For those of mora refined tastes, choco

Yet very many lovers of this delicacy
have found they must eat of it sparingly
or forego it entirely.
"I love chocolates," they say, "but
they do not agree with me."
You will not find this the case with my
new Egyptian Chocolates. They are com
posed largely of a material found in no
other candy. It gives them that mellow,
creamy savoriness you are so quick to
appreciate, that captivating taste you
call rich; but it does not pall the palate
or impair digestion. It is healthful.
In this confection are only the freshest,
most luscious fruits and nuts, only the
sweetest, purest chocolate. They are ex
acted with such discriminating care and
so delicately blended that the taste
clings. You. will like the last bite even
more than the first
Delicious, satisfying, healthful. Egyptian
Chocolates fulfill the highest ideal in

.TODAY'S BEAUTY HINT
It is not necessary to shampoo your
hair, so frequently if it is entirely
and properly cleansed each time by
the use of a really good shampoo.
The easiest to use and quickest dry-'
ing shampoo that we can recommend
to our readers is one, that brings out
all the natural beauty of the hair and
may be enjoyed at very little ex
pense, by dissolving a teaspoonful of
Camthrox, which can b obtained from
any druggist, in a cup of hot water.
This makes a full cup of shampoo
liquid, enough so it is easy to apply
it to all the hair instead of just to the
top of the head. This, when rubbed
into the scalp and onto every strand
of hair, chemically dissolves all im
purities. It is very soothing and cool
ing in its action, as well as beneficial
to both scalp and hair. After rinsing
out the lather so created, you will
find the scalp is fresh, clean and free
from dandruff, while the hair dries
quickly and evenly, developing a
bright luster and a soft lluffinesa
that makes it seem very heavy.
