TODAYS AID TO BEAUTY.

Hair is by far the most conspicuous
thing about us and is probably the
most easily damaged by bad or care
less treatment. II we are very care
full in hair washing. we will have vir-
tually no hair troubles. An especially
fine shampoo for this weather, one
that brings out all the natural beauty
of the hair; that dissolves and entirely
removes all dandruff, excess oil and
dirt; can easily be used at trifling ex-
pense by simply dissolving teaspoon
full of Canthrox (Which you can get
at any druggist's) in a cup of hot
water. This makes full cup of sham
poo liquid-enough so 1t is easy to
apply it to all the hair instead of Just
the top of the head. This chemically
dissolves all impurities and creates a
soothing, cooling lather. Rinsing
leaves the scalp spotlessiy clean. soft
and plant. while the hair takes on
the glossy richness of natural color,
also f1uffiness which makes 1t seem
much heavier than 1t is. After Cam
throx shampoo, arranging the hair is
n pleasure.-Adv.

her birthday present 1t was such
nice, reassuring thing. II the Presi-
dept-the parsonage TO. whom the
whole world was turning. who bore a
weight of responsibility not only to
his own country, but to half of the
rest of the world as well-could find
, time for this little service of family
afrection-could turn on his heel with
a smile and a wave of his hat to the
eager, worried man on the street, and
stroll quietly home (even though he
did give the secret service men bad
quarter of an hour, surely, surely
things were gcing well.
OF course, later on, when the rest
of the world was told of the shopping
expedition, and reminded that Mrs.
Wilson was having a birthday, there
was a little good-natured sarcasm on
the Presidents patronizing the fam
| lily jewelry shop, and wondering
whether he did it because he could
get a substantial discount. or on the
theory that II didn't matter since the
profit stayed in the family, anyhow.

to be at all servilely respectful in its

next day, the 18th, passed very quiet

spent the morning together quietly
on the golf links. 1t was the first
time in about a week that they had
I been able to do II. l believe Mrs.
Boiling and Miss Boiling came over

! Presumably, as the President him
self had achieved something of a rep
utation as a distinguished educator
before he came to the White House,
he found himself quite at home with
this august collection of English edu-
cational celebrities. 1t must have
seemed quite like old times to him.
This particular mission, not being
the guest of the nation, the Perry
| Belmonts did not have to turn out of
their house again for them. Most of
them stayed at the Willard. DR..

It's been a terribly interesting week
just that!
Things have certainly been happen
tng-au sorts of things-hterally!
There has been a highly interesting
correspondence with Germany and
there have been birthdays celebrated
both in the White House and m the
State Department. Washington has
entertained a most distinguished edu-
cationaI mission from Great Britain,
and il has put the Fourth Liberty
Loan triumphantly over the top.
Without figures available one can't
say quite how far over, but surely
over and in view of the many OBJ
stacles it had to hurdle it's an
achievement having put it over at
all. Still, the American public could
not have looked itself in the face
let alone the boys over there. to
whose triumphant return IL is joyfully
looking forward-had IT failed to do
it. And the American public has a
habit-morbidly egotistical habit, IL
you wiil-of looking itself in the face,
and doing ii pretty thoroughly. There
has BEEN Lucy Burleson's engage
ment to discuss, and one or two in
teresting weddings to attend. And
back. of 1T all there has been the
grim fight with the FLU" which
Washington. in common with the rest
OF the country, has been waging.

Isn't that rather a wide range for
one week-with the necessity the
while of going through mechanically
with the usual motions of living?
To begin where left off last week
with Lucy Burleson's engagement
or rather with her plans for her
wedding to Ensign Charles Green
Grimes, for she has gotten pretty
well along with them by now. She
is counting on a church wedding,
for surely by November 2-the date
she has selected-the ban on any
sort of gathering in church will
have been lifted. and she can be
married at st. Johns on Lafayette
square. That's what she's planning,
anyhow, a wedding at St. Johns at
4:45 in the afternoon of Saturday,
November 2, with DR.. Roland Cotton
Smith officiating, and only intimate
friends and members of the two
families present
1t is to be followed by a small re-
ception at the house. AS I under
stand it. the company at the church
is to be so small that they are not
getting out cards for that, but in
yiting the chosen few by word of
mouth-or telephone-or personal
notes. But the Postmaster General
and Mrs. Burleson are sending out
cards-not as many as they would

Keokuk stores must close
Mondays of each week, and all
places of amusement m u t
close Tuesdays. This order
was received today by John
Nagel, chairman Of the Keo-
kuk fuel commission, in a tele-
gram from Charles Webster,
chairman of the state fuel
commission. The order today is
little more than a forecast Of
the complete order, which will
lbe received tomorrow. That
Keokuk stores and theatres
will comply with the ruling is
! taken as a matter Of course.
The order is made following the
lines Of the Garfield order of
last week, and it is understood
that all Iowa river towns are
affected. The order was sent to
Keokuk, Fort Madison, Bur
lington, Davenport, Clinton
and Dubuque fuel administra-
tors by Administrator Web
ster.
There is no limit to the duration
of this order The fuel administrator
In his message says until further no.
ttce. The reason given for the order
an injustice to Illinois cities which
are across the river from Iowa cities.
However, advices from the fuel ad-
ministrator's Office are that the coal
situation in the state is really SER
ious, and 1t is expected that all of the
cities in the state will receive clos
ing orders before long for one days
holiday.
Stores Exempted.
The stores which are exempted
in the fuel administrator order ara
the ones In which fuel, food and
drugs are sold. Grocery stores and
meat markets will in consequence, not
have to close. Drug stores viii of
course, be allowed TO run. The fore
cast speaks only OF stores, whether
office buildings will be included is a
question. In the federal order these
are taken into consideration. Il
looks as if Office buildings might not
have to close, but that will be defin-
itely known in the complete order
tomorrow. Newspapers are allowed
to print as usual, but the editions
are curtaiIed in the federal order.
