The appearance on the market of
new home grown potatoes. the first Of
fered by local growers, has had no ef-
feet of lowering the market as yet and
grocers say potatoes will be no
cheaper until the New home crowns
appear in larger quantities. Fifty
cents a peck must be received in or

to the same as 21a cents the pound,

For Soft, Silky, Fluffy
Hair, Use Oatmeal
fFrom Beauty,s Mirror.l


The value or oatmeal as hair and
scalp cleanser has long been recogn-
lied, but the difficulty Of getting it in
fine pulverized powder form. with bran
eliminated, has deferred many from US
ing it. Now that q caxined oatmeal
compound can be obtained at the drug
stores, at trifiing cost, this is destined
to become the most popular shampoo.
A delightful refreshing and cleansing
shampoo may be had by stirring
spoonful into a cup Of hot water and
rubbing the liquid thoroughly into the
scalp. The hair should then be care
fully rinsed. This makes the hair unu-
sually fluffy, soft and glossy. 1t pro-
notes healthy condition OF the scalp
and a luxuriant growth of hair.
The principal objection to most
shampoo mixtures !s their large per-
lsentage Of alkali, which causes hair to
split. break and lose Its lustre, drying
| up oily secretions and Irritating the
scalp. The alkali produces copius lath-
err. The caxined oatmeal compound
makes little lather. much like an egg
shampoo. ADV.

Barrie's fairy play, Peter Pan" 1t is
pretty late in the day to attempt to in
troduce Miss Adams, who is recognized
as the most popular actress on the
American stage. OF Mr.. Barrie, the
Scotch novelist and playwright. and of
Peter Pan most people have heard.
Barrie is revered in England and of all
of his successful works Peter Pan" is
looked upon and regarded IS the flow
err 1t was first produced in London
nine years ago and each year since
then it has been revived at Christmas
time and always with increased sue
cess. During the last holiday season
the fairy play was given in London
Berlin and New York and it promises
TO never grow old or. lose its popular
ity. Miss Adams was first seen in
Washington in October, 1905, and her
success in it as the boy who wouldn't
grow up has become matter of the
atrical history. Great as has been the
success of the play abroad it has
known still greater success in Miss
Adams keeping in this country. For
a long time there was an insistent
demand that Miss Adams revive Bar
rie's immortal fantasy and it is in an
swer to this demand that the actress
is at present making her transconti
mental tour in the work. AS is known
Peter Pan" is a fair story con-
structed with great skill by one who
knows all about the stage, about chill
| dren and about grown-ups. 1t has
| been said that if one has never been a
child. never dreamed Of fairies, never
chased redskins in his Examination or
killed pirate while hiding under the
sheets, he will not appreciate Pete.
Pan" But If he has been real child
with healthy imagination he will just
revel in this play that deals With the
spirit OF boy VINO always wanted Il
remain young. The work calls for g
! large cast and an elaborate production
! both of which have been carefully
given to it.
