Keep Cool and Remember and Follow

In case Of IRE, II the burning
articles are at once splashed and
sprayed with a solution Of salt and
nitrate Of ammonia an incombustible
coating il formed. This b prepare
ton which can be made at home at q
trifing cost and should be kept on

mon salt and ten pounds Of nitrate Of
ammonia In seven gallons Of water.
Pour this into quart bottles Of thin
glass and IRE grenades are at hand
ready for uss. These bottles must be
tightly corked and sealed to prevent
evaporation, and In case Of fire they
must be thrown near the flames, so as
to break and llberate the gas con-
tanned. At least two dozen Of these

In this connection 1t Is well to re-
member that water ON burning oil scat

A GREAT DISCOVERY
Certain Ingredients That Really Grow Hair
When Properly Combined.

Resorcin is one of the most effective
germ destroyers ever discovered by SCI
ence, and in connection with Beta Nap
thol, which is both germic;dal and anti.
septic, a combination is formed which
destroys the germs which rob the hair OF
its natural nourishment, and also creates
a clean, healthy condition Of the scalp,
which prevents the development of new
germs.
Pilocarpin, although not colorng
matter or dye, is well known ingredi-
ent for restoring the hair to iitsl natura
color, when the loss OF hair has been
caused by disease of the scalp.
These ingredients in proper combina-
ton, with alcohol added as a stimulant
and for its we'll defined nourishing prop
critics, perfect the most effective remedy
that is known for scalp and hair troubles.
We have a remedy which is chiefly
composed of these ingredients, in CON-
bnation with other extremely invaluable
medicinal agents. We guarantee it to
positively cure dandruff and to grow hair;
even though the scalp in spots is bare of
hair. II there is any vitality left in the
roots, it will positively cure badness.
If the scalp has glazed shiny appear
ance, it's an indication that badness is
permanent, but in every other instance,
badness is durable.
We want everyone troubled with scalp
disease or loss Of hair to try Rexall'"93"
Hair Tonic. II it does not cure dandruf
and grow hair to the satisfaction OF the
user, we will without question or bubble
return every cent paid US for it. We
print this guarantee on every bottle. II
has effected . positive cure in 80 per
cent Of cases where put to a practical
test.
Rexall "93" Hair Tonic is entirely un.
like, and in every particular better, than
anything else we know of for the purpose
for which it is prescribed. We urge you
to try this preparation at our entire risk.
Certainly we know Of no better guaran-
tee to give you. Brunt & Parman, Water
Street, DEBORAH.

yesterday and in its report 20 the Sec
rotary OF War. by whom It was ap-
pointed according to act OF Congress,
II has recommended that this change
be made in the l24th article Of war.
That article specifies the order to be
regular. volunteer, and militia. The
board believes the militia should pre-
eede the VOLUNTEER, thus leaving the call
ing out OF the volunteers the last resort.
This change has been under cOnsidera-
ton several years.
The board also recommended that. be-
ginning July 1 OF this year issues OF
equipment under the act be pro rata
on the basis of the organized enlisted
strength OF the militia as shown by Of
ncial reports.
