HAND BOOKMAKER
DECLARED GUILTY
Court of Appeals Rules
Against Lewis
Pfeiffer.

The Court Of Appeals Of the District
today handed down an opinion confirm
ing the verdict of a jury in the Police
Court finding Lewis r. Pfeiffer. of
Washington. guilty of betting on horse
races and making a hand book.
The case was tried under section S69
Of the code. which makes hand book
making a crime. II was considerably
different from the Benning race track
case, in which Justice Stafford decided
that perambulatOry bookmaking was
not prohibited by the law when the act
takes place not within one mile OF the
clty's limits.
In Pfeiffer's case the charge was that
he accepted a bet while on Tenth street
northwest. which was. Of course, within
the city limits. He made the bet, il IS
alleged. with John Simmons, a horse
dealer, and the races on which he bet
were held in Canada.

NO RECOURSE BUT THE GUN

This Is from the Cordova Alaskan, a stron; Hopgatt paper, edited by John Frame, formerly of the Juneau Record;
 "Tbe Fairbanks shooting between Wm. Oe.erlng and John Ridenour is s natural consequence Of leaving the district without any protection by the law. One man ownes a valuable claim, Another begins work upon it right. fully, or wrongiuny. There is no recourse to the law for the reason that the only power to whom either of the men can apply Is down la the States visiting. What course is left but to defend his prop erty with . shotgun? Of course this Is not right, but seli-preserva,iou is the first law of nature ard it applies to the average man concerning his home and his property almost as strongly as it does to the protection Of his own life. De,ering could rot apply to the court for an injunction restraining Rideuour from working his ground and neither could Ridenour secure an in- junction to restrain DeIering from working it, for there was no court. All that either oue of them could do was 10 shoot and kill or see another take their gold. What excuse can be given for paying man big salary to perform certain duties as an officer and then permitting him to leave his post Of duty end thus jeapordize the property interests and even the life of every man ln the district. If one officer cau leave his work and contiu- ue to draw his salary why cannot another aud if all should leave, what other course is left the property holder but to use the sho, gun,

When the pippins. golden yellow, In the orchards tempt a fellow And the corn is cut for fodder and the pumpkins ripe and round. Then man with pastors thrilling comes along the fences billing And the town lot. long neglected, soon becomes enchanted ground. In the weedy. dusty clearing, snowy can vas tents appearing Send a wave og expectation like wire less on the air And the boys begin Co muster and tho place Is in a fiuster And a hurry and worry, getting ready for the fair. Granny. cousin. aunt and mother. father. uncle, little brother It's marvel how the wagon manages to hold them all. Cracking whips and jokes together Co the creak of harness leather. While old Bess Is like lilly newly taken from the stall Other loaded turnouts meeting friends and neighbors loudly greeting. Everybody starchcd and lroncd In a way to make you stare, Hoping with thrill of rapture that your folks prize will capture, That's the way you always journey when you're going to the fair. There are cakes and cream and candy and a sweetly smiling dandy Who will sell a diamond scarf pin, such a sparkler, for dime, And the wooden horses flying and tho people who are trying To beat the simple shell game, but are losers every time. Bands are blaring. fakirs calling, para chutes and pennies falling. You are dizzy with the effort to be looking everywhere, And you find that fortunes fckle and she always gets your nickel But 1t is not very often that you so Co see a fair. Homeward in the sunset glory We re- hearse the wondrous story Of how mother scOOped the honors with her jelly and her bread. And with bashful tremors shaken show the tintype We had taken In the shabby tent erected near the noisy poultry shed. In our dreams again we're gazing at the rows and rows amazing Of the pigs and sOws and horses and the things to eat and wear, And we count the snOws and roses tin again the gate unclOseS On the razzle-dazzle racket of the Un- nual county fair.

ARE MICROBES IN YOUR SCALP
Many Explanations Of Badness Have
Been Advanced. The Most
Correct is that of Microbes

The term "microbe" refers to a par.
asitic plant or fungi, also called bac.
terra. A microbe Is 80 small that Il
can only be detected by the aid OF a
microscope Some microbes are harm
less while others produce various dis.
eases and derive their titles through
the form of their growth or because
OF the diseases they create which dis
eases 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 the research expert
ments carried on through the obser-
walton OF eminent scientists. This
microbe lodges in the Sebum, which
Is the natural hair oil, and II per
mitted to flourish, Il destroys the hair
follicles. and in time the pores entire
ly close and the scalp gradually takes
on shiny appearance. When this
happens there Is no hope of the hair
growth being revived
Dandruff is a contagious disease
which amicrobe 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 on.
Sometimes the cuticle surrounding
the hair allows the natural oil of the
hair to force It's way between the
flakes of scarf skin direct to the hair
and the microbe being between the
flakes force them apart and they scale
off as dandruff.
We have n remedy which positively
will remove dandruff, exterminate the
microbe. promote good circulation In
