can Missionary.

formally annexed to Japan.
VI Heui, sometimes called VI Hevis
and Yi-Hyeung, succeeded King Tohyel-
thong and assembled the throne January
l, 1854. His reign perpetuated the
ancient customs of his people. and pomp
and ceremony. along with a multitude
of sorceresses and sacrifices, made him
known throughout the world. He was
known as King until 1906 and as EN-
peror from then until his abdication.
The abdication was actually the result
of Japan's effort to break the power
which vi Heui had welded and to sub
sttute therefor a form of government
under which the ruler could exercise his
powers only with the consent of the
Japanese resident general. 1t was has
tened by the appearance OF a Corean
delegation at the Hague peace confer
ence.

slant dread OF enemies and was so ds<
trustfu of every one about him that.

locked silver bowl, of which he always
kept the key.

peror's first wife, and the American En-
press was crowned and known as En-
press ON. For time after the first
Empress's death VI Heui turned night
into day. so fearful was he OF his enc

MOVIE ACTRESSES AND
THEIR HAIR

Did it ever occur to you that every
movie actress you have seen has
lovely hair, while the most popular
count their curls as their chief beauty?
In fact, many are leading ladies
just because of their attractive looks.
Inquiry among them discloses the
fact that they bring out all the natural
beauty of their hair by careful sham
pooling, not with any soap or make
shift, but with a simple mixture
by putting a teaspoonful of canthrox
(Which they get from the druggist)
in a cup of hot water and applying
this instead of soap. This full cup
of shampoo liquid is enough so it is
easy to apply it to all the hair instead
of Just the top of the head. After
its use, the hair dries rapidly with
uniform color Dandruff, excess oil
and dirt are dissolved and entirely
disappear. The hair is so fluffy
that it looks much heavier than it
Is. its luster and softness are de-
lightful. ADV.

CORTOT DISPLAYS
SPEED AT PIANO
French Artist Revels in Fu-
rious Tempt During Part
of Recital.

Under the auspices of the Society OF
the Friends of Music Alfred Cortot,
the distinguished French pianist, gave a
recital yesterday afternoon in Aeolian
Hall. His programme was agreeable
without having any element designed 10
stimulate curiosity.
Schuberts lovely impromptu in b
fiat. once a diamond among the gems
OF the repertoire OF the Prime Minister
of Poland, opened the concert. Men
delssohn's comfortable old Rondo Cap
riccioso served as prelude to the Ave
extra variations written by Schumann
for his great opus 10, but never In
cluded in the work.
Weber's Invitation 20 the Dance
completed the first group. In the per-
formance OF these numbers Mr.. Cortot
permitted some of his personal idiosyn-
crasies TO obtrude themselves. He
revelled in furious tempt. sometimes 10
tho peril OF clarity and smoothness, but
always with an expression OF the pas
sionate eagerness which seemed to per-
wade his spirit yesterday. The Weber
number was taken at speed that
would have defied the art OF Nijinsky
In the Schubert and Mendelssohn num-
bers too there were some bits OF exag-
gerated rubato.
But Mr.. Cortots caprices. II they may
fairly be so called. are those OF ar

| LARRY personal character to his playing
and there can he no quarrel with an in

creation OF a pianist with profound faith

performance. Ravel. Faure, DebussS
