TODAY'S AID TO BEAUTY

Hair is by far the most conspicu-
Gus thing about us and is probably the
most easily damaged by bad or care
less treatment. If 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 en-
tirely removes all dandruff. excess oil
and dirt; can easily be used at trifhng
expense by simply dissolving a tea
spoonful of canthrox (Which you can
get at any druggist's) in a cup of hot
water This makes a 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. 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 fluffiness which makes it seem
much heavier than it is. After a can
throX shampoo, arranging the hair is
a pleasure.-Adv.

Officers Believe Harry Gordon
Ended Own Life.
COffman Clears Up Mystery OF
Two Shots.
HIS PISTOL USED ON MARE
Dead Man Then Used Own TIC
Kill Himself.
Grief Over Loss of Mare May
Have Caused Deed.

The confession of Abe Coffman to-
day that his revolver was used in
shooting the mare owned by Harry
Gordon Highland Parks Man of
Mystery" explodes the theory that Cor
don met his death by foul play some
time Sunday night. Gordon lived at
Twenty-seventh and Iowa streets. Fol-
lowing Coffman's confession, DR.. o. f.
Narcotic. county coroner, stated that
it is probable an inquest will not be
held
Gordon was found dead in a little
room in a barn used by him as a
home. An old rusty IA caliber revolt
yer with one cartridge exploded was
found by his side and a bullet had
plowed thru his brain.
Investigation revealed that L. E.
Kidney. a neighbor, killed mare
owned by Gordon at 9 o'clock Sunday
night and that he and Gordon worked
until o'clock Monday morning bury
ing the mare. The mare had been the
lonely bachelors companion for eigh-
teen years and several times during
the process of burying the animal
Gordon lay down by her side and
caressed the dead beast, Kidney
stated.
Different Pistols Used.
Kidney declared that a revolver
owned by Coffman, who has been dep
utized as a deputy sheriff. was used
denied Monday. declaring that the
same revolver found by GOfdon's side
was used. The revolver showed that
only one cartridge was exploded in
the chamber, while to kill the mare
and to shoot himself with the same
revolver two exploded cartridges in
the chamber would be necessary.
Bob Miller, undersheriff, stated to-
day that Coffman admitted his revol-
yer was used by Kidney in killing the
mare. Coffman's denial of the use OF
| his revolver was based upon fear OF
su bsequent trouble to him, a deputy,
witnessing the killing of the animal.
according to Miller.
How 1t Probably Happened.
| The position of the body and the
revolver found by Gordon's side also
gave rise to a murder theory. The
mans hands were folded across his
abdomen, while the revolver, barre
| down, was under his left arm pit This
| is explained by officers who declare
that Gordon probably lay on his left
side, leveled the revolver at his right
temple. pulled the trigger and his
| body Strengthened out throwing him on
his back and permitting the revolver
/ to fall under his arm pit.
| Coroner Narcotic has wired to Cor
dons brother at Canton. Ohio, and is
| holding the body awaiting word from
there concerning its disposition. The
money Gordon had in the bank has al
been accounted for. according to Off
GERS, and at present there is no motive
to substantiate a murder theory. they

LINEUP THAT
WON II SERIES
(By Associated Press)

CHICAGOO, Sept. 25-When Kid
Gleason succeeded Clarence Rowland
as manager of the Chicago Americans
and started the 1919 season with the
same lineup that finished sixth in the
1918 pennant race after winning the
worlds championship in 1917. few base
ball experts figured that the White
SoX would win the American league
flag this season.
But this Is what has happened and
the wise ones" are Offering all sorts
Of reasons for the startling reversal
of form. They say that playing under
a new leader was a contributing fac
tor, but all agree that perhaps the
main one was that the players them
selves entered the game this season
with a renewed confidence following
the termination of the world war
Last season majority of the White
SoX were expecting to be called into
military service any day, and this
with the classification of baseball as
"non-essential" was a disturbing sit,
uation.
The 1918 White Sox was a team
grinding over the pennant road minus
some of it's main cogs. Joe Jackson

went into the shipyards after batting

Felsch, quit the club after playing in
fifty-three games; Pitcher Faber en-
listed in the navy after winning five
of six games, while Pitcher Claude
Williams went to work in the ship
