Rbstobins tub Colob op tub Haib.— When the hair loses color it may be restored by bathing the head in a weak solution of ammonia—an even teaspoonful of carbonate of ammonia to a quart of water —washing the head with a crash mitten and brushing the hair thoroughly while wet. Bathing the head in a strong solution of rock salt is said to restore grey hair in some oases. Pour boiling water on rock salt in the proportion of two heaping tablespoonfuls to a quart of water, and let it stand before using. Ammonia, if used too often, makes the hair lighter, and if in a strong solution burns and splits the hair.
