TALENT FOR TACOMA
A Bunch Of Good People Secured

Graves, Col. Ham, all
Stars

Last week a representative Of one of
the best Chautauqua bureaus in the
country dropped into the city and
from a list of over sixty, six stars of
the first magnitude in that line were
engaged.
John Temple Graves, the brilliant
editor of the Atlanta News, was en-
gagged for one day. Since the death
of Henry W. Grady no orator-journal-
list in the south is the peer of this dis
tinguished gentleman whom the as
sociation fortunately is able to present
to the patrons of the park this year.
Col. FL. w. Ham, another southern
orator, who spoke in the city last year
and was one of the best entertainers
who ever spoke in the city, will also
fill a date this year. His negro dialect,
songs and stories created a sensation
here and his engagement has been a
piece of good luck.
J.. Lorenzo Twickey, a chalk talker,
a novelty at the park, whose lecture
consists largely of pictures drawn be-
fore the audience with lightning like
rapidity, will fill two dates.
canton. magician, illusionist, Slight
of-hand man and mind reader is of a
class Of entertainers not heretofore
represented at Tacoma and will ap-
pear. A man in this line must be
pretty good to be taken up by bureau
to fill engagements with chautauquas.
DR.. Charles A. Eastman, the cele.
brated Sioux Indian scholar and writ.
er, is in the list and South Dakota
people should listen to the doctor with
great interest as he talks of his owr
people, native to these prairies.
Sidney Landon, known to the chau
tauquas the country over as "Happy

Clipping and Combing.

Another important point which is Oft

Of premature grayness.

A sun bath brings out its color and
beauty as nothing else can.
When sunshine is not available, fam

diseased. if II is afflicted with dandruff
or is too dry or too oily, it is more bene-
fetal to apply suitable tonic when Civ
ing massage.
One of the commonest and deadliest
enemies OF the hair. and one of the
most neglected, is dandruff. It may
arise from sluggish circulation, i'm
proper care of the scalp. mental strain,
and many other causes, but it is perfect
~ durable if properly treated.
If the Iegions afflicted with dandruI
could only be brought to realize the
dangers arising from II. 1 am sure there
would be a smaller percentage of poor
hair, faded hair. and bald heads. AS
soon as it begins to appear take steps
/ TO rout it.
The combination of scalp massage with
a good dandruff remedy and frequent
| shampooing is the best treatment. and
will invariably effect a cure If perse-
vered in. Cleanliness is as essential to
the hair as to the rest of the body, es-
pecially as dust and other impurities
are very apt to collect in it. The periods
betweens wa shings must be regulated by
the necessities of the case and by com
mon sense.
AS a general rule the hair should not
be washed oftener than once in two or
| three weeks. However, I know of cases
where once week seems not to do ans
harm. but rather to keen the hair in
good condition. The effect Of sham
pooling must be carefully watched and
| the condition of the hair be taken into
consideration in order to decide this
point. Oily hair, of course, needs more
frequent attention than dry hair.
A good method in general is as fol-
| lows: Dissolve any good soap in water
until ii is soft enough to be rubbed into
/ the scalp with the finger tips, care being
taken to avoid scratching with the nails.
| Enough hot water is added 10 make
! good lather. a few drops OF ammonia
may be used in the water, especially If
the hair be oily More than this is apt
to crack the hair Or a teaspoonful of
borax may be added TO the first basin
Of water.

Usefulness of Massage.

One Of the surest ways of stimulating
the scalp and keeping up the amount of
circulation it needs is scalp massage.
Even ten minutes daily devoted 10 this
simple exercise would save many a case
of falling hair and premature grayness.
Loosen the hair and part it in the mid
die.
Place the hands on either side of the
part with fingers little separated. press
gently and firmly into the scalp. at the
same time pushing the fingers forward
and making wheel-like movements.
Don't forget that the object is TO loos-
en- UP the tight scalp. Nine times out
of ten the person afflicted with falling
or diseased hair is found TO be what is
called scalo-bound.
Where the scalp is in a healthy condi-
ton dry massage only is necessary, but
If through neglect the scalp has become
