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 shampoo
ing, not for general cleansing You
can enjoy the best that is known for
about three cents a shampoo by get
ting a package of Canthrox from your
druggist Dissolve a teaSpoonful in a
cup of hot water and your shampoo is
ready. After its use the hair dries
rapidly with uniform color. Dandruff,
excess oil and dirt are dissolved and
entirely disappear. Your hair will be
so fluffy that it will look much heav-
Ter than it is. Its luster and softness
will also delight you, while the stimu-
lated scalp gains the health which in
sures hair growth.-Adv.

Formed to Protect
Rock Island Shareholders.
Real Aim, However, Is Said TIC
Be Against Amster Interests.
CUT DOWN new YORK FORCE
Receivers in Conference Us
Drastic Economy in Offices.
Other Items of General Interest
in the Traffic World.

The latest move in connection with
the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific
Railway company, now under receiv-
ership control, was the, formation this
week of a committee to protect the
equity of the shareholders. This
committee consists of Charles Hayden,
w. Emlen Roosevelt and W. j. Mathe-
son, who recently were elected to the
directorate by the dominant interests
in the property, and of F. L. Leland,
J. s. Alexander and A. F. Van Hall,
the latter representing large Dutch
holders of Rock Island securities.
The committee, it is said, has for
muIated no definite plans and claims
absolute independence of any special
interest. 1t has not asked for the
deposit of stock, but the understand
ing is that such request may be made
before long.
Organization of this committee is
regarded in New York and Chicago
financial circles as another move
against the socalled Amster interests.
which elected their representative to
the board at last months meeting in
Chicago. At that time, Mr. Van Hall
was believed to be in harmony with
the Amster faction. His acceptance
copied as an indication that he has
aligned himself with the Reid-Moore
interests and against Amster, who has
denounced these interests as response
bic for the Rock Islands present
troubles.
The Rock Island receivers have
been in daily conference in New YORK
reductions in the local force there for
reasons of economy no changes at
fecting the general policy of the SyS-
tenn have yet been announced.

SOUSA REVIEW.

John Philip Sousa and his band
were we'll received at the Grand last
night. Every number on the program
was encored. 1t was a moderately
we'll filled house.
The overture, Carnival Romain,''
by Berlioz, was followed by an en-
core number of one of Sousa's famous
marches. Herbert L. Clarke, a cor
netist, produced clear and beautiful
tones in a solo, "Neptune's Court" A
composition by Sousa, Impressions at
the Movies was presented here for
the first time. Other band numbers
were the prelude and Loves Death, -
from Tristan and Isolde; "Scherzo,"
from symphony in d Major" "Shep-
herds. Hey" and closing with Ameri-
can dance music. Miss Virginia Root
a soprano, and Miss MARCEL Gluck
violinist, were both pleasing in their
line of endeavor.
The great factor in Sousa and his
men is the harmony they produce
The band is a collection of persons
among the greatest musicians, each
one a specialist with his instrument
1t is still Sousa's band and the famous
director has lost none of his ability in
giving to his patrons music of the
highest order. IS. j.

Late Ebert Hubbard Wrote Letters Re-
garding Railway Troubles.
Gilbert Hubbard, who went down with
the Lusftania, always took an active in
terest in Kansas railway matters. Mr..
Hubbard a month ago wrote answer to
an editorial appearing in a Kansas paper
and at the time wrote a brief note
to J. NJ. Connell, of Topeka, general pas
senger agent of the Santa Fee
In his note to Mr.. Connell the editor of
the Philfstine said: THE habit of kicking
is upon certain class of writer's but my
opinion is that the world is gradually
that there is no such thing as prosperity
for this country unless the railroads are
prosperous"
Following is Mr.. Hubbard's answer to
the editorial:
II quite agree with you that in days
past railroad managers were sometimes
guilty of charging all the traffic would
bear. However, today we are all our
good behavior; and 1 know you will agree
with that there is such thing as
roads are prosperous. When the railroads
are buying iron, lettering their equipment,
building good terminals, double tracking
their lines, everybody is prosperous and

good as editors-just as virtuous, just
honest, just as kind and courteous.
