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 cam
throx. 1t makes a very simple, in
expensive shampoo, which\ cleanses
the hair and scalp thoroughly Of all
the dandruff, dirt and excess oil,
leaving a wonderfully clean, whole
some feeling. After it's 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 a
pleasure. Just use a teaspoonful Of
canthrox, which you can get from
any good druggists, dissolve it in a
cup of hot water; this makes a full
cup of shampoo liquid, enough so
it is easy to apply to all the hair
instead of just the top of the head.

ceive another letter from her upon
Wednesday night, marked special
delivery" She had not named the
hour of her arrival in the first letter,
and, as l expected when l opened
the envelope, I found that she had
remedied the omission with her
usual thoughtfulness.
"We shall be with you on the
train reaching Marvin at 4:3O
o'clock Thursday afternoon" the
brief note ran. 81 cuold not tell at
the time l wrote before just what
train we could get Lovingly,

That's short letter for a spe-

We were all gathered before the

the first chilly evening we had had,
and we were revelling in the COM
fort of the blazing logs. Katie had
brought the letter and the book for
my signature in such famboyant
fashion that the attention of every
one in the room was unconsciously
fixed upon the missive.

Harriet Braithwaite. ..
"Yes, isn't it?" / responded care

Before there was chance either
for me to volunteer an explanation
concerning the letter or for any one
else to comment upon it. Harriet
crumpled toward the side OF her
chair, apparently in pain.
"Oh, Edwin" she said family,
We all sprang toward her, but l
did not share the alarm of the 9TH

that she was simply feigning pain in
order to divert the attention of every

keep URIC ACID
OUT OF JOINTS
Tells Rheumatism Sufferers to
Eat Less Meat and Take
Salts.

Rheumatism is easier to avoid
than to cure, states a well-known
authority. We are advised to dress
warmly; keep the feet dry; avoid
exposure; eat less meat, but drink
plenty of good water.
Rheumatism is a direct result of
.ating too much meat and other
ich foods that produce uric acid
which is absorbed into the blood.
II is the function of the kidneys to
ilter this acid from the blood and
cast it out in the urine; the pores of
the skin are also means of freeing
the blood of this impurity. In damp
and chilly cold weather the skin
pores are closed thus forcing the
kidneys to do double work, they be-
come weak. and sluggish and fail to
eliminate the uric acid which keeps
accumulating and circulating
through the system, eventually set
Ting in the joints and muscles caus-
ing stiffness, soreness and pain

At the first twinge of rheumatism

ounces OF Jad Salts; put table
spoonful in a glass of water and
drink before breakfast each morning
for a week. This is said to elimi-
nate uric acid by stimulating the
kidneys to normal action, thus rid
