TODAY'S BEAUTY HELP.

We find you can bring out the
beauty of your hair to its very
best advantage by washing 1t with
canthrox. 1t makes very SIM
pie, inexpensive shampoo, which
cleanses the hair and scalp thor
oughly of all the dandruff, dirt
and excess oil, leaving a wonder
fully clean, wholesome feeling.
After it's 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 1t becomes a pleas
ure. Just use a teaspoonful 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 1t is easy to apply il
to all the hair instead of just the
top of the head.

Cuba was a Spanish colony, as

Cuban insurgents had for years

NO LOlTERINC
ON BIG BRIDGE

War orders covering pedestrian
and vehicle traffic on the 18th
street bridge were issued by the
city Thursday.
They prescribe that any person
failing to heed the call OF a mill
tary guard is liable to be shot to
death.
The public is warned against
using the bridge for evening
strolls, and all pedestrians and
vehicles are ordered to keep away
from the central piers and to keep
well in the lighted portions.
No person may stop on the
bridge unless ordered by a sem
try.
Danger of a dynamite disaster,
due to the war, is causing the
drastic orders.

CHAPTER iii.

CHApIER Ill.
| Andrew Johnson, succeeding to
the presidency on Lincoln's death,
was a southerner, but out OF SYM
pathy with the south. His meas
ures dealing with the defeated
confederate states contrasted
strongly with Lincoln's lenient
policies.
Congress differed from Johnson
over measures of reconstructing
southern government, and tried
him in impeachment proceedings
for high crimes and misdemean-
ors," but lacked the two-thirds
vote needed to convict.
All the southern states were re-
admitted by 1868, but the gov
, eminent, being in the hands of
negroes and northern "carpetbag-
gers" was distasteful to southern
ers, who organized the Ku Klux
Khan to combat negro domination.
In 1867 Alaska was purchased
from Russia.
Grant succeeded Johnson. Dur
ing his term the Union and Cen
trail Pacific roads were connected
linking the Pacific and Atlantic
coasts by rail, and the rapid de-
velopment of the far west COM
menced.
The Hayes-Tilden election in
1879 resulted in a close vote, fin
ally decided by an electoral COM
mission in favor of Hayes, 1S5 to
1874.
Garfield succeeded Hayes, and
was the second president to be
assassinated. His vice president,
Arthur, was followed in 1884 by
Grover Cleveland, first democratic
president since the Civil war.
Cleveland was defeated for sec
ond term by BENJAMIN Harrison,
but was elected again in 1892.
During his second term the
United States nearly clashed with
Great Britain over the Monroe
doctrine, Britain having disputed

Tacoma owes-and knows it owes-James Ash
ton debt of gratitude for his effective work in in
ducng the Todd Shpbuilding Co. to locate its plant

this fine feeling entertained for him by any such
selfish, stubborn attitude as this appears to be.
Bring the petition out into the light, gentlemen.
1t is public business let the public discuss it, Any
reasonable request for replat will encounter no
worthy opposition. Tacoma is not going to stand in
its light. Nor yet is it going to sit idly by and

for asking the change is that large industries now
seeking sites demand larger parcels than the ones
available
The Times does not question the logic of this
contention. But The Times does insist that the
vacating Of all these county highways and the crea
ton of new ones is question that demands the best
thought that can be focused upon it. 1t is too inn
portant a matter to be decided by the county COM
missioners however honest, alert and able they may
be- in secret sessions 1t should be laid open to pub

Dear Miss Grey: Was very
much interested in the letter
from "F" who signed himself
"Yours in search of a REAL
chum," because I wonder II
he realizes that most of our
eligible men are seemingly
not looking for the bright in
telligent girls, but the girls
who make the best showing.
When he speaks of our most
attractive girls he refers to
their lp-to-the-minute stylish
dress, and that Is indeed the
attraction that attracts most
of our young men.
| wonder IL he knows that
there are hundreds of girls
right here in Tacoma, both in
tellectual and good looking,
would also like to have a
REAL chum, II they could
find one with brains enough
to converse intelligently.
OF course they are not at
tractive, If doll-like features
and style only are to be con-
sidered nor are they of the
clinging vine variety, because
our brainy girls, while devel-
oping their brains, also de-
velop their features and ex-
press their character and in
telleot in them.
Every young woman wants
to be popular. With her own
sex? Yes. of course, she un-
dou btedly wants to stand well
with her own sex-but with
them alone? Not at all, she
wants to be popular with the
men, too, that Is her nature.
But the intelligent girls
who have high standards of
their own and maintain them,
soon find that in social circles
they are not popular and not
sought after. They are the
so-called wall flowers at any
gathering of young people,
and it is not that they enjoy
jollity one bit less than the
others, nor is 1t because the
matrimonial instinct has been
left out Of their composition.
1t is because they demand
their own approval above
mans, though naturally they
would much prefer to have
the approval of both.
That a certain risqueness
