The ALLIES PUSH FORWARD
British Critics Say That Both Pei
rome and Baupaume Will Soon
30 Taken.

London, Sept. 27.-Fierce fighting
continues on the Somme front where
the allies are pushing their offensive
with renewed vigor since the capture
of Thiepval and Combles.
The British alone have taken 3400
prisoners in the last wo days and have
pushed forward on both sides of the
Courcelette. Berlin admitted the
loss of Thiepval but said the allies
suffered heavy losses.
1t is possible, British critics said to-
day, that both Peronne and Baupaume
will fall within fortnight. Advanc-
ing nearer to Baupaume, the British
made progress last night and took a
village which lies less than three
miles from their goal.
Lieut. Nungesger French airman,
brought down two more German
planes on the Somme front yesterday,
making his record II.

Movie Actresses
and Their Hair


Did it ever occur to you that every
movie actress you have seen has
lovely hair, while the most popular
count their curls as their chief
beautyl In fact (this is a secret,
many are leading ladies just because
of their attractive locks. Inquiry
among them discloses the fact thai
they bring out all the natural beauty
of their hair by careful shampooing,
not with any soap Or makeshift, but
with a simple mixture which they
make up for themselves by putting
teaspoonful of canthrox (Which
they get from the druggist) in cup
of hot water and applying this instead
of soap. After its use their hair dries
rapidly, with uniform color. Dan
druff, excess oil and dirt are dissolved
and entirely disappear. The hair is
so fluffy that it looks much heavier
than it is. Its luster and softness is
delightful, while the stimulated scalp
gains the health which insures hair
growth.-Advertisement.
