Beautiful Hair Comes
With Dry Shampooning

Dry shampooing always has been and
always will be popular with the woman
who takes pride in long, abundant and
with so much of the inconvenience and
bother accompanying washing the hair
eliminates the long drying hours and
abolishes the danger of catching cold
one wonders why soap and water, eggs,
etc, can find any followers whatever.
Dry shampoos certainly stimulate the
growth of hair. Just mix four ounces of
growth Of hair. There can be no doubt
as to that. Just mix four ounces Of
therOx, sprinkle a tablespoonful Of this
mixture upon the head, brush the pow
der well through the hair; do this two or
three times a week for a while and see
the results for yourself. This will keep
your hair light and fluffy. and beautifully
lustrous. II corrects the conditions of the
scalp that cause hair to become stresked,
dull. co1orless, coarse and brittle.

BAG VOTES USED
BY SUFFRACETTES
Scheme is Simple One-JuSt
Give Away the Bags
NEW YORK GROCERS
ASKED TO USE THEM

NEW YORK, JUN 21.-The 10000
grocers in New York are face TO face
with the suffragists, it became known
yesterday. It is the first time they
have ever tackled that kind of a prob
lem or that that kind of a problem
has ever tackled them, and many
of the tradesmen are in a worse state
of terror over the new complication
than they have been at any stage of
the crusade against short weights by
the Commissioner of Weights and
Measures.
The whole trouble is this-the suf-
fragists have asked the privilege of
supplying free bags to the grocers-
free bags for sugar. free bags for
pickles, prunes and parsnips and free
bags for everything, including eggs
and mackerel-canned mackerel, of
course. These free bags are to have
suffragist notices printed on them,
and in this way it is hoped TO carry
the equal rights propaganda into
every house in the five borOughs.
When the housewife goes to extract
a ham or a bar of soap from the bag
in which Il was incased by the grocer
she will be confronted by the printed
legend:
Vote for Women"
Many Brooklyn grocers, in their
eagerness for free bags, accepted the
offer Of the Suffragists and now they
are in hot water with many OF theiv
customers-old bachelors and others
who are strangely opposed to women
suffrage. In alarm the grocers
