Why Society Women Wash
Their Own Hair

Few realize how many society
women now wash their own hair,
not because 1t is a-fad, but be-
cause they wish to obtain the
greatest possible hair beauty and
be sure they are not using any
thing harmful. The thousands
who have found that in washing
the hair 1t is never wise to use a
makeshift but is always advisable
to use a preparation made for
shampooing only, say they get
the best results from simple
homemade canthrox mixture.
You can enjoy this, the best that
is known, for about three cents a
shampoo by getting some canthrox
from your druggist, and dissolying
q teaspoonful in a cup of hot
water. Your shampoo is now
ready. After its use the hair
dries rapidly with uniform color.
Dandruff. excess oil and dirt are
dissolved and entirely disappear.
Your hair win be so fluffy that II
will look much heavier than IT Is.
Its lustre and softness will also
delight you, while the stimulated
scalp gains the health which In
lures hair growth.

BY A WOMAN REPORTER.

Ny experiences as a housemaid have taught me-
THAT some women who employ hOusemaids often
fail to show them any human consideration.
THAT some expect maid to do many times the
amount of work that they would expect to do them
selves or expect one of their friends to do
THAT some forget that their maids are women,
the themselves, and are not especially en-
dowed with the qualities of an automatic machine to
choose hOusewOrk as means OF earning livelihood.
THAT some treat their maids not as employees, but
social interiors, drawing class distinction lines in
way that must be repugnant to any girl OF feeling
There are housewives successful in keeping the
same maids year after year. These are not always
the ones who pay the hig CHEST wages They are the
ones who take sympathetic interest in their maids,
who by Kindness consideration and general helpful
ness tighten the burdens of the girls.
The relations of these are such that the maids
not made constantly to feel that they machines
without feeling or inferior beings with undeveloped
feelings, that the clay of the women who pay the
wages is finer clay than that of the who re-
ceve the wages. The girl is made to feel that her
employer is her friend, that if misfortune should
overtake her none would be ready to counsel and
help her as the woman for whom she works
The remedy9 Well, it is difficult to suggest rem
edy with the labor market in its present condition
Wages for girls in factories and stores going up
and girls deserving houSework for this form OF
labor. In the factory one may be an employee, but
she is interiors and she has regular hours of
work and regular days off, which are not possible in
all domestic service jobs The nearest approach to
solution, think, would be this:
Treat your housemaid as if she were human
being.
Give her regular hours of work and regular time
off.
Try not to make her feel that she is of different
caste from you.
Give her the kind of treatment you would want
yourself if you were in domestic service.

How TO Prevent
Acid Stomach and
Food Fermentation
BY A NEW YORK PHYSICIAN.

BY A NEW YORK PHYSICIAN.
My experience in the treatment
of stomach diseases has forced me
to the conclusion that most peo-
pie who complain of stomach trou-
Bile possess stomachs that are abb
solutely healthy and normal. The
real trouble, that which causes all
the pain and difficulty. is excess
sive acid in the stomach, aggre-
waited by food fermentation. Hy-
peracidity irritates the delicate
lining of the stomach abnormally.
causing that full bloated feeling.
Thus both acid and fermentation
interfere with and retard the
process of digestion. The stom-
ach is usually healthy and normal,
but irritated almost past endur-
ance by these foreign clements
acid and wind. In all cases
and they comprise great ma
jority OF all stomach difficulties
the first and only step neees-
sary Is to neutralize the acid and
stop the fermentation by taking
in a little warm or cold -water
Immediately after eating, from
one to two teaspoonfuls of bisur-
ated magnesia, which is the most
effective antacid and food cor
receive | have ever found. The
excess acid will be neutralized
and the fermentation stopped al
most instantly. and your stomach
will at once proceed to digest the
food In q healthy normal manner.
Be sure to ask your druggist for
bisurated magnesia which Is the
form of magnesia especially rec
commended for acid stomach con-
ditions!
