Mr.. McHenry is making his last trip
over the road in his official capacity
and before returning to St. Paul he
will go over all the coast lines.
Regarding his resignation, which is
to take effect on September ], he has
nothing to say, neither does he care
to make a prophecy as to who will sue
coed him. Enough has been gathered
however, to indicate that when candi-
dates for the place are considered that
Mr.. Darling's name will be among
them, and that he stands every show
of winning a we'll deserved promotion.
if a change is made.
Not from Mr.. McHenry himself, but
from another and most reliable source,
comes the information that the chief
engineer has been asked to reconsider
his resignation and there is a POSSIBLE
ity that he may do so.

proud of their product. In this con-

Falling hair is caused by dandruff,
which is a germ disease. The germ

wnere it destroys the vitality of the
hair, causing the hair to fall out, digs
up the cuticle in little scales, called
dandruff or scurf. You can't stop the
falling hair without curing the dand-
ruff, and you can't cure the dandruff
without killing the dandruff germ.

spells of dizziness, spots before the eyes,
and a ringing noise in the head. These
symptoms are commonly associated with

DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-

allied organs of digestion and nutrition.
It cures through the stomach diseases
seemingly remote from that organ, but
which have their origin in a diseased
condition of the stomach and digestive
and nutritive system. Hence, cures of

Naming the Baby.

She was a young mother, and it was
her first It was the prettiest, the mos
intelligent-in fact, there never was
such an infant So she thought it should
have name which would distinguish
it from all others. After a great deal OF
thinking she announced her decision.
Papa, she said to the happy father,
'I have thought of a name for the baby.
We will call her Imogen. "
Papa was matter of fact man, who
knew there was nothing in that baby
different from most others, and he didn I
wish to see his child saddled with a
name that wouldn't fit in with other
circumstances.
Fancy her marrying man named
Snooks, he thought. "Imogen Shocks
will sound nice, won't it? But if say
SO she'll begin to cry and will insist
upon it.
After little reflection he thought of
plan.
81 think that's lovely name, my
deari' he cried. cit was my first sweet
hearts. She will take it as a compli-
ment, and it will always remind me.
Yes, that and your dear mothers name,
Mary, are the best know"
II think, papa, she said after a
pause, eve had better call her Mary,
after my mother. :"
And the artful man chuckled to him
