BEST WAY TO WASH the HAIR

We find you can bring out the
beauty of your hair to its very best
advantage by washing it with Can
throx. It makes a very simple, in
expensive shampoo, which cleanses
the hair and scalp thoroughly of all
the dandruff, dirt and excess oil,
leaving wonderfully clean, whole
some feeling. After its use you will
find that the hair dries quickly and
evenly, is never streaked in appear
ance 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 becomes q
pleasure. Just use 4 teaspoonful Of
Canthrox, which you can get from
any good druggists, dissolve it in .
cup Of hot water; this makes full
cup Of shampoo liquid, enough so
it is easy to apply it to all the hair
instead Of just the top Of the head.

OF American ROHs

II may be interesting to American

We are just now In close relation

Ne7C Kind Of
POSS1sn1 Belly
Wagon Seized
Customs Inspectors Find 1t
Filled With Sugar
And Flour.

One Of the most elaborate contriv-
ances for smuggling sugar and flour
from the United States into Mexico
was discovered at the Santa Fe
bridge Tuesday morning when an in
nocent looking wagon about to be
passed over was discovered to have a
false bottom of sheet iron.
Fifty pounds of sugar and 40
pounds of flour were found in the
false bottom and seized by customs
officers. No arrests were made in the
case
The false bottom was made Of sheet
iron and was clamped to the wooden
bottom by means Of bolts. The ap-
pearance Of the wagon was so decep-
tive as to cause almost anyone who
looked at It to think that the sheet
iron had been added merely to
strengthen the wagon.
