HOW TO JUDGE A WOMAN
BY her HAIR

There is real common sense in just
noticing whether the hair is well kept
to judge of a womans neatness. or
good taste. If you are one Of the few
who try to make the most of your
hair, remember that it is not advis-
able to wash the hair with any
cleanser made for all purposes, but al
ways use some good preparation made
expressly for shampooing. You can
enjoy the very best by getting some
canthrox from your druggist, dissolve
teaspoonful in cup Of hot water.
This makes a full cup of shampoo
liquid, enough so it is easy to apply
1t to all the hair instead Of just the
top Of the head. Dandruff, excess oil,
and dirt are dissolved and entirely
disappear. Your hair will be so fluffy
that it will look much heavier than 1t
is. It's lustre and softness will also
delight you, while the stimulated scalp
gains the health which insures hair

distinctive features are observable in the
treatment of riggs disease by patients
using pyorigg: The progress of the dis

stopped. The color of the gums is re- re-
stored to a healthy pink condition in the
course Of few days Undue redness of
gums disappears. inflammation. soreness
and sensitiveness disappear. Gums build
up and fill out, receding stops. Separated
teeth come together. Loose teeth tighten
up and bleeding of gums ceases. Pyorigg
is a new prescription specially for riggs
disease which comes in the form of a
medicated massage unguentum which
stays where it is put. unaffected by saliva

fenced to the new Women's Re-
formatory at Skowhegan went to that
institution today escorted by City

found, however, although it was hard
work to keep Mary in the court room
long enough to hear the testimony,
she having perchant for leaving.
Several times she left the room only
to be brought back. When sentenced.
she objected very strongly, saving
that she didn't want to go over there
where she didn't know anybody" For
some years she has been taken care
Of at the City farm and is thought to
be mentally irresponsible for her ac
