A drop r two on the hair Is affective also. The bonny brown Haired, rosy cheeked girl suggests ros Am rlcn keaaty. Jacqueminot, or tea rosea, Buch odora may be purchased and are delicate and dellclqua. Tha dark girl auggesta sandalwood and spicy odora Jasmine and tuberose for tha aah blende, and red haired girls uggest lavender. I know one Titian haired girl who effect lavender at all time, and ehe Is a veritable garden in neraelf, most refreshing. She uses little of the perfume, but she uses lavender water In iter dally bath and on her hair. She keeps her linen chests filled with the dried lavender fiowera.

She avoids the dliagreeabl effect of running through the whole gamut of odors with ro perfume in her glove box, sandalwood in her veil", end violet In her gown. It la a pretty fancy, especially for young girl, to elert an odor which h&rmoniie with their most be coming or favorite color, and whn opportunity or means admit the idea 1 carrld even to the furnlehlnge of the girl's room. Tarnation, rose. Illy, violet, laven der, mignonette, and ceroll lend themselves ehanninfly to thla Individuality. All hletory la filled with the overpowering Inflneno exarcliad upon man by perfumea.
