A GREAT MUSICIAN'S -
HAIR SECRET
It was a man musician to whom wc
were talking, but every woman will
realize the \alue of his auswer to our
question, "What makes your hair so
abundant and so lustrous?" "Just
simple care, madam. I am as good to
it as I am to my hands." It was just
liis way of saying, "I keep it perfectly
clean. Since then we have found that
regular care and perfect cleanliness
means hair health and beauty. It is
not advisable when shampooing to use
a makeshift, but always use a prepara
tion made for shampooing only. You
can enjoy the best that is known for
about three cents a shampoo by get
ting a package of cairthrox from your
druggist; dissolve a teaspoonful in a
cup of hot water and your shampoo
is ready. After its use the hair dries
rapidly with uniform color. Dandruff,
excess oil and dirt are dissolved and
entirely disappear. Vour hair will be
so fluffy that it will look much heavier
than it is. Its lustre aud softness will
also delight you, while the stimulated
scalp gains the health which insures
hair growth.—Adv.
To Keep Skin Healthy,
Youthful, Wrinkleless
Now that the social season is here,
be especially careful to keep your skin
In line condition. You know how con
spicuous complexion defeats appear un
der the bright light of the drawing or
ball room. Also how very evident are
some makeups when similarly illumi
nated. I have myself discarded cos
metics entirely, using a process which
gives far better results, and which
leaves no trace on the skin. At night
I smear on a thin coat of ordinary mer
colized wax, washing it off next morn
ing. This gradually absorbs the devi
talized particles of surface skin: just
as gradually the more youthful skin be
neath conies forth, providing a com
plexion as clear, smooth and delicately
tinted as a young girl's. Get an ounce
of mercolized wax at your druggist's
and try tills remarkable treatment.
Remember, too, that wrinkles, even
the finer lines, are not ensily concealed
In a brilliantly lighted room. You can
quickly obliterate these hateful marks
by bathing your face in a solution of
powdered saxollte, 1 oz.. dissolved in
witch hazel, 'j pt. And your face won't
look sticky, as after using pastes.—

CLAIMS REWARD FOR HOHL

Altoona. Pa., Jan. 19. —Mrs. Laura

in a pistol due! in Cincinnati recently,
yesterday claimed the reward of |SOO
offered by the county for the arrest of
Hohl after the Union bank was held
up here. She says that had she not
given the police a tip Hohl would nev
er have been captured.
Chief of Police Cook and 'Policeman
Frank Babel, of Salem, have also
claimed the reward, but Mrs. Coffee
says the Ohio law prohibits them from
accepting it. The court nas ordered
the reward to be held six months.

| velopment,'' he said, "lias now the
saired opportunity of giving the State
a great moral uplift."
The new Executive made a plea for
good roads. 'He said it was a mistake
for State to have taken over the
9,000 miles of highway after the defeat
of the fifty million dollar boud issue
four years ago as the current revenue
will hot properly care for them. Rev
enue must be found, he added, for the
construction of a few great highways
routed between the great centers of
population. He made a number of sug
gestions for bettering the roads and
said that roads should cost less than
in the past, tie urged the abolition of
toll roads.
Mr. Brumbaugh declared he would
approve a "sane and practical" State
civil service law.
Enlarged School Fund Needed
With regard to education, Governor
Brumbaugh said that more attention
must be given to vocational education;
agriculture should receive more consid
eration in the schools; facilities for train
ing teachers should be improved; bet
ter supervision provided and higher
education encouraged. A greatlv en
larged permanent, school fund is needed,
he said.
The resolution proposing a constitu
tional amendment providing for wom
an suffrage should be passed by the
Legislature, tlhe Governor said, so as
to allow the voters to determine
whether women should vote.
"There is neither sense nor justice
in unstudied appropriations to our many
charitable institutions and agencies,''
said the Governor. He advocated more
careful consideration of this subject
and added that the bounty of the State.
"It should not again occur that the ob
ligation of lessening this bounty should
be placed upon the executive,'' the
Governor added.
Workmen's Compensation Law
The Governor favored a "fair and
certain" workmen's compensation law
and also urged that the present liability
law be amended to accord with a
workmen's compensation law.
The child labor laws of the State.
Dr. Brumbaugh said, are inadequate and
unsatisfactory. No child under 16
should be allowed to work, he said, and
continuation schools should be main
tained in industrial centers.
The Governor urged better housing
conditions, and on the question of
farming said that the State should pro
duce more tfhan it consumes. He sug
gested a reorganization of the State's
departments and bureaus which have to
do with matters pertaining to agricul
ture so as to separate the teaching
from the administrative functions.
Municipal Regulation
On municipal regulation the Govern
or favored legislation which will give
large cities more freedom of opportun
ity to develop. State laws should not
hinder, but help the cities.
He advocated conservation of the
natural resources of the State and in
this connection said that the people
ought to share in the marketing of the
State's natural assets and that "a rea
sonaible tax upon our great natural
resources as they flow to our markets
both fair and wise."

