Preserves Natural
Color of the Hair
From woman's National Magazine,

ANY woman can postpone for years
the time when her hair becomes thin
and gray. 1t is a mistake to shampoo
frequently with soap and water, as that
tends to make the scalp scaly and
hard and the hair dull and faded.
"The hair will respond quickly to
the proper home treatment. Put in a
fruit jar four ounces of orris root and
four ounces of therox. Shake until
we'll mixed once or twice week
sprinkle a little of this powder on the
head and brush it thoroughly through
the hair.
''This dry shampoo removes dirt, dust
and dandruff from the scalp, and leaves
the hair fresh, sweet and clean. Ihe
therox helps 60 grow beautiful hair and
preserves it's natural color"

PASSED FROM THIS LIFE
Mrs. John LakingS.

Herald, Hurley, S. Oak: The COM
munity was shocked Friday morning by
the sad news that Mrs. Lakings was
dead. She had been i'll with pneumonia
for week but few realized that her
condition was critical.
The funeral took place in the Pres
byterian church in Hurley, Monday
afternoon, Rev. J. E. Spencer being in
charge assisted by Rev. S. G. Odds of
the M. E. church. The church was
bright with cut flowers and potted
plants and many floral offerings covered
the casket. A choir, composed of sing
ers from the different churches, rendered
special music appropriate to the &C.
casion. After the exercises the remains
were laid to rest in the Hurley GENE
terry.
Maria Motley was born in Mineral
Point, Wis, July 10, 1858. Here she
grew to womanhood and on Sept. II,
1884 was married to John Lakings
Three years later, in the spring of 1887,
they moved to Hurley and this was her
home since that time. She is survived
by her husband, three daughters and
two sons, all Of whom but Roy were
with her during her last illness. Her
six sisters and four brothers are liv-
ing six of them still residing at Min
eral Point, Wis, and the others at Red
field and Frankfort, this state.
Mrs. Lakings was \ loving and faith
full wife and Iaother, ever sacrificing
herself for the comfort and happiness
Of those around her. Through years of
hardship and struggle of new country
she cheerfully did her share and more
and now that beautiful home and all
that makes farm life desirable were
hers it seems especially sad that she
could not be spared for many years en-
| ioyment of the comforts her labor and
love had helped to prepare. To her
neighbors she was ready friend and
was helpful and generous to all with
whom she came in contact. Those who
mourn her loss are many and to the
sorrowing husband and children the
fullest measure Of sympathy Of the
community is freely offered.

Magazines for the Public
library

The library has never been able to
afford to subscribe for periodicals for
reading room use, although it is very
desirable that few of the leading
magazines should be in the library for
current reading and for reference on
current topics.
On account of limited space, only the
certain magazines most needed for
reference and reading can be accepted,
such as the following:
American, (already given.
Atlantic.
Century.
Golfers weekly, (already given.)
Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1910-03-17

Cosmopolitan.
Everybody's.
Harper's.
McClures, (already given.)
Outlook.
Review of reviews.
Scribner's.
Worlds Work.
If Mineral Point people who subscribe
for any of these magazines and do not
wish to keep and bind them, will bear
in mind the needs of the library and
donate their magazine, it will add
materially to the library's resources.
The periodical should be sent prompt
ly at stated times, if possible no later
than one month after date received.
