Cfl piness the Alpine village girl
Atfj took out four pins, threw
SBni'jflß hack her head, and gave a
BjgiiSsSj shake; down came the rip
pling, billowing cascade.
Exultant, he who seemed but a dull
Dauphinois peasant, without poetry or
esthetics, spread tho maßslve ash
blond tresses for the sun to strike flr«
and gay gilt reflects from them.
"I love your hair, Helene," he said,
and he said true.< But in his heart
he dreamed: "I might get eight hun

Paris buyer:
One hair was bought only by the
hair-lacking. The old, easy-going
hair-buyer, half a peddler, went
through Brittany, the Limousin and
the Correze with a stock of gay
shawls, parasols and umbrellas, and
by throwing a gold-piece here and
there li« could pick up the standard
shades and qualities from poor girls
who were Ignorant or hopeless.
At present false hair unashamed
(ally confessed, is rampant on heads
beautifully endowed by nature. The
vast hats of two years required great
quantities of puffing to frame the
face beneath them. And now that
rich woman of America and Europe
•eem confirmed in the craze of match
es their own splendid tresses, to
pile hair on hair, in great coifTures
with large hats, small hats or no
hats at all, the price of standard
qualities has quadrupled; fancy hair
attains extraordinary prices. Paris
hairdressers rejoice In this new style
"buyer.
Such a one had come to Saint Mar
tin d'Uriage. He was scouring all
Savoy and Dauphlny, but to nine
peasant girls In ten he remained the
peddler out of whom good money
might be luckily extorted for long
and wavy heads of hair, in standard
browns, blacks, pale blonds and red
blonds. It was his rich dealings with
the tenth girl that sent them flutter
ing, and all the more because the re
cent prize-winner had been Mere
Grivonne, aged sixty-seven, but still
lively in wind and limb. After a week
of dickering, the buyer had given her
sixty dollars in bright ten-franc gold
pieces, and clipped— what no one on
the mountain-side had noticed she
possessed —-a heavy head of silvery
white hair of the rarest tint and qual
ity.
The buyer, boarding with Monbelun,
the miller, was going over his stock
and his correspondance. The Paris
wholesale house for which he traveled
In connection with the most expensive
of the world's hair dressers urged by
mail and telegram for hair, more
hair!
Hair for twists and turbans! The
era of frlzettes and chlchis has pass
ed. No more does milady stick a
dozen little pufTs around her head.
Do you remember how she used to sit
pensive? You thought she was dream
ing of you, but she was only wonder
ing if her frlzettes were coming out.
Her present alert confidence is due
to the knowledge that her Immense
false twist is surely tight. Wound
round and round, it makes the whole
back of her present low coiffure.
Hair for wigs! The ultrafashlon
ables pull their own beautiful hair
back and wind it tight. On with the
wig! Is it because they have not
very lovely hair of their own? Un
deceive yourself. They have enough,
but they want more. The new flat
coiffures may look simple; but the
great turbans demand long. thick
hair. Moreover, the beauty of the ef
fect depends on unmussed smooth
ness, hard to attain day by day. Our
women have the habit of false hair.
The present style Is suited to the
wig. The wig is always smooth and
smart. On with the wig!
The automobile was the first pre
text for wigs. Speed and dust will
cut and dirty Mndame's precious
locks, and the w!nd breaks down the
undulations of the hot irons. Women
who can not stand severely flat ef
fects cline to th*>ir swelling Marcelle
waves upon the sides. Now, you ran
run the hot iron through false undu
lations without injuring your precious
hair; whence transformations.
If the foundation of a wig is like
a cap, that transformation is a mere
band. See the fair one putting on her
transformation! Fresh from the hot
Iron, waving splendidly, it is a crown
of up-swelling tresses. Delicately sho
crowns herself with It. Upwards she
smooths its rising wavelets, mixing j
them slightly with her own hair, tin- |
derneath to where they meet at the
crown, and then the big false braid
conceals the meeting.
Hair! More hair!
The buyer going over stock and
correspondence saw that he must

for a more ignorant locality. His
Paris bouso was selling long torsades
of standard blond and brunette at $lB 1
apiece, and the hair to make them
was averaging sl2. Transformations
of the same tint* and quality were
selling at between $25 and 50. Wigs
were selling at between S4O and s6#
per kilo. Yet here were girls wltfc
less than half a kilo on their
heads refusing to be shorn for less
than S3O. Do not be surprised at
these figures. They are moderate —
for "live" hair cut from vigorous Eu
ropean girls. The cheap article is
brittle from strong chemical treat
ment—and dead Chinese women! Half
the present false hair comes from
China.
Some comes from an island in the
Caribbean sea where the most ma
lignant leprosy cases are sent by the
Cuban authorities. A little while ago
the head of the glove department of
a New Yorw department store pur
chased a switch In the false hair de
partment. Within two weeks from
the time she began to wear the switch
the upper part of her body was at
tacked with a disease which several
doctors after consultation pronounced
to be leprosy.
Cheap false hair Is dangerous. It
all comes from Indian and Chinese
people. If you must have false hair,
see to it that it is live hair. It will
cost more, but it's safe. It is said
that there are three qualities of hair
in the market: fine soft hair, cut from
the heads of live white girls, cheap
hair that comes from dead women of
other races, and still cheaper which
is made into so-called "rata" and is
said to derive its being mostly from
different kinds of animals and to be
"filthy, beastly stuff."
"I will put a notice In the "Place"
that I am quitting Saint Martin d'Url
age after next market day."he said
to Monzelun, the miller. "The young
men are standing in their own light
not to order their own girls to come
up and get their money!"
"The young men are willing to sell,"
replied the miller, "but they yearn for
better prices. A poor girl's hair Is
her marriage portion; but at the rates
you offer, it Is as safe on her head
You can always walk down to Gren
oble and sell it at need; and mean
while more liberal buyers may hap
pen along. Our young men know that
hair is gone up."
"A little knowledge is a dangerous
thing," the buyer anskered. "Because
I have have given heavy prices for
a few rare heads, they must not think
that common hair is scarce. In the
next village I will find twenty marri
ageable girls who are willing to trade
off their useless locks for the price
of a young donkey."
He knew the miller would retail his
talk on market day. The miller In
these remote centers Is the general
exchange. Incoming peasants bring
their bag of grist to him across the
donkey's back, take home a third in
(lour, and trade the rest. Not twice
a year do they goto Grenoble, twenty
miles down and back, up the innum
erable steep lacets of the mountain
side . Tliey fear the city's unknown
ways. The buyer knew this when he
added:
"As for t..e girls Felling at Gren
oble, why, we send hair to Grenoble
ready made up!"
But the buyer would not leave Saint
Martin d'Uriago without a certain
treasure.
"Our client is a millionaire Ameri
caine," the great hair-dresser wrote,
j "We can offer you one hundred per
j cent on he lowest price you have to
j pay in cese you succeed; and as the
: lady ha|i honored us with practically
unlimited order, I will not conceal
from yrj»i that I ain giving this same
»ommis»ion to several buyers. Yon

