Don't use a comb to spread the pom- pa dour by pulling the hair forward over the forward. Don't comb the hair from the fore- head over backward when arranging to brush it. If the hair be long and heavy the strain comes on the front hairs with each stroke of the brush. If they do not fracture and fall out at once, they become loosened in the foll- icle, kink up, and drop out later. Avoid vigorous brushing; bear in mind that one hair on the head is worth two in the brush. Don't use curlers or kids during sleeping hours. Don't grasp the front hair by the points to roots, "roughing it" in order to make a full, round pompadour. 'This needless abuse destroys life and Lustre, fractures the hair shaft, ren- ders it knotty, and produces a frumpy aged appearance. Don's use face bleach without first protecting the hair line by saturating the short hairs with sweet almond or cocoanut oil. Don't scrub the hair line with a fac. ial brush: pin a small towel over the hair before you commence operations with a facial brush. Don't rub facial cream into the hair line when using it •on the face, as it fills the follicles with fatty substance and prevents proper growth. Don't use strong alkalies to lighten the color, or shampoo too frequently to keep the hair fluffy. Don't linger on the beach after bath- ing and allow the salt to dry in the hair. Don't take everybody's advice and do all sorts of things to your hair and scalp. -Juliet Marion Lee in the Sept- ember Delineator.

Many farmyards are troubled with burdocks. The best way to kill them as far as experience has Shown, is to cut the plant off an inch or so below the surface of the ground with a sharp spade, then place two or three tea- spoonfuls of a concentrated lye solu- tion, use three gallons of water to one package of Gillett's lye. The ordinary way of cutting off the weed with a scythe leaves room for small shoots to grow, which throw out burrs that are very troublesome.
