MAKE YOUR OWN
HAIR TONIC
4 SPECIALISTS ADrzcE.

In a recent issue the New York Herald
published a special article on the care of
the hair, in which was given the formula
for a homemade Hair Tonic, which was
highly III for its remarkable
hair-growing properties, as well as for
stopping falling hair. revitalizing the hair
roots, destroying the dandruff germ and
restoring gray hair to its natural color.
This article was of special interest to me,
as the formula was one which myself
have prescribed in countless cases with
most astonishing results. / remember one
case In particular in which / prescribed
it for a man who had been bald for many
years, and in less than two months after
he began its use his head was completely
covered with a luxuriant growth of rich
glossy hair, thus proving that hair can
be made to grow on a bald head, notwith
standing the opinion of many persons to
the contrary.
For the benefit of those who have not
seen 1t before l give the formula herewith;
Six ounces of BAY Rum, 2 ounces Lavona
de Composee, one-half drachm Menthol
Crystals. Dissolve the Crystals in the
Bay Rum and then add the Lavona de
Compose; shake thoroughly and apply
night and morning to the roots of the
hair, rubbing into the scalp with the
hnger-tips. This preparation contains no
color1ng matter, but restores gray hair TO
its natural color by It's action on the hair
roots. If you desire it perfumed add one
teaspoonful of To-Kalon Perfume. which
combines perfectly with the other ingredi-
ents and imparts a most pleasing scent.

EDITH HELENA AND Mr.. KREIDLER
CHARM IN THE OPERA THAT'S

Unpleasant as is the theme of Masse-
nets lyric opera That's" n its de-
velopment, there is a charm to its sac
charine melodies and Its smoothly
progressing passages hat draws one
back again to hear it just once more.
And after a summer showered with
the inanities of comic opera vaudeville,
which should nave been allowed to rest
in peace where they lay buried, it is
good to have ones musical pulse
quickened by the stimulant of a worth
while composition.
To the old opera-goer, %epicurean as
to a|uricular taste, and jaded, large
doses of Massenet prove ~clogging to,
the appetite. While he has bowed little
to the dictates of the French school,
to the initiated there is a monotony
in his alluring softness. He never
startles, and yet, on the other hand, he
is never at a loss for adequate express
sion. And to the casual opera-goer he
is a delight.
The story is not that of That's, who
captured the heart of Alexander n
induced him to deeds of folly at Perse-
polls. but of a hetaera of Alexandria,
in Egypt. Her wantonness aroused
the pity of a young priest, who deter
mined to convert her to a religious
life. After being houted and laughed
at he was finally successful, and she
entered a convent, but on their jour

BACHELORS HONEYMOON"
MAKES LAUGHS AT PROCTOR'S.

THE Bachelors Honeymoon" with
which Mrs. Una Abell- Brinker and
stock are closing the season
at Proctor's Broad Street Theatre, is
one of the most entertaining and
laugh-producing plays seen there this
year.
The ludicrous situations which arise
from the efforts of Benjamin Bachelor,
who marries Margaret Arbuckle, an
actress, to keep the fact from his sis
ter, Miss Minerva, who, by his fathers
will, controls the family purse and is
also his moral guardian. Bachelor
also is trying to keep from his bride
the fact that he has two daughters
by a former marriage. The bride dis
covers at the home of her husband
DIR. Schwartz, to whom she was once
engaged to be married. and who Is
much in love with Mr.. Bachelors
daughter. Seeing Mrs. Bachelor, and
not knowing hat he is married, he
believes thai he will have to keep his
promise and marry her-more compli-
cations.
The leading role is taken by Mrs.
Brinker, who is well supported by
Scott Siggins as Bachelor. Miss Anne
liz Mayborn takes the character of
Minerva, the sister, in a very satisfac-
tory manner Joseph CRANKY, as DR..
Schwartz, was very good. and his in
depreciation of the role was frequent
ly applauded.
1t was announced last evening that
Mrs. Brinker would return to Proc
tors with a stock company next sum-
nler.

Aston, New York, when she appeared
to sing for the Professional Womans
League. She had dressed in a hurry,
she explained afterward. Her costume
was described by a reviving listener
as a gasp and a shrug of the Shout
ders. There vas a deal of discussion
whether her garment was blue or white
and gold. 1t was eventually decided
in favor of the blue, as there wasn't
enough of it to be both white and gold
All this, however, is to be outdone
this winter. 1t was generally believed
hat she might go to the other extreme
and emulate the Esquimau his sea-
son as somebody gave her forty-fve
pairs of silk stockings before she had
sailed last June. But Mary has the
original mind.
If Mary will take a layman's sug-
gestion for a high grade flimsy and
filmy costume. there can be nothing
classier than her own aura, visible
to theosophists and described by them
as a nebulous haze in the form of a
distinct blush gray ring. This seems
to fulfil all requirements.

Amidst adequate scenic environ

in appropriate costumes, the Lyceum

STATES
HAS GREATEST OF
FIGHTING SHIPS
New DreadnOughts 0utrank
Those of Great Britain
and Germany.

NEW YORK, Sept. 12.-The arrival
here of the new American dread
nought Utah, to Join her sister ship,
the dreadnought Florida, now nearing
completion at the Brooklyn navy yard.
again sets the scales in motion of the
relative position of our American sea-
fighters as compared with the navies
of the other great powers.
While naval experts concede hat
Great Britain has the largest aggre-
gate of fighting ships, with Germany
and the United States in a close race
for second place, yet it is equally con-
ceded by these experts that the two new
American d~readnoughts now here out
rank in size and strength anything
ahoa in the British and German
navies at the present time.
The American ships have a displace-
menf of % 1000 tons, as against the
original dreadnought of $4,000 tons
They also take the lead over the Della
ware and North Dakota, 10000 tons
each, which have heretofore held the
lead of big-gun ships in the American
navy.
L. s. and Germany Second.
The two new American dread
thoughts, besides leading the ships of
all the great powers in point of size,
also bring Germany and the United
States nearer together for second
place among naval powers. Among
naval experts the original Dread
nought has become the accepted unit
of fighting efficiency. Counting the
Dreadnought as a unit of 100, the
American battleship Delaware and her
sister ship, North Dakota, have a
| ratio of efficiency of ITO each, while the
Florida and Utah have a ratio of 125
each. These ratios for American
d~readnought ships aggregate SO, as
against an aggregate of about 200 for
Germany, so that Germany and the
United States are separated by only a
few points for position of second place
among naval powers, based on the
Dreadnought as the unit of fighting
strength.
Coincident with the arrival of these
two leaders among dreadnoughts of
the great powers, the keel was laid
yesterday of the new s~uperdread-
nought, New York, $1,000 tons, which
outranks in tonnage anything thus far
built or under way in England and
| Germany. The largest British ships
under construction are those of the
King George class, $4,000 tons. and the
largest of the new German ships build
ing are $4,000 tons. The British de-
signers are planning the Queen Mary,
of 90, 900 tons, but she is not yet
actually under way.

also to review the fiscal systems Of sew

said. 1.-The influx Of gold is as great as
the output.
NO other country in the world controls
az large q quantity OF gold as ours, AND
no banking institution or treasury has as
much of It in its vaults as the United
States Treasury. The remarkable thing
about this condition is that apparently
no effort Is made by the Treasury to keep
gold in this country. II desire to OBJ
