ADRIFT WITH THE TIMES

A MODEST SINGER.
A bard who never hopes to scale
The peaks of song,
Enrapturing this mortal vale,
AS sweeps along
Tho flood tide of muse sublime,
Mayhap, may please
Tired hearts with simple bits of rhyme
On birds and bees.
And verses to the crimson rose,
A dream of June,
When graceful, fair the lily blows
And lovers spoonl

MY NEIGHBoR.
Who is my neighbor? The man l meet
In the thronging crowds of city street,
Who signs in vain for a helping hand
And the heart of friend who will I'M

Who plods along his weary way,
Defeated, forspent, from day to day,
With never a kindly word to lift
Him above the mire, or friendly rift
In the clouds that gloom. Oh, such as he
Is neighbor in all that 1t means to me!

A DAY IN GARY LAND
IN THE SUPERIOR COURT

The attention of the Lake superior
court was taken up principally with
probate matters this morning. New
ton Hembroff, the commissioner of pro-
bate, sent notices to all of the attor-

oday on penalty of contempt and so
nearly all of the lawyers in the county
were present to make reports regard
ing guardianships and estates.
The court will have complete this
work by this afternoon and the cases
which have been set on the criminal
docket viii be taken up. The first case
which will receive the attention of the
court viii be state VS.. Mike Lipko, who
is charged with stealing brass.
The other cases which will be taken
up in the order they appear are: State
VS.. Henry Green. George Lonx, ct al,

CHUCK LARSON WINS
Parkside Wonder Throws
the Boots Into Ole
Oleson.

Chuck" Larson, the Parkside won
der, who is destined to become equally
as notable as Ole Olson, went six fast
rounds at a down town athletic club
Saturday evening and easily bested his
opponent, Ed Nearing from the north
side.
This is the third time those two
have met and on two occasions has
gotten the decision, the other being a
draw. Nearing did not show his for
mer gameness and his persistent
crouching through the contest was evil
dent that he was on the defense His
seconds were apparently disgusted
with his actions after the first round.
In the third round Larson had his op-
ponent at his mercy and blow after
blow of rapid fire succession only
caused Nearing to cover his head with
his arms and cruching as low as pos
sible in the event of an uppercut. This
attitude he maintained throughout the
milling.
Larson will commence training this
week for his coming bout Nov. "a at
Racine with an opponent well known
to the sporting world
The Larson-Nearing contest was the
grand windup OF a number of wrest-
ling matches and other entertaining
features given annually by the club.
Another is scheduled in January when
Larson and Johnny Conners will meet
in a six-round sparing match. The lat
ter has been defeated by Larson and
the coming contest promises to be more
interesting as Conners has improved
wonderfully.

ARE MICROBES IN YOUR SCALP
Many Explanations of Badness Have
Been Advanced-The Most Cor
rect Is That of Microbes.

The term "mierobe" refers to a para
site plant or fungi also called bacteria.
A microbe is SO small that it can only
be detected by the aid of microscope.
Some microbes are harmless, while 9TH
ers produce various diseases, and de-
rive their titles through the form of
their growth or becaus etfoh taoin
their growth or because of the dis
eases they create. which diseases are
infectious or contagious.
Prof Unna of Hamburg, Germany,
and DR.. Sabourand. the leading derma-
tologist of France. discovered that
microbe caused badness. and their
theory has time and again been amply
verified through research experiments
carried on through the observation Of
eminent scientists. This microbe
lodges in the Sebum. which is the ma
tural hair oil, and if permitted to -four
ish, it destroys the fair follicles, and
in time the pores entirely close and the
scalp gradually takes on a shiny ap-
pearance. When this happens there is
no hope of the hair growth being re-
vived.
Dandruff is contagious disease
which a microbe causes, and later pro-
duces itching scalp, falling hair and
badness. Dandruff is caused by the
microbe diseasing the sebaceous mat
ter, which dries up and scales off.
Sometimes the cuticle surrounding the
hair allows the natural oil of the hair
to force it's way between the fakes
of scarf skin direct to the hair and the
microbe being between the flakes force
them apart and they scale off as dand-
ruff.
We have a remedy which positively
will remove dandruff, exterminate the
microbe, promote good circulation in
the scalp, tighten and revitalize the
hair roots, grow hair and cure bald
ness. We back up this statement on
our own personal guarantee that this
remedy, which is called Rexall "93'
Hair Tonic, will be supplied free of all
cost to the user If it fails to do as we
promise. 1t will also restore gray and
| faded hair to It's original rich, glossy
color. if loss of color has been caused
by disease, yet it is in no sense a dye
Rexall "93" Hair Tonic occomplishes
these results by making every hail
root, follicle and pigment gland strong
and active, and by stimulating a ma
tural flow of coloring pigment into the
hair cells.
Rexall "93'' Hair Tonic is entirely
free from grease or sediment, is ex-
ceedingly pleasant to use, and will mo-
gum the hair or soil the clothing or pill.

American Highwaymen.

Two Gary Italians met with Ameri-

street and Eleventh avenue in Gary
and as a result of their experience
with the highway robbers, they are
now out gold watch and $50 in money.
The holdup occurred on Sunday
morning at o'clock. The victims of
the holdup were Greccano Amoto and
Nicola Orgatti. They reported the
matter to the Gary police. but the Ital-
ians were unable to tell their story
very well in English and the descrip-
tion the police have of the two men
who are supposed to have the job, is

trouble a BIRDS Nest Caused.

A hatpin used by pair Of swallows
as the foundation for their nest, built
between two wires, put the entire po-
lice alarm system of the suburbs of
Ballard out of business. The police
alarm wires from Ballard to headQuar-
ters at the city hall were tested box
by box until the trouble was located.
It was discovered that difficulty lay
between the box at Fremont and the
one next south The electricians could
find nothing more serious than swal-
lows nest. Investigation showed that
the nest, which stretched from one
wire to another, a distance of about
eight inches, was built on hatpin,
which touched both wires and short
circuited the whole system.-Seattls
