FAMOUS FOR BEAUTY
. OF Her HAIR
Mrs. Esther Emery Has Hair Which
Reaches to Her Knees. Was Once
Threatened with Badness.
Tells How She Made
New Hair Grow.

People say l have the most beauti-
full hair in the world" says Mrs. Es-
Their Emery, now visiting in he city.
Il don't know about that, but certainly
| am proud of my hair, for it has grown
so in just twelve short months till now
1T reaches my knees. Last year it was
anything but beautiful. l thought I
was growing bald. A year ago my
hair was thin and scraggly and coming
out at an alarming rate. Little bald
spots appeared all over my scalp,
which was covered with dandruff and
itched like fury all the time. / cannot
tell you how many hair tonics l tried
to save my hair and make it grow
again; Some of them helped by taking
out the dandruff for a while, but it
came right back again and my hair
grew thinner than over.
My success is no secret and I think
that any man or woman can do the
same with their hair if they will per-
severe as [ have done. A friend, know
ing my condition, sent me a clipping
from The New York Herald which ad-
Vlsed people who were growing bald to
use a prescription consisting of s OF.
Bay Rum. 2 OF. Lavona ode Composse)
and Il DIR. of Menthol Crystals. I got
these things from my druggist and
mixed them myself. / allowed the
preparation to stand several hours be-
fore using. Then L Piled 1t each
night and morning, rubbing right into
my scalp with the finger tips till the
skin fairly glowed. The results were
l~hlhleulate. Wnen / combed my hair
next morning only a few struggling
hairs came away instead of the hand
full was accustomed to gather. The
dandruff left me this time for good,
Tor | have never seen a speck on my
head since. In less than a week tiny
little hairs appeared all over my scalp
and these grew so rapidly that soon L
looked like a different woman. They
have kept right on growing until they
are as you see them now. A physician
has told me that Lavona contains the
pure juice of a rare South American
shrub that possesses marvellous quail
tiles for forcing a growth of hair and
certainly after my own experience I
can we'll believe it. Did I use more
thar the first treatment? oh, certain

drug store and have s OF. put up at a
time. It lasts about a month and costs
very little. Tn not going to stop any
way until my hair reaches the floor"

SUFFRAGE NOTES

Sunday Minneapolis Tribune: The
Minnesota Suffrage association regards
with favor the growing practice show
ing appreciation of motherhood
through the observance of Mothers
Sunday, which is celebrated today. At
a meeting of the state executive COM
mittee Wednesday at the West hotel,
the subject was discussed and it was
decided to request ministers interested
In suffrage to give recognition to the
Importance of the suffrage question in
their reference to Mothers day. This
will doubtless be done in a number of
churches today, for several ministers
are pronounced suffragists. according
to Mrs. Helen Camp Thomson, chair
man of the State Suffrage association

es. In regard to the mothers, they
agree with d North Dakota editor, who
wrote recently, w are hardly using
mother right now, when we ask her to
make a good citizen out of our boy
and at the same time refuse to let her
know what citizenship means to her
self" 1t is proposed to hold the next
convention of the National American
Woman's Suffrage association in Wash
ington the first week in December,
simultaneously with the opening Of
the regular session of congress-. AS
this is contrary to the established Gus
tom Of the organization, a referendum
vote of all the state associations is
being taken. Minnesota, through its
state executive, favored the plan un-
a~nimously. There is little expectation
of general consideration of the suf-
frage bills pending in congress dur
ing the special session, but the suf-
fragef forces are planning strong and
aggressive campaing work during the
regular session. This will be started
very impressiyely by the national con-
vention which, eve before the days of
popularity that have come to the
cause, was universally. respected and
recognized as a forcefuI. able and dig
nified deIiberative body that set a high
standard for other wornen's organiza-
tions.