FiSHfcS WITH IIS WINGS.
The Cassowary Has a Way ot Its Own
For Capturing Its Prey.
Habits nt ilie cormorant and of oui
native fish hawk are generally known
Their methods of taking fish are ver\
much like those of birds of prey. Kti>
the cassowary fishes according to a
method of its own A well Known
naturalist witnessed its operations on
a river In the island <>f New Britain.
Qe saw a cassowary come down to
the waters edge and stand for some
minutes apparently watching the wa
ter carefully, ujhen stepped iuto the
river w tie re it w«» about three feet
deep and. partially squatting down,
spread its out. submerging them,
the feathers being spread antl rutlied
The bird remained uiotlouless and
kept its eyes closed as if In sleep, it
remained in this position for a quarter
of an hour. when, suddenly closing its
wings and straightening its feathers,
ft stepped out on the bank. Here It
■book Itself several times, whereupon
a quantity of small fishes fell out of
Its wings and from amid its feathers.
These the bird immediately picked np
and swallowed.
The fishes bad evidently mistaken
the feathers for a kind of weed that
grows in the water along the banks of
the river in this island and which
much resemble the feathers of the cas
sowary. The smaller fishes hide In
these weeds to avoid the larger ones
that prey on them.—St. Paul Woneer

Why the Earth Cannot Explode
The theory is frequently advanced
that plants and even suns sometimes
explode and that the earth may some
day blow up like a bombshell. No
celestial body the size of the earth
could possibly explode, if the entire
molten interior of our globe could be
replaced with nitroglycerin and deto
nated the explosion would not lift the
earth's crust. In other words, if we
assume that the crust of the earth is
from fifty to a hundred miles in thick
ness it would require something muoh
more powerful than even nitroglycerin
to burst the shell. It is necessary only
to do a little figuring to see that the
pressure of the earth's crust at a
depth of from fifty to a hundred miles
far exceeds the pressure exerted by the
most powerful high explosive.— Hud
son Maxim.

PAID TO GET THE GOODS
A claim once made on the explorer
Cameron in the neighborhood of (!a
--i boon, Africa, shows the weirdly pecul
iar workings of the native African'&
mind. Some of Cameron's possessions
proved unduly attractive to a native,
and lie determined on transferring (lie
ownership to himself. He according)?
paid another native -200 lo procure for
him the coveted goods.
The assistant took Hip money an I
did his best to earn it, but Mr. Cam
eron had perversely locked up tlio very
articles that, the fellow's employer had
set his heart upon. The man could not
carry out his bargain, and neither did
he feel that he could part With the
money. Therefore he ran off with it.
What more logical than that the man
who was the loser hy S2OO should ex
pect the explorer to make the loss good?
This he assuredly did expect.
He went to Mr. Cameron and told
him the story, demanding in thp first
place the S2OO which he (Cameron) hv
locking up his goods "had compelled the
complainant to lose and, secondly, the
actual price of the goo Is themselves
which but for these arbitrary measures
would now have been in his possession.
It is not stated that his expectations
were realized.—London Spectator.
No Heart in It
A Broad street employer of a term
peramental stenographer is a man of
practical sense and real kindness who
wants the girl lo succeed at her busi
ness. The other day he called her into
his private office and had a father!/
talk with her. Later one of her col
leagues in the same buildiug met her
in tihe elevator.
"Say, Gladys," she said, "what's
this about your boss having a heart to
heart talk with you this morning?"
"Heart nothing," responded tha
temperamental creature, tossing her
blond locks like an oriflamme of war,
"What he handed to me hadn't m>
more heart in it than there is in
slab of livpr at a t'Mi-cent
See? "
