HOW TO TAKE GOOD
CARE OF YOUR HAIR
Nothing spoils your good looks
bo much as homely hair stringy,
dulUcolored, harsh. Nothing adds
to good looks so much as beautiful
hair soft, silky, wavy and glossy.
No matter how beautiful your hair is
now, you can Improve its good looks,
by using Harmony Hair Beautlfler.
If your hair is homely and ugly now,
Harmony Hair Beautlfler will make
It softer, silkier, glossier, more beau
tiful in every way. It also makes
It easier to put up and helps it to
"stay put." Its rich rose odor hides
the unpleasant, oily smell of the
hair. Harmony Hair Beautlfler is
rightly named; it beautifies the hair.
Very easy to apply simply sprin
kle a little on your hair each time
before brushing it. It contains no
oil, and will not change the color of
the hair, nor darken gray hair.
To keep your hair and scalp dandruff-free
and clean, use Harmony
Shampoo. This pure liquid shampoo
gives an instantaneous rich lather
that immediately penetrates to every
part of hair and scalp, Insuring a
quick and thorough cleansing.
Washed off just as quickly, the en
tiro operation takes only a few mo
ments. Contains nothing that can
harm the hair; leaves no harshness
or stickiness just a sweet-smelling
cleanliness.

"My boy," said Bnlllngton Bllger,
the eminent speculator In stocks. "I
Intend to do something this year that
I havo never done before. I have
never taken much stock in this Christ
mas foolishness. It seems to me that
people carry It to an absurd extreme;
but, as I have said, I am going to
break away from my custom this
year. You aro helping to support your
widowed mother,
are you not?"
Tho boy who
marked the quo
tations up on the
b i g blackboard
made a strong
effort to conceal
his emotion as he
answered:
"Yes, sir. I al
ways carry my
earnings home to
her."
"That is noble
of you. You de
serve tho highest
praise for your
thoughtf u 1 n o s s.
A mother who
has such a son
should be very proud of him, and I
have no doubt that your mother fully
appreciates your worth. What I start
ed to say a moment ago was that I in
tend to do somothlng to encourage
you in your work something to prove
to you that I wish you well and that,
however cold I may have at times
appeared, I am kind at heart."
"Oh, thank you, sir," said tho boy.
"Mother will bo proud when she
learns that I have been able to win
your respect."
"I like to hear a boy talk as you
talk," the eminent gentleman contin
ued. "A boy who is glad for his
mother's sake to win the approval of
others may always be depended upon
to give a good account of himself.
You may not have suspected It, but I
have for a long time been watching
you. I have noticed that you do not
smoke cigarettes;
that you use lit
tle slang; that
you pay strict at
tention to your
duties and al
ways show a
proper deference
to those above
you."
"M y mother
told mo when I
started out In the
world," tho boy
replied, "to al
ways keep away
from bad habits
and be respect
ful to those who
had the right to
be treated re
spectfully."
"Good. It Is evident that you have
an estimable mother. With such a
mother and such a character a3 you
seem to possess I have no doubt that
you will succeed in life. It would
be a pity to disturb your self-reliance
by giving you money. I shall not do
that. I do not believe in giving money
to people anyhow. It is a bad prac
tice. There aro other ways of ex
tending help that are much more ef
fective much better for those who.
receive It Now It 1b my purpose to'
do something for you."
"I I hardly know how to thank
you, sir."
"Oh, never mind that, my boy. The
most eloquent thanks are not always
expressed In
words. Thero aro
other ways of
showing apprecia
tion. So don't
bother yourself
if words happen
to fall you. Thero
are indications
that this Is go
ing to be an old
fashioned winter,
and I know what
It Is to bo tor
tured by the cold.
You have seen
that I have a
now ovorcoat
with a Persian
lamb collar and
real mink lining,
have you not?"
"Yes, Bir."
"You would bo surprised if I were
to tell you how much It cost But I
need not dwell upon that. I have
found it extremely comfortable. It
has caused mo to feel sorry for others
who cannot afford such coats. I
think it must be the Christmas spirit
that has come to mo. With the col
lar of my warm coat turned up so
that it covers my ears I am able to
keep comfortable In the coldest
weather."
The boy felt a lump rising In his
throat and he was compelled to wink
rapidly to keep back his tears of
gratitude.
"This morning," Mr. Bilger con
tinued, "I found a pair of pluBh ear
muffs that I used last winter, and I
havo decided to present them to you."

then decide upon any ono person who
stood out above all others In point of
activities in behalf of International
peace. Now, however, Senator Root
gets last year's prize. It comes to
him In recognition of his services in
tho pacification of tho Philippines and
Cuba and In the handling of the American-Japanese
dispute.
Root a Government Maker.
Ellhu Root was appointed secre
tary of war by President McKinley at
tho close of the Spanish wnr to suc
ceed Secretary Alger and was reap
pointed by President Roosevelt. As
secretary of war the handling of the
difficult problems of what had to do
with Cuba, Porto Rico and the Phil
ippines was loft largely to his judg
ment The Cubans had had no gov
ernmental experience. Tho American
authorities, largely under tho direc
tion of Secretary Root, trained tho en
tiro . personnel of the Cuban govern
ment and handed it over to the island
republic In working order when the
American troops wero withdrawn.
Secretary Root resigned from tho
cabinet Feb. 1, 1904, and was succeed
ed by Mr. Taft, then governor of the
Philippines, lie returned to President
Roosevelt's cabinet ns secretary of
stato July 1, 1005, succeeding the late
John Hay, and remained in that posi
tion until early in 1009.
As secretary of stato in 1905 Mr.
Root negotiated the first eight of the
general arbitration treaties cnterSd
Into by tho United States. Three years
later ho negotiated twice that number,
and his speeches in tho senate have all
been on tho side of treaty obligations
and arbitral settlement
His Work In South America.
In 1900 Mr. Root went to South
America, primarily to attend the In
ternational conference of the Ameri
can republics at Rio do Janeiro, but
also to remove old prejudices and to
pave the way for a better feeling to
ward the United States.- Ho visited
tho chief capitals of South America,
ond everywhere was received with dis
tinction. In 1907 ho went to Mexico, nlso as
secretary of state, and met President
Diaz and the leading statesmen of the
country, again with tho Idea of pro
moting International good will.
Simultaneously with tho recent No
bel nward to Senator Root, It was an
nounced at Tho Hague that ho bad
been selected as a member of tho court
of arbitration to which are to bo sub
mitted tho claims of British, French
and Spanish subjects In regard to prop-
