A FACT PROVEN
Should Convince Even the Mos
 Skeptical of Its Truth.

If there Is the slightest doubt in the minds of any that Dandruf germs do not exist their belief is compelled by tn fact that rabbit innoculated with the germs became bald in six weeks time.
 It must be apparent to any person. therefore, that the only prevention Of baldnesy Is the destruction of the germ which 4 is successfully accomplished in one hundred per cent of cases by the ap- plication of Newbro's Herpic!de.
 Dandruff Is caused by the same germ which causes badness and can be pre- vented with the same remedy, Newbro's Herpicide.

HOW WAR BEGAN
Dramatic Story Of Japan's Inaugural .
ton Of HostiIities

This story is told about the begin
ming of the present war:
On February 4 the emperor met his
advisers and the ministers of finance,
war and navy in solemn council. The
emperor sat on an elevated platform
and before him stood his advisers and
ministers. The decisive moment had
come. 1t was evidenced that Russia
was merely playing with Japan, with
no sincere intention of making the con-
cessions asked. The last Japanese
note of January had not been an
swered, and in the opinion of Japanese
statesmen the delay in giving the an
swer was merely to gain time. Mar
Quis Ito was the spokesman. For
long time, after Japanese fashion, they
remained silent Then at the request
of the emperor Marquis Ito spoke.
I'VE have done everything that we
can for peace. II we are to gain our
ends it must be by war"
Are you sure everything has been
done?" asked the emperor.
Yes" cried all the statemen to-
gether
us there no hope of a peaceful set
tlement?" the emperor asked again.
None whatever" said Marquis Ito
The emperor remained lost in medi-
tation: then he spoke a third time.
Think we'll before you answer. Is
war the only way? Has every method
for bringing peaceful settlement been
tried?"
"Yes" came the answer. Every
method has been tried without effect.
War is the only recourse left"
go, then" said the emperor. land
do your best"
Half an hour afterward the minister
of the navy telegraphed to Admiral
Togo at Sasabo; Attack the Russian
fleet" 81 rMT s m
On the next day the emperor issued
his edict to the army and navy. calling
on them to do their best IL war should
break out.

That "Expureated" Hemans
Saturday Evening Post.)

N'S CHING OSt.y
One Of Eugene Fields favorite Jokes
out Of long repertoire was to enter
bookstore where he was not known, call
for the proprietor and then. in a sol.
emn. almost sepulchral manner. ask for
copy of an expurgated edition of Mrs.
Hemans' poems. On the booksellers
reply that he had never heard of such
thing, Field would look at him with an
expression of mingled sadness. surprise
and mild indignation, and then solemn
ly stalk out.
One day, a few years after going to
Chicago, he visited Milwaukee and
rchanced to fall in width his newspaper
friend George Yenowine. They were
walking along the street. when Yen
owine suddenly halted in front Of a
book shop and said:
Eugene, the proprietor Of this place
is the most serious man ever knew
He never saw a joke in his life
Wouldn't it be good chance to try
again for that expurgated Mrs. He
manS?"
Without a word Field entered his
friend staying outside, asked for the
proprietor. who certainly appeared to
be all that .Yenowine had pictured him
and then made the usual request.
THAT is a rather scarce book" came
the reply. Are you prepared to pay
fair price for it,"
For. just a second Field was taken
aback; then he said: Certainly. Ger
tainly. IEI-know it's rare"
The man stepped to a case. took out
| cheaply bound volume and handed it to
Field. saying: 1.-THE price is S."
Field took it nervously opened to the
title page and read In correct print:

WORDS IN ENGLISH TONGUE
Ordinary Vocabulary Has From 10000
to $4,000 Words, but Few Use All

The ordinary English vocabulary
may be said to contain from 10000 to
$4,000 words, the latter estimate being
large. Shakespeare. whose vocabulary
Is larger than that of any other Eng
lish poet. unless it be Browning, used
about $4,000 words. while Milton. whose
range was narrower, employed only
about half that number says the
Springfield Republican. The common
estimate of the average. vocabulary Of
educated people is from 5000 to 5000
but in this case the number of words
which are known but not used Is enor-
mously increased. A well-read college
graduate should be familiar with per-
haps 10000 words. while in the course
OF a year he might not use 5000 Of
them in his writing or conversat ton.
Shorthand reporters find about $500
workshops and contractions ample for
representing the words which are COM
monty used in public speaking.
