What Cortelyou Has Done to Relieve
the Financial Stringency.

Washington, Oct. 30-President Roose-
welt was IN conference with all members
of his cabinet except Secretary Taft for
more than two hours yesterday The II
nancial situation was under consideration.
Secretary Cortelyou, although averse to
making any public statement on the sub
ject, views the situation with far greater
equanimity than at any time during the
last ten days. From the first he has not
hesitated to make immediate use of the
great resources of the treasury to check
the apprehension manifested last week
During the last seven days he has depos-
tied in the national banks sum approx
imating s5o.oOo,ooo, and since early in Sep
tember, when the secretary began his
weekly distributions nearly 100000 have
been deposited, which brings the amount
of public funds now in the national banks
up to over $215, ,O0O. 600, of which about $12,-
10000 has been deposited to the credit Of
government distributing officers. >
During President Cleveland's first term
very large amounts of public funds were
deposited in the national banks for the
declared purpose of relieving ing the treasury
have such large sums been paced with
depository banks to avert financial trou-

APATHY IN POLITICS.
New York Is Having an Unusually
Quiet Campaign.

New York, Oct. 30.-The present po-
litical campaign in this city has been
remarkable for the apathy which pre-
walls. All the noise and argument that
usually occurs before election is miss
ing 1t is an off-year insofar as election
excitement and interest is concerned,
due chiefly. to the fact that only minor
local officials are to be chosen and that
no issue Of Importance has arisen.
The only excitement of the campaign
so far occurred in Brooklyn last night
when Senator Patrick H. McCarren and
Timothy L. Woodruff, the leaders re-
spectively of the Democratic and Re-
publican forces of'that borough, met in
joint debate. 1t was an outcome Of a
public remark by Senator McCarren
that President Roosevelt was RESPONSE
BILE for the financial furry of last week.
More than 5000 persons heard the de-
bate, and the adherents of each of the
debaters went home satisfied that their
championS had won.

FOOD MAY BE CHEAPER.
Substantial Reduction in Prices Is
Looked for by Dealers.

Chicago, Oct. 30.-That the present
disturbed financial condition may
bring in its wake a general and sub
stantial reduction in the cost of living
is the talk among jobbers. wholesalers
and retailers of meats. eggs and other
food products. Some of them ex-
pressed the belief that a reduction of
10 per cent in the wholesale price in
M eats may be made within a few days
should the present money stringency
continue. Nearly one million cases of
eggs are in cold storage in Chicago.
For several weeks fresh eggs have sold
at 27 cents a dozen and the cooled"
variety at 23 cents.
In South Water street many dealers
are quoting the best creamery butter
at 26 cents a pound, wholesale. This
probably will cause a reduction in the
retail price of 35 cents to 80 and SO
cents a pound.

preventing such frights as they were
given last Friday and Saturday.

I A little oil. we hold, is necessary | to ali nair0ressing, anu we coutend that the natural oils are much better than the artificial ones. So we never take all the oil out of 6 woman's hair. and we do not very often use soap and water on the hair. Nc have a new shampoo which We con sider much better.
 We take some nice perfume, Q good toilet water or a home made cologne, and we wet the entire head with it. The hair is saturated from the roots to the tips. Then we tie the hair six iuches from the roots and braid it.
 This brings us to the seconG stage of the washing. which is a soap and water performance. We make a thin lather of scented soapsuds and we take tooth brush and go over the scalp carefully, dipping the brush in the suds and gently scrubhing the scalp, This in the hands of quick worker should not take more tfan seven minutes.
 'The third stage consists in rinsing the scalp with a fine needle spray without taking down the braid. When this Is done the hair is unbraided and sprayed from scalp to tip again with cologne.
 The patient :s now ready to have her hair drie15s, -hlt first we run over the scalp with an electric massage roller to make the scalp healthy
 'sThe drying is done by electricity, m there are various ways in doine
 t. We have an electric fan which

