been in apparently good health until
about three o'clock Tuesday morning,
when her condition became so acute
that all relief offered was to no avail.
1t was thought, though, that she was
improving, when death came. The
announcement of her death was
shock to her many friends in the city
and community, where she had been
active in both church and social circles

June ID, 1865. She came to Sandusky
with her parents when about fourteen
years of age. She was married to
Archibald l.. Gillian, at Yale. March l.,

their home at Yale, moving from there
to Sandusky about twenty eight years
ago, where they have since resided.
Besides her husband she is survived by
five children.
She was an active member of the
First M. +. church of this city, Past
Grand of the Rebekah lodge and a
worker in the Red Cross society.
The funeral will be held at 2 o'clock

Majestic Theatre, Port Huron.

Many from this place plan to motor
to Port Huron next Sunday to take in
the "Great Star and Garter Show" at
the Majestic Theatre, matinee and
night. This show marks the for
NAL opening of the musical comedy
season at the Majestic, these shows
playing at this popular theatre each
Sunday throughout the theatrical sea-
son. The Star and Garter show has
stopped at nothing, regardless of ex-
penditure or cost of scenic production,
costuming, electrical or general effect,
their idea being to make it produc-
tion at par with those given at the
Broadway theatres.
This seasons offering is in two parts,
and under the titles of "For Arts Sake"
and "Hingle, Tingle." The 1rst scene
takes place in an artists studio, and
the other transports one over to that
great city of pleasure. "Gay Paree."
This jingling musical comedy en-
braces every form of modern stagecraft
and fairly bubbles with song and laugh.
ter. From start to finish it is an all
new show, in which the writers and
producers have stopped at nothing in
order to make this performance the one
genuine hit of the season.
There are fifty people in the organi.
zation, the principals of whom are Don
Clark, Bert Rose, James Coughlin,
Jess Weiss, Will BOWS, AL Lawrence,
Florence Darley, Frank LaBrack, May
Delisle, assisted by others in big
dance revue and prize assemblage Of
chorus girls of youth, beauty and quail
ity. This is thoroughly clean enter.
tainment for both ladies and gentle
men and the capacity of the Majestic
will no doubt be taxed. Owing to the
rush for seats each Sunday, it would be
well to write or telephone now for res.

Alkali in Soap
Bad for the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully
if YOU want to keep your hair looking
it's best Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much a1kali
This dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is just
ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil (Which
is pure and greaseless), and is better
than the most expensive soap or any
thing else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroly. Simply
moisten the hair with water and rub it
in 1t makes an abundance of rich,
creamy lather which rinses out easily,
Removing every particle of dust. dirt,
dandruff and excessive oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves
scalp soft, and the hair fine and
silky, brisf.t, lustrous. fluffy and easy
to manage
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy. it's very cheap, and
few ounces will supply every mem

THIEVES USE ENGINE
Carry Freight Loot Prom Yards to
Pool Room With Locomotive

St Louis, Aug. 21.-Car thieves here
this morning used locomotive of the
st. Louis Terminal Railway association
to haul loot from a freight car in the
terminal yards to a pool room.
PatroImen searched the pool room
and found thirty nine caddies of chew
ing tobacco.

The switchman and the fireman said
they were under the impression the
tobacco was being taken to the pool
room for safekeeping, and that they
did not know it had been stolen.
Agents of the terminal told the po-
lice the switching crew knowingly
violated the terminal rules in unload
ing the tobacco at the pool room.
