T0DAY'S BEAUTY HELP

You can keep your hair at its very
best by washing it with teaspoon
full of canthrox dissolved in a cup
of hot water, afterward rinsing
thoroughly with clear water. One
finds that the hair dries quickly and
evenly, is unstreaked, bright, soft
ana very fluffy, so fluffy in fact,
that it looks more abU ndant than
it is, and so soft that arranging it
becomes a pleasure. This simple, in
expensive shampoo cleanSes the nair
and scalp thoroughly of all dandruft
and dirt, and leaves a clean, whole
some feeling. All scalp irritation
will disappear, and the hair will be
brighter and glossier than ever be-
fore.-Advt.

LANCASTER'S BODY
FOUND SATURDAY
Was in Abandoned Shaft of Gold Mine
Young Man Lost More Than Two
Weeks-Burial at Sulphur
Springs Saturday After
noon.

The body of Pettus Lancaster. son
of Mr.. and Mrs. NJ. w. Lancaster, of
near West Springs, was found in an
abandoned shaft of gold mine early
Saturday morning. The young man
disappeared the evening of the storm
which swept over the county more
than two weeks ago, and despite the
concerted and persistent efforts of the
entire neighborhood, no trace of him
could be found except that his hat was
found soon after the search was begun.
Many came to suspect foul play, but
the body, when found, did not bear
out this belief. His money, watch and
other articles were found to be Just
as when he disappeared. The sup
position is that he left Glenn Springs
late that afternoon, got within a mile
by the heavy downpour of rain and
of his parents home, was overtaken
the heavy wind storm and, becoming
confused, lost his way. He must have
taken the very opposite way home,
for it was some distance off the road,
and in thick wooded place that he
met the tragic end. The pit into
which he fell was about thirty-five
feet deep, had about ten feet of water
in it, and was almost solid rock
basin. This shaft was examined by
the searching party, but was not
pumped dry as were several others.
1T is supposed that the hooks failed to
touch the body and that the darkness
prevented the finding of the body at
that time.
Mr.. and Mrs. Lancaster have a wide
circle of friends who deeply sympa
thize with them in the bereavement
that has overtaken them. They ex-
pressed deep appreciation for the as
sistance rendered them by the people
of the community, and said: "No one
can know how grateful we are for the
unceasing kindness of our friends"
The body of the young man was
laid to rest in Sulphur Springs church
graveyard late Saturday afternoon,
the burial being conducted by Rev.
Lewis M. Rice.

TAKE NOTICE,
IF YOU ORDER BOOZE.

Many people do not understand
some features of the present prohib-
tion law. One thing is that two or
more people are not allowed to "chip
in" and order a gallon of liquor to be
divided among themselves. Another
thing is that it is unlawful to allow
anyone to order whiskey in your name,
or to order whiskey in another party's
name. Some people do not understand
this, but the law orders confiscation in
each of the above cases.
Mayor Wharton requests that no.
tice of the above conditions be given
the public, so that all may govern
themselves accordingly

By Winona Wilcox

Honest citizens of many states
believe the ballot will make wom-
an a business rival, which they do
not want, and take her out of the
home, where they want her.
Such men need the information
that nearly 35 per cent of the
women In four great eastern states
where they have not the ballot
are already working for wages
outside of the home. But they
are very far from being mems
business rival. THEY MERELY
PROMOTE MANS SUCCESS by
tending his machines, keeping
books and tipping his letters.
Woman makes a very satisfac-
tory employee and whatever may
be his theory about the place of
woman In the home, man has pro-
vided her with plenty of oppor-
tunities to work away from IL. Su-
perfluous and dissatisfied women
soon fill these new chances to be-
come economically independent.
Here, apparently, is REAL
MENACE to the stability of the
home.
But thousands OF women who
have tried the business world are
now ready to testify that woman's
way to liberty is not by the road
which leads away from the home.
Most women work for wage only
in order to support a home, or to
raise its standard. But they do not
exchange one kind Of drudgery for
another as they expected to do.
The business woman soon dis
covers that her freedom" consists
in carrying on two Jobs instead of