 "Jt Is much better than the old gas
 rocess. where the scalp was steamed F.fth g hot air current. The electric bsi' dryer ventilates the hair even B t dries it.
 'Fhe dressing of the hair is of course the most important thing, for .owever delightful a shampoo may ass it [ is not everything.
 "5'he home woman is content to eaten up her hair any way in the 5sck, while the front is hastily earlpd. but her hair is apt to look as though she had slept in it, We lg,wu upon anything Of this kind. We are very particular about 1 call, massage, and for this we have | ce tsin implement which we make E ,se Ives. It consists of two stout s1ips of rubber with some smooth wooden balls strung upon the rubber. W itll this we go over the scalp, t. Ing in the nape of the neck, the f,s shead and the bare places around l tl,s ears. if the hair at the crown sha head is thin we also go over 1 it with our rollers. This takes the place of electricity If there does not happen to be current handy.
 aMost domestic women get bald on top Of the head and in the back oi the neck It is from lack of care and from ioing up the hair in the same place always.

Bisbee daily review., 1907-11-24

The woman who wants her hair to stay young will massage the roots with her fingers tips at least once a day.
 We advise every woman to protect her curls in the wind. The woman who goes out with her hair ever So prettily dressed will come home in a very dishevelled condition unless she ties a veil over her hair. and before she nnts on tho vail she shnnid take the trouble of arranging each hair systematically and each wave with care.
 We pay great attenuon to our foundations. By foundations l mean the pompadour rats. the pieces which are part of every cosffure. It makes all the difference in the world wheth- CT your pompadour is stuffed with nice little waves that match your hair or with something that looks uncertain when cracks come in your coiffure.
 Let me say right here that the woman who has one set of curis and wears them every day makes a great IIii5stsss5z She zss5s5sst. ssss As ss four sets and she should vary them to suit her appearance and her dress. q have ore domestic woman among my clients. She is not beauty and is not extra young, but she certainly makes up charmingly. and she brides herself on holding her own with the rest.
 s'Her chief charm is her hair. She has the most delightful way of mak- ing her head look a mass of curls.
 This woman comes twice week to be waved. We give her the double French wave.
 This means one deep wave and two little ones; then one deep wave, and then two little ones. It is the nearest possible approach to the waves which nature kindly places in some peoples hair.
 By putting in this double French wave twice a week and by wearing veil on windy days and a net on pleasant ones this woman keeps her hair in a delightful state of natural waviness. But this is only the be- ginning of her hairdressing
 We made for this woman set of curls connected by puffs. There are eight curls and three puffs. These we fastened together so that we made q string perhaps six inches in length and almost as wide as long. Need less to say that the pUffs and curls matched the hair.
 Few home women realize the vast ] difference between cuTls that match the hair and curIs that do not. In l Paris Q French milliner sells you a little set of curls to go with your | hat, and she pins them on the side of the hat well concealed by the trimmings, yet so arranged that they peep out and fall upon the ! coiffure.
 These curls always match. Ii they do net originally match the hair dresser dyes them, or bleaches them. colors or tints them, as the occasion requires.
 Tt is entirely different from step ping into shop and taking any curls that may happen to be in stock l mention this merely as a sugges
 tion: Have your curls match you hair.

 with some household cares, she can not always take the time for al lelaborate coiffure, but she always ha
 time to toss her hair to the top o her head where she can twist it in soft, fiat, loose knot.

until they lie loosely all over her head and she makes her pompadour as big and as wayy as possible. When she wants to arrange her hair elaborately she takes the little strip of curls and puffs and pins it on the top of her head. over her own flat knot of hair Then with fancy tortoise shelf pins she spikes 1t in place all around
 Then she isi is;;iii:; cut cut tli iittiis euIiis so that they fall over her pompadouT and dance at the side Of her head !; and, with comb adjusted in the back, she is prepared. She knows that her ha.r is dressed for any emergency. She need not touch it again all day unless she wants to do so.
 We prepare dozens of little curIs for women who want to be pretty and we have the most fasciact' 'ng aay of putting on curls just to dangle above the right ear. Hat trimmings are lifted at the right side this year, and the curls seem to come in just right, with the right ear as {. sort of artistic point of vantage.
 We make a specially of she wayy pompadour. It is very easily ar. ranged, for it is pinned at the top of the head, and the hair is tossed over it. In case the hair splits the pompadour shows up looking as pret ty as the natural hair, if not prettier | We also make special plans for tne woman who has a penchant Tor l parting her hair on one side.
