For the Won an Who
Has Beautiful Hair
(New York Theatrical News

The beauties in the Anna Held
chorus are famous for their pulchri-
tude. Their coiffures add great
deal to their charms. How they can
manage such abundance of beauti-
full tresses day in and day out, keep
ing always the same well-groomed
appearance, is beyond the ken of fthe
average woman. But, listen while
whisper, these girls depend altogeth-
er upon dry shampooing to keep their
hair fine and glossy.
They mix ounces of powdered Or
ris root with punches of therox, and
they are prepared for a seasons sham
pooling. Once or twice a week they
sprinkle tablespoonful of this mix
ture on the head and then brush the
powder well through the hair. That
is all there is to it, and they have es-
capped the bother and discomfort that
accompany washing, rinsing and dry
ing the hair. together with the dam
ger of catching cold.
The wonderful results they achieve
with therox convinceS me that it is
the only thing that can grow hair,
for their hair is long and abundant in
addition to being fluffy and lustrous

HIS SMILE AN UPLIFT.
Taft Is Credited With Doing Much
Good on the Bowery.

New York, Dec. 15.-It was a great
day for the Bowery when President
Taft visited that famous thoroughfare.
1.-The presidents visit did more real
good than a years work by the mission
people," said one of the officers of the
Bowery mission today His smile was
an uplift and his words a torch of hope
to many hearts. There is not a soul on
the Bowery today that viii admit he
wasn't at the presidents side. Men
down on their luck say that the CHEEKY
words of the president infused them
with new life and a number of our APP
parently hopeless derelicts have found
themselves awakened and eager for a
chance to show their mettle. When 4
man like President Taft comes down
here and talks straight from the Shout

ONE MORE GERM FOUND.
Scientists Announce That They Have
a Death For 1t.

New York, Dec. 15.-Scientists in
the Rockefeller Institute for Medical
Research have discovered the germ OF
poliomyelitis, or Inflammation of the
gray matter of the spinal cord. 1t
was done with the aid of six monkeys.
1t also is reported that the dis
covery of the germ has been followed
by the even more important discov-
cry of a curative serum. In that
discovery the six monkeys also con-
tributed largely.
Those who profess to know the de-
tails of the work done by the
scientists in the Rockefeller institute
say it has been demonstrated that
the germ of the poliomyelitis is one
of low virulence. and that it only can
live and thrive in warm weather.
