view. Princeton has no game sched-
uled for Saturday and if rumors are
correct it is possible that the orange
and blacks will lay aside their MOLE
skins for the rest of the season. The
accompanying cut shows the Yale line
in their new starting position since the
shakeup of the line, also some of the
stars in the game between Princeton
and Yale last Saturday.

A BALD-HEADED WOMAN
shorn of Her Crown Of Beauty. Loses in
Love and Marriage

Hair is certainly most necessary to
woman Who could love and marry a
bald-headed woman? What charms
could one array TO offset such disfig-
urement?
A woman's goal is usually love and
marriage. Her GROWING glory is her
hair. The loss of her hair mars her
beauty, happiness and success. Yet.
right here IN Viroqua, there are hun
dreds of women who are neglecting
or inJuring their hair to such an extent
that It IS only manner of time when
it will be utterly ruined.
Many women destroy the beauty of
their hair through thoughtiessness or
Ignorance of certain facts. They use
curling irons over-heated, or to excess,
which destroys the natura, oil of the
hair, causing it to split, break and
come out. They do not shampoo their
hair often enough, or too often. They
use soaps or preparations which con-
tain ingredients positively harmful to
the scalp and hair.
As result of such treatment. dand-
ruff is created, the hair loosens. loses
color, falls out, and badness com
mences, unless proper and prompt pre-
cautions are taken in time. Then again.
microbes and certain diseases bring
about unhealthy scalp and hair con-
ditions.
Almost anyone may rid themselves
of dandruff and diseased scalp and hair
if they will but use the right remedy.
We have that remedy, ard we viii pos
itiyely guarantee that it will either
cure dandruf and badness or it will
not cost the user anything.
That's pretty broad statement, bat
we win back it and prove it with our
own money. Rexall 1893" Hair Tonic
is the remedy that will grow hair and
overcome all scalp and hair troubles,
1t will grow hair even on bald heads,
unless all life in the hair roots has been
extinguished, me follicles closed, and
the scalp is glazed and shiny. 1t gets
its name from the fact that in SO out
of 100 cases, where it received a
thoroughly hard, impartial and practi-
cal. test, it grew hair.
We want you to try Rexall 93'' Hair
Tonic at our risk. You surely cannot
lose anything by doing so, while you
have everything to gain You had bet
ter think this over, and then come in
and see us about this offer. You viii

One afternoon last week the teachers
IN the high school building entertained
Mss Dawson, ]. j. Dawson, C. NJ.
Butt, Jr., Mrs. A. E. Smith, Mrs. w.
z. Colburn, and the teachers from the
other buildings at an informal luncheon
in the domestic science room. The raw
materials for the menu were furnished,
Sut the entire luncheon was prepared
and served by members of the Sophie
more cooking class.
Mrs. Elizabeth King Mauer gave an
interesting illustrated lecture on science
M Germany, in the high school RON,
Wednesday evening last.
Halloween PARTIES were held in sew
eral OF the grades Friday afternoon.
Many OF the teachers joined other
young people of the city in a pleasant
little party at Dyson's hall, Friday
evening. On the next evening the
young lady teachers were entertained
by Miss Ethel Nuzum in the beautiful
Nuzum home on South Main street.
The examinations for the first quar-
ter will be he'd next week, instead of
this. There will then be no loss of
time while the teachers attend the
Teachers association in Milwaukee,
November IL to IA.
The change of time on the South
eastern makes it necessary for the
Westby pupils in the high school to
wait for the later Milwaukee train.
The work in Current Events contin-
ues to be pleasant and profitable ex-
ercise. Seventy-fve copies of Current
Events are received every Thursday,
thirty-seven going to individual sub
scribers.
Plans are under way for description
of trip through the White mountains
to oe given in the high school on the
evening OF November %. The lecture
is to be illustrated by some exception
ally fine stereopticon views made from
photographs. The proceeds of the lee
ture are to be invested in pictures for
various rooms of the schools.
Plans are under way for an election
in the high school, Tuesday, with real
ballots and full complement of cleo
ton officials, ballot box, booths and all.
A series of campaign speeches win be
given first by supporters of the various
parties, after which the polls viii be
opened and voting will continue through
out the forenoon. The officials will
count the ballots in the afternoon, and
it is hoped complete returns may be
made before school closes.

