DO SOAP SHAMP0OS
MAKE WOMEN BALD?

"The increasing badness OF women
is coming to be a matter OF extreme
interest everywhere" writes aMe
Martyr, famed beauty specialist, In
the Boston Telegraph. "Dermatologists
recognize the fact that most women
are troubled with short, scanty. dull,
brittle, splitting hair and dandruff-
sure signs OF neglect in caring for the
hair.
These conditions are often the re-
suit of washing the hair with soap.
The alkali I'm most soaps Is too strong
for the hair and causes IL TO become
brittle, coarse, streaky. faded and
scant.
"The safest, reliable shampoo is an
inexpensive one made from tea

cup OF hot water. II not only cleanses
thoroughly but rinses perfectly and
dries quickly. II makes the hair soft

There have always seen an admir-
able degree of cheerfulness and
healthfulness.
To be sure. there is nothing par
ticularly romantic, picturesque, or
poetical about splashing suds or dish
water. But there is something sub
timely beautiful and sacred associat-
ed with helping to build a happy
home. Success or failure is often due
largely to the right or the wrong at
titude In this respect.
AS a teacher of domestic. science,

sistent and the most skiHful efforts
possible to lead my students 10

household task has dignity and i'm

formed not only with patience, but
also with pride. And I have had the

to admiration.
Furthermore, as is rather striking
ly suggested by the accompanying
photographs, many forms Of house
work may be done out of doors and
will contribute greatly to the de-
velopment of womanly strength and
beauty Sweeping, churning, ironing
baking, and other forms of household
activity, properly performed, are
healthful and enjoyable.
Then, too, where women wish, they
often have opportunity TO enjoy many
outdoor activities. And the woman
who rightly plans her work will find
time for different kinds of needed rec
reation, and for keeping in touch with
the important affairs of the world.
That Is one thing every woman ought
to strive to do-to live as broad and
full OF life as possible.
Finally, by all means cultivate a
substantial appreciation of the digni-
fed responsibility and the glorious
privilege of helping to make n home

Dry Feed System for Chickens
Spreads; No More Wet Mash

The principle of dry feed Is good
one and is being adopted by poultry
men everywhere. II conforms to ma
ture, as all fowls in the Wild state
live mostly upon grain, seeds. nuts
and grasses, while bugs and insects
form their animal food. II partridge,
quail and other wild birds thrive on
such fare. why shouldn't the domestic
hen?
By carefully conducted experiments
II has been found that chickens
raised and fed on the old system OF
wet mash do not make so rapid or so
plump a growth as those reared on
the new OF dry feed system. The wet
mash " fed In too great quantities Is
left sour, and chickens eating this are
bound to be injured by II. Evil re-
suits follow and the flock Is hampered

mash or grains do not sour and can
not possibly injure the flock, says A

EASY TO ACQUIRE
YOUTHFUL COMPLEXION

ct ia 30 easy to acquire a smooth,
rosy, youthful complexion that no
woman need despair" writes Mrs.
Mae Martyr, beauty expert, In the
New York Chronicle. But In doing
so, one must not use face powder, as
1t enters the pores-enlarges them,
causing dull. sallow, rough complex
ions and eventually wrinkles.
Much better than any face powder
Is an inexpensive lotion made by dis
solving four. ounces spurmax In one
half pint hot water, then adding two
teaspoonfuls glycerine. This lotion is
