To Rivaled by Human Halr Where
 DandrulI Is Eradicated.


 sealskin is admired the world over for its sOftness and glosslness; and yet the human hair is equally as soft and glossy when healthy; and the radical cause of all hair trouble is dandruff, which is caused by pestlterous parasite that saps the vitality of the hair at its root. Newbro's Herpicide is the only preparation that Is fatal to the dandruf germ. Without dan. druR there Is no falling hair, but a lux uriant growth of glossy, soft hair is cer- tain. Securing the scalp won't cure dan drum. Kill the dandruf germ. Thous- ands of women owe their beautiful suits of hair to Newbro's Herpicide. Sold by leading druggists.

In church where the prayers are
made at the discretion Of the minister
very strange intercessions are some
times presented. remember well
ages since hearing old DR.. Muir of
Glasgow, who was real though &C.
centric genius in his day and of whom
no English reader ever heard, relate an
incident which had been in his own
knowledge. "Mr. Smith was preach
ing at Drumsleekie, and he had come
to the concluding prayer, where we
pray for all and sundries (sic), when
he suddenly remembered that he had
forgotten to pray for the magistrates.
So he put in the prayer just where he
was, Have mercy upon all fools and
idiots and specially upon the magis-
trates Of Drumsleekie.' He meant no
evil. but the magistrates were not
pleased" Magazine.

Then fold the handkerchief over SC

who have tried everything else say
that this home remedy relieves then.

Playtb1ngs In Court.

Some very curious models have from
time to time been produced in court in
various lawsuits. There was model
OF mill produced lately in a patent
case where the patentee claimed his
patent to have been infringed. The
patent was in connection with some
part Of the machinery of the mill. The
model Iill was set working in court
while Judge and counsel watched its
movements with much interest. A
model steam engine was once produced
In an action against railway compa-
ny. The Judge insisted on having the
whole working of the engine explained
to him, whereupon the counsel who
was speaking asked for an adjourn
ment of the trial for twelve months,
when he would be able to give the re-

These Progressiws Days.
HALF q century ago q man OF forty.

woman Of the same age was expec..ed
to have long since cut herself adrift
from all ties binding her. to her youth
and to assume the appearance aud de-.

All this has changed In particularly

day Is as knowing as was the six-year.
old Of half century ago and the ten,
year-old boy of today Is in many re.
spects quite as much a man as was his
grandfather at eighteen, one might nat.
urally expect that in due graduation the
modern middle aged man should be OLD
beyond his years. But such is not the
case.
Middle age. so far from hurrying on
into senilty. so far even from standing
still. would seem actually to have
stepped backward and marched along
side of youth. There is jauntiness, a
buoyancy, an elasticity. about the mid.
die age of today at which our fathers
would have shaken their heads as un
seemly. The gulf which once separated
the middle aged parent from his chill.
dren has been filled up. The curtain
which shrouded the middle aged man
generally from the eyes of youth and
which caused him to be regarded with
respect if not with awe has been lifted,

which have made the schoolmaster the

In connection with youth.
As with men so it Is with women.
Social stattsucians tell us that the age
at which women are considered most
eligible for marriage has been very
notably advanced of late years, and
we know that the lament of many a
matchmaking mamma is that the most |
dreaded rivals Of her darling are not |
to be found so much among the girls |
OF her own age as among women who /
not many years ago would have been |
relegated to the ranks of hopeless old |
maidenhood. The fact that the middle |
aged lady Of today is much younger in
manner and tastes is of course not the |
only reason for this. but it is among
the most potent.-London Spectator.

How to Remove Stones From Land.
Large rocks should be heated by
burning quantity Of brush on each
one, and then with good heavy sledge
and steel wedges most of them can be
split into fragments that can be hauled
on upon the drag. Medium sized rocks
may be drawn out by digging round
them, fastening log chain upon the
lower side and attaching the team. Let
the horses start slowly, and with a lit
tie effort the stone may be pulled out
at the second or third pull. A good
way to get rid of stones is to bury
them, but bury them deep-not less
than three feet from the surface-as
they will be certain to work up to the
top In a few years. when the work has
to be done over again at considerable
cost.

A DRAMATIC LAWYER.
Effective Climax That Resulted
Setting Murderer Free

Effective Climax That Resulted In
Setting a Murderer Free.
Lachaud, the great French advocate,
was renowned for deliberate but telling
dramatic improvisations, as it were,
upon the original theme.
At one time. for instance, he was de-
Tending murderer on Dec. "a. All
day long he harassed witnesses, re,
calling them, causing delay after de-
lay before getting his final address to
the jury. 1t was we'll on in the even
ing before he commenced. Then sud
denly, at the height Of his passionate
appeals for the prisoner, the slow. SOL
emn bells Of the cathedral next door
pealed for the midnight mass-the first
mass of Christmas morning. Lachaud
stopped as IL overwhelmed by sud-
den warning.
do you hearY he said solemnly
after moments silence, and his man
ner conveyed that all his own glib
eloquence had been shattered by the
divine interruption Of Christ himself.
The Redeemer comes to amend our
pitiable endeavors. Which of US would
dare now. on this great day of mercy
and forgiveness, to condemn another
human being and, above all, to. con
denim one whose culpability is more
than doubtful
The prisoner was acquitted without
the least difficulty, though his death
sentence ten minutes before had been
regarded as certain. The actual sound
of the pealing bells had been too much
for nerves already strained to snap
ping point by the fatigue of long
days sitting.
But nobody guessed, except the few
who knew Lachaud intimately. that
he had been maneuvering from the
time the court opened in the morning
to get that one stirring effect. The
prisoner was dead man without 1t
and saved as certainly If it could be
brought of successfully. City
