Just now a lively suffrage campaign is being waged in several of the
Eastern States, and in New Jersey James R. Nugent, who is styled a mach.ne
politician, has stirred up a hornets' nest by saying right out in an open meet-

since it gave women the vote." ,

We once heard a San Antonio woman say she did not think the women

Sterndorff and listen to her talking calmly about the work she had laid out for herself
this summer; work which means hard practice and close application in the preparation
of difficult music which lias not been attempted in San Antonio before. And all of
this when everybody is saying: "We cannot work in Texas in the summer time, Mie
heat saps our energy." W..» predict Miss Sterndorff's motto has always peen ''«o
your best for your own sake.' but this does not mean that she thinks only of herself
for she has most unselfish, philanthropic aims and these are to help young music
teachers to succeed.
Miss Sterndorff speaks with the authority of one who has attained success ana
she says "go slow and be .thoroughly prepared in every line of work which you may

TODAY'S BEAUTY HINTS
Nothing excites mon'1 criticism than u
woman with her face all daubed with fa ®
powder in hur desire to hide a faulty or
an aging skin. Instead of using powdar.
which clogs and enlarges the pores, it U
far better to use a good face lotion tliat
will improve and permanently benefit tii«
skin. Bv dissolving four ounces of ftpur-
tnax in a half pint of hot water you lniii
make an inexpensive lotion that will do
wonders as a skin whitener and complexion
beaiitlfier. It removes all sblninpss, s;n-
lowness and roughness, and gives the skin
a smooth, velvet v tone, while it does not
rub off easily like powder, nor does it
show on the skin.
11 y washing the hair with a teaspoouful
of Vanthrox dissolved in a cup of hot
water, afterward rinsing thoroughly wit ft
clear water, one finds that It dries quickly
and evenly, is unslreaked, bright., soft
and very fluffy, so fluffy, in fact, that it
looks more abundant than it is and so sort
that arranging it becomes a pleasure. Thia
simple, inexpensive shampoo cleanses tho
hair and scalp thoroughly of all dandruff
and dirt, and leaves a clean, wholesome
feeling. All scalp irritation will disappear,
and the hair will be brighter and glossier
than ever before. (Adv.)
