AIR styles are going in two distinct directions at the moment. There's the Page Boy Bob which, with its downward sweep, arrived in the early *aulumn and has been getting more and more popular ever since.
Then there are the upward dressings which flaunt a quiff above the forehead and curl up from the nape of the neck. Some of these are turned

very pretty they are.
The Page Boy is ideal for hair which hasn't much wave-or for a perm, which has reached its tail- end.
Also It can be successfully achieved with curlers, as only the ends of the hair are rolled snugly under into the nape or the neck.
The rest of the hair is worn nearly straight, except for a flat curl or two in front which can be made to behave with setting lotion and hairpins. It's a grand style for giris becoming, youthful and easy to keep in order.
Upward-inclined dressings are more elaborate, as they rely on the skilful placing of the curls. Some curls are flat, others como in rolls, as you see in our sketches.
All the newest colffures are swept back from the forehead, but 11 few soft curls around the temples save a severe effect.
Some people thought that the Page Boy was going to lend to longer hair- there were even whispers of “buns ' returning, but take heart-it won't happen.
None of these new dressings need the hair much longer than usual-and in Rome cases it in cut even shorter. Do remember, though, that if you want curls to be trouble-free you must have them properly tapered by the hair- dresser. Otherwise they are thick and too heavy to stay in easily.
There's always a rush to the hair. dressers for a permanent wave at this time of year. Many women consider a perm, a good investment for that cheque they had at Christmas.
But there is more in a permanent wave than merely fixing an appoint- ment with the hairdresser. Every perm, should be a completely success- ful affale, and if it isn't, the customer is generally to blame!
Most of those perms, which are either too frizzy or else depressingly Joose could have been a complete suc- cess-ff the uwner had taken a lttic trouble before the wave was done.

ante temperature. Curtous though it may sound, the condition of most hair Is actually improved by a perm., and it certainly doesn't deteriorate.
There's no doubt that the man who invented perming was the fairy god- inther of straight-haired women, as he made it possible for them to have their heart's desire-lovely, natural- looking waves which are unaffected by wind and weather,
One very successful process is done without a machine and no electricity is employed. It sounds like a miraclé, but the results show that deep waven and tight, well-behaved curls are pro- duced by this method.
As a very low temperature is used, white hair can be permed this way without a qualm, as there's no fear of It becoming discoloured.

ATURALLY, my dear Mrs. Wimblestraw, there is no remedy..
When fruit has once sunk to the bottom of a cake, it has sunk. Even a diver could not bring it to the surface.
The first thing to remember is that currants and sullanas cannot swim. So, if you make your cake mixture too moist they will naturally sink.
This is the most ustal renson for submerged fruit.
Again, if you do not get your oven hot enough at the outset, the same thing will happen-only more so. Not only the fruit, but the whole cake _will_sink._and_never_rise again.
It is most Important to put your cake into good heatTMfor a start,| reducing it afterwards to a steady, moderate temperature."
What do I call a good hest? Well, say, 450 deg., but for some of the thinner ovens which are in use to-day I would add another 50 deg.
