Why Straight Hair Won't Stay curled.

why Straisht HAIR WON'T stay Curled.
The growth of hair in healthy
scalp is from eight to ten inches a
year, growing faster ir summer than
in winter. The hair stretches in wet
weather and shrinks in dry, which is
the cause of artiicially curled hair be-
coming straight in moist air. If you
will use the curling irons during the
summer be sure to supply the follicles
with little extra nourlshment in the
way of brilliantine to make up for
that which the heat abstracts.
The two following recipes furnish
the best possible emolients, the first
of which is non-greasy: Lavender
water, one ounce; glycerine, one ounce;
clarified honey, two ounces; rectifed
spirits, four ounces.
First mix the honey and glycerine
together, then add the lavender water
or eau -de-cologne, and last of all the
spirits.
The second recipe is intended tc
give more or less glossy appearance
to the hair as we'll as to strengthen it,:
Castor oil, two drains; rectified spirits,
five ounces; altar of roses to perfume
tinture of cochineal, two drains.
The best way of using these prepa-
rations is to put few drops into the
palm of the hand and then rub the
bristles of the brush across it, and so
apply to the hair.-St. Louis Globe
Democrat.

THE production of pig iron in
June shows an increase of $4,000
tons over the month preceding,
while stocks during the same peri
od have decreased $4,000 tons. This
decrease is amazing, considering
the increased supply, and shows
that the consumption must be at
the rate of 100000 tons per an
mum, or very close thereto.

AUCTION OFF NOMINATIONS,

r. p. Scott, n millionaire resi-
dent at Cadiz. Ohio, who is an as
pirant for congressional nomind-
ton, seems to have hit upon n
plan to dispose of convention wran-
giles, and in the end elections. His
plan as he states it is as follows:
81 propose that the nomination be
put up at auction and be knocked
down to the highest bidder. | will
lead off with $4,000 bid for the
place, and, to beat the Garfield law
which forbids the excessive use of
money in political campaigns, will
not give anything to get elected,
but if elected, will donate the sal
AIRY as it comes due by sending
four students from each county to
college, giving them $500 each, or
$3.50 year, or if any county pre-
fers, it may have two students at
$500 per year.
eff congressman should pay
for the honor why not do it in a
legitimate way and render a great
good to the community instead of
prostituting our ideas of liberty
and constitutional government by
buying votes. If we want bossism
and corruption let us be honest
and cut sham out. Let us get to-
gether and say we are set of pol
luted scoundrels; that we like it
and prefer to keep it up. If you
do this | will agree to put more
genuine corruption into the can
vass than any other man or suffer
defeat at the polls"

THE STATES DILEMMA.

Governor Thomas seems to be
in decided predicament in the
matter of calling an extra session
of the legislature. Since Attor-
ney General Campbell has decided
that state institutions cannot issue
certificates of Indebtedness, Presi-
dent Baker says the university will
have to close its doors unless an
extra session of the legislature is
called to provide some means of
raising sufficient revenue for the
maintenance of that institution.
1t is said that every day men,
bers of the Legislature call upon
the governor to urge an extra ses-
sion OF to protest against it. 1t
may seem uncharitable to say that
those who are clamoring for the
extra session are thinking of their
mileage and the 81 per, while those
who are opposed To such proceed
ings have business interests that
they do not care to neglect, but
the history of the besmirched
Twelfth will Justify such an infer
ence.
Yet, Notwithstanding, it begins
to look as if the governor must
make the call as last resort. Our
state institutions must not be
closed. 1t would be most dis
graceful act to turn the old, decrepit
soldiers out of their new home.
and to close the doors of the uni
versity would heap shame upon
the state. If n special session of
the assembly is the last resort, then
let it be called.

ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION.
The First Baptist Church Cele.
brateS its Second Birthday.

The First Baptist Church Cele-
brates its Second Birthday.
Considerable enthusiasm was
aroused yesterday among the mem
bers of the First Baptist Church,
the occasion being the second an
niversary of that institution. APP
propriate services were held in the
new church building in the after
noon in celebration of the church's
two years of prosperity, About
twenty people from Canon City
joined in the services.
AT three o'clock the meeting was
opened by singing the Doxology,
which was followed by an invoca-
ton by Rev. DR.. Maple of Tren-
ton, Missouri. A song and praise
service conducted by Rev. DR..
Harl of Canon was then rendered
after which the ordinance of bap-
tism was administered to little
Beatrice Hyde.
DIR. Maple then made brief adj
dress, things being followed by holy
communion.
After the celebration of the
Lords supper, the church roll was
called, showing mem bership of
eighty-three, a very favorable
showing for two years work.
AT six o'clock refreshments were
served in the back room of the
church, after which the program
for the evening was taken up.
After an opening song service
the meeting was addressed by Rev.
j. w. Crooks of Denver, on what
Baptist church stands for" The
speaker emphasized the fact that
it stands for the salvation of souls
and loyalty to truth, expatiating
at some length on these two points.
Rev. DR.. Maple followed by dis
cussing the general work of the
church.
Rev. DR.. Harl then gave talk
directed more especially. to the
mem mbers of the church. He COM
mended the pastor, Rev. Robt. d.
Graham, for the effort he had made
to build up the church in this
place, and congratulated him upon
his success, He touched upon the
fact of Mr.. Graham's leaving Flor
ence, and the loss it would mean
to the church.
Mr.. Graham responded in a fit
ting manner, and took occasion to
speak of the unfinished condition
of the work and to urge his people
to- continue their efforts with in
creased energy and greater zeal.
The entire meeting was success
and will no doubt prove an inspir-
alton to the members of the. Bap-
tist church to continue earnestly
the work they have commenced.

DRIVER BOYS STRIKE.

The driver boys at the Dodge mine
went out on strike yesterday and in
consequence the mines were unable to
work during the day. They complain
that the shortage of cars causes delays
during the day, and when cars are re-
ceived, they have to work overtime, for
which no pay is received.
The strikers held meeting in Foy's
hall. on Hampton street, yesterday af-
ternoon and appointed a committee to
wait on superintendent Loomis. 1t is
understood that they will resume work
today and have their committee pres
ent their grievances to the proper offic-
ials.
The strike will not seriously affect
the operations at the mine, as it is be-
lieved the boys wanted holiday yes
terday, and took this means of obtain
ing 1t.
