HOW TO DARKEN
GRAY HAIR
A Cincinnati Barber Tells How to
Make a Remedy for Gray Hair.
A well-known resident of Cincin
nati, Ohio, who has been a barber for
more than forty years, recently made
the following statement:
“Anyone can prepare a simple mix
ture at home, at very little cost, that
will darken gray hair, and make it
soft and glossy. To a half-pint of
water add 1 ounce bay rum, a small
box of Barbo Compound* and 1-4 ounce
glycerine. These ingredients can be
bought at any drug store at very lit
tle cost. Apply to the hair twice a
week until the desired shade is ob
tained. This will make a gray-haired
person look twenty years younger.
It is easy to use, does not color the
most delicate scalp, is not sticky or
greasy and does not rub off.”

The cool winter evenings are coming and that means staying
indoors, and while a lot of us like to read, yet many of us like to
have the evenings for playtime. There are many duties for the
days, so if you want to have a party or just games at home and
would like some suggestions, write me and I will be glad to help
vou spend your evenings pleasantly. Lovingly,
AUNT JULIA.
P. S.—Thank you so much, Bernice Beaty, for the picture of
Toccoa Falls. I went there once when I was a little girl and thought
it a most beautiful spot.
Dearest Aunt Julia and Cousins: Just
thought I would drop in for a little while
and see what you were talking about. Oh,
yes. about your Journey with Aunt Julia.
Cousins, how are you enjoying yourself on
your trip? Just fine I hope.
Guess some of you cousins remember me
'don’t you? I wrote to the letter box some
time ago and received lots of nice let
ters, which I enjoyed very much. X will
not describe myself this time. My age is
between 15 and 19. How many of you cou

others. I also do lots of crochet work.
Would like to exchange patterns with some

Dear Aunt Julia: I am as lonesome as
any sailor can be in sight of Long Beach,
Cal., and a few minutes’ ride from Los An
geles and Venice. But there is one thing
which I enjoy more than all else, and that
is to receive letters from little women who
are equally glad to have them answered.
My home is in Sioux Falls, S. Dak., not
a very romantic locality, but we can’t all
be from below the Mason and Dixon line.
My schoolmates have often told me, con
fidentially, that I have a face which only
a mother could tolerate (not love). So
what chance have I to get your sympathy
and co-operation in getting the young wom
en of nowadays interested in me. Never
theless. I have survived twenty-two sum
mers, and have succeeded in growing to the
height of five feet ten and one-half inches:
have a bad disposition during the day and
get sleepy at night; outside of this am
perfectly normal. Thank you very much,
Aunt Julia, again, and again for each let
ter I reveive from the south. Sincerely
yours,

Dear Aunt .Tula and Cousins: Here comes
a new cousin. I wrote to the letter box
about two years ago, but I failed to see
my letter in print. But I would be very
glad to see this in print, for I want to hear
from cousins from most all the states. Now
I will describe myself, so any who should
write can in their imagination think what
I am like. I am 5 feet 1 inch tall and
weigh 118 pounds. I have blue eyes, me
dium complexion and dark brown hnir and
will be fifteen years old the 25th of May.
Who has my birthday? I will close. Hoping
to see this in print soon. If any of you
cousins wish to write to a Georgia girl,

The Country Home
BY MRS. W. H. FELTON
THE MINISTEB’S WIFE
"Sermons unwritten and unsaid,
Her quiet life is preaching;
Fresh texts from God’s own gospel
read
Her daily lips are teaching.
“No loud-mouthed Pharisaic prayers,
No lengthy exhortation,
But in her cup of many cares
Is mingled consolation.
“If one she loves can break the bread,
At any glad communion table,
She can exclaim, with bowed head.
Lord, that he may be able!”
“To hold the hand that breaks the
bread
That it may give the brothers,
To soothe betimes the aching head
That thinks the thought for others.
“She may not pour the holy wine,
At any glad communion,
Her mission is no less divine,
To be a loving woman.
•‘To sing the song of Joy and peace
For him who tries to speak it,
To make sweet charity increase
Where other hearts can see it.
“Sometimes in low-voiced baritone
Sometimes in treble sweetness,
The old, old story better known
Shall give each life completeness.
“So, though n oordinary vows
May consecrate her life,
My heart to her in reverence bows—
The quiet preacher’s wife.”
—ESTER FLEMING.

