FOR THE HAIR
TWO “BRIGHTENERS" Lemons are slightly brightening, and will remove the oil from an excessively greasy' head. The juice or two or three lemons in a pint of warm water as a final rinse will suffice. An excellent brightener, which will bring out the golden glints in your hair and which is perfectly harmless, is made by mixing together two handfuls of elderflowers and one handful of camomile flowers, and placing in a quart of water and allowing to simmer. As tlie water boils away keep adding fresh water. When the flowers have steeped sufficiently, allow the water to cool, and then use on your hair as a final rinse. Bleached hair will require a rinse which will take the tangles from the hair, and this can be made by adding a tablespoonful op vinegar to one pint of water.
