SNIP SUBSIDY GRAFT.

Many Republicans will be sorry to
hear that the ship subsidy bill is to be
taken out Of the regular order of bust
ness and put through Congress with a
rush before anything else is attended
TO. Rightly or wrongly, this bill,
which as law viii begin by taking &c.
100000 Il year from the taxpayers for
the benefit of n few men, Is regarded
with suspicion and dlstrust; and it
should be carefully examined and thor
oughly debated before enactment
Some Republican leaders, happy over
the party's overwhelming success at
the election, may think the country has
given them carte blanche to do as they
please. Cooler heads know better. AZ

ana vetoed the corrupt town apprOpria.

ported the vicious order that the Presi.

composers of band music, and on the

If your hair is brittle and thinning, you
have dandruff. The merely securing
of the scalp of the loose scales won't
cure dandruff: because dandruff is moth
ing but scales of the scalp being thrown
up by pestiferous little germ in burrow
ing its way to the root of the hair where
it saps the vitality and in time causing
badness. Now you can't stop dandruff,
nor falling hair, nor prevent badness
unless you destroy that germ: and the
only preparation that can do it is the
new scientific discovery, Newbro's Hepi
eide. In fact no other hair preparation
claims to kill the dandruf genial of
them will clean the scalp; soap and
water will do that, but only Newbro's
Hepiclde gets at the roo: Of the trouble