(This the last installment of “A
Journey With Aunt Julia.” The trip
to the Barry schools, at Borne, with
the conductor of the famous I<e;ter
Box has been a most enjoyable one,
judging’ from what readers of the
paper say, and it’s a pity that the
“journey” could not have been long
er. However, it is to be hoped that
Aunt Julia will have something else
to tell her friends before long.)
There’s a wonderful barn and the
boys learn all about the care of cat
tle and look after the dairy—and let
me tell you about a boy that came
to the school in its earliest days. He
was just determined to have an edu
cation and he walked for miles and
miles driving his pair of. pet oxen.
He raised them from babies and he
loved them so, but he offered them
to Miss Berry in exchange for his
education, and Miss Berry took them
all three in. She let the boy have
entire charge of his oxen, they were
his pets still, and he stayed until he
had real knowledge and a splendid
education.
We had gotten back to the Boys’
school by this time and it was time
for chapel so we went in and had
prayers and some verses from the
Bible and then the boys sang—My!
but it was a splendid sound.
Then what do you think? They
introduced me and said “Aunt Julia”
would speak to the boys! Why, I
couldn’t think of a living thing to
say—my mouth was so dry and my
hands were as cold as ice, but I
swallowed hard, and all of a sudden
the thought came to me thaY maybe
some of those boys were writers to
the Letter Box and sw my nephews,

your most excellent advice, so nat

know “a friend in need is a friend

have proved to be.
Although it is rather unusual for
girls, I am anxious to become an

me to leave home at present to take
the course.
Would you advise me to take a
mail course and can you put me in
touch with a correspondence school
of architecture.
I am sure I could learn for I al

who would give me any assistance
I might need with my lessons.

and then I felt like an old friend and
I told them so, and asked them to
write to us and tell us a lot about
the school, for I knew I would Itave
out the most important things, and
they smiled just like they would.
And now it was Faith cottage and
back to town.
You have to know Miss Berry to
really get the spirit of that heaven
ly' place, and you have to know the
mothering heart in charge to get a
true idea as to what that home
means in health and happiness to
the little ones within its fold.
It is just the snugglingest place,
and there are no more lonely, fright
ened nights, no more hungry morn
ings, no more wistful noons, just
a place where a baby can be its happy
self all day and go to sleepy town
in loving arms.
There are small chairs and little
tables. There's a look of babyhood
all about, and when I thought that
right here in this place of loveliness
mv children of the Letter Box would
through unselfishness support a
child at least one year, give that mile
on the road to better life, it seemed
to me that I had found the mes
sage that I was to bring back, an
inspiration to work for such a place.
And I touched the little chairs
and I picked up the baby toys—and
my eyes were full of tears, but they
were happy ones, because at this
wonderful place we could give our
help.
And I could see the words —
“And he that shall receive one
such little child in My name, re
ceiveth Me.”

