Train Your Hair as

No class OF people devotcs as
much time Il beauty as do ac-
tresses, and naturally no class must
be more careful to retain and de-
velop their charms. Inquiry among
them develops the Information that
in hair care they find 1t dangerous
to shampoo with any makeshift
hair cleanser. Instead they have
studied to find the finest prcpara-
ton made for shampooing and
bringing out the beauty of the hair.
The majority OF them say that to
enjoy the best hair wash and scalp
stimulator that is known. get a
package OF carthroX from your
druggist: dissolve "a tcaspoonful in
Il cup OF hot water and your sham
poo is ready. II costs less than

it's use the hair dries rapidly. with

OF WHAT DANIELS DOES
What he handed me was an article
by Hector BywS;er, tho famous Eng
lsh naval expert, written for a British
journal after careful study OF the
American navy. 1 glanced 1t over and
saw this paragraph marked:
1T need hardly be said that the po-
litical head OF the United States Navy
possesses Infinitely more power than
the civilian First Lord in Great Brit
ain. And there !s every indication that
MIR Daniels has been using his power
to the utmost. His friends say he has
accomplished wonders; his enemies, who
are very many, declare that his per-
sonal fads and prejudiccs have under

tary's drastic order shortly after he

the drink prohibition excited rldiculc

that it has had a most beneficial effect
on efficiency and discipline. The
