AWFUL ITCHING ON SCALP.

Hair Finally Had to Be Cut to Save
Any-Scalp Now in Good Con-
dition-Cured by Cuticura.
81 used the Cuticura Soap and Oint-
ment for a diseased scalp, dandruff,
and constant falling of hair. Finally
had to cut my hair to save any at all.
Just at that time read about the Cuti-
cura Remedies. Once every week I
shampooed my hair with the Cuticura
Soap, and used the Ointment twice
week. In two months time my hair
was long enough to do up in French
twist. That is now five years ago, and
l have a lovely head Of hair. The
length Is six inches below my waist
line, my scalp is in very good condi-
ton, and no more dandruff or itching
Of the scalp. 1 used other remedies
that were recommended to me as good,
but with no results. Mrs. w. f. Griess,

Dogs Are barred.

A woman dressed in the garb of
lady's maid, who entered barber
shop on North Clark street the other
day with a dog in her arms, was ap-
preached by the manager as soon as
she got within the door, and an ami
mated discussion began. The words
could not be heard by the patrons in
the chairs, but when the maid turned
away and went out it was evident
she was angry and surprised. "She
wanted the dogs hair clipped" said
the manager to the man he was shaw
ing. I'D like to oblige her, but ii
won't do. We've done the job twice
already, and the last time we lost
three customers who happened to be
here when it was done. They said
they didn't want any dog BARRIERS in
theirs. Since then we have had to
turn away three dogs. We charged SO
cents each time for the one dog we
did handle, and if 1 get many appli-
cations Pm going to set up an annex"

Have manfully been piled,
ana now the bridge hangs tottering
Above the boiling tide.
Come back, come back, Horatiusw
Loud cried the fathers all.
Back, Lartius; back, Herminius!
Back ere the ruin fallr'
Back darted Spurius Lartius;
Terminus darted back,
And as they passed beneath their feet
They felt the timbers crack,
But when they turned their faces
And on the farther shore
Saw brave Horatius stand alone
They would have crossed once more,
But, with a crash like thunder,
Fell every loosened beam,
And, like a dam, the mighty wreck
Lay right athwart the stream,
And long shout of triumph
Rose from the walls of Rome
AS to the highest turret tops
Was splashed the yellow foam.
Alone stood brave Horatius,
But constant still in mind.
Thrice thirty thousand foes before
And the broad flood behind.
Down with him" cried false Sextus.
With smile on his pale face.
Nov yield thee!" cried Lars Porsena.
"Now yield thee to our gracev'
Round turned he, as not deigning
Those craven ranks to see
Naught spake he to Lars Porsena;
10 Sextus naught spake he.
But he saw on Palatinus
The white porch Of his home,
And he spake to the noble river
That rolls by the towers of Rome,
"Oh, Tiber, Father Tiber,
To whom the Romans pray,
A Romans life, Romans arms.
Take thou in charge this day."
So he spake and, speaking, sheathed
The good sword by his side
And, with his harness on his back.
Plunged headlong in the tide.
No sound of Joy or sorrow
Was heard from either bank,
But friends and foes, in dumb surprise,
With parted lips and straining eyes,
Stood gazing where he sank.
And when above the surges
They saw his crest appear
All Rome sent forth a rapturous cry,
And even the ranks of Tuscany
Gould scarce forbear to cheer.
Course on him." quoth false Sextus;
"Will not the villain drown?
But for this stay ere close of day
We should have sacked the town."
Heaven help him." quoth Lars Porsena,
"And bring him safe to shore,
For such a gallant feat of arms
Was never seen beforer'
And now he feels the bottom;
Now on dry earth he stands;
Now round him throng the fathers
To press his cory hands.
And now, with shouts and clapping
And noise of weeping loud,
He enters through the river gate,
Borne by the joyous crowd.

Horatius at the Bridge.


Gut spake the consul roundly:
The bridge must straight go down.
For since Janiculum is lost,
Naught else can save the town.
Then out spake brave Horatius,
The captain Of the gate:
10 every man upon this earth
Death comes soon or late.
And how can man die better
Than facing fearful odds
For the ashes of his fathers
And the temples Of his gods?
"Hew down the bridge, Sir Consul,
With all the speed We may.
l, with two more to help me,
Will hold the foe in play.
In yon straight path a thousand
May we'll be stopped by three.
Now, who will stand on either hand
And keep the bridge with me?"
Then out spake Spurius Lartius-
A Ramnian proud was he
10, | will stand on thy right hand
And keep the bridge with theey'
And out spake strong Terminus
Of Titan blood was he
L will abide on thy left side
And keep the bridge with thee.'
Horatius, quoth the consul,
AS thou sayest, so let it be-
And straight against that great array
Forth went the dauntless three.
For Romans in Rome's quarrel
Spared neither land nor gold
NOR son nor wife nor limb nor life
In the brave days of old.
The three stood calm and silent
And looked upon the foes,
And great shout of laughter
From all the vanguard rose,
But all Etruria's noblest
Felt their hearts sink to see
On the earth the bloody corpses
In the path the dauntless three.
But meanwhile ak and lever
Have manfully been piled,
And now the bridge hangs tottering
Above the boiling tide.
Come back, come back, Horatius!'
Loud cried the fathers all.

Damage is Reported from All Over

One of the worst electrical storms
that has passed over this section of

CURED yesterday afternoon and re-
ports of damage come in from all over

very severe rain and considerable
wind bat no damage from lightning.
The surrounding towns Jared consid-
erably worse.
At Grasselli a bolt Of lightning
struck the new building put up by the
DeLamar Copper Refining company.
The elevator which was being used
to hoist new material to the top Of
the building was utterly demolished
by the bolt, the wood being driven
in every direction for a distance of
/ 300 feet. VIII Watts, together with
one of the contractors of the firm of
Johnson & Richards who are putting
/ up the building was covering a newly
plastered wall to protect it from the
rain when the flash Of lightning
came The contractor was not badly
hurt but Watts, being closer, was ter
ribly shocked and for q time it was

low workmen worked over his body
for over TWO hours before he finally
regained consciousness. The tele-
phone operator in the Office who was
seated at the switch board was
knocked to the floor by the shock. It
win be some time before either Of the

CITY COUNCIL HOLDS
IS MINUTE SESSION.
Hammond and Whiting Councilmen
Come To An Agreement On Water
Supply Question. No Vote On
Robertsdale Sewer Appropriation.

The city council held a brief and
uneventful session at the City Hall
last evening and the sum total of
the business done was to authorize
the Board of Public Works to lay
the water pipe to that portion of
Whiting, which can not easily be
supplied from the Whiting Water
Works. The Whiting council finally
agreed to the terms which had been
demanded by the Hammond City
council before the pipe would be laid
AS the proposition now stands Whit
ing agrees to allow Hammond half of
the water rent, providing they lay
the main. There are 13 houses in
the territory which will be benefited
by making hydrant water available.
The council heard the first reading
of an ordinance ratifying the pur-
chase by the Board of Public Works
of some cast iron water pipe.
The motion to call up for consid-
Grafton the ordinance appropriating
/ 500 for the repair Of the Roberts
dale sewer was voted down by its
friends, because there were not
enough members present in favor Of
the motion to pass it.
The matter of repairing the bridges
over the river was discussed. 1t was
+ reported that the cost of their repair
would be $50 TO 500. 1t was pointed
out that although the street ca- com
/ panies' cars cause the greatest
amount of the wear and tear on the
/ bridges, there is no provision in their
+ franchise compelling them to pay
their share of the expense of re-
pair
Within IS minutes of the time the
council meeting was called to order
the city dads had earned their money
and were ready to adjourn
