NEW YORK TO FIGHT
FOR BETTER HARBOR
Delegation Insists Projected Battleships
Will Be Useless if They Can't
Enter Navy Yard.

A concerted effort on the part Of mem
bers of the New York delegation In the
House of Representatives to force the
Rivers and Harbors Committee to make
some provision for the improvement Of
New York harbor paved the way yester-
day for a struggle which will be decided
within the next few days.
The issue is to be fought out along the
lines OF national defense. Chairman
Sparkman is apparently determined that
New York shall have no harbor improve
ments II the rest of the country is to
have none. He is opposed by the New
York members, among whom are Rep
resentative Fitzgerald and Representa-
tive Hubert, who insist that 1t will be
futile to provide for battleships II they
are unable to approach the navy yards.
An effort will be made to force the
Rivers and Harbors Committee to con-
slider what Improvement is most needed.
II this fails the fight will be carried to
the floor OF the House.

HAIR AND SCALP TROUBLES.

Replying to many inquiries that have
come to me concerning troubles OF the
hair and scalp, l have decided TO give
series Of short articles fully covering
these. as far as Is consistent with home
treatment
Today troubles Of the hair and scalp
are receiving the attention Of scientific
Investigators. II Is because these trou-
bles are on the increase? However that
may be, II has been found that careless
ness, neglect and abuse are very largely
to blame for such conditions as faded,
falling and brittle hair. The idiscrimi-
nate use Of hot irons Is ruinous. The
use Of quantities OF aIkalines, such as
borax. ammonia and the like, devitalize
the hair. roboing it Of Its natural color
and life
Scientists are throwing much light on
this important subject and after all that
Is said, the care Of the hair in nine cases
out OF ten does not differ so much from
the care OF anything else one values.
That Is the point-the average woman
does not set enough store upon her hair
until she begins to lose it.
Then she resents the loss and wonders
what her fashionable sister whose hair
Is always so beautifully dressed does
to insure herself from a similar fate.
The woman OF means and fashion, even
without the aid Of special advice, is
able to preserve her hair because she
gives up many hours in the course of
each week to its care. Cleanliness, mas
sage, and vigorous brushing are three
handmaidens whose daily services are In
constant demand by all women who value
their appearance.
These are the women who know that
well-preserved hair. perfectly groom
ed at all times, constitutes a great at
traction, IL not the greatest physical
attraction one can possess, because,
however plain the features. however
faulty in taste or in personal charm
one may be. a wealth of beautiful hair

Answers to Queries.

No name: Falling hair is always the

either of the scalp or of the system
Generally. If II follows an Illness,
such as typhoid fever or a nervous

OF falling hair. Here is an excellent

tincture Of cantharidies, 2 drains; al
cohol, ounces; glycerin, 2 ounces;

Mother: It is a well-established
scientific fact that woman's hair does
not grow to any apreciabfe extent after
the age OF thirty-five. There are excep-
tions. no doubt This unpleasant truth
Is only now becoming known, and it
IS a pity that all women cannot be
told, as they would then exercise
greater care in the use of hot tongs
and other measures that ultimately
lead them to the complete ruin of this

There seems to be a prevailing opinion
that a number OF the motor car manufac-
turers, If not all. will be forced to in
crease the price of their cars shortly.
Some have already done so. Increased
cost of material Is the reason. Commodi-
ties that year ago could have been pur-
chased for a nominal amount per pound
or per foot today have doubled and some
even have trebled in value. Not only
have they increased this much in value.

them even at the advance in price. There
is but one other thing to do If the price
is not raised, especially by those manu-
facturers who did not purchase their
years supply far in adance. and that is
to decrease the quality OF their car. This
has been tried in years gone by and found
to work to the sorrow of the manufac-
turer. His machine did not stand up.
and as a result he got black eye among
the buying public. Some never recovered
from the effects and In time were forced
to go to the wall. With competition as
keen as It is today and there being so
little difference in the minds of the buy
ing public between various cars that sell
for about the same amount of money, 1t
behooves the manufacturer to maintain
the quality of his product even IL II be-
comes necessary to raise the price to do
