Parasites Cause All Hair troubles.

plains why ordinary hair preparations, even
Of the most expensive character, fail to cure
dandruff because they do not, and they
cannot, kill the dandrufi germ. The only
hair preparation in the world that
positively destroys the dandruff parasites
that burrow UP the scalp into scales called
scurf or dandruff, is Newbros Herpicide.
In addition to its destroying the dandruff
germ Herpicide is also a delightful hair

almost continuously. His paternal
ancestors were Scotch. those of his
mother from new England. In the
son were blended the best tributes
of two sturdy, upright races.
Graduating from the distric,

education in the Franklin Academy.
He then turned to the study of law
which profession he practiced until
the time of his elevation TO the
bench, with the exception Of two
years that were devoted to newspa

Judge McCollum was we'll known

While he was President Judge of

leading part in the movement that
resulted in his selection.

NEW FORM OF BALLOT.

The new form of ballot adopted
by the last Legislature will be used
at the coming November election.
The old ballot had separate col
umn for each party which had made
nominations. But on the new bal
lot the names of all candidates for
one Office vii! be printed under the
name of that Office. For instance,
under the heading State Treasur-
err" all candidates for that Office
will be printed. The name of the
candidate will be first at the left,
and at the right of his name will be
the name OF the party which nom-
mated him. At the right of this
party name will be a small square.
If two or more parties have nomin-
ated the same man for the same Of.
fee the name of each party which
nominated him will be printed at
the right of his name. At the top
of each ballot there will be printed
in large letters the names of the
different parties which have made
nominations, and a large square will
be at the right of each party name.
II you want to vote straight ticket
you will put a cross in the big
square at the right of your party
name and that will be counted for
the whole ticket. But if you want
to cut your ticket you put a cross
in the small square at the right
of the name of the man for whom
you want to vote. Don't put your
cross in the big square at the top
and in the little square at the right
of each candidate; if you do this
neither one will count. Remember,
the big square is for a straight tick
ct, the little square is Tor a cut
ticket.

DEATH OF UHIBF JUSTICE MoUOLLUM

Chief Justice J. Brewster McCol-
lum, of the Supreme Court of Penn
svlvania, died at his home in Mont
rose about midnight Saturday night
after an illness of about two years.
His last days were painless.
Long before J. Brewster McCol-
lum was elevated to the Supreme
Court bench he was recognized as
one OF the most able jurists in the
State OF Pennsylvania. Ripe in ex-
perience as lawyer of cleauest type
he was exceptionally we'll equipped
for the bench when. in 1873, he was
elected president judge of the Thir.
ty-tourlh district.
His elevation carried with it a
guarantee of ability and honor.
He possessed mental qualities of an
unusual order, strict sense of the
equities and duties of life, and a
broad view of men and conditions.
He proved practical aud earnest
jurist, free of outside entauglements,
political or otherwise. that would
be likely to bias the judicial mind.
When the State Democratic con-
vention met in 1888 Judge McCol-
lum was named as the candidate OF
his party for a seat in the Supreme
Court. This nomination was re.
garded rather in the light of a COM
pliment and a vote of honor, mas.
much as Judge James T. Mitchell,
OF Philadelphia, the Republican
candidate could not have been de-
feated by any Democrat. 1t hap
peued, however, that Justice Trun-
key died 4 short time after the
nominations had been made, and
the minority party was entitled to
ill this second vacancy. Judge
McCollum tound himselI instead OF
figure head on the Democratic
ticket, full tiedged candidate to
whom success was assured.
The question OF seniority on the
Supreme bench then lay between
Messrs. Mitchell and McCollum,
The matter was decided by the cast,
ing OF lots. Justice McColluu
won.
Justice McCollum was born in
Bridgewater, Susquehanna county
September IS, 1889. He was q
life long resident of his native Stat,

Normal Won Opening Game, +,

1t was hard fought battle that
took place on Normal field Satur-
day afternoon between the school
team and the Berwick Rangers.
Normal won, but as the old saving
goes "it was barely by the skin of
their teeth. The contest was one
of the best that has taken place
OH the field in recent years, and
the audience, a good sized one
vented their enthusiasm by loud,
long and lasting cheering.
DR.. Aldinger expressed himself
as well pleased with the team work.
Before the game there appeared to
be marked feeling of uncertainty
in the Normal camp concerning the
outcome of the contest. The known
strength of the Rangers and ,he
tact that Normal's line up contained
several new and unknown quantities
aroused grave fears in more than
one local enthusiast, and served TO
make them feel anything but conf
dent of the outcome.
Such yelling was probably never
before heard on the field. Particu-
larry when Patterson ot Berwick
secured the ball and darted across
the field to Normal's goal before
being tackled. The Berwick con-
tingent showered their approval on
him until the welkin rang with
cheers. But their enthusiasm was
rude'y shocked when umpire TIE ufel
declared that the play was an off.
side one and would not count.
There were many brilliant plays
| in the execution of which Kurtz ol
| the Rangers and Meth and Fisher
two new men on the Normal team
were conspicuous figures. The
latter made the only touch down.

Potato Fiqures.

The estimated yield of potatoes in
the United States this year is 244 .445,-
900 bushels, about three bushels per
capita of our population. The average
yield per acre was 81 bushels, which
is considerably above the average of
the last 20 years. In fact the largest
reported average yield was SO bushele
in 1891; the next largest, 80 bushels,
last year. The lowest average of re-
cord was SO bushels, and there have
been many years when the yield was
between that number and 75 bushels
The largest total yield was last ar
271, 1,777,000 bushels, or nearly 2700O,.
600 bushels more than this year. It
is not easy to see how potatoes can
be very cheap this year, and II looks
as If healthy potatoes, we'll stored,
would pay a fair interest if kept for
later markets. But the factor of rot
must be considered in the proposition,
and that may easily make early mar
keting desirable.
