HOOPER ASKS THE
 ASYLUMS INSPECTED

Nashville, February 22.-1n addition to his veto of the Nashville charter bill on the stated ground of it's being inherent ly vicious'' and solely in interest of fin creasing the power of a political machine that has not used the power 1t now pos sesses in a manner to justify the enlarge ment of it's prerogatives and Jurisdiction
 and for the further reason that the bill did not provide for the. changes being submitted to the people. Governor Hooper since the legislature adjourned has ad- dressed a communication to the legisla- tive committee on charities offeripg a suggestion of interest He requests the committee to look into the capacity of the state asvlums for the insane to in- vestigate the extent that insane persons are now temporarily cared for in state iails and in case it is needed that the leg islature be asked for an appropriation for further and adequate asylum accommo- dations. He states that he is informed that for several years asylums have been overfiowed and fails in many counties have been housing the states unfortu- hates without proper facilities therefor.
 The state Confederate pension board has issued a statement to the effect that the recent passage of an act raising the appropriations for both veterans and their widows fails to afford the relief intend- ed and that as result of the individual increase. although the total sum Is ma terially augmented. the shortage would be something over $S6,OoO. leaving little for the last quarters checks. The amount provided by the recent bill Is s73O. GOO, $52O coo for veterans and s2l0,000 for their wives. The second session of the legisla- : ture will likely be asked to make good this threatened deficit or revise the meas ure in other respects more in accord with the wishes of the state pension board

For the Woman Who
 Has Beautiful Hair
(New York Theatrical News)


 The beauties in the Anna Held chorus are famous for their pulchritude. Their scoiffures add great deal to their charms. How they can manage" such abundance cf beautiful tresses day in and day out, keeping always the same wellgroomed appearance, is beyond the ken of the average woman. But, listen while I whisper. these girls depend altogether upon dry shampoo ing to keep their hair fine and glossy. l. They mix ounces of powdered orris root with 1 ounces of therox, and they Iare prepared for seasons shampoo ing Once or twice week they sprinkle a tablespoonful of this mix ture on the head and then brush the powder well through the hair. That lis all there is to it. and they have es- capped the bother and discomfort that accompany washing rinsing and drying the hair, together with the danger of catching cold.
 The wonderful results they achieve with therox convinces me that it is the only thing that can grow hair. for ltheir hair Is long and abundant in ad- dition to being fluffy and lustrous.
