REFORM AT THE TONES.


Another picturesque bit OF New

rapidly by that industrious young
woman, Mrs. Katie" Davis our new
commissioner Of corrections. She

Which of these two plans do you think

will never lack for enough dishes Or
enough dining-room furniture. but when
the time comes for better dining-room
furniture and better dishes the ones she

herr to do? There are some brides who
would go to the furniture store and buy
a dining-room suite cheaply made and
in bad design for SIS. This suite would
comprise, possibly, a brightly polished
table. six cheaply made chairs, a buffet,
and china closet With SO she might

decided on a blue and brown color scheme

HOW OFTEN TO SHAMPOO
IN HOT WEATHER

The heat alone would hardly increase
the need for extra .shampooing, though
perspiration leaves more impurities on
the skin Of both body and scalp, but in
the warm weather We indulge in more
out-of-door life, which brings dust and
dirt in greater quantities Frequency Of
shampoos must be finally decided by the
individual and the best rule is Keep the
scalp and hair clean" To keep the hair
bright, clean and fluffy in warm weather,
shampoo with canthrox, which is not
makeshift but made for shampooing
only. The scalp and hair will not only
be clesnsed from dandruff and excess
oil. but wholesome, healthy condition
will follow. A teaspoonful of canthrox,
package Of which costs little at any drug
store, dissolved in cup hot water is
ample for the thickest growth Of hair
These exhilarating canthrox shampoos
make the head feel good require little
time or labor and give to any hair a

color.-Adv.

ARE YOU A PENDULUM GIRL?

We all number among our acquaint-
ances one or more Of the pendulum"
type of girI-she who swings this way
or that and is forever asking for our
advice.
The habit does not change with the
married state. The girl who dallies
with decisions in her teens makes a wife
with her whims and wants.
When he proposes to take her to the
theater she says: oh, that will be love-
ly. Where shall We go? To the opera?
No, don't care for Wagner. Oh, no; not
to Hamlet that's too intellectual. You
think the musical comedy tiresome-but
the music is awfully pretty. Oh. very
well, if you decide that way"
And when, at the end of the evening,
II the husband has not the appearance
Of a man who has radiantly enjoyed
himself, she says with acidity:
We'll, why didn't you go to the opera
If you wanted to? I'm sure it was for
you to choose.
The girl who asks a hundred opinions
invariably gives credit or blame in the
wrong place. And she loses all power to
decide for herself and stand by her own
reasoning.
You must be your own guide if you
want to make good" Do your own
thinking, your own choosing. and your
own work.
Don't be always undecided. Settle each
little problem as II comes along with
quick thought and prompt action. Use
your own reasoning powers.
The next time you find yourself say
ing, ''Oh, dear, what shall do" instead
of turning in a fluter to your nearest
neighbor, just try the result OF asking
yourself. You will soon enjoy your new
found capacity.

Marie Louise de Berry, one Of the
most striking figures Of the court Of
the French King in the early eighteenth
century. possessed all the faults of her
age and all the faults of the closely
bred Bourbon race to which she be-
longed. She was the daughter of the
Due d'Orleans, son Of Louis XIV, who
was regent Of France during the mi
nority of Louis XIV, and through the aid
OF a group OF intriguing courtiers she
was married at a tender age to a cousin,
the Due de Berry. a grandson Of Louis
XIV.

Astrology reads this as an unfortunate

morning Venus is in beneic aspect. but
Uranus and Saturn are adverse. In the
afternoon, while Mercury and Jupiter are
friendly, Mars exercises malefic power.
1t is not a favorable day for love af-
fairs, even though Venus holds sway,
for Uranus and Saturn may incline to-
ward fantastic or eccentric persons. The
young should beware of the Establishment
Of the old.
The rule is not good for partnerships,
especially those concerned with litera-
ture. Many suits among playWrights and
novelists are predicted.
Journeys are subject to bad influences
especially those that carry travellers I'M

portation by electric power. An accident