CAMERON COUNTY PRESS. THURSDAY, MARCH 30. 1911.
Long the buyer had been waiting
for a certain young man to com* to
him.
Now the young man, having seen
the miller, happened to stroll by.
"Have you the cutting?" questioned
the buyer.
"No." the young man answered. "I
refuse to ask her for It till I know
your price. I will not wound her feet
lngs uselessly. I will not sell my
girl's hair for a trifle. Put on stamped
paper that you will give $l6O and I
will see about it. Don't forget that
my girl's hair is naturally wavy."
"Absurd!" cried the buyer. "Her®,

depends on the matching. If your
girl's hair does not match my sample
absolutely, natural wavlness will add
—yes, say S2O, to fine aah-blond hair
—say three-quarters of a kilo; why,
S2O is a ridiculously high valuation,
but I will write down on stamped pa
per that I will pay SIOO in case the
sample matches."
Georges shook his head.
"One hundred and ten dollar* —I
can not do better."
Negation. The young man dM love
her hair.
"One hundred and twenty dollars in
case the sample matches."
And love conquered—love of don
keys, heifers, goats, lambs, turkey*,
chickens.
"Write it down plain," said the
young man,, who also loved his girl's
tresses. Then, when he had the pa
per safely in his pocket, he addad:
"Now write what you will give in
case the sample does not match."
Next market day at Saint Martin
d'Urlage four girls stood with their
splendid hair down around the stene
bench opposite the mill.
"Be seated." The radiant barer
motioned to two of them.
He put their arms through the
sleeves of a barber's apron, orer
which, around his shoulders, he tied
a black muslin cape. Ostensibly it
was to help him cut. In truth It
was to help him judge the hair's con
sistency of tint before he actually
sheared It. But it looked uncanny,
like the preparation of an execution.
The first girl went under comb and
shears. Straight down the two side*
of her head —so that each half fell
over a shoulder —the man combed
all her tresses, parted at the crown.
S-z-z-z-z —!
The shears made a long, continu
ous sound, no snipping—and in hi*
left hand he held half the girl's hair.
S-z-z-z-z —!
The girl was sheared.
Next girl!
The next girl was Helene Oast.
You would not have dreamt that
she wept all night. In lazy pride she
took out four pins, threw her head
back, gave a shake, and down came
the rippling, wavy, billowing cas
cade. The sun struck fire and gave
gold reflects from its ash-blond glory.
"Hair is such a bother," she
laughed, bluffing bravely; "and the
money Is important. I hope Georges
won't mind much when he learns
what I am doing. He so loves my
hair."
A Subtle Deduction.
"Ha!" exclaimed Sherlock Holmes,
Jr. "That man is married. He haa
been married for more than two
years."
"Do you know him?" asked Dr.
Wharton.
"No. I never before saw him; but
I heard him say a moment ago that he
had forgotten all about St. Valentine'*
day until it was past."

Restored to Health by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
A woman who is sick and suffering, and won't at least
try a medicine which has the record of Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, is, it would almost seem, to blame
for her own wretchedness. Read what this woman says:
Richmond, Mo. " When my second daughter was eighteen
months old I was pronounced a hopeless invalid by specialists.
I had a consultation of doctors and they said I had a severe cas«
of ulceration. I was In bed for ten weeks, had sinking' spells,
and was pronounced to be in a dangerous condition. My father
insisted that we try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound*
and brought me six bottles. I soon began to improve, and be
fore it had all been taken I was as well and strong as ever,—my
friends hardly recognized mo so great was the change." Mrs.
W oodson Brans tetter, Richmond, Mo.
There are literally hundreds of thousands of women in
the United States who have been benefited by this famous
old remedy, which was produced from roots and herbs over
thirty years ago by a woman to relieve woman's suffering.
Read what another woman says:
Jonesboro, Texas. —"I have used Lydia E.Pinkham's Vegeta
ble Compound for myself and daughter, and consider it une
qualled for all female diseases. I would not bo without it for
anything. I wish every mother in America could be persuaded
to use it as there would bo less suffering among our sex then.
I am alwavs glad to speak a word of praise for Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound, and you are at liberty to use this
testimonial."—Mrs. James T. Lawrence, Jonesboro, Texas.
Since we guarantee that all testimonials which we pub
lish are genuine, is it not fair to suppose that if Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound had the virtue to help
these women it will help any other woman who is suffering
from the same trouble ?

Compound has been the standard remedy for //IffitgYvl\C
