had a unique opportunity Of forming
a more exact idea OF the American

read the two very characteristic
speeches delivered at the tomb OF the
unknown soldier. :
From one end to the other Of these
speeches of a diplomat and Of a mill

idealism and the same spiritual en-
thusiasm.

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 re-
tain and develop their charms. In
quiry develops the information that
in hair care they find it dangerous to
shampoo with any makeshift hair
cleanser. Tho majority say that to
have the best hair wash and scalp
stimulator at cost of about three
cents. one need only get n package
OF canthrox from your druggist; dis.
solve n teaspoonful in cup OF hot
water. and your shampoo is ready.
This makes enough shampoo liquid to
apply It to all the hair instead of Just
the top of the head. After it's use
the hair dries rapidly, with uniform
color. Dandrun. excess oil and dirt
arc quickly dissolved and entirely dis
appear when you rinse the hair,
After this your hair will be SO nuffy
1t Will look much heavier than 1t is.s
It's luster and ,softncss will delight
you. while the stimulated scalp gains
the health which insures hair growth.
