aster, which has thrown both
the army and navy into
mourning. the army and navy re-
ception at the White House. which
was to have taken place tonight,
has been postponed until wednes-
day sevening. April 10.
Nearly 1000 invitations had been
issued to the reception, which gave
promise Of being perhaps the pref
test of the four state levees. but
the President and Mrs. Harding
both feel that a reception to the
> army and navy would be out OF
place at a time when they and
guests are feeling such deep gT7er
over the tragedy.
II was necessary to delay the re-
ception until April 10 because Lent
3intervenes.
MARCH has been selected as
AVA the date Of the Postmaster
Generals dinner in honor of the
President and Mrs. Harding. In
the natural order Of precedence
this would have taken place
sooner, but for the fact that the

has been away on a well-deserved
holiday. On March z the Presi-
dent and Mrs. Harding will dine
with the Secretary of Commerce
and Mrs. Hoover, and on Febru-
airy 2S the Secretary Of Agricul-
ture and Mrs. Wallace are enter
tanning for them.

T0DAYs BEAUTY TALK

You can enjoy a delightful
shampoo with very little effort
and for a very trifling cost, II
you get from your druggist a
package of canthrox and dissolve
a teaspoonful in a cup of hot
water. This makes a full cup Of
shampoo liquid-enough so II is
easy to apply 1t to all the hair
instead of just the top of the
head. Your shampoo is now
ready. Just pour a little at a
time on the scalp and hair until
both are entirely covered by the
daintily perfumed preparation that
thoroughly dissolves and removes
every bit OF dandruff, excess oil
and dirt. After rinsing, the hair
dries quickly with fluffiness
that makes II seem heavier than
lit In, and takes on a rich luster
and a softness that makes ar
ranging II a pleasure.

After soaking, only the most
soiled clothes need light rubbing
with dry Rinse.
Its big, lasting suds Is one secret
of Rinso's amazing power to dis
solve dirt. Hyou don't get lasting
suds you have not used enough
Rinse.
Your clothes don't need boiling
II you use Rinse. But If you like
to boil your white cottons, use
enough Rinse to get the suds you
like. Your clothes will be whittier
and more fragrant than ever.

Rid Yourself Of Constipation
With Delicious Nature Food !

Constipation can be relieved perma-
nently in the simplest way imaginable.
If you will eat Kellogg Bran, cooked
and krumbled, regularly, you will find
yourself freed from this annoying and
dangerous condition. Your physician
viii indorse the use of Kellogg Is Bran
for constipation. We guarantee that
it viii give permanent relief provided
you eat at least two tablespoonfuls
daily. For chronic cases, eat as much
az is necessary. Besides, it will free
the breath from disagreeable intestinal
odors and clear up pimply skins
You should know all about Kellogg p
Bran, cooked and krumbled. 1t Is not
only a wonderfully beneficial nature
food, but it is a delicious cereal, eaten
as cereal with milk or cream and
sugar, OF sprinkled on your favorite
cereal Kellogg 3 Bran is used in the

preparation Of many delectable foods
such as raisin bread, mullins, maca-

flavor as well as for its remarkable
health qualities.
KeIloggs Bran sweeps, eleanses and
purifes the bowels without irritation
or discomfort. 1t is as beneficial for
children as for older people. It does
wonderful work for everybody.
Pills and cathartics arc dangerous
TO health because they irritate the
delicate intestinal passages. And,
they never can and never will give per

temporary at best. What you need Is
permanent relief from constipation.

The unmusical snores still sounded

on the door and announced in loud
tones:

custom was established by the d9vouC
