WOMAN'S WORLD

( (Continued from Page 2) Maori Warriors. To the many women who gathered in. the Town Hall to see tho Maori Reinforcements the occasion was one of tho most interesting and uniqjo of its kind that has yet been held in connection with our soldiers. The hall was crowded with onlookers m the galleries, tho floor spaco having been reserved half for the soldiers themselves and half for their relatives ■ and friends, who greeted them on their arrival in the lrall with hakas and the high-pitched prolonged wailing of tho women. Very trim and soldier-like the men looked as they sat-, row after row, with upturned faces, listening to the speakers, and so very young, some of them. Tho singing of the Maori Contingent song was unique, and to those who heard-the swelling voices, the perfect way in which they rose and fell together, with tho final triumphant buret at the end the effect was quite memorable. Her Excellency tho Countess of Liverpool, Mrs. W. F. Massey, and Lady Ward wero among those who occupied seats on tho platform, and a very interesting memento- of the occasion to Her . Excellency should be the presentation which was made her from the Maori Contingent, which, made of a shpllj Iliad distiuictly .warlike associations with it.

The Maori soldiers were afterwards entertained in the Concert Chamber, the arrangements and the waiting being altogether in the charge of their Maori friends in Wellington. Numbers of long babies were stretched across the room from side to side, and different relays of the men were entertained, the tables showing no lack of ■ colour, with quantities of crayfish, bowls of lettuce, and every variety of fish dear to tOie Maori heart. Mr. J. Dykes played the piano for the greater part of the time, and at the last "Tippeiv ary" and "Auld Lang Syne" was sung, and a haka was danced. The whole occasion was one in which the Maori women who were giving their men for the service of the Empire had the greatest sympathy and fellow-feeling of every woman present in the liall at the formal farewell.

The Practical Care of the Hair.—The hair; is the most determining factor in a woman's looks; yet-many a fine head of hair has been'spoilt for u'ant of attention.. Such apathy is wrong, for the hair is orio of woman's most valuable assets. Now, to start, wliy not call on or write Miss Milsom.

' Superfluous Hair is one of the most distressing blemishes .with which women ara afflicted, and hitherto there has been no permanent cure.
