SECURING YOUR SCALP.

SCALES, BUT IT WON'T CURE DANDRUFF.

If your hair is brittle and thinning you have dan
druf. The mere securing of the scalp of the loose
scales won't cure dandruff, because dandruff is
nothing but scales of scalp being thrown up by a
pestiferous little germ in burrowtng its way to the
root of the hair, where It saps the vitality,
Ing falling hair and in time badness. Now you
can't stop dandruf falling hair, nor prevent
badness unless you destroy that germ. and the
only preparation that can do it is the new scien-

other hair preparation claims kill the dandruff

"Guardian of Merchant Marine

Admiral Bartlett in the absence of Sem
ator Gallnger, responded to Our Navy:
The guardian of our merchant marine, the
greatest power for peace and, In her
prowess, the pride of our countrymen" He
briefly reviewed the work of the navy from
the war of the revolution, and said there
was a time during the war of 1912 when the
navy had 100000 men afioat-more than
was in the army-and that it was at that
time that England in her extremity said
she could not send out vessel unless some
Yankee privateer captured her. He eulo-
gized the prowess of the navy and con-
trasted the guns of a century ago. which
fired a ball 700 yards. with the 12-ineh rifles
of today, which will carry a ton shell a
mile for every hundred yards of the other
gun and drive it through fifteen inches of
harveyized steel.
Since 1851 he said, there had been
wonderful development in the guns of the
navy. In those days there We're no sights
used and to hit mark was more a matter
of luck than aim. During the running
fight off Santiago it had been the little
converted yacht Gloucester that had done
such splendid work, and nearly every shot
she fired went to The mark. He said that

There is being made a very thorough

A Trip Around the World

There was ample evidence last night
that people were anxious to take the
World trip. which had been advertis-
ed by the ladies of st. Matthew
Guild. The ladies at the outset be-
lieved that if they sold a hundred
tickets they would be doing extraor-
dinarily we'll. but they sold double
this number of tickets for passage
and then some.
AT six O'Clock the time advertised
for the first train to start from the
Rectory of st. Matthews church. there
was present a crowd sufficiently large
to more than test the capacity of the
coaches provided, which were four in
number. Tickets were good for a
round trip and for meals en-route.
The first station was at the commod-
ions home of Mrs. Daniel Kirby
Here everybody was invited TO sit
down to supper. which alone was
worth more than the price charged
for the entire trip. The menu was
fine and consisted of Boston baked
coffee and relishes. Here number
of the ladies of the guild were pre-
sent to see to the comfort of the pas
sengers and to supply them with
good sunper. The first stop was em-
inently satisfactory and more than had
been anticipated in the way of re-
freshments
From here the train ran on regular
schedule time to the home of Mrs.
Gustave VanHoorebeke. Here was
to be represented picture of China
japanese life Here the ladies wore
Jap comonos. there We're Jap and Chi
nese decorations and tea and crackers
delicately and delightfully."- served.
The door-keeper represented a Chinese
Mandarin.
From the VanHoorebeke home the
varions sections of the first train went
to the Wentworth home This is sit
uated ON Grand avenue between 2nd
and Bird. The picture seen here was
truly typical of the country it was to
] epresent. Alaska. Every thing was
most trlgld. Cotton representing snow
and other means were used to make
things take on cold atmosphere
Here attendants served ice cream and
cake.
From the Wentworth home the final
run was made to the Todd residence
on Grand avenue. Here punch alone
was served and the passengers on the
Worlds trip were entertained by for
tune telling singing from a delightful
chorus through other means provided. |
1t was neatly midnight when the |
last section of the train service car
ried its merry load homeward bound. |
Those who took the trip included |
the young and old and the staid and |
fun loving. There was large repre-
of the merchants and profess
sional men of the city and they SEEM
ed to enjoy the affair as much as did |
Younger people.
Altogether the entertainment was
we'll conceived and we'll executed and |
enjoyable.

is making every effort to get the men
in shape to make creditable showing
against the heavy Nebraska team that
all but defeated Minnesota last Satur-

to the outcome of the game, which will
largely determine whether Iowa can
defeat Minnesota in the Thanksgiving
day game.
The Hawkeyes came out Of the Ames
contest in great deal worse shape than
any previous game this year, Griffith
was injured in the last minute of play,
and 1t is believed that one Of his ribs
is fractured Chalmers, right half, is
suffering from wrenched leg that he
received some time during the last
half, and Moore, who played the entire
game thru, with his sprained ankle In
a steel brace, is not in the best of
shape.
The heaviest loss to the team is in
Captain Jones, who is suffering with
broken rib that will hardly let him
play for a couple Of weeks yet, if again
this season. But the work is pro-
crossing as rapidly ON the Iowa field,
and the men are working as hard, as
they have been in the past week. The
squad will leave for Lincoln, Neb.,
where they will meet the Cornhuskers

man, the creamery man Of Clare, has
dropped out Of sight and has not been
seen since since last Tuesday. His
family claims to be entirely ignorant
Of his whereabouts, and it is alleged
he leaves an Indebtedness behind him
to the amount of more than $4,000.
The town of Clare is much worked up
over the disappearance of the man and
1t is believed by many that he has alb
seconded.
Those who suffer most are the bank
ers of the place, and the parties OF
whom Brakeman purchased the cream
cry. 1t is alleged that his Indebted
ness at the bank amounts to in the
neighborhood Of $1,000, besides the
pay for two months butter checks
which had been cashed by the bank
for the patrons Of the creamery.
Brakeman came from Woodbine nine
years ago and located In Clare. He
made q reputation while there which
gained him the credit of the entire
community, and was always regarded
as man Of the most honest tntentlons
by the citizens of the place.
Five years ago he purchased the
creamery there from D. S. Coughlon
and G. c. Weights, who were at that
contract called for the payment OF
5000 yearly with the interest until the
whole amount had been paid. In the
five years Brakeman has had posses
sion Of the creamery he has made bu'
one payment, but has kept up the In
terest all Of the time until this year
so the men from whom he made the
purchase never crowded him.
On last Tuesday, SO his family

cording to the statement of his wife
and it was with regard to this that ne
wished to consult physician. He wa.
