Famous Beauty Tells
Hair Curling Secrets
"I cannot too strongly condemn the
use of the hot curling-Iron," says Rita
Moya. "It means death to the hair
eventually. Moreover It Is entirely un
necessary. The hair can be made beau
tifully wavy and curly to any extent
stid in any form desired, merely by
using such a simple thing; as pure sil
merlne. This perfectly harmless liquid
should bo applied to the hair with a
clean tooth brush at night. In the
morning you will find that a very beau
tiful natural wave and curllness has
resulted, and the effect will last a con
siderable time.
"The liquid silmerine is very bene
ficial and is not sticky or greasy.
Xeither does it streak the hair or stain
ihe scalp. You need not get more than
few ounces from your druggist. The
liest way is to divide the front and
back hair into from four to six strands
nnd to moisten each strand thoroughly
from root to tip."—Advertisement.
How Thin People
Caa Pit on Flesh
Thin men and women—that big,
hearty, filling dinner you ate last night.
What became n f all fat-producing
nourishment it contained? You haven't
gained in weight one ounce. That food
nassed from your body like unburned
coal through an open grate. The ma
terial was there, but your food doesn't
work and stick, and the plain truth is
you liardlv get enough nourishment
from your meals to pay for the cost of
c ooking. This Is true of thin folks the
world over. Your nutritive organs,
your functions of assimilation, are prob
ably sadly out of gear and need recon
struction.
Cut out the foolish foods and funny
sawdust diets. Cut out everything but
the meals you are eating and eat with
every one of those a single Sargol tab
let. In two weeks note the difference.
Let the scales be the judge. Five to
eight good solid pounds of healthy,
"stay-there" fat may be the net result.
•Sargol aims to charge weak, stagnant
blood with millions of fresh new red
blood corpuscles—to give the blood the
carrying power to deliver every ounce
of fat-making material in your food to
ever;.- part of your body. Sargol. too.
mixes with your food, to prepare it for
the blood in an easily assimilated form.
Thin people tell how they have gained
all the way from 10 to 25 pounds a
month while taking Sargol and say that
the new flesh stays put. Sargol tablets
are a careful combination of six of the
best assimilative elements known to
chemistry. They come 40 tablets to a
package, are pleasant, harmless and in
expensive. and G. A. Gorgas and all
other good druggists in this vicinity
sell them subject to an absolute guar
antee of weight increase or money
back as found in every large package.—

Oil. 01-' KOHI2IN
Lack of fresh air weakens the oxy
«cn-carryinß power of the blood, the
liver becomes sluftslsh, fat accumulates
and the action of many of the vital
organs are hindered thereby. The heart
action becomes weak, work is an effort
and the beauty of the figure is de
stroyed.
Fat put on by indoor life is un
healthy and if nature is not assisted in
throwing it off by Increasing the oxy
gen-carrying power of the blood, a seri
ous rase of obesity may result.
When you feel that you are getting
too stout, take the matter in hand at
once. Don't wait until your figure has
become a joke and your health ruined
through carrying around a burden of
unsightly and unhealthy fat.
Spend as much time as you possibly
can in the open air: breathe deeply, and
get from any druggist a box of oil of
korein capsules: take one after each
meal and one before retiring at night.
Weigh yourself every few days and
keep up the treatment until you are
•lown to normal. Oil of korein is abso
lutely harmless, is pleasant to take,
helps the digestion and is designed to
increase the oxygen-carrying power of
the blood.
Even a few days' treatment should
show a noticeable reduction in weight.
There is nothing better.—Advertise

Are You Sure

Prevent Grippe. Pneumonia and l.ung;
Trouble,
People who take cold easily and
whose colds seem to "hang on." settling
in the throat, lungs or chest, are apt to
neglect themselves as soon as they feel
a little better. Such colds often leave
the throat or lungs in a greatly weak
ened state and before he fully realizes
it the patient is down with grippe,
pneumonia or other serious lung
trouble Such ailments are usually pre
ventable where timely action is taken.
At the first sign of cough or cold go
to George A. Gorgas or any good drug
store and get a large bottle of Oxidaze
'Tablet foim). Carry a few doses of
these tablets about with you every day
and each hour or so allow one of them
to slowly melt in your mouth.
Oxidaze is a physician's prescription
a pleasant, powerful combination of
antiseptic healing agents that contain
no habit-forming drugs. Mingling with
the saliva, its juices heal the inflamed
membranes gently but promptly, not
only stopping a dry. hoarse or tight
rough, but checking the formation of
phlegm in the throat and bronchial
tubes, thus ending the persistent loose
• ough. Oxidaze Is guaranteed to do
these things or George A. Gorgas and
other leading druggists are authorized
to refund the purchase price. If you
are "subject to colds.' use Oxidaze Tab

pocket or purse all the time.—Adver

TUESDAY EVENING,
SCHOOLS IN NEED
. OF MORE MONEY
Dr. Schaeffer Says Appropria
tions Have Not Matched
Their Growth
Sharp ciitieism of tendency to in
clude military training in the schools
of the state and objections to the
present system of distribution of the
State appropwution to the common
schools as not suited to the tremen
dous development of the educational
activities of Pennsylvania are among
salient features of the annual report
of Dr. Nathan C. Schaefter. State Su
perintendent of Public Instruction,
sent to the printer to-day.
Dr. SchaetTer's opinion of military
training is well known and he prefaces
his criticism by saying that whenever
"a new idea enters the skull of a re
former the aid of the schools is
straightway invoked. It is all right,
he says, to expend public money for
vocational education, but he doubts
whether the occupation of the soldier
should be made an Integral- part of
vocational education. He attacks mili
tary exercises in schools as one-sided
and says that we should note the Swiss,
who do not start to train their youth
with muskets until they have reached
the twentieth year, or when the Ameri
can high school student has finished
his education.
The superintendent says that the
schools of the state have reached
colossal proportions and the State Is
helping to get better buildings and
more teachers, encouraging agricul
tural and industrial education, twenty
counties having schools for the teach
ing of farming and 10,000 persons be
ing in the industrial schools. The
decision of the Attorney General in
the employment certificate question
lias simplified the continuation school
mailer to a certain extent and prepa
rations for such schools are under
way.
On the subject of State aid for edu
cation the doctor says that the appro
priations have not kept pace with
population. The annual expenditure
for schools is $58,114,225.61, which
exceeds the expenditures of the fed
eral government before the war, and
the number of pupils is larger than
the population of uny one of twenty
two American States. The enrollment
is 1,461,937 and there are 150,000
more in private and parochial schools.
