June grain loading for the United
Kingdom had been suddenly placed on
the charter market here and - that at
least one of them had been taken at a
irate of 85 shillings, the beat price ever
paid for such a charter, was the rumor
on the front this morning. It was
also rumored that another vessel was
offering for Australian delivery and
would likely be taken for oats and
barley.
This afternoon's cables from the
United Kingdom are expected by local
exporters to bring confirmation of this
deal, At least two of the local ex
porters have been searching every
where for a vessel suitable to -carry
a cargo of grain to the United King
dom. The last price paid was said to
havs been. 80 shillings. M. H. Houser
. taking the British steamer Protesilaus
at that figure. She was on the spot,
having been released at Vancouver by
the" British admiralty after serving
4 seven months as a collier for the Pa-
cirio auiea fleet. She is finishing her
cargo at Seattle today and will sail to
night. Her rate was varied, some lum
ber at 125 shillings and canned salmon
' at equally high rates being Included.
. Should these charters be effected
they will prove a great boon to the
local grain handlers and exporters.
Sines the Norwegian Christian Bors
was sent away last week only the
British steamer Epsom remained for
them to look forward to. The work
on these three" vessels, the Tucatan and
Epsom, should she come here, will be
! appreciated by . them.

DON'T USE SOAP
ON YOUR HAIR
, When you wash your hair, don't
use soap. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos ccntrin too much alkslL
which is ' very injurious, a it dries
the scalp and. makes the hair 'brit
tle. The best thing to use Is Just plain
mulslfied cocoanut oil, for this Is '
pure and entirely greaseless. It's
very -heap, and beats soaps or any- .
thins; else all to pieces. You can
get this at any drug store, and a
few ounces will last the whole fam
ily for months. .
Simply moisten the hair with
water and -rub It in. about a tea-,

WHAT DYSPEPTICS
SHOULD EAT
A PBTSXCXAH'S A.STXCS.
"Indigestion and practically all
orms of stomach trouble are. nine
.imes out of ten. due to acidity; there
tore stomach sufferers should, wnen
jver possible, avoid eating food that is
vcid in its nature, or which by chem
cal action in the stomach develops
icidity. Unfortunately, such a rule
liminates most foods which a re pleas
nt to the taste as well as those which
.re rich in blood, flesh and nerve
.uilding properties. This is the rea
on wjiy dyspeptics and stomach suf
crers are usually so thin, emaciated
nd lacking in that vital energy which
an only come from a well fed body,
"or the benefit of those sufferers who
ave been obliged to exclude from
icir diet all starchy, sweet or fatty
aod. and are trying to keep up a mis
rable existence on gluten products. I
ould suggest that you should try a
ical of any food or foods which you
ay like, in moderate amount, taking
mediately afterwards a teaspoonful
f -bisurated magnesia in a little hot
r cold waer. This will neutralise
-Jiy acid which may be present, or
vhich jnay be formed, and instead of
he usual feeling of uneasiness and
ullness. yo.u will find that your food
grees with you. perfectly. RisurateH
, magnesia is doubtless the best ' food
orrective ana antacid Known, it has
D direct action on the stomach: but
,y neutralizing the acidity of the food
ntents. and thus removing the
jurce of the acid irritation which ln
ames the delicate stomach lining, it
jes more than could possibly be done
y any drug or medicine. As physi.
n. I believe in the use of medicine
henever necessary, but I must admit
at 1 cannot see the sense of dosing
t inflamed and irritated stomach with
-ugs instead of getting rid of the acid
-the cause of all the trouble. ' Oet a
:tle bisurated magnesia from your
uggist, eat what you want at vour
xt meal. - take some of the blsuraterf
.tagnesia as directed above, and . see

Trom Comlnr Out and Started

Mrs. D. II. Dorth of tl Clinton st..
whose hair was coming out so badly
that it was quite thin, learned rrom a
friend of a simple and easy way to
quickly stop her loss of hair and at
the same time to make new hair grow
in again. She made this remedy at
home at small cost and saved the ex
pense of scalp treatments by a hair
dresser. The recipe Mrs. Dorth used
was as follows: ''Mix together in an
8 oz. bottle os. of a good quality of
Bay Rum with 2 ox. of pure Lavona
de Composee and add about Vi drachm
of Menthol Crystals. Shake thorough
ly and allow to stand an hour before
using." Ths mixture is best applied
to hair and scalp by pouring a little
on a soft cloth and then by drawing
this cloth slowly through the bair tak
ing one small strand at a time. When
the head is quite thoroughly dampened
rub briskly into the scalp with the
finger tips until the skin tingles. A
five to 10 minute treatment like this
each morning for a few days will gen
erally step all excessive loss of hair
within a week and will also make the
hair beautifully fluffy and glossy and
if kept up will almost surely start new
hairs growing Druggists .everywhere

Thin folks Get Fat on
Three Meals a Day
Specialist Explains Why rood Boss
Wot Always Produce rissh and Row
Thin People Can Increase Wslffht.
Most people who are thin and under
normal weight eat heartily but get no
increase in flesh, while plump, chunky
folks of normal weight eat less than
they do and. keep stout all the time.
The underweight ones finally decide
Nature Intended them to be thin, that
the amount or nature of their food has
nothing to do with flesh-making and
that nothing can make them fat. . But
this is not so.
A stout, strong, robust body can
come alone from food nourishment.
Food is the source of all fat. and if
you are thin' and underweight it is
merely a certain Indication that only a
small portion of the flesh-making
nourishment in your meals is reaching
your blood and tissues. The assimila
tive functions of your stomach and
Intestines are not working properly
and the larger- part of the food value
is leaving your body as waste.
To correct such a condition, to gain
flesh, increase weight and get 100 per
cent value from your' food, a single
Bargol tablet taken at each meal will
work wonders. Bargol is a scientific
combination of six splendid assi ml la
tive agents. It properly stops ths
leakage of fats, and while aiding di
gestion, also separates every last par
ticle ox the fata. oils, sugars and
starches of your food from the waste
matter and prepares the former into
rich, ripe, flesh-producing nourish
ment which the blood readily abjsorbs
and distributes throughout the body.
Weight Increase usually begins within
a very f ew days after Sargol is used
with meals. In my opinion two ordi
nary hearty meals eaten with Sargol
is, equal In flesh-making value to six
ordinary hearty meals eaten without
It. Try it, you people who are thin,
run down and underweight, and see If
I'm not right.
You can buy Sargol from The Crown
Drug Co., or practically any druggist
hereabouts, and every package con
tains a positive guarantee of weight
increase or money back. While also
valuable as a treatment for nervous
indigestion, it should not be used by
people who do not wish to Increase
weight.- Adv.
