DELIGHTFUL HAIR WASH

You can enjoy a delightful sham
poo with very little effort and for a
very trifling cost, If you get from
your druggists a package of can
throx and dissolve a teaspoonful in
a 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 the top of the
head. Your shampoo is now ready
lust pour a little at a time on the
scalp and hair until both are en-
tirely covered by the daintily per-
fumed preparation that thoroughly
dissolves and removes every bit of
dandruff, excess oil and dirt. After
rinsing the hair dries quickly with
a fIuffiness that makes it seem heavier
than it is. and takes on rich luster
and a softness that makes arranging
it a p1easure.-Adv.

SWING WITH. RINGING BELLS
Men Of Nerve Required to Call the
Faithful Of Spanish City to Z
>.'s Their Duties.

In ordinary circumstances bell ring
ing is peaceful occupation to which
white.haired, venerable men seem
ideally suited. But the men who ring
the bells in the famous Giralda of Sc
vile must be young men of unusual
agility and steadiness of nerve.
When the city is to make merry on
feast days the ringers climb to the
belfry, and then, by the aid of rope
and steps cut in the wall of the tower,
each mounts to the bell he is to ring,
and stands astride its brazen Shout
ders. Then he presses the bell with
his feet, holding on to the crossplece
on which it Is swung. NV. Z
Gradually the great bell sways to
the movement Of the man astride IT.,
until it acquires momentum that
swings the hammer, first gently, and
then with increasing force, as the
sweep of the bell widens. until the5a
is trembling with the blows that strike
the massive sides. 80 .s;.-.rt. 4 :
The riders bend and rise and fall
with the-action of the bells, now ap-,
pearing to the observer from the street
to be In a horizontal position as the
bell reaches the limit Of It's swing, and
again riding gracefully to an upright
position as the monster sways back
ward with another laundering note.
The most extraordinary part of the
daring performance IS the sight of the
bell ringer calmly swaying the bell
while it hangs far out of the belfry
over the city; for the outward swing
sends the counterpoise with the ringer
into space beyond the arch.

First Adding Machines.

The first machine to directly per-
farm the operations of addition and
subtraction was one invented by Pas
cal in 1642. 1t was known as the ina
chine arithmetique." Twenty years
later Lelbniz attempted the construe
ton Of a, machine for making elabo-
rate astronomical calculations; and
various other attempts were made in
succeeding years, but with little sue
cess. Between 1922 and 1912 Charles
Rabbage designed his machine for cal
culating mathematical tables by the
method Of differences" About 1850
Thomas Of Colmnr invented a success
full calculating machine known as the
arithmometer in which the numbers
were inscribed on cylinders moved by
trains of toothed wheels. In recent
years a large number OF successful
machines have been devised. 5
