It is a pity that some of the “latest ”
fashions are not permanently delayed.
Irene.—By chemical examination it is
found that the hair is composed of the
same elements and in nearly the same
proportion as are found in the horns
and hoofs of animals, the nails of onr
lingers, the feathers of birds and fowls
and even the outer or epidermal layer
of onr skin. Brown hair has the largest
percentage of carbon, while black hair
has a large proportion of oxygen and
sulphur. In red hair is found a reddish
oil, a small quantity of iron and a large
quantity of sulphur.
Dale. —The mental strength and worth
of a woman is expressed in her sur
roundings by the way she arranges her
home, by the clothes she wears and by
the books she loves. Everything about
a woman is stamped with the seal of
her character. One instantly under
stands whether the lady’s mind is har
monious or discordant.
Kittv.—lt is had policy to clip the
cuticle at the base of the finger nails.
Instead, dip >ou orange stick in cold
cream, then in pumice stone and move
gently over the tightened cuticle. Tins
is a very good lotion for the removal
of blackheads: One dram of boric acid
one ounce of alcohol, two ounces of
rose water. Apply at night. If the
skin becomes sensitive and sore apply
creme marquise.

Cost of Beauty
How New York Dames Keep Young.
Recently a young New York Society
woman received her monthly bill from
a downtown beauty parlor. This partic
ular bill amounted to Fifty-two dollars
for the month, which was. perhaps, a
little lower than the average monthly
accounts rendered by this Shop. It. con
tained sueh items ns Turkish Baths,
$2.00; Violet Water Rub, $.75; Facial
Massage, $.75. The attendants at these
exclusive “beauty parlors’’ frequently
make as much as ten dollars a day in
tips. Occasionally some “grande
dame” in sables extracts a perfumed
ten-dollar piece from her gold bag and
tosses it to Nancy with an air of lofty
grace, Oue of these attendants confided
to a friend in an unguarded moment
that among the many lotions and beauty
restorers used in sneh establishments, a
preparation for restoring gray hair was
most in demand. It is usually charged
! on the bill at five dollars a bottle, under
a fancy name, but in reality is the
■ same formula as HAY' ’8 HAIR
