SUN BATH$ FOR THE HAIR. It Is said that frequent sun baths are the beet known tonics for a woman's hair. The Greek maidens of old who eat on the walls of the city and combed their hair owed the beamy of their treseee to the tun's rays. When the hair is washed sit beside a lowered window, as the sun shines stronger through glass, and allow the hair to dry as It Is being Crushed. No bleach has been found so successful as the sun, yrhlch strengthens and

A Blat to Buy Mothor*. If busy mothers, with more swing on hand than they know what to do with, would use a little system in this, as well as in all other home dutiea, it would save much work and any amount at worry. Almost all mothers have to attend personally to planning the clothes for the little folks, to the .buying of materials, consulting dressmakers as to how this or should be made, and so on list of things necessary to the sewing season. It Is really much more satisfactory to lay In a stock of materials, everything necssary. and have a good aeatostress come to the house at stated Intervals during the year, and then do all the sewing that Is to be done— the making of new clothes and remodelling of old. providing the mother canot afford all new. By haring, say. two regular sewing periods every year, the plain wardrobe of a family can be kept In god shape with Infinitely leas trouble than by the constant a little every day method.—The Gentle-
