DO SOAP SHAMPO0S
MAKE WOMEN BALD?

THE increasing badness of women
Is coming to be a matter OT extreme
interest everywhere" writes Mae Mar
tvn. famed beauty specialist, in the
Seattle Star. ''DeTmatologis:s recognize
the fact that most Women are troubled
with short. scanty. dull, "itsl@, spit
ting hair and dandTuT-sure signs of
neglect in caring for the hdir.
These conditions are often the re-
suit of washing the hair with soap.
TIL, alkali in most SOAPS Is too strong
fo- the hair, and causes it to becoIne
brittle, coarse, streaky, faded. and
scant.
The safest, reliable shampoo Is an In
expensive one, made from q teaspoonIH
of canthrox dissolved in a cup Of hot
water. It not only cleaases thoroughly.
but rinses perfectly and dries quickly
1t makes the hair soft, glossy and huny.
and those who use 1t regularly are never
bothered with dandruff. falling hair or
other scalp troubles"

TENNESSEE COAL
AND IRON CASE TO
Be RE|NVEST|GATED
House Committee Which Is
to Probe Steel Trust Will
Reopen Old Inquiry.

One of the things the House Commit
tee, which investigates the United States
Steel Corporation, will do will be to
make careful inquiry into the circum-
stances of the absorption by the steel
corporation of the Tennessee Coal and
Iron Company.
The investigation of this matter by
a committee of the House was one of
the things the trainers of the resolu-
ton had in mind.
Whether there ever was any iustifi-
cation for the course of the Roosevelt
Administration in permitting the absorb
ton without making a murmur about 1t
will be determined. That the absorption
could have been prevented under the
Sherman law was generally accepted as
true at the time, but following visit of
J. Pierpont Morgan to the White House,
the absorption was allowed 10 proceed
unmolested.
Those who believe that the panic OF
1907 was produced by the manipulations
of certain financierss have never been
satisfied either over the absorption OF
the Tennessee Coal and Iron Company
or over the investigation made into the
matter by the Senate Judiciary Com
mittee. That investigation was of d
perfunctOry sort. 1t was widely com
mented on at the time. 1t went up
apparently, to a certain point and then
stopped suddenly.
One of the men who could, undoubted-
ly, have told many interesting facts
was John w. Gates. He was heavily
interested in the company. He was
squeezed out of 1t, and II was gener'
ally understood he was anything but
pleased At the time of the investiga'
Mr.. Gates ought TO be summoned. Bu
he was not.

FOSTER LAW RULES VICTIM.

Special to Times-Republican.
Des Moines, Aug. 1.-THE story Of
the case OF the late NJ. B. Foster, of
Taylor county. life termer who died the
other day protesting his innocence, IL
Illustrates the fact that 1t so happens
that at times the technicalities of the
law or arbitrary rules of the courts,
operate to work apparent gross hard
ship upon accused persons. Rigid rules
Of laws do not always work to the ad-
vantage Of the defendant in criminal
cases.
Foster was convicted Of killing EN-
met Reed. At the time of the trial it
was stated that certain affidavits from
a man in Nebraska were on the way.
but the court refused to wait for them,
and on this account the supreme court
granted new trial. On the second tri-
al a certain link was needed in the
evidence and this was supplied by
man named Howard. who testified to
a certain conversation had with Foster.
thus fixing Fosters proximity to the
place Of the crime.
When second appeal was taken Of
the case 1t was shown to the court
that after the trial OF Foster, the man
Howard had been convicted of per-
jury in giving his testimony as to the
conversation because at the very time
he said he was talking with Howard he
was In the penitentiafy. But the courts
held that because this proof Of perjury
not received in time 1t could not be
considered.
Foster appealed to the legislature for
permission to be pardoned, but the leg.
islattve system OF considering such
matter never did work out we'll, and he
was turned down. Two years ago he
laid his case before the parole board.
This week he died.
