12 HE CHARLOTTE NEWS, CHARLOTTE, N. C, FRIDAY AFTERNOON, SEPTEMBER 23, 1921. School Shoes EARTffOMEBROBLEM By MRS. ELIZABETH SL THOMPSON . . : i r- BEAUTIFYING SHAMPOOS. I sometimes wonder whether every woman who carelessly washes her hair whenever the notion takes her qufce realizes the beautifying value of thy shampoo. The hair should never mere ly be washed. It should be prepared for the shampoo by an oil massage and the shampoo itself should be a beauty treatment. About every six weeks or about f;v ery other shampoo time the ends of the hair should be singed and clipped to keep them from splitting. The night before the shampoo a little oil or sul phur ointment should be massaged thoroughly into the scalp. The sham poo itself should van' according to th-3 character of the hair. A scalp coated with dandruff should be given an egg shampoo or a tar sham poo, the last of course being a sham poo with tar soap. Dry hair should be given an unusually thorough oil mas sage and should be washed with casti.e soap dissolved in hot water so it forms a tick liquid. Very oily hair can be washed with this same liquid soap and should have the soap used three times before the hair is rinsed. Even dry hair should be soaped twice, for the first time is never enough to get all the dirt and grease from hair and scalp. Lusterless hair will improve enor mously with the henna shampoo which adds life and lustra and richness of coloring without actually changing, the shade of the hair. In any shampoo a valuable thing is to add an antiseptic to the water in which you wash and rinse. The scalp should not only be clean but antiseptically clean at the end of the shampoo. "While the hair is drying shake and massage it. Marian Massage the chest each day with cocoa butter. Deep breathing is also excellent for building up the mus cles of the chest and bust.

If you can't find a market for your product, make one. This is tne underlying pnncipia of a new voluntary organization re cently formed in Arizona conptr dis trict. For months copper has been a drug on the market. There is a surplus of metal and the great copper mining in dustry of this State has stagnated; men have been thrown rue of employment; great pieces of evpensive machinery ly ing idle and depreciating in value with out producing anything for their own ers. Now comes the Copper and Brass Re search organization headed by R. Ij Agassiz, president of the Calumet and Hecla Mining company, and number ing among its members virtually all the great copper mining companies of the United States. The purpose of the organization is to create new uses for copper so that the surplus now on the market may be cleaned up and a demand created for the ore still underground. ' One new tise for copper is expected to be found in Arizona next year if plins for adapting copper for use in manufac ture of automobile license plates ma terialize. It also is proposed to use copper plates in marking automobile highways. TVinmncnn T am a. eirl of fore dinner was served, he came to the table witn nanas ana nans so buncu Dear Mrs nineteen years and have been keeping steady company with a very nice young man for over two years, fter I had gone with him for about s year he asked me to be -his wife, but I refused as I did not knw whether I really loved, him or1 not. A year has elapsed since then and I find that I love him. He has 7-ot asked me since, for when we were talk ing about it he said, "Anytime you make up your mind just say :ny vvord and we will be married." I am too reserved to do that. How shall I do about it to make him under stand that I really love and want him. He often speaks of marriage, but never asks me outrieht. ANXIOUS. The young man is wrong in trying to force you to say that you will marry him. AY hen he sees by your actions that you love him he ought to ask you again. Be sweet and lovable and wait for him to say something further. You are very young and can afford to wait. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I have been married about eighteen years to a man who is good and generous to his fam ily, but he is moody and slovenly in his habits and dress. At times it seems as though I cannot continue to live wTith him and retain my own self-respect. The children are so sensitive to it that they will not invite their friends to the house. He is a man of means and leisure and has always lived amidst surroundings of refinement, but in spite of my pleadings he Is growing worse all the time- For instance, last Sunday, althovigh we had a guest of distinction for dinner and I asked him to dress an hour be- 3fr X GROWING DEAF WITH HEAD NOISES? TRY THIS ' If you are growing hard of hearing and fear, Catarrhal Deafness or if y uu have roaring, rumbling, hissing noises in your ears go to your druggist .and get 1 ounce of Parmint (double strength), and add to it 1-4 pint of hot water and a little granulated sugar. Take 1 tbalespoonful four timea a day. This will often bring quick relief from the distressing head noises. Clog ged nostrils should open, breathing be come easy and the mucus stop drop ping into the throat. It is easy to prepare, costs little and is pleasant to take- Anyone who is threatened with Catarrhal Deafness or who has hcd noises should give this prescription a trial. so it was nauseating no collar, filthy trousers, slippers and no stockings; fur ther, as he did not care of dessert, he got up and left the table without even an apologj. The children are losing all their re spect for him, and in spite of using all my w-ill power he is growing more and more repellant to me. It is parti cularly hard on account of the social position we have always held, but which we are fast losing, due, I am sure, to his slovenly habits. When in despair I have tried to point out to him where it was leading us, and the effect it was hav ing on the children, but it only made him very angry. He tells me I know what I can do if I don't like it. I am independent financially. What shall I do? IN DESPAIR Stop nagging your husband and look for his lovable qualities. The most pathetic of all characters is the man who has been driven to slovenly habits because he will not be forced through nagging into habits picked out for him. Praise for one good point goes far in bringing out other good points. There is just as much chance that you are losing your social position be cause you are unpleasant, with your hus band or because the children do not respect him as that he is slovenly. You can do much to keep his clothes in good condition by sending them to the clean ers, putting his shirts in the wash Avhen they are soiled, slipping clean handkerchiefs into his poe'eets in place of dirty ones and then forgetting all about what you have done and not even mentioning how much better he looks. Never criticise sg'in, nut lok for worth and kindliness in the man and you will be a much happier and much more popula.- family. We are ready with the best shoes for .

SCHOFEELD'S SONS COMPANY MACON GEORGIA CHEERING DOES HELP THIS MACHINE SHOWS Philadelphia, Pa., Sept. 23. United Press.) If you're one of those persons who claim that cheering at a football or baseball game is wasted breath and energy, prepare yourself to be convert ed to the great throng who do the cheer ing. There's a machine out at the "Cni-versitj'- of Pennsylvania that proves, according to psychologists that cheer ing does help a whole lot and in many cases may be the means of winning the game. Cheering brings out a last, al most superhuman effort on the part of the cheered, according to psychologists. The machine consists of a little drum to which a marker is attached. To the marker is tied a string, the other end of which is tied to the finger of the subject. Then a 1,800 gram weight is also tied to the subject's finger and he is instructed to lift the weight up and down, until the finger can lift no longer. No urging or cheering is done the first time. Then, during a second experiment, when the finger' shows signs of fatigue the subject is urged to "buck up, old boy, and show some pep" and "just hold out for a while longer." The mark ings on the drum show that the sub ject has been able to lift the weight many times more in the second trial than, in the first when no cheering was done. iW p Clothing for the Family J3 RAVELERS TO OPEN BIG OFFICES HERE A Charlotte branch of the Travelers' Insurance company to have direct I charge of North Carolina business, is to be opened here at once, with offices in the basement of the Realty Building.
