FRIDAY. JULY 22. 1921

The more we think of it, the more
firmly convinced are we that it is
folly to preach hard times. Your
preaching works a depression upon
those about you and it will not be
long before. the wave you have started
will break upon your own shore. You
put fear into the other fellow. He,
in: turn, puts fear. into others; they
pass on the word. Finally your own
.busines ssuffers sl,rihp. You could,
if you would, discover the source of
Jour own business depression--you
stnted the cry OF hard times and the
cry has come back to you!

THE LEAGUE AT, WORK

By the time President. Harding's
Disarmament Conference finishes it's
discussion Of the best means of as
surinE the peace Of the world, the
League of Nations, which is now in
session and fnnctioning with great
encouragement to 'the bestminds"
OF all lands, except the United
States, will doubtless have prepared
a'-wurkinG plan the, Disarmament
Conference will be willing to adopt
without dottiug an or crossing t.
That is what the. Conference
should do and wotild do but for the
miserable politicians who have
brought dfshonor to this country.
We cannot tell, OF course, as neither
the. President nor his Secretary of
State, Mr.. Hughes, has made any di-
rect. or explicit statement showing
20 what extent George Harvey had
spoken their purpose when he told
the British people, at the dinner of
the Pilgrims in London-that the
present Governments of the United
States 'will not have anything what
ever to do with the League or with
any commission or committee ap-
pointed by it or responsible to it, di-
rectiy or indirectly, openly or fur
lively"
Either Colonel Harvey spoke for
the Government at Washington or
he did not, and the Government at
Washington should say which it was.
OF one thing, we think, the Govern
ment may be assured-the League
Of Nations has been established and
is at work. 'The United States will
be 'member of the League, which
can. do without the United States as
we'll as the United States can do
without the League. 1t may be
four years before we can go in; but
we will go in.-Spartanburg Journal.

the right foot and when, for instance
the pedal is pressed down one notch
all the Cs are raised one-half tone
and if pressed into the second notch
they are raised one whole step.
Quality of Tone.
The tone of the harp is brilliant.
especially when played in'sharps, altho
less sweet because of the strings being
shortened by the pedals. 1t there
fore follows that in flats the tones
are richer The harp is capable OF
effects that cannot be produced on
piano or any other instrument for
that matter. For instance, harmonles
are produced by placing the ball OF
the hand on the middle of the string
ana setting it in vibration by the
thumb or the first two fingers of the
same hand thus producing mysterl-
ously beautiful tones. So-called guitar
tones are produced by tvSanging the
strings sharply with the finger nails
near the. sound board. Damping is
effected by laying the palm against
the string in the bass and the back
of the finger in the tribe. The glis
sando is effected by sliding the thumb
or finger along the strings after be-
forehand tuning the harp by pendal-
ing into whatever chords are desired.
The Lyon & Healy harp is an i'm
provement on the harp above dis
cuSSed. AND the particular INSTRUMENT
played by Salvi is reputed to be the
most beautiful and most expensive in
the world, costing $4,000. Mr.. Salvi
will play in the city auditorium to-
morrow evening, November 2, and
there is in store for all who hear him
a never to be forgotten treat. His
coming here to play affords Topeka
music lovers not only an opportunity
to hear the greatest harp playing mas
ter of the day. but also to hear and
view with justifiable American pride
a phenomenal achievement of Ameri-
can inventive genius.

Alkali In Soap
Bad For the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully,
if you want to keep your hair looking
its best. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much alkali.
This dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle, and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
MuIsified cocoanut oil shampoo
(which is pure and greaseless), and
is better than anything else you can
use.
One or two teaspoonsful of mulsified
will cleanse the hair and scalp thor
oughly. Simply moisten the hair with
water and rub it in. 1t makes an
abundance of rich, creamy lather,
which rinses out easily, rem owing every
particle of dust. dirt, dandruff and
excessive oil The hair dries quickly
and evenly. and it leaves the scalp soft,
and the hair fine and silky, bright,
lustrous. fluffy and easy to manage.
You can get Mulsified cocoanut oil
shampoo at any pharmacy, it's very
cheap, and a few ounces will supply
every member of the family for
months. Be sure your druggists gives
you Mulsified.-Adv.

The Harp
BY DANIEL MULLER.

In 1910 Sebastien Erard patented
what is known as the double action
harp. 1t was then thought that he
had perfected it to a degree impossible
to surpass. 1t was even likened unto
the violin built by Cremona masters.
The origin of the harp as known be-
fore Erard has been traced to the
thirteenth century before Christ.
AItho in form it did not altogether re-
semble the modern harp, since paint
ing discovered by James Bruce on a
wall at Thebes depicted two musicians
playing harps standing at least six
feet high One of these harps was
bow shaped and the other triangular.
The modern harp is possessed of
intricate mechanism requiring great
skill and lightning quick action on the
part of a performer in order to pro-
duce the necessary color effects. For
instance, a double action harp has
seven pedals and can raise or lower
each string one whole tone. The ma
turaI scale on a harp is that of c flat
major and usually the compass is six
and one-half octaves. Each of the
pedals influences one note of the scale
thruout the pitch. From the left side
it has the d. and b pedals worked
with the left foot. and on the right

TRAIN YOUR HAIR AS AN
ACTRESS DOES

No class of people devotes as much
time to beauty as do actresses, and no
class must be more careful to retain
and develop their charms. INQUIRY
develops the information that in hair
care they find it dangerous to sham
poo with any makeshift hair cleanser
The majority say that to have the best
hair wash and scalp stimulator at a
cost of about three cents, one need
only get a package of canthrox from
your druggist; dissolve a teaspoonful
in a cup of water and your shampoo
IS ready. This makes enough shampoo
liquid to apply it to all the hair in
stead of just the top of the head. After
its use the hair dries rapidly, with uni
form color. Dandruff, excess oil and
dirt are quickly dissolved and entirely
disappear when you rinse the hair
After this your hair will be so fluffy'
it will look much heavier than it is
Its luster and softness will delight you
while the stimulated scalp gains thd
health which insures hair growth
