A famous French actress-well
known in America-recently stated in
an interview: Nearly every woman
knows the excellent results that follow
dry shampooing, but too many depend
upon orris root alone to keep the hair
and scalp in good condition. Orris root
will not grow hair.
The best dry shampoo 1 know is
made by mixing ounces Of powdered
therox and ounces of orris root Sprin-
kle a little Of this mixture upon the
head and brush 1t thoroughly through
the hair. The true secret of a success
full dry shampoo is to distribute the
orriS and therox root through the
hair evenly; use a sitter top can If you
have it. Then don't spare the brush.
This treatment keeps the hair light
fluffy and lustrous, while too much
moisture on the hair and the alkaH in
most soaps tend to make the hair
coarse. dry, brittle and dull in color"

.ATARRH
A SPECIFIC BLOOD IMpURITY

Catarrh is a deep-seated blood dis
ease, one which no amount of local
treatment will ever permanently cure.
The beneficial effects of washes,
sprays, limitations, ETC., are only
temporary, and when left off the old
condition returns, because the blood
is infected with catarrhal matter and
impurities This impure condition
of the circulation irritates and in
flames the delicate mucous mem-
branes and tissues and produces the
well known symptoms of ringing
noises in the head and ears, mucous in
the throat, headaches, watery eyes,
partial deafness, sore throat, general
impairment of health, etc. This con-
dition will remain, growing worse as
long as the catarrhal matter is al
lowed to remain In the blood. Being
aspecihc blood impurity, there is only
one way to cure Catarrh, and that is
to purify the blood. Nothing equals
S. S. S. for this purpose. It attacks

Representative Hicks said that the
amendments offered by the election
committee were not Objectionable to
him, with the exception that he would
like some OF them explained. He ex-
planned that the secret ballot provision
contained by the bill had raised in his
mind a question of constitutionality

Wisconsin Supreme Court on that Sec

upheld The provision for 1t in the
Hicks bill is identical with the Wis

The amendments were then offered

are: That each candidate for office

against the blackbirds for eating corn
In the fields. so laws were passed Of
fering "a bounty of threepence dozen

the blackbirds were thus extermtnat-

immense quantity of worms appeared
in the meadows, which devoured the
grass and did great damage, the peo-
pie abated their enmity. for they had
observed that those birds lived chiefly
on these worms before the maize is
ripe. and consequently extirpated
them"
OF recent years the study of the re-
lationship of birds to agriculture has
revealed many facts which are having
decided influence In changing public
sentiment regarding many birds which
were formerly regarded as largely If
not wholly detrimental. The most
