NORTON GIRLS MAKE HIT.
Pretty Maidens from Northwest Kan
sas in Topeka.

Brains and beauty are said to be a
rare combination, but the five Norton
girls who will represent that town in
the mi-Centennial parade today are
there" with both. The Norton party
arrived over the Rock Island Monday
and visited the State Journal Office.
Judge and Mrs. L. H. Thompson are
their chaperones.
In the party also are ChristObal
Broqute, a native Belgium and near
millionaire who has large property and
other interests at Norton. He has been
in this country only five years, but
speaks English almost correctly and
tluently. Harry Marsh. whose father
operates the Norton electric light plant,
and Floyd r. Rankin, a former K. u.
boy who lives at Clay Center but who
is employed at Norton. make up the
party. The boys came along to sec
that Topeka men do not kidnap the
girls.
Two of the girls are newspaper wo-
men, They are Miss Nellie Conway, a
former K. U. girl. daughter of John
c. Conway, editor of the Norton Cham
p1on, and Miss Henrietta Duval, whose
father F. NJ. Duval, is editor of the
Norton Courier. Both girls assist their
fathers in the newspaper work and are
practical printers as well as bright
news gatherers. Good looking-of
course.
Miss Nora Mcmillan is a second year
student in the elocution department of
Chicago university. and is in line to
take up teaching work in the institution.
No. she is not just dying to go on the
STAGE but she has the looks and in
telligence to be an actress If she chose.
And it takes considerable of both to be
one. She is the daughter of Ira Nc
MILAN, Norton cattleman.
Miss Gay Darling is q popular pretty
Norton girl. It is said that she is a
descendant of Grace Darling the
heroine who rescued the crew of a
wrecked ship many years ago. The

Slighted Them.

Frank McIvor, of the Hoxie Sentinel,
and DIR. A. B. Jones, of Wakeeney,
have been suggested by the Repub-
hcans as worthy candidates for state
senator in the Thirty-ninth district.
There are those who say McIvor
wouldn't accept the honor because he
has cinch on the Hoxie postoffice as
soon as a vacancy occurs. He stands
close to Senator Bristow and Congress
man Young.
The friends of Archie Coolidge, a sue
cessful merchant of Smith Center and
native born son of the SunfloWer
state, are urging him to run for the
legislature in Smith county. He has
been so closely identified with his bJsi-
ness that they think to send him to
the legislature for term or two would
be a rest for him.
There is a custom in some parts of
the state-where two or more counties
are in the same senatorial district-of
furnishing candidates in turn. Many
think this is sheer folly, and that there
is no more sense in it than there would
be in discharging competent clerk in
order to give the job to somebody else.
Take, for instance, the Thirty-fourth
senatorial diStrict-conSisting of Ellis
worth, Lincoln, Russell and Osborne
counties. 1t was claimed that in the
last election the state senator belonged
to Lincoln county. The majority of
Republican voters looked at 1t differ
emily, which resulted in the election of
r. T. Fowler, of Russell county. There
is another custom in the minds of the
friends of Senator Fowler to the effect
that an officer who is serving one term
is entitled to a second term if his ac-
tions are approved by his constituents
His friends believe he made good dur
ing his first term, and they want to
return him the second time

PROPER WAY
TO SHAMPOO

In an address before a large audi
ence of beauty seekers today, Mae
Martyr, the famed authority on such
matters said:
Common sense teaches US that the
hair and scalp cannot be thoroughly
cleansed of dirt, excess oil and dam
druf without using water And yet 1t
is a common mistake that most women
make in using soap in any form for
shampooing The woman who sham
poos with soap soon notices her hair
losing its gloss, splitting at the ends,
becoming brittle and thin.
These troubles can easily and best
be avoided by using as a shampoo,
one teaspoonfu1 of canthrox dissolved
in cup of hot water. The hair will
rinse easily, dry quickly without
streaking, and becomes brighter and
fuffier Many hair-dressers have
adopted this shampoo with excellent
results. 1t seems to possess every
quality of a perfect shampoo New

economy in various lines, the conser-
walton of the wooden box is a ques-
tion of some Importance in view of
the very great consumption Of that
article for kindling wood.
It is also an indication of changed
situation of affairs to find railway Of
flcials much concerned about damage
to goods in shipment. The unnecessary
rough handling which goods receive on
railway trains, in freight houses and
baggage rooms is proverbial. and so
well understood that it seems almost
trite to mention the matter or even
comment upon it. For some unexplain-
able reason this is an evil that rail-
and any cne who did assume to re-
gard the question seriously has usually
done SO only to be laughed at. 1t hard
ly needs TO be said that better disci-
pline over all railway employees who
have to do with the handling of freight
or baggage could we'll be looked after
much more earnestly than it ever has
been, in a general sense, and to the
benefit of both the shipper and the
carrier.
The manner in which freight and bag
gage is handled by railway employees
in common everyday service is indeed
shameful, and apparently there are but
very few officials who have the courage
to take hold of the question with a
firm hand
Undoubtedly many shipments are
made in boxes, cases or crates too light
to withstand reasonabl handling. but
if railway managements wish to in
augurate q movement for educat ton
on this subject they may well begin at
home first. It is only common ex-
car doors upon platforms, because
some one is so indolent or so care
less as not to run a truck to receive

Nearly 500 New Industries on Their
Southwest Lines in Fiscal Year.
Progress in the southwest is denoted
in a practical manner by the rapid
changes which are taking place re-
garding Industrial operations The
Missouri, Kansas & Texas reports that
PAS new manufacturing plants were
started on the system in the fiscal year
ended June 80. Every branch of in
dustry is receiving attention along the
route. Interest in manufacture is
growing, while, at the same time, ad-
vancement continues without abate-
ment in all agricultural pursuits.
Though the southwest is an agricul-
tural territory, it is rich in ores and
minerals and it offers most of the nat
ural resources essential to manufac-
ture. Industrial opportunities are
mum erous, and investors are quick in
taking advantage of them.
The new plants opened on the Mis-
ital investment of $4,573,676, and they
Their naturalization is due largely to
the intelligent and aggressive work of
the industrial department, which de-
votes its time to the acceleration of in
dustrial progress at every town and
city along the line where there are
possibilities of development. The utiIi-
zation of agricultural products was the
most conspicuous feature of manufac-
turing progress during the year. Not

ROCK ISLAND IMPROVES BRANCH
Rough iowa Line Will Be Placed in
Good Condition.

Cedar Rapids, Ia. Sept. 12.-That
the Decorah line soon is to be inn
proved by the Rock Island railway is
certain, and it is now only a matter
of a short time when this line will be
made one of the best in this territory.
The Rock Island intended to lay
heavy rails on this line all the way
between Cedar Rapids and West
Union this year. No orders have yet
been issued to go ahead with the i'm
provment, and it is likely they will
not be issued this summer. The rails.
however, may be laid this winter, or
at least next spring. The road plans
to reconstruct the line by laying r.
pound rails. At the present time So
pound and 56-pound rails are used.
The line runs through rough, new ter
ritory.

Castoria, which as everyone knows
is a pleasant and effective remedy

and its reward has been the greatest

Using or appeals to ignorance OF

merit. All physicians recommend
it, and many, very many, prescribe

called in consultation. All good
family physicians say: Give the
