THE HAIR BEAUTY
THAT BELONGS TO YOU

So many who have long known
that hair beauty was certain to
follow upon systematic hair care
have been loath to commence
what they mistakenly think too
much trouble. Proper hair care
means only keeping the scalp and
hair perfectly clean by use OF
some preparation made for sham
pooling, not for general cleansing.
You can enjoy the best that Is
known for about three cents
shampoo by getting package Of
Canthrox from your druggist.
Dissolve teaspoonful In cup
of hot water and your shampoo is
ready. After its use the hair dries
rapidly with uniform color. Dand-'
ruff, excess oil and dirt are dis
solved and entirely disappear.
Your hair will be so fluffy that II
will look much heavier than 1t Is.
It's luster and softness will also
delight you, while the stimulated
scalp gains the health which In
sures hair growth.

Rose O'NeilI, Judge
The judges, among them Miss
Rose O'Neill, originator of the
"kewpies," have done much by
the use of drawings to suggest
what is desired. but none of their
efforts are to be included in the

idea is wanted.
Miss O'Neill, who Is to judge
the beauty of the designs, while
the others weigh the utility of
them, says:
"A garment may be beautiful

Movie Reviews

ALL THE MOVIE men OF Ta-

lie needs thrillers to keep IL
awake. There's more films on
Broadway and Pacific avenue this
week to set the goose-flesh creep
ing, than there has been in
months.
LAST NIGHT I went up to MFR.
Moore's Colonial. And | saw a
show that l won't forget. It's
called THE Escape" The pic
ture starts with some nice coun-
trified views taken on stock
farms. showing what care We take
In breeding fine horses and cattle.
AND THEN THE film delves
into a drama of the Lower East
Side-a real eller-drammer. too
that shows Just how little the
human beings of America care
about the breeding of their own
race. It's n dog-gone ticklish
film, but | noticed that II opened
the eyes of everybody In that
audience.
AND DOWN AT THE Liberty
theater Theda Bara--the subtle,
flaming vampire-has returned
in another of her thrillers. This

Wilson, at the instance of influential
friends. hope of escaping prison
through a pardon from the President
practically has been abandoned by
the convicted men, their friends and
counsel.
Il is almost certain, it was learned
in Washington yesterday, that the
President will give no consideration
to a pardon petition. Under the pro-
cedure of the Attorney Generals Of
fee, the report on the application for
Executive c.emency" will not go TO
the President unless he specifically
asks for II. The rule is that there
must be a favorable report from the
prosecuting attorney and the trial
judge TO make the application worthy
of consideration by the Chief Execu-
tive.
Since District Attorney Francis
Fisher Kane, John c. Swartley. his
precedessor, and Judge Charles B.