Chapter XXIX
IT all came about gradually and
naturally. Everything was
natural at last except •that
Betty let me keep Frankie,
even after she knew and loved him
for her own child. • I never knew
anything more generous than this,
for Betty grew to adore her little
first born with all the longing of
her widowed heart. The fact that
she cared enough for me, her sister,
to make this sacrifice, gave me the
courage to make my sacrifice when
Ben, starved for love, finally turned
to her in earnest.
“The only thought of Ben which
I could not willingly yield up when
my sister married him was *3ie
memory of that prayer. I had to
hoard that in my secret heart—for
a while. But finally I saw that the
prayer was hers as well. Giving
as well as getting can make happi
ness. Any one can be happy, my
dear. But it must be gone about
the right way if it is to last. •
During the entire time Jean Hal
deman had talked Nora leaned for
ward, deeply interested, not speak
ing until the chapter of her life
history, opened by the nurse on im
pulse, had ended. Then—
“ But Betty—is she happy? You
made the sacrifice, not she. Has Bet
ty the right to expect continued
happiness?”
This was the phase of the situa
tion which had most deeply chal
lenged Nora’s attention.
And Miss Haldeman was quite
sure—knowing Nora’s story also —
that she understood the reason why.
“Yes,” she answered gravely.
“Betty is quite happy, too. Such
things seems impossible—at first.
She loved Will with her whole heart.
He gave his life for her and she
mourned him as he deserved. But
nature, my dear, after all, under
stands her own business. Time
finds few incurables. You, too, will
find it so, my dear, and It is the
best fortune I can wish you.’
Nora’s wide, dark eyes were fixed
on the picture of Roger, in uniform,
which stood on her bedside table.
But no tears fell and her expres
sion was quite inscrutable.
“Perhaps,’ she said. That was all.
A shade of disappointment show
ed on the sensitive face of Jean
Haldeman. It had been through no
idle Instinct of garrulity that she
had bared her heart to this other
woman, but because of a genuine
pity and a desire to help.
True to the strongest impulse of
her nature, she made one more ef
fort.
“I want to ask you, Mrs. Mason,
to try to tjiink of your own trou
ble, if possible, in a different light.
“In my work we come in close
and frequent touch with what has
robbed you—death. But we learn
that the' suffering with which we
surround it, the fear with which
most people regard it, belong to life
and not to death. What happens aft
er the separation of soul and body
is effected none of us really know.
But there is always hope. As for
myself, I believe that some day I
will once more see my mothers love
ly face. I do believe it.
Stopping just a moment to steady
her low voice, Jean added:
“But even could I not believe and
hope, I have learned to see her With
infinite happiness—in memory. I do
not invoke her suffering. I re-create
her glad, gay spirit, her courage,
her smile, her litle laugh. I owe
this to her. my mother, who had
much sorrow to see to it that she
lives in happiness in memory, at
least. If I could do this, why not
you ?’*
“I’ll try,” whispered Nora. ‘TH
surely try.”
CHAPTER XXX-
DR FINDLAY, who called on his
return to the city—he had
been out of town since his
visit —was quick to note a
change in the mental attitude of his
patient. ,
He congratulated Nora, then asked
politely after Rosalie, having forgot
ten (or had he?) that the hour he
chose was always given by the lead
er of the higher life circle ot a
group meeting.
But although the young man s ex
pression of regret at Rosalie s ab
sence was possibly not heartfelt,
Prolonging the Life
Os Silk Garments
With both wool and cotton high in
price, silk is being used increasing
ly for both outer and under gar
ments. Unless given careful treat
ment, the lifetime of a garment made
from silk is shorter than one made
from either wool or cotton.
The following suggestions for its
care are made in a recent bulletin is
sued by the United States depart
ment of agriculture on the selection
and care of clothing.
Silk garments should be brushed
carefully with a piece of velvet or
a very soft brush. Silk may be cut
or marred by too vigorous brush
ing. Spots may be removed in mucn
the same way as from woolen gar
ments. Silk garments may be dry
cleaned at home if one is very care
ful to use gasoline or othfc? lnUan }'
mable fluids out of doors where
there can be no risk of
or it may be advisable to send them
to a professional cleaner. Suds made
of neutral white soap or soap chips
and cold or lukewarm water should
be used for washable silk garments.
White silk shirts and waists washed
in such suds, rinsed in water of the
same temperature, wrapped in a bat.i
towel to absorb the extra moisture,
and then pressed xvith a warm iron,
will not turn yellow for a long time
Avoid exposure to strong light whilt
drying, and really hot irons, for
both tend to turn white silk yellow.
Silk must be pressed carefully; in
fact, irons should be used on it as
little as possible during either mak
ing or xvear. '
The dressing m new silk socks
and stockings tends to break the
threads: they should be washed out
before they are worn.
“Big Sisters” Club
Care for Kiddies
Hampden County, Mass., has some
thing new in the club line. It is a
“Big Sister' ” club for the girls who
care for younger brothers and sis
ters, and it has been organized by
one of the boys’ and girls’ club lead
ers in Hampden county!
The idea is to help girls who must
care for brothers and sisters under
5 years of age, to help them to do
it better and have more fun at it.
Contrary to most theories, the little
girls are in the club like to care tor
the babies. They say babies are
more fun than dolls. The real in
terest which they have in their
charges and the feeling of responsi
bility they have toward them makes
it appear that the Big Sisters’ club
is going to grow to a big thing in
this county.
When the idea of starting a club
of this sort was launched certain
girls who had made good in the home
economics and canning clubs of past
years—the clubs organized by the
United States department of agricul
