Train Your Hair As
An Actress Does

No class Of people devotes as much
time to beauty as do actresses, and nat
urally no class must be more careful to
retain and develop their charms. In
quiry among them develops the inform
alton that in hair care they find 1t dam
gerous to shampoo with any makeshift
hair cleanser. Instead they have stud
led to find the finest preparation 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 canthrox from
your druggist; dissolve a teaspoonful In
a cup OF hot water and your shampoo Is
ready. 1t costs less than three cents
for this amount. After its use the hair
dries rapidly with uniform color. DAN
druff. excess Oil and dirt are dissolved
and entirely disappear. Your hair will
be so nufry that 1t will look much
heavier than 1t Is. Its lustre and soft
ness will also delight you. while the
stimulated scalp gains the health which
insures hair growth.-Advt.

week or two ago

The Belmonts-to return to our NUT
tons-had quite a house party at the
time OF their dinner and dance. Their
kinsmen. Mr.. and Mrs. Warren Deiano
Robbins were with them. also Julia
Meyer. and Mr.. Brambilla was likewise
their houseguest. notice that when
ever Julia Meyer is In Washington Mr..
Brambilla Is apt to be lowering in her
vicinity, and that quite frequently he is
visiting at the same house. But their
friends give no hint OF budding
romance. They tell me that the two
young people are simply very old friends
having known each other since Julia was
in Rome when her father was Ambas-
sador TO Italy.

Rumor Revised
About CrOssways.

Newport. I hear. is buzzing with the
recurring rumor that George F. Baker
has purchased Crossways. the Stuyve-
SAINT Fish place. and will present 1t to
his scn-in-law and daughter. Mr.. and
Mrs. William Goadby Loew.
This Is the only disposition Of Cross
ways which has been even limited at,
but there Is do doubt that a change Is
imminent. Last month members of the
Fish family made selection Of such
pieces Of the furnishings as they desired
and since then practically all Of the fit-
tings Of the house have been packed up
and shipped away.

entertainments overlapping and dates
getting mixed. Mrs. Fish knew Just

unwritten law that when the season

Some of Those
Suggested for Place.

Almost every body agrees that Mrs
o. II. p. Belmont would be entirely
capable Of taking Mrs Fish's place; but
she cares more for suffrage work than
for society. Mrs. Whitney would also
make an excellent social leader; but
should she see fit to take up the reins
OF leadership. society's gain would be
the art worlds loss, for the demands
on her time. interest and vitality would
leave scant opportunity for her to con-
tinue the work In sculpture for which
she has shown such remarkable talent
Mrs. Loew also has been suggested
as a possible successor to Mrs. Fish and
II she is to occupy Crossways, would be
a singularly fitting choice, But-suppose
this desired leader should come out OF
Washington? t'.-
Stranger things have happened. To
be sure the Washington colony at New
port has only in the last few years
begun to make it's influence felt but
with such women as Mrs. Robert Nc
Cormick, Mrs. Richard Townsend, Mrs
William F. Draper. Mrs. Robert Hit

The church attendance in Columbia
for the past few months, has been on

1t is the duty of every church member
to be worshiper in his or her congre-
CATION on the Sabbath day. If there
are no services in the church to which
member belongs, then some other
church should be attended. Every
body should strive to make the world
better, and waiting upon the Lord In
His houses of worship is the most
effective way. Get in the habit of be-
ing regular in your attendance and
