Every woman prizes luXuriant
hair" says Mae Martyn, in the san
Francisco Bulletin, and many find
that much depends ON shampooing.
Various preparations are used for this
purpose. but few are free from in
jurfors ingredients. and the result is
thin. straggly hair and itchy scalps.
"a simple and inexpensive shampoo
mixture can be made at home by dis
solving a teaspoonful of canthroX in
teacup of hot water. This is
poured on the scalp and rubbed until
latherins freely, thea tn hair rinsed
carefully and dried
Nothing SO quickly promotes a
healthy conditioner the scalp as a
canthroX shampoo. and its use is GER
tain to produce glossy. luXuriant hair.
Care should be taken to get an orig
inal package ot canthroX."

Then always have i bottle
of. Sirolin at hand, and take
it regularly in cold or damp
weather, and whenever you
have been exposed.

LONDON-The harvest Of the pres
ent year has been one of the shortest
harvcsts within the memory of any
British farmer, and though the esti-
mated total of the crop Is less than tho
average for the previous ten years, still
the quality and weight Of the grain arc
considerably better than have been ex.
perienced In this country for many
years past and this excellence has the
further advantage of being general
over the whole country. The new bar
ley In particular is of very superior
quality.
The great feature of the present har-
best Is that there has been scarcely any
change of conditions, and none that
have affected adversely the caring,
Towering, corning and ripening of the
grain.

According to Seattle dispatch of
October 9Th, Captain Martin Taafe
and Chief Engineer Herbert A. Tuck
er of the Pacific Coast Company's
steamer Ramona. which was wrecked
on Spanish island reef Alaskan wat
ers, September 10th, were placed on
trial today on charges of negligence
In the matter of the disaster. United
States Marine Inspectors Deering and
lehners so decided following a pre-
liminary investigation. The charges
against Captain Taafe, made public
this afternoon, are violation of Fed
eral statute In proceeding at full speed
In dense fog, unskillfulness In try
ing to navigate In the fog In the chan
mel he sought, negligence in not re-
curing proper posting of soundings
and distances In the logboOk of the
ship. The negligence with which the
chief engineer was charged was In
not closing or attempting to have
closed the watertight door In the after
bulkhead OF the engine-room to check
the water coming from this direction,
and In not using all possible means
at his disposal in endeavoring to re-
lieve the vessel while she was rap
idly filling after striking a reef where
She became n wreck
