MOVIE ACTRESSES AND
THEIR HAIR.

Did it ever occur to you that every
movie actress you have seen has
lovely hair. while the most popular
count their cruls as their chief
beauty? In fact, many are leading
ladies jsut because of their attrsc-
tive locks. Inquiry among them
discloses the fact that they bring
out all the natural beauty of their
hair by careful shampooing. not
with any soap or makeshift, but
with a simple mixture by putting a
teaspoonful Of canthrox (Which they
get from the druggist) in a cup Of
hot water and applying this instead
Of soap. This full cup of shampoo
liquid is enough so it is easy to
apply It to all the hair instead of
Just the top Of the head. After itr
use, the hair dries rapidly with uni
form color. Dandruff, excess oil
and dirt are dissolved and entirely
disappear. The hair is so fluffy
that it loks much reavier than it is,
while its luster and softness is de-

FALSE PRIDE
BY DOROTHY DIX.
Worlds Highest Paid Woman
Writer

The reason that so.many women are
failures is because so many business
women are ashamed Of their jobs.
Lately 1 have been thrown with a
woman who Is well born and well edu-
Gated. and until two years ago moved
in fashionable social circles. Then
her husband suddenly died. and as
they had spent everything he made in
keeping up with their rich friends,
she was left destitute.
She studied stenography and was
given a place in a business office by
a man who had often been her guest
in her palmy days. but instead Of
being proud that she had enough in
telligence, courage and independence
to strike out for herself instead Of be-
coming a dependent uRpn the grudg-
ing charity of others. this silly woman
was Inundated to death because she
had to go TO work.
! think have never seen anything
more pathetic than her false pride, a
pride that made her boast continually
of having known this or that member
OF the four hundred and Of having
spent a weekend at some million
aires palatial country home. or taken
a trip on some trust magnate's yacht.
1t made you want to weep to hear her
recount her past social triumphs IN
one breath and in the next wall be-
cause most of her former friends nd
acquaintances had dropped her as II
she had been suddenly smitten with
the leprosy as soon as she had become
poor and needy.
This woman had no interest in her
work, no ambition to excel in it. Every
particle of brain and energy she had
was concentrated on hanging on to
what little social position she had
left and keeping up the fiction that
she had taken up stenography as q
fad to occupy her thoughts and keep
her from grieving too much over the
loss of her husband. instead of hav-
ing taken it up as a business by which
to make bread and butter.
This poor lady's case stirred my
deepest compassion, not because fate
had forced her to become a producer
instead Of just a waster and a spender
for 1 believe that none but those who
work have any excuse for living, out
because her false pride made the way
so hard for her and doomed her to
ultimate failure.
She missed the thrill and Joy of
independence because she was
ashamed to be known as a working
woman. She missed that deep sat-
isfying exaltation that the crafts
man has in good work done because
she despised the labor at which she
toiled. She missed the sincere
friendship and companionship that
she might have had among her fel-

Always. Dick?" I could not help

You of course know. Margie, that

And, little book, l believe he meant
it.
Sometimes think that few
months illness of the husband would
make most marriages more successful.
Dick has never paid me as many COM
pliments or made so much love to me
as since he has been sick. When a
man has nothing else to take up his
mind he begins to feel his heart beat
for the woman who is near him.
When he gets well a woman must
take her place with the other inter-
esting things in his mind
If a woman, little book, could only
understand this. she would not always
be trying to sweep out everything
from the mind Of the man she loves
but herself.
She can never do it. little book,

has done for a long time.
''At what hour. my lady. did you
get in last night?" he said in mock
rage. Don't you know 1t is very
wrong for a virtuous married wom-
and to stay out till all hours of the
night with her husbands best friend,
while that poor husband is ill in bed,
to make it worse"

What kind of confession,
Madame. did you have to make that
1t took you so long?"
1T was no confession at all, Dick
dear. it was just a little hymn of
thanksgiving.
Dick came over to me swiftly and
with his arms about me, he asked.
looking eagerly into my face.
Have you really anything to be
thankful for. Margie? Do you know 1
thought last night as you went out
the door so beautiful and happy, that
was a brute to tie you down to
poor old me. Why. Margie, I am
afraid l will be an invalid all my life
and then what will you with your
love of gayety do?"
Perhaps, Dick, I'll do Just what
did last night, go out with your
best friend" and then as 1 saw a
shadow eros his face. added quickly
but won't do it often, dear"
what are we talking about such
silly things for, Dick, of course you
are going to get we'll. You know you
are better this morning and from

