CARE OF. THE HAIR.

A request has come in concerning
the care of the hair. All hair cannot
be treated alike as there is differ
ence in the amount of oil secreted,
the presence of dandruff and the gen.
eral health of each individual, which
has great deal to do with it's growth
and beauty. OF course there are ex-
captions to every rule and many
weak people are seen with a luxuriant
growth of a "woman's browning
glory"
A few general directions may be of
benefit. 1t is absolutely necessary
that it be kept clean. Once every
two or four weeks, according to its
condition, it should have a thorough
shampoo. A professional hair dresser
known to ME uses a bit of melted,
pure tar soap. This is rubbed onto
the scalp, after which the hair is
washed with warm water followed by
colder and the last rinsing with the
coolest obtainable. The scalp is
thoroughly massaged with the finger
tips during the process. The tips of
the fingers are placed upon the scalp
firmly then moved in rotary direc-
ton. This moves the scalp and
stimulates the hair follicles. Warm
towels are used and the hair dried.
The egg shampoo is considered the
very best. 1t is said that any one
using it from childhood will not be
troubled with premature gray hair.
1t is almost useless to stop that after
years of neglect. The egg should be
beaten and rubbed directly upon the
scalp. Care must be taken not to
have the water too hot when egg is
used as the hair will be stiff If the
scalp is dry, or dandruft present,
much may be done by rubbing little
bit of yellow vaseline upon the scalp
the night before the shampoo is to
be taken. This will be taken up in
such a way that enough will remain
to keep it soft after the washing.
The vaseline is one of the best agents
known to promote the growth of hair.
1t also puts the scalp in such a con-
dition that dandrutf will not form if
used long and regular enough. Cas-
tor oil mixed with tiny bit of al
cohol, enough to cut it, is also excel
lent.
After the shampoo, some kind of
tonic should be used. There are
many desirable kinds and any honest
duggist will recommend the kind you
need whether to promote growth or
cure dandruH.
If person is apt to take cold,
much may be done to keep it clean
by putting thin old stocking over
the hair brush and brushing a small
strand at time. The cloth takes up
the dust and removes the superfuous
oil. Strong sage tea to rinse the hair
helps to keep it dark and help its

Cooking Causes Cancer.

New York; statement by DR..
VIM. Mayo that the prevalence OF
cancer is perhaps traceable to present
methods OF cooking, was one OF the
salient opinions in a maze OF technic
expressed at the American Surgical
associations annual convention here.
DR.. Mayo is a delegate from Ro-
chester, Mimi, and president Of the
association. He explained that can
Ger of the stomach formed a third of
all cancer cases among civilized peo-
pies.
"Is there some fundamental fault
In the food or in the cooking OF civ
ilized men that gives such a prepon-
derance to procancerous conditions
in the gastric region?" he asked.
Among the lower animals cancer of
the stomach does not form nearly
such a large proportion Of the total
number OF cases."
DR.. Mayo said the amount OF meat
consumed undoubtedly had some
thing to do with the prevalence OF
cancer.

fact that Mr.. Jones was elected to

position among which is former Pro-
bate Judge Fuller. who is now circu-

at the hands of Governor Haines, but

DISCOUNTED.

Pursuant to the laws and in &C
cordance with the usual school cleo
ton notice published by the county
superintendent. they had a school
election over in Shoshone district
last week, and Just because the vot-
ers OF the district by a vote OF &c to

portionment OF $4,000. the Shoshone
voters OF that district. by intimating
that they did not understand the new
school law. and to make matters
worse and vent his spleen on some
one. the editor OF the Journal would
lay the blame on our efficient county
superintendent for not instructing
the voters of that district how to
vote.
This is the first intimation we have
had that a county superintendent Is
required to look up all the little de-
tails connected with an election in
any particular school district. and
spend the money OF the other tax
payers of the county in useless adj
vertising for the benefit OF that par
ticular district. We had presumed
that It was the duty OF the school
board OF these districts to properly
advertise any particular question
that they wished to bring before the
voters OF the district. and II the
board OF trustees OF the Shoshone
district were ignorant OF the law. II
was certainly not the duty OF the
county superintendent to instruct
them in It,

paper has fed so long from the pub

payers OF the county that the loss o
a few cents In the publication Of al

BETTER LOOK TO HOME.

While the government is interven-
ing In Mexico to protect the lives OF
Americans. 1t is evident that they
have as grave duty to perform on
their own soil. Over In Colorado.
there has been a strike pending for
some time among the miners In the
vicinity OF Trinidad. 1t eliminated
last week In general battle In which
several lives were sacrificed and
among them several innocent women
and children.
We are not sufficiently advised to
place the blame for this murder of
women and children upon either the
strikers or mine owners, but someone
Is responsible. and 1t is high time
that the government should step In
and take a hand in this affair. as 1t
seems that the state machinery is
unable to cope with the situation.
Did 1t happen that some OF the unfor-
tunate victims who lost their lives In
this skirmish were citizens of for
eign nation, would such nation not
be justified In interfering with the
government OF Colorado as we'll as
our nation interfering In Mexican
territory.
The bloody occurrence OF last week
has not only brought disgrace to the
state OF Colorado, but It has shocked
the whole civilized world and
brought disgrace upon the whole
United States.

life and property. says the Salt Lake
