round pompadour. '1 Instead, she should divide the hair in three parts and arrange each strand , separately to suit her face. If tiie cheek bones are high or the face is broad as th well as round, the hair must be puffed th ^ slightly on the sides. jj0 *?