It is an American committee, the con- mission of relief in Belgium in close union with the government, displays an untirins devotion and marvellous activity in revictualling Belgium. The government of the king, is happy to avail itself of this opportunity to ex- press its profound gratitude to the commission for relief as well as to the generous Americans eager to re- lieve the misery of the Belgian popu- lation. Finally, nowhere more than in the United States have the depor- tatiOn of Belgian civilians provoked such a spontaneous movement of pro testation and indignant reproof.
 These facts, entirely to the honor of the American nation, allow the government of t6e king to entertain the legitimate hope that at the time of the definite settlement of this long war, the voice of the entente powers will find in the United States unan- Belgian nation, innocent victim of German ambition and covetousness, the rank and the place which its ir- reproachable past, the valor of its soldiers. it's fidelity to honor, and it's remarkable faculties for work assign to it among the civilized nations D

 which had been recognized by it's own delegates as a valid law of nations and in the further course of the war violated in the most severe fashion also the Paris declarations; so that, by her arbitrary measures for warfare, a condition of lawlessness has been ere ated.
 ''The war of starvation against Ger many and the pressure exercised i' England's interest against neutrals are not less scandalously conflicting with the rules and laws of nations as with the commands of humanity.
 Likewise, contrary to the laws of nations and incompatible with the usages of civilization are the use of colored troops in Europe and the ex- tension of the war into Africa, which was done by a breach of existing treaties and which undermines the prestige of the white race on that con tinent. The barbaTous treatment of prisoners, especially in Africa and Russia, and the deportation of the civilian population from Eastern Prus- sia, Alsace-Lorraine, Galicia and Kuko- wina and further proof of how our ad- versaries point out the special situa- ton of Belgium. Already before the war, Belgium, under England's infiu- ence. sought support in military fla shion from England and France and thus herself violated the spirit (of the treaty. which she had to guarantee her independence and neutrality.

full extent and compensate for ali damage which might be caused by the passage of the German troops. It is known that the royal British govern ment in 1887 was resolved not co op- pose the use of the right of way through Belgium under these condi- tions.
 ''The Belgian government declined the repeated offer of the imperial gov ernment. Upon her and those powers which instigated her to this attitude ialls the responsibility for the fate which befell Belgium.
 The accusations about the German warfare in Belgium and the measures ,aken there in the interest of military safety have been repeatedly refuted Oy the imperial government as untrue. Germany again offers energetic pro test against these calumnies.
 Germany and her allies have made an honest attempt to terminate the war and open the road for an under standing among the belligerents. The imperial government asserts the fact hat it merely depended upon the de- cision of our adversaries whether the road towards peace should be entered dpSn or not. The hostile governments declined to accept this road. Upon hem falls the full responsibility for the continuation of the bloodshed.

son to see the present war ended as early as possible.
 But the president seems to be heve that the statesmen of the two opposing camps pursue the same ob- jects Of war. The example of Bel gium, unfortunately. demonstrates that this Is in nowise the tact. Bel gium has never, like the central powers, aimed at conquests. The bar barous fashion in which the German government has treated, and is still treating, the Belgian nation does not permit the suspicion that Germany will pre-occupy herself with guaran- teeing in the future the rights of the weak nations which she has not ceased to trample under foot since the war, let loose by her. began to uesolate Europe. On the other hand, the government of the king has noted with pleasure and with confidence the assurances that the United States is impatient to cooperate in the measures which will be taken after the conclusion of peace, to protect and guarantee the small nations against violence and oppression.
 Previous to the German ultima tum, Belgium only aspired to live upon good terms with all her neigh bors, she practiced with scrupulous loyalty toward each one of them the duties imposed by her neutrality In the same manner she has been re- waIded by Germany for the confidence she placed in her. through which from one day to the other, without any plausible reason, her neutrality was violated. and the chancellor of the empire when announcing to the Reichstag this violation of right and of treaties. was obliged to recognize the iniquity of such an act and pre- determine that it would be repaired But the Germans, after the occupa- ton of Belgian territory, have dis played no better observance of the rules of international law or the stip- ulations of The Hague convention. They have, by taxation, as heavy as it is arbitrary, drained the resources of the country; they have inten- ;ionaIly ruined its industries, de stroyed whole cities, put 60 death and imprisoned a considerable number of the inhabitants. Even now, while they are loudly proclaiming their de- sire to put an end to the horrors of the war, they are deporting into ser yitude Belgian workers by the thou sands.

The Turks apparently are receiv- ing hard usage at the hands of the British in the MesopOtamian and Egyptian theaters. Following up their advance northeast of Kut-el- Amara, on the Tigris in Tesopotamia early in the week, the British have again attacked and captured Turkish trenches on the right bank of the river and inflicted heavy casualties on the Ottomans.
 On the Sinai peninsula, 30 miles northeast of Fl Arish, Egypt. six lines of Turkish trenches in front of the town of Rafa, have been captured by King Georges men.
 Hard fighting is still in progress in the region of Riga in northwest Russia, but the exact situation is still not clear owing to the divergent re- ports of the Russian and German war offices Petrograd asserts that the Russians south of Lake Babit cap tured village near the town of Kalnsem and repulsed German coun- ter attacks further east.
 Berlin says that all Russian attacks were comparatively repulsed. Admis- sion is made by PetrOgrad that the Russian and Rumanian forces in Moldavia have made further retire ments in the OituZ, Kassina, and Suchitza regions. but it is asserted that the Teutons who crossed the Puma river north of Fokshani have been driven back across the stream, suffering heavy casualties.
 On the other fronts nothing but minor operations and artillery duels have taken place. The British on the front in France have at several points penetrated the German trenches in- flicting casualties on the defenders.
