TO SHAMPOO THIS WAY


To-day fewer women than ever be-
fore depend on the hair dresser for
shampooing.' writes Mrs Mae Mar

reason for this" she continues. is
because of the almost general use of
canthrox for cleansing scalp and hair.
"A teaspoonful of canthrox dis
solved in cup of hot water is enough
for good shampoo, This should he

Rev. S. B. Purves to Cincinnati.

The Minneapolis papers of last
week contained the announcement
that Rev. Stuart B. Purves, for six
teen years rector of Holy Trinity
church in that city. had accepted a
call to the pulpit and headship of
the Episcopal cathedral at Cincinnati,
Ohio. Mr.. Purves came to Redwood
Falls nearly twenty years ago-his
first rectorate, if we rightly remem-
Der. Here he greatly endeared him.
self to those who came under his
ministrations. Within a few years
his talents in the pulpit and winning
personality as a religious leader had
attracted notice in localities higher
up in resources and potential posi-
bilities. with the result that he ac-
copied a call to the city, where he
has since labored successfully. The
call to the metropolitan parish at
Cincinnati is undoubtedly another
advance step in the career of our
worthy young theologue Of twenty
years ago.
