wben Blond Hair parksns,

The damse with blond hair must
reconcile herself to the fact that blond
tresses need to be washed oftener than
brown or black hair, as the slightest
suggestion Of dust will give light glis
tening locks muddy tinge, which IL
the reverse OF beautiful.
A good wash for blond hair is given
below. DO not. however, use II ofteneI
than twice month, as II has tend
ency to make the hair dry and brittle.
After giving ones hair Its regular
shampoo and rinsing II should be wash
ed with a soda solution. then rinsed
and dried. This soda water is made
by adding an ounce Of bicarbonate OF
soda to quart Of boiling water. DO
not attempt to use this wash until the
water Is stone cold
Thus Is this bugaboo OF light haired
women vanqulshed.

WHY THEY SAY mo"

Proposals Of Marriage That Are Net
| Snapped UP.
| Why do women so often say "No" to
4 proposal OF marriage when they real.
! ly mean to accept It?
Some married women We're asked re-
Gently this delicate question: why is
| 1t that woman never seems to give a
man a definite reply 10 the question.
VIII you marry mef' until he has been
kept waiting?"
This provocative trait in woman's
character has been novelist's theme
for years, but no one has offered a
definite explanation.
Six married women confessed the
Ither day that not one OF them said
Yes" to the first offer Of marriage.
One said she was nurse before mar
rIage. and her husband was her patient
when he proposed
HE must have asked me ten times
to marry him before finally accepted.
Why? Well. one reason was that !
wanted to make quite certain that he
really loved me and that his affection
was not merely q sick mans gratitude
or simply due to the fact that ! was
the only girl he had seen for some
weeks.
"Of course from the first ] knew
would marry him. but forced myself
to make certain that he was In ear
nest"
The second wife said she had only
recently been married. II said No to
my husband twice." she said, "and
was actuated. | think. by a sort Of
foolish pride.
Il was twenty one years old at the
time. and knew practically no men
until the man who WAS afterward my
husband came to stay with my par

crease Of l6 cents per thousand over
prices received in 1912. A feature Of
the timber sale business in the states
reported on is the large proportion Of
small sales made. These were sales
to men of small capital to supply the
needs Of people living in or near the
national forests and to furnish business
opportunities to the small operator, in
pursuance of the avowed policy of the
forest service to provide first for local
demand before selling timber for trans
portation to distant markets. Only II
of the 673 sales covered by the report
we're for more than $4,000 worth Of
timber while 90 per cent Of the total
number consisted Of sales involving
less than 500.

fruit crop had been injured.
The company in making its defense
alleged that there was sufficient water

a valid defense if the water was not

Should the City Grant a 25-fear fran
ChiSe

The proposition Of granting a Is
year lighting franchise came before the
city council at its regular meeting on
Tuesday night September 9th by the
reading of contract submitted by the
Tumwater Light & Water Co. and the
proposition that the city enter into
such a contract. From such informa-
ton as we are able to obtain, the city
attorney being absent from the city at
this time, no definite action was taken.
1t is scarcely likely that the coun-
ell will take final action on such an i'm
portant matter as this without first OBJ
tanning some expression of opinion
from the taxpayers. When the matter
comes squarely up for adoption or re-
lection, if it ever does so come up.
this paper will discuss it from the
point of view Of the best interests Of
the city.

Railroads Want Assessments Lowered

The railroad companies Of the state
have united in asking the state board
of equalization for reductions Of as
sessments on their property in this
state TO the total of S38, 100000. In
a statement made TO the board by the
attorney for one of the lines il was
commended that the companies believe
their property is assessed at a higher
ratio on its actual value than is other
property in the state, that they object
to being assessed several million dol
lars on account of good will and pros
pective increase in traffic" and that
the board Of equalization has no right
to cause any property to be assessed
al an inequitably high rate to make a
source for great revenue to be pro-
duced. Figures were presented TO
show that real estate in various coun-
ties was assessed from 20 to IS per
cent. of its actual value, while the
railroads have never been taxed as low
as the highest ratio on other property,
while their assessment has reached as
high as sixty per cent.

C0nWCts Are Making Good

The first instance and test of the
new system adopted in Washington
for the treatment Of state convicts with
good records who have served within
one year OF the extent Of their mini
mum sentence, occurred last Tuesday
when thirty honor men, en- route to
a place on Hoods Canal to work out
the remainder Of their sentences in
the honor camp, started by Governor
Lister, were turned loose in Seattle for
the night, with instructions to report
the next morning to take their boat.
Every man kept his word. At the
time of their departure for the camp
the men were enthusiastic in their ap-
probation of the trust that had been
placed in them. No effort was made
to keep track Of them while in Seattle.
They weres attired in ordinary street
clothes and their heads were not
shaved.
