. There is no doubt but that Ketchikan and Wrangell will have cable con- nectious this year. The conterees sp- pointed to consider the military ap- propristions bill retained the provi, sion appropriating SII9,OOO for that purpose.

HAIR TELLS CHARACTER.
Color of Hair Said to Indicate a Per

Many people believe that blonde, or light hair denotes affection and dark hair constancy. A person without hair Is not devoid of character; far from it. The disposition of the average bald headed man is to show such solicitude for the welfare of others, that he neg lects himself A germ causes badness. Prof. Sabouraud. of Paris, France, in- nocculated a rabbit with Dandruff germs, causing it to become totally bald In five weeks time. To rid the scalp of these dangerous germs jt Is necessary to apply Newbro's Herpicide.

forts evidently are being made by spectators
in the grain and stock markets to magnify the
rumors of adverse weather conditions IN the
wheat and corn belts Undoubtedly condi
tions not satisfactory desired by the
farmers, but current dispatches from trust
worthy sources in the West do not bear out
the adverse speculative gossip which is heard
in stock and grain circles regarding the posi-

has been ruined in June, but If conditions con-

which are heard in some quarters that quota

much lower level. though the absence OF
public support powerful spectators, if they
so desire. may be able to bring about cheaper
