TODAY'S AID TO BEAUTY.

Hair is by far the most conspic-

ably the most easily damaged by
bad or careless treatment II we
are very careful in hair washing.
We will have virtually no hair
troubles. An especially fine sham
poo for this weather. one that
brings out all the natural beauty
Of the hair; that dissolves and en-
tirely removes all dandruff, excess
oil and dirt: can easily be used at
trifing expense by simply dissolv-
ing q teaspoonful Of Canthrox
(which you can get at any drug
gist's) in q cup of hot water. This
makes full cup Of shampoo
lfquid-enough so It 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
spotlessly clean, soft and plant.
while the hair takes on the glossy
richness Of natural color, also a
fiuffiness which makes it seem much
heavier than II is. After Canthrox
shampoo, arranging the hair Is a
pleasure.-Adv.

Rough edges, squeaky wheels and
unleavened comedy seemed to domi-

music show, I'm and Out" which was
disclosed at the Belasco last evening.
The first act was raw, largely from

musical offerings sometimes comes to
grief; the second act rallied and re-
vealed the piece at its best and in the
meter in which its sponsors are evil

Esq. w. A Mcneil, of Rives, was
here Monday and in the rounds he
found time to drop in and say few
things. Esq. McNeiIl says that he
has been having too easy time since
he was Mayor of RiYes. He wants
to get in trouble again and therefore
he ran for Magistrate. Now he says
that the country should have more
concrete bridges as a money-saving
proposition. But one of the most
important things, in Mr.. McNeill's
Judgment, is the road-work question.
He thinks the number of days for
working the roads cannot be easily
changed. 1t is constitutional
question. But the amount paid for
substitutes to work the road can be
changed, and Instead of this being
$3.50 it should be $3.50. If this can
not be done any other way it can be
done by the Legislature, and Mr..
Mcneil is striking at the real cause
of the trouble. 1t is worth several
times more than SO cents day to
work the roads at the present wage
scales rates.
