QUIFFS and CURLS
H
'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 ́autumn and has been getting more and more
popular ever since.
Then there are the upward dressings which flaunt a qulff above the forehead and curl up from the nape of the neck. Some of these are turned
up Into little curly coronets right round the head and very pretty they are.
The Page Boy is ideal for hair which hasn't much wave-oer for a perm, which has reached its tail- end.
Also it can be successfully Achieved with curiers, as only the ends of the hair are rolled snugly under into the nape of the neck.
The rest of the hair is worn nearly straight, except for a flat gur) or two in front which can be made to behave with setting lotion and hairpins. It's a grand style for girls--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' lat, others come in rolls, as you see in our sketches.
All the newest coiffures are swept back from the forehead, but the a few soft curls around temples save a severe effeci.
Some people thought that the Pago Boy was going to lead to longer hair- there were even whispers of "bung" relitrang. but take heart-it won't happen.
None of these new dressings need the hair much longer than usual-and in Come cases it is 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 u perm, a good investment for that cheque they had at Christams.

'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 retnember is that currants and sultanas cannot swim. So, if you make your cake mixture too moist they will naturally sink.
This is the most usual reason for submerged fruit.
Again, if you do not get your oven hot enough at the outset, the same Ring will happen-only more zu. Not only the fruit, but the whole cake will sink, and never rise again.
