LADIES' HAIRDRESSING
IN LONDON AND PARIS

When | was in Europe this year
found both cities so thickly dotted with
hairdressing parlors and hair goods

ever had time for anything but care of
the hair. Personally | was chiefly in
terested in finding really good sham
poo and | foynd that they never use
makeshifts but always some item made
for shampooing only, and was hap
PLY surprised when several inquiries
each brought the suggestion that our
own American made canthrox sham
poo is best They like it because in
addition to being perfectly safe and
making the hair free from all dandruff,
excess oil and dust, it is so simple to
get canthrox from any druggist and
Just dissolve a teaspoonful in a cup of
hot water, knowing you will then have
a preparation that makes the hair not
only entirely clean but so fluffy that it
appears very heavy. Conthrox stifnu-
lates the scalp to healthy action, max

September 29-Catherine McAuley.
lCoPnEht. lsli.l

Copyright. 1914
The story of Catherine McAuley reads
like that of a medieval saint and not
at all like a real, fesh-and-bIood woman
Of the present day. She was born in
Ireland in the late eighteenth century
and at very early age was left an
orphan. During her girlhood she was
brought up in an unsympathetic family
near Dublin and during these difficult
years she turned>to her religion as the
only source of comfort and encourage
ment. At eighteen she was readopted
by a family named Callahan. who pos
sessed great wealth and deeper SYM
pathies with the lot of the poor orphan
girl Whatever may have been Cath
crimes ambitions at this time she de-
voted her entire time and love to the
family of her foster father for the next
seventeen years. Then when she was
thirty-five her foster father died and she
became sole heiress to his large for
tune. Now thought her friends,
Miss McAuley can marry. She has
long sacrificed all thought of her own
pleasure for the sake of her foster
father and the reward of her patient
years has come with this fortune"
Then much to every ones surprise Miss
McAuley bought some property in the
most squalid neighborhood of Dublin.
Here she built a house and began at
once her work for the betterment Of the
poor. She gathered around her six de-
Vout young women and after training
them in the work she had begun she left
them in charge of the house in Dublin
while she and one companion passed a
few years in the novitiate of a neigh
boring convent in Dublin. Having re-
celved the religious dress Miss McAuIey
and her companion returned to their
home In the poor neighborhood and un-
dertook the training of the six faithful
young women who had remained in
charge.
1t was in 1881, when Catherine was
forty-four, that these eight devout
women formed themselves into the Order
or Mercy. To the usual threefold vow
OF pover4, celebacy and obedience they
added tourth-namely, to devote their
liVes to the service. of the sick and
ignorant. Catherine, The founder of this
celebrated order, lived but ten years to
see the outcome of her good work These
ten years she spent In untiring work of
organizing and establishing branches of
the order. The result was that within
hfty years there were lis branch houses
OF the order in various parts of Ireland
and sixty in Great Britain. Since then
many other branches of the Order of
Mercy in all parts of the world carry
on the good work for the sick and ignor-
ant to which Catherine McAuley devoted
her life and her fortune.

PLEA FOR FAMILY ALBUM.

A gool old custom. regrettably discon-
tinued these modern days, was the main
tanning Of a family album" In this
there were sacredly kept the Iikenesses
Of family, friends, relations, and in
laws for in those days, before the pop
ular-priced kodak made photographs of
everybody cheap and easy. there was a
distinction and a sacredness about a
personal picture. II was something to
be cherished.
On5 turns over the leaves OF one of
these old albums and reads the history
Of three generations. Here are grand
father and great-grandfather. father
when he was little boy; Aunt Katie in
her crinoline, dressed for her first ball:
Uncle George in a plaid jacket and a
curl on top of his head: Aunt Artemisa
and Aunt Caroline, the one in a frInged
mantle with a waterfall the other in a
puffy, hustled gown Of the SOS. But
here they all are-and valuable indeed is
such an album to the descendant who is
proud of race and has this undyinR rec
ord OF other generations.
Nowadays family photographs are
either so expensive that only the most
favored relative may have copies there
of, or they are so .cheap-because any
one may print from camera films, that
no Importance is attached to them out
side OF the immediate family, who for a
while prop up Brother Tom in his car,
or. Sister Lulu in her bathing suit, on
the bureau until something more inter
esting in a snapshot comes along.
One cannot help wishing that the fam
lily album might again be an established
article in the home. and that really good
photographs Of every member Of the
family taken every Ave years or SO might
find place therein for the pleasure and
benefit OF generations to come.

IMPURE SILKS DO NOT WEAR.

When We talk about adulterated silks
and other inferior grades on the mar
ket, We do not always realize what pc
culiar il ingenious materials are used to
fool the purchaser, so ingenious in
deed that even the retail dealer himself
is cheated. For instance, a liberal dose
of glue is used when silk is reeled to
increase the weight Of the fabric. Vari-
Gus soaps and oils are sometimes used
for the same purpose by INSCRIPTIONS
manufacturers. while others use salts of
tin, iron, and lead when the silks are be-
ing dyed.
For hosiery. neckwear and trimmings
these artificial silks give fairly good
wear. but for dresses they are unsatis-
factory, as they are brittle and often
split or fray before the dress is worn,
whereas a good quality silk should last
for years.

SOUPS AT SMALL COST.

To begin cool weather dinners with
soup is an excellent habft-based on
the soundest principles OF dietetics.
Soup prepares us for the heartiest part
Of the dinner and makes us better able
to get the full nutritive value from the
other courses of the meal And, of
course. no housewife ever served soup
less dinners because she couldn't af-
ford to make soup. There are so many
economical soups that the only excuse
for not serving them is that there isn't
time in the day to prepare them. Here
are some good economical soups that
every housewife ought to know how TO
make:
Split pea soup-wash a half pint of
peas and soak overnight in water, to
which pinch OF baking soda has been
added. Pour of the water from the
peas and turn them into a soup kettle
with two quarts OF cold water. A
quarter Of a pound of salt pork or a
ham bone or bones from a roast of
lamb should be added. Allow this to
simmer for five or six hours, then add
a cut-up onion. little celery. salt and
pepper, and simmer for another hour.
Now turn through a wire sieve and
put back in soup kettle. Now mix a
teaspoonful of butter with the same
amount OF -four and stir into the soup
end allow IL to simmer for a quarter
of an hour more. Split pea soup cooked
a long time over a very slow fire is

There is money in branded peaches for
the woman who knows how. Here's a
good recipe:
The recipe for custard sauce may be
