The CONSUMPTION bill was passed to

How nice! Coal miners wages have
been increased in the neighborhood of
$50, 100000 and freight rates are to

Which means that the ultimate con-

iector more frequently.

Today's Beauty Help

We find you can bring out the beau
ty OF your hair to its very best ad.
vantage by washing it with canthrox.
It makes very simple, inexpensive
shampoo. which cleanses the hair and
scalp thoroughly Of all the dandruff,
dirt and excess oil, leaving a wonder
fully clean, wholesome feeling. After
its use you will find that the hair
dries quickly and evenly, is never
streaked in appearance and is always
bright, soft and fluffy; SO fluffy in
fact that it looks more abundant than
it is, and so soft that arranging it be-
comes a pleasure. Just use tea.
spoonful of canthrox which you can
get from any good druggist, dissolve
it in cup of hot water. this makes a
full cup of shampoo liquid, enough so
it is easy to apply it to all the hair in.
