the construction of laboratory in
Washington for the use of the Forest
Service in conducting experiments for

This, measure is of more than ordi-
nary interest to West Virginia people.
There are countless millions of feet of
lumber yet on the stump in West Vir-
ginia- and any improvements in the
methods Of handling it which will re-
suit In even a small saving per tree
would amount to very large sum in
the aggregate. This is but one of
the many measures that Senator FL

The High PricspOf Grain In EngfanA
Scaled It's Doom.
During the last years Of the eight
eenth century the price of grain In Eng
land was very high. So much flour
was used as hair powder that an at
tempt was made to check Its use. A
book, "At the Sign Of the Barber's
Pole" contains copy of document
issued by the "mayor. justices and
principal Inhabitants" of Great Var
mouth, recommending the disuse Of
hair powder for time.
1--WE flatter ourselves" they said in
this proclamation, which was Issued In
January, 1795, 1.-The military will not
hesitate to adopt it, being fully convinc-
ed that appearances are at all times to
be sacrificed to the public veal and
that in doing this they really do good.
Jan. 81, 1705."
In the following April party Of gen.
tlemen at Woburn abbey entered Into
an engagement to forfeit certain
sum of money IL any of them wore
their hair tied or powdered within a
certain period.
Nevertheless the Tories regarded with
distrust persons who did not use hair
powder. So late as 1920 certain
Major Cox of Derby, an excellent Tory,
declined to allow his son to become a
pupil OF we'll known clerical tutor,
for the reason that the clergyman did
not powder and that he wore his hair
short, which suggested that he must be
. dangerous gevolutionlst.

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years
was supposed tc be incurable. Fora great
many years doctors pronounced it local
disease and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be con-
stitutional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. j. Cheney x
Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constltu-
tional cure on the market 1t is taken
internally in doses from 10 drops to a
teaspoonful. 1t acts directly on the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case it
fails to cure. Send for circulars and testi-
