To Keep the Hair
Light and Fluffy

The proper care of the hair does
not require a woman to scour her
scalp with soap and drench her hair
with water until shampoo, includ-
ing drying the hair, takes the better
part of the day. In fact, authorities
say that the less soap and water
used on the hair the better, as the
alkali and moisture tend to make
the hair coarse, dull and brittle.
If you want to keep the scalp
clean and the hair light and fluffy,
try dry shampooing. Put in a quart
jar, or any other handy container,
four ounces IF powdered orrs root
and four ounces of therox Stir and
shake until thoroughly mixed. A
beautiful cleansing powder with a.
delicate perfume will be the result.
Sprinkle tablespoonful of this
mixture on the head and then brush
it well through the hair. This brings
out the natural color of the hair,
makes it soft and glossy, and if
continued regularly, tends to make
the hair long and abundant. for it is
natural hair grower-Advt.

OLYMPIA, Wash. Feb. 17.-Gov-
ernor Hay will refuse to appoint H.

q naturaliZed citizen.
The refusal is made on the
ground that Ohnick. being a Mon
golian, is not a citizen of the state,
though he may be naturalized. This
is based on the decision of the
state supreme court, which barred
one Yamashita of Tacoma from
practicing law though he had been
granted his citizenship papers, the
court ruling that his naturalization
was illegal.

The semi-annual meeting of the New
London County Medical society at
New london Thursday was most in
terestIng session of the men learned
in medicine. and all who attended it
were benefited by what they heard
from the gentlemen who read papers
and those who discussed them. DIR. P.
j. Cassidy of Norwich read an excel
lent paper on infantile paralysis which
mad been prepared by DIR. j. G. Stanton
of New London, who was not able to
be present. 1t told of that disease and
us symptoms and traced it's origin so
far as it can be traced in the light of
facts now at hand. 1t is believed that
the disease first appeared in Finland,
Sweden and Norway, later in New
YORK and Boston. then in Minnesota
and later in the east. There is a strong
belief that the disease was brought
to this country by Scandinavian emf
grants.
Dr's. Graves and Perrin discussed
the paper very fully and in a most in
terestlng manner. especially in their
description of the disease. The dis
ease is often not discovered until the
paralysis has taken place because the
symptoms are so slightly developed.
Very young children are the victims in
a great majority of cases.
DR.. Black exhibited a map of New
London on which were defined the sec
tons where the disease had occurred.
He declared that there had not been
two cases in the same family in New
London. though fourteen cases had
been reported.

DR.. P. j CASSIDY READ PAPER
In Absence Of Dr. J. 6. Stanton Who Had Prepared
it on Infanti1e Paralysis-Local Doctors Present.

DR.. A. W. Nelson reported the first
case last February. One case occur
red in house where there were thirty
children residing. and the child that
was i'll with the disease had been sick
several days before the disease was
recognized. Still there was no other
cases of the terrible malady in that
house. Notwithstanding. it is an in
fectious disease. The percentage of
deaths is about one in ten. Some of
the survivors are permanently para
lyzed.
DR.. Nelson states that infantile pa
ralysis is not the same disease as cere-
bro spinal meningitis.
AS for the cure for the disease ply
sicians are uncertain. but the spraying
of the nostrils of the throat where
children are sick or where they have
been exposed with peroxide of hydro
gen is beneficial. AS far as the opinion
of physicians goes mercurials are es~
pecally beneficial in this disease.
Among the first symptoms of the dis
ease are pains in the ear and jaw.
There We're about twenty five doctors
present at the meeting, representing
New London. Norwich, Stonington,
Groton. Mcntville and Mystic.