ture and the state agricultural col
leges—were called together and the
plan explained to them. At the sec
ond meeting everyone came back and
brought three more. At the meet
ings this summer a Red Cross nurse
gave demonstrations to the girls on
the care and feeding of children.
Each girl who joins this club has
to promise to help in dressing and
bothing the family baby at least four
times a week. In addition to this,
she must aid in at least two of a
long list of other things that babies
require, such as specially prepared
food, occasional lulling to sleep, and
safeguard against ill health.
Nora was really sorry that her friend
was not at home. It was not that
conventionalities were being slighted.
The woman who came weekly to help
keep their well-managed little house
hold in order was there.
It was because of the interest
aroused in Rosalie by Dr. Findlay,
which, despite her self-absorption,
Nora had not failed to note. About
this interest Nora knew she was not
mistaken, though it did not in the
least accord with the kindly, laugh
ing manner in which Rosalie had
chaffed her about the young phy-
There were other things about Ro
salie to ponder, as Nora realized, and
perhaps Newton Findlay also. But
nothing in his charming ease of man
ner betrayed it.
With Nora, indeed, Newton Findlay
was a very different person from the
ambitious, keen-eyed, appraising sci
entist that Rosalie found in him.
His warm sympathy, for instance,
with the loveliness of Jean Halde
man’s unselfish nature —he showed
in his answer to admiring comment
by Nora that he knew the nurse’s
story—would doubtless greatly have
surprised Rosalie. There was about
Nora a frank comradeship, in pi
quant contrast to the outstanding
femininity of charm of which she
was so evidently unconscious. One
realized how far the arts of the siren
were from this lovely girl on whom
nature had so freely lavished inno
cent enchantments.
It was not until Dr. Findlay made
ready to leave that he referred to
the matter uppermost in Nora’s mind
—his promise to investigate the mes
sages received through Rosalie, and,
as far as possible, the news of Rog
er’s death which had come via the
ouija board.
“I am glad to note, Mrs. Mason,”
he said, “that you have kept your
promise to avoid dwelling on the
problems we discussed when I was
here before. So I must keep mine
and tell you what I have thought
out in the matter.”
Nora said nothing. Her midnight
ordeal, during which she had striven
with all the power of her soul to
find her husband in the Spirit-land,
was not for this man to hear, even
though he sought to help her. He
could not alter the facts. She had
called Roger, who did not come—
Roger who could not come—because
he was dead. That matter was set
tled.
What yet remained was. If pos
sible, to clear Rosalie of the hateful
doubts which obtruded themselves de
terminedly. Perhaps Dr. Findlay
could do this much. She sat silent,
listening intently.
“I must admit at the outset, Mrs.
Mason, that I do not believe in sur
vival, although many men in my pro
fession, far more eminent than I
can ever hope to become, are assured
that the spirit lives on and that per
sonality, individuality and Identity
endure. /
“I agree to this extent—that the
entity called spirit is probably not
annihilated. I have believed that
there is a continuation ever since
I first witnessed that dissolution of
soul and body which we call death.
“We know what becomes of the
body. It is never utterly destroyed,
but in returning to the earth from
which it came, identity is lost—ut
terly. And I cannot get away from
the logic of the analogy, as related
to the soul.
“Just as the body again becomes
part of the earth mass, so, I fear
—I say fear, because I xvould give
much to feel it was not so—does
the spirit go back to the ,great spirit
mass, call it what you will; eternal
mind, cosmic consciousness, God.
whatever it may be. One can form
no definite conception of the nature
of this all-embracing spirit cosmos.
It is idle to speculate concerning it.
“But it does seem to me that in
some such way the spirit is reab
sorbed, just as the body is reabsorb
ed by mother earth. Personality,
identity are no more. It is not a
pleasing prospect, for to us it means
the utter loss of those we love. Im
mortality, when reduced to terms of
mere continuance, with all individual
ity swept aside, cannot console us
in the least.”
(To Be Continued.)
What Makes Doughnuts
Absorb Fat in Frying?
That fat absorption by fried bat
ters and doughs will vary greatly in
amount on different occasions, that
the more flour there is in a dough
the less fat it absorbs in frying,
that reducing the time of frying
lessens fat absorption, and that fry
ing doughnuts under fat requires
less time than when they are floated
in it, are some of the results dis
closed in a long series of experi
ments which the experimental kitch
en of the United States department
of agriculture has completed recently.
Twenty pounds of dough can be
so made up and fried as to take up
ten pounds of fat in frying or so
made u pand fried as to take up only
one pound of fat. Doughnuts made
with plenty of sugar, butter, and
eggs, absorb more fat than those
which are less rich. The more flour
incorporated in the dough, the less
the fat absorption, but sometimes it
is at the expense of the quality of
the doughnut.
The longer doughnuts are kept in
the frying fat, whether because the
fat is not hot enough or because the
doughnuts are too thick, the greater
will be the amount of fat they will
take up. At 185 degrees C. the tern
perature fat should be when dough
nuts are put in, three minutes will
suffice for cooking those which have
been rolled to one-fourth inch thick
ness if the doughnuts are allowed to
float in the fat. If doughnuts are
forced under the fat during the fry
ing, the experiments made prove that
better doughnuts will result with
less expenditure of time and fuel.
Dough rolled to one-fourth-inch thick
ness can be cooked in one and one
half minutes by this method at a
temperature of 185 degrees C. This
method of submersion was found to
reduce the cracking during frying and
the consequent fat absorption.
