THE BEST WAY TO TREAT CHAPERON.
If Only Slightly Married She May Ja
Great Addition.
The custom of supporting a chap
eron iri comfort and even luxury In
tho Incipient stages nf love-making,
while expensive, need not Bo consid-
t.ft I;i lite lt. . a 6 U..U.I'-
taking.
Many parents think a chaperon may
be dispensed with; others, that they
are absolutely necessary. Sometimes
Ue young man lliceb to have a chap
eron along. With some girls It la a
great deal safer.
If the chaperon Is young and hand
some and only slightly married her
self, she may be a -grout addition. In
case the girl goes back on you at a
critical moment you can fall back on
the chaperon. Chaperons of this de
scription betray a world of sympathy
during these periods.
If she Is old and inevitable, do not
Ignore her too much. Remember that
chaperons bave feelings. Feed her
up well and If possible give ber a
mild knockout-drop early in the even
ing. Occasionally a chaperon will hap
pen who has a New England con
science. A New England conscience,
oy the way, is the kind that never
enjoys Itself unless every one else
is miserable. Just as you get a Arm
hold on the girl and begin to kiss her
like a rapid-lire macblne-gun, the chap
eron will begin to puEh Icebergs on
your starboard bow and the lovely Au
rora Borealis you have been looking
at will get trapped. In this emergen
cy devote yourself for a few moments
to the chaperon herself. Kiss ber, re
membering that the only way you can
achieve liberty Is by risking death.
She will either faint away or subside.
If Bhe by any possibility offers to
tell the girl's parents on you. Insist
upon hex doing this at ouce, not omit
ting the details.
While 6he Is dolrg this you cm
make your final arrangements, Includ
ing the rope ladder, ti e cloudy nlsht,
the six-cylinder runabout, the usual
press notices, and the iiidigiiaut
father's final forgiveness.
Cottonseed Meal and Butter.
It 18 the general experience that
cottonseed meal produces a hard but
ter, and In some Instances a small
amount of this feed Is given for that
specttlc purpose. Crutle cottonseed
oil has been found to contain a
quantity of so called vegetable
stearin, which Is separated from ton
cottonseed oil of commerce in the
process of refining. Its fatty acids
have a high melting .olnt, and its
general composition is not unlike
that of other oils which have been
found to produce hard butter when
fed to cows. Corn oil, on the other
band, contains practically no stearin,
and Its fatty acids, like those of lin
seed oil, are liquid at a temperature
considerably below freezing point.
Th Freshman's Compliment.
A certain college president was en
tertaining a freshman at dinner,
when the conversation turned upon
footbaU. To the student's surprise,
the president displayed a thorough
familiarity with the game, and pro
ceeded to discuss It as earnestly as
though It hod been Greek or mathema
tics. Indeed, bis treatment of the
topic brought out so many points that
the freBhman bad overlooked, that
the youth was moved to remark to his
hostess :

Tsnics Will Preve Helpfnl U Im
poverished Scalps Toaie Recipe
Palling hair, an indication of die
eased condition of th scalp, may be
remedied in two ways. One 1 to take
tonic Internally, to build up th gen
eral strength the other, Is to treat
tte scalp The latter does not tak
much time or thought, and Is not
difficult. In point of fact any person
can apply It herself, but the services
of a member of th family make th.
treatment simpler.
Unless tbe hair is comi.it out liter
ally by bandfuls, as after a severe
illness, I believe brushing I most effl
uaclous. The brush - must bave long
bristles, rather far anart in nni.
'that they jail reach to tbe scalp, and
tne stroke is to stimulate quite a:
much as to polish tbe hair Itself. Ii
the scalp troubl. Is due to Illness, and
s new growth of hair 1 coming In
with the old. brushing u not ad visa
ble, I think, slrrply because as long
as there are two spears left In the
bead, as It were. It Is possible to make
a coiffure The old bair, under those
conditions, does not sap nourishment
from the new, and the whole Is far
easier to manage. Bur when there Is
no app' ent reason for the trouble
and he shedding I not great, then I
believe la th us of th brush.
Also there must be massage giver,
every night . tonlr put on at th
me time 1 likely to hasten Ira
provement. and a mixture I like Is
made of a dram of alcoholic tlnctun
of cantharides, half a dram of tlnr
ture of capsicum, two dram of nux
vomica, three-quarters of an ounce o'
cocoa oil and two and t half ounce?
of cologne. If the hair happen to bi
heavy with natural grease one more
likely to agree la made of half at.
ounce of alcoholic tincture of canthar
Ides, three-quarter, of an ounce eacj.
of spirits of rosemary, glycerine and
aromatic vin.zar with an ounce and
s half of rose water.
Either of these Is applied in th
same way. and . bouid be used ever)
nlcht A portion of this treatment
consists in combli.g the hair thorough
ly and brushing It, not only Mat to tht
head, but putting the brush under
Death and drawing the hair loose and
free, so that all p&rts are ventilated
Each stroke must begin on the scalp
so the tips of the bristles are felt
This done, the tresses should bi
divided In two sections, one-half pin
ncd so It will not get In the wa
when the other portion la treated
Then some tonic should be pourer
nto a sauce, and aprlled with a so l
tootb brush or tiny sponge to the
scalp. The hair Is again parted no
more than an IncL from the middle
and with the Utile brush or spong
the scalp line is wet. Another dlv
slon not more tbar an inch away I:
made, that line wet. and tbe hair lair
over, repeating the partings and ap
plications until tbe entire scalp ha.
been treated.
This done, massaging should b:gic
It consists merely In holding tbe Bn
gers firmly on different portions o
the scalp and ben ling the knockle
sc that the -calp moves, but tbe Bn
gers remain stationary. This 1 con
tnued all over the bead, tbe operatlo
taktng fifteen minute or more. A
tbe finish there should be a dlstluc
sensation of glo In the bead. Wit:
