Proper Care o6 Hair
and Complexion

The worry, and bother of wearing
hair-nets and wells to make the hair
stay up and conceal a dull. "stringy," :"
unkempt appearance can easily be
avoided by stopping shampooing with
soap. The free" alkali in soap irritates
the scalp, makes the hair streaked, dull
coarse. and brittle. Shampoo with a
teaspoonful of canthrox dissolved in a
cup of hot water and the hair will al
ways be light. fluffy, and easy to do up,
besides looking decidedly neat. This
shampoo lathers abundantly, dries
quickly. stops itching scalp. and cleanses
as no other shampoo will. The luxury
of extreme cleanliness which comes
from the use of this shampoo has made
it so popular that many of the best
llairdressers now It use 1t exclusively
1t is inexpensive and can be bought at
any drug store
To whiten and beautify face, neck
and arms, dissolve four ounces Of spur
max in a half pint witch hazel or hot
water, adding two teaspoonfuls glycer-
inc. Apply this lotion freely and II will
tone up the skin wonderfully and quick
ly. It makes the skin soft and smooth
and will remove that shiny. muddy look
which is so annoying. This lotion will
be found much better to use than face
powder, as II does not rub off easily like
powder nor does 1t give the face that
powdered look" This spurmax lotion
is excellent for removing and prevent
ing freckles, chapping, and roughness of
the skin.

MARINES ARE DUE
AT SANTO DOMINGO
Naval Transport, with Commis'

To-day.

The naval transport Prairie, with Spe-
cial Commissioners w. T. S. Doyle and
Brig. Gen. Frank Mcintyre and 80 ma
rines on board, is due at Santo Domingo
city to-day The special commissioners
will at once begin steps looking to the
readjustment of the disturbed state of
affairs in the republic which is respon-
sible for their journey to the island.
Advices received here state that the
custom-houses on the Haitian-Dominican
frontier have been reopened, and that
conditions along the border have I'M
proved considerably. 1t was the situation
along the disputed boundary between the
two republics, and especially the closing
of the custom-houses at Dejabon and
Commentator. which led to the sending
OF the commissioners to Santo Domingo.
1t is believed here that the announce
ment that the State Department had de-
cided to take vigorous action has done
much toward clearing up the situation,
and tempering the ardor of the revo-
lutionists. 1t is not expected that the
marines will be landed unless 1t Is ab-

Washington Society Awaits Start
of Season in Exclusive
Club Theater.

Washington society is preparing for
the opening of the Playhouse. the Capt.
tars most exclusive club-theater. which
is scheduled to occur on November l. On
this evening Mrs. Burleson. wife of Rep
resentative Burleson. of Texas. will pro-
duce a one-act play. which. 1t is said.
will possibly shock Washington society.
Mrs. Burleson last season presented a
play which met with much success.
Preston Gibson. president OF the Play
house. also will put on two or three one
act pays, and II is declared that other
notable social leaders have spent much
of their time during the summer months
writing plays which will be produced this
season at the Playhouse under the di-
rection of Mr.. Gibson. There also will
be a one-act play by Bernard Shaw.

cially for the opening night and who is
expected to visit Washington this win
ter. new wireless play by Mr.. Glib
son which will be produced in New York
before the opening of the Playhouse also
will be produced here on the opening
night.
Aside from the galaxy of fine plays
which society will put on there Is much
excitement in elite circles regarding the
character of dances to be produced at
the Playhouse this summer. Opinion is d.
vided regarding the horse trot' and
other similar dances. and while many of
the social leaders agree that these dances
are immodest. others say they are not
in the least exotic and that they COM
bine grace with health.
The opening of the playhouse on No
vember 4. earlier than usual. is due to
the fact that society that has gone
dramatic mad" so to speak. is engag-
Ing dates way in advance. Other social
bodies also are after dates and Mr.. Glib
son feels that II is necessary to open
early II all are to be accommodated.
