cold douche, and dried quickly with hot towels, but not near a fire or artificial heat.
While the scalp is glowing from the friction, the "tapotage," which consists of fast tapping with the inger tips, is carried out. If the action is worked alternately from wrist and finger joints, it is quite possible to do this for oneself without becoming unduly exhaust- ed.
Where the reduction of the natural oils has caused dryness and the hair has become, brittle and split at the end, the finger tips should be dipped in olive oil and well worked over the scalp under the hair, with even pressure, be- fore the "tapotage,"
In extreme cases a strengthening lation of one ounce of cantharides mixed with six ounces of castor oil and acented with еди de Cologne may replace the olive oil.

Simple Exercises.
Massage and simple exercises can put these little faults to rights. Extend the arms straight in front of you, clench the hands and turn the wrist slowly from side to side, as far as it will go, then bend back and downwards to the fullest ex tent.
Next place the palms of the hands together, with the fingers fitting exactly one over the other, and with the left hand push the right hand as far back as it will go. Repeat with the opposite movement. Too thin wrists can be massaged into shapeliness, using almond oil as the lubricant. First, stroke the wrist with the ofled fingers, start- ing the movement at the fingers and ending at the elbow, then massage the wrist only with a rotary movement with the palm of the hand, cóncluding always with the stroking movement.
