Should Convince Even the Most sker-

If there is the slightest doubt in the minds of any that Dandruf germs do not exist, their belief is compelled by the fact that a rabbit innoculated with the germs became bald in six weeks time. ]; It must be apparent to any person therefore that the only prevention or badness is the destruction of the germ which act is successfully accomplished fin one hundred per cent. of cases by the application of Newbro's Herpicide.
 Dandruff Is caused by the. same germ which causes badness and can be pre- vented with the same remedy-Neworo's Herpicide.

that period should begin or end. and 1t does not appear when the court ad- journed, but under the statute the court could have continued to a time within thirty days next, before Sep tember, and there is at the conclusion of the bill of exceptions an affirmation by the judge that the same was signed within the time allowed by the court. such recital is a primaS facie showing that the bill of exceptions was signed on day within thirty days as fixed by order of the court, and in the ab- sence of evidence contradicting such recital, the bill of exceptions will not be stricken on motion, and will be con- sidered on appeal.
 2. Action upon promissory note; material alteration avoids contract ev- ldence.-An alteration which makes a promissory note speak a language dif- ferent in legal effect from that which it originally spoke, Is material, and when made by one not a stranger to the paper, is sufficient to avoid the contract as tp all parties not consent ing thereto; and in an action upon such note. under issues properly pre- sented, evidence tending to show such material alteration Is admissible.
 8. Action upon a note; failure of considerations; general affirmative charge.-In an action upon a promis- sorry note, where the defendant pleads d failure of consideration and to such special plea, the plaintiff files a special replication, and there was evidence supporting the plea setting up a fail- uIe of consideration, while there was no evidence introduced by the plaintiff to prove the material averments of his replication. the defendant is enti- tied to the general affirmative charge. and 1t is not error for the court to give such charge at defendants re- quest.

 Eighth--The Rivers and Harbors Board in considering the supplemental repors gives as Its opinion that in view of the expenditures already had in snagging and works of regulation d six foot navigation can not be assured In the Alabama River even for nine months in the year without resorting to canalization and 1t agrees with the district officer that the cost of such
 canaiization will be in excess of the probable benefits to commerce. The Board concludes that under the con ditions named the improvement of the Alabama River should be restricted to snagging and such construction and maintenance of fworks of regulation as may be practicable with total expen- allure of $25,ooo annually.
 Ninth--I concur in the opinion here tofore expressed that the further pro- secution of the present project for irn- pr0vement of the Coosa River is not justified to any further extent than either the completion of the dam No. at an estimated cost of s10S.500, or the extreme limit would be the comple- tion of such dam with lock. which is now under way. and the construction of permanent dam at site No. 5.

quantity of miscellaneous freight of all descriptions estimated for tho past fiscal years as 133.0s2 tons valued at $13.317.000."
 It is also stated that as the benefits to be derived from the Improvement of the Alabama River are very great. funds should be provided for the vigor- ous prosecution of the work, whether a new project Is adopted or not, and as the most important work under the project, to secure a channel six feet deep. will be dredging the small dip per dredge belonging to the improve ment should be put to work and if suitable hydraulic drege should be con- Rtructed. If 1t were certain that the estimate of $s500o0 submitted by Cap tain Cavanaugh would provide six foot channel for nine months in the year. would believe the expenditure to be justihable. But considering the uncertainty as to securing such full results, full adoption of the project at this time does not appear to me to be justifiable. It is believed. however, that the appropriations heretofore made for the river have not been suf- ficient to maintain the Improvements made. let alone securing further im- ment; and am of the opin- ion that the commercial in- terests involved will warrant a greater annual expenditure than recom- mended by the Board for Rivers and Harbors. for several years to come, so that not only may existing improve ments be maintained, but that addi- tional channel work may extend the improvement gradually toward the de- sired six-foot low water channel.
 Very respectfully.

Nebraslxa Idea of Freedom.


 As general proposition legal inter- ference with the acts of an individual should only begin at the point where such acts infringe upon the rights and privileges of another. If an officer of the law perceives a man in the act of hanging himself with halter it is his duty to put the offender under arrest take him before the court and cause him to give testimony concerning his unwarranted attempt to destroy hu- man life. If the man is discovered coTtentedly and happily filling his skin tilential material the conservator of law and order may not interfere unless the party becomes disorderly as well as drunk. In other words free American citizen Is entitled to kill himself by slow poison, by eating bad food and too much of 1t, by becoming q slave to various narcotic poisons, but he must not do immediate violence to his system Tn sight and heariny of our legally constituted peace officers.
