This Weeks Beauty Help

1t is not necessary to shampoo your
hair so frequently if it is entirely
and properly cleansed each time by
the use of a really good shampoo. The
easiest to use and quickest drying
shampoo that we. can recommend to
our readers is one that brings out all
the natural beauty of the hair and
may be enjoyed at very little expense,
by dissolving a teaspoonful of can
throx which can be obtained from any
druggists, in 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 to the top of
the head This, when rubbed into
the scalp and onto every strand of
hair, chemically dissolves all impuri-
ties. 1t is very soothing and cooling
in its action, as well as beneficial to
both scalp and hair. After rinsing out
the lather so created, you will find the
scalp is fresh, clean and free from
dandruff. while the hair dries quickly
and evenly developing bright luster
and soft f1uffiness that makes it
seem very heavy.-Advertise

Key to Business Revival Lies at Home

The United States should look to itself for its
future prosperity 1t can have revival of bust
ness without depending waiting interna-
tional commerce and the rehabilitation of Europe
In short, the American people are their own GUS
toners.
This was the doctrine presented by George
M. Reynolds, chairman of the continental and
commercial banking group of Chicago, in an ad-
dressbefore the convention of the Miller's Ma
tional federation.
Foreign trade for the United States is both
necessary and desirable" Reynolds said. How
ever, in seeking a lead for the revival of Ameri-
can business. attention should not be focused on
foreign trade to the exclusion of domestic bust
ness. American exports have constituted only
some or s per cent of the total sales of this
country during the period of maximum exports.
THE domestic market is definitely under
American control to be revived if proper thought
and action are taken. clear ray of hope offers
in the thought that measures looking toward
business revival can be taken at home and at
once. This does not mean that foreign trade,
particularly in certain commodities, is not i'm
portant. It does mean that the key to business
revival lies in the domestic market and more
normal foreign trade than that of 1915 to 1920.
The United States can sell in any open mar

it exces. There will be continuing pressure to
export goods to Europe. 1t seems reasonably
certain that the United States will have a favor
able balance of trade with Europe for some time,
though appreciably less than is indicated by fig
ures for the war and after-war periods. A con-
tinuation Of abnormal exports cannot be ex-
pected.
The prospect for the revival of American
business lies in the increase of business in the
domestic markets and in a foreign trade main
tanned along more natural lines and developed in
a more normal way than is sometimes urged by
the proponents of plans for the artificial stimu-
lation of foreign trade

Young Workers Need Health Protection

Children who go to work between IA and Is
years of age need special protection if they are
to reach manhood and womanhood with good
health and well developed bodies. The United
States department of Labor, through the chill
drens bureau, has just issued report called
Physical Standards for Working Children in
which a committee of eleven physicians ap-
pointed by the childrens bureau explain how the
health of children may be protected.
An effective means of protection lies in the
adoption of physical standards which all chill
dren entering industry are required by law to
meet. Eighteen states now have a law requiring
children to be examined before going to work.
These states are: Alabama, Arizona, California,
Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Iowa, Kentucky,
Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jer-
sey, New Hampshire, New York, Ohio, Pennsyl-
vania, Rhode Island, and West Virginia.
The most comprehensive of these laws re-
quires that child shall be of normal develop
ment for his age in sound health and physically
fit for the occupation which he is about to enter
But unless examining physicians have definite
standards by which to test development and
sound health, under-developed and physically de-
fective children are likely to go to work early to
their own serious disadvantage, in spite of ex-
cellent laws intended for their protection. The
committee, therefore, has undertaken to define
what constitutes normal development and sound
health for children applying for working papers.
The report of the committee contains mini
mum standards of height and weight for speci-
fled ages, based on the most Trustworthy expert
ence and present-day practice. It also lists de-
fects for which children should be refused certfi-
Gates, remedial defects for which they should be
refused certificates pending correction, and con-
ditions requiring supervision under provisional
certificates for periods of three months may be
issued The points which examining physicians
should cover if adequate protection is to be given
the working child are given in detail in the re-