YOUR OTHER SELF

Every man, If he would live to the
broadcast fullest purpose, in what ever
vocation he may choose. must be his
own severest critic. Self love. conceit,
refusal to sharply criticize ones own
work is never self respect. Selfrespect
can ncver praise except in response to
work well done. Every man, be he
farmer, mechanic, editor or what not,
who does his work well, must have a
good deal of the artistic sense in him.
There is large degree of truthful
philosophy in the following from Ebert
Hubbard's Little Journey" on Robert
Burns:
Work TO please yourself and you de-
volop and strengthen the artistic con-
science. Cling to that and it shall be
your mentor in times of doubt; you need
no other. There are writer's who would
scorn to write a muddy line, and would
hate themselves for year and day
should they dilute their thoughts with
the platitude of the fear-ridden peo-
pies. Be yourself and speak your mind
today, though it contradict all you said
before and above all IN art, work to
please yourself That Other Self that
stands over and behind you looking over
your shoulders, watching your every
act, word and deed Knowing your
every thought. Michael Angelo would
not paint picture on order, 81 have
critic more exacting than you" said
Messonier ut is my Other Self. "
Is it easy to please your Other Self?
Try it for a day. Begin tomorrow
morning and say, "This day | will live
as becomes a man. / will be filed with
good cheer and courage, will do what
is right; will work for the highest; |
will put soul into every hand-grasp,
every smile, every eKpression-int all
my work. viii live to satisfy my
Other Self. :"
Do you think it is easy, try it for
day. In the above, art is finally shown
to I've something more than the act of
painting a picture. 1t must show in
the art of living, the art of human con-
tact, the art of well doing. Perhaps
the great reason why we fail in all
these things as much as we do is be-
cause of the weakness of our artistic
conscience our Other Self -Goyernor

Postmaster General Won Myer wants
all of the children in the United States
instructed in the common school how to
direct letter. Thirteen million and
one letters went to the dead letter Office
last year because people did not know
this very simple thing. Every business
man is in constant receipt of letters
containing money which show that the
writer's hive not yet learned how to
direct their letter properly or that they
failed to give their post office or their
state or failed to sign their name. By
all means let US have a little of this
practical education in the common
school. 1t would cost any man but a
triAe to have his name and address
printed or stamped on his envelopes and
letter sheets.

NEW YORK EIGHT
HOUR DAY LAW
IS UPHELD
Test Case on Statute Relating
To Operators
ERIE RAILROAD DEFENDANT
Law Passed in 1907 Restricting EN-
ployment Of TeIegraphers to Eight
Hours Daily

Albany, Dec. 1.-THE validity Of
the law passed by the legislature Of
1907 prohibiting railroad companies
from employing railroad telegraphers
more than eight hours a day IS upheld
in a decision rendered by the supreme
court justice, Martin Keough at New
Rochelle, according to information re-
ceived at the attomey-general's office.
The constitutionality Of the act was
questioned in an action brought by
Attorney General Jackson against the
Erie Railroad company to recover the
penalty of 500 provided in the statute
for each violation. A test case was
submitted to the court involving a
violation by the Erie in the employ
ment Of David Henion as towerman by
the company at Sterlington, Rockland
county, on November /, 1907 for a
period of twelve hours time.
IL was contended By counsel for the
railroad company that the law was not
only in contrayention of the constl
tuition Of this state but that it was in
conflict with the federal statute pass
ed by Congress in 1907 and created to
take effect March l. 1908 which pro
yided for limitation Of nine hours for
a days work for such telegraphers EN-
ployed by railroads engaged in inter
state commerce.
IL is believed that the case viii ul
timately be carried to the United
States Supreme court It is under
stood that all the railroads are OBJ
serving the eight hour law pending
the outcome Of the litigation.

PAWLETS FAIL TO
OBTAIN A
DIVORCE
Bill to Divide Town Killed in
the House
NO TEMPERANCE TEACHING
Bill to Provide for Compulsory In
struction in Public Schools
Falls to Pass

Montpelier Dec 1.-THE debate on
the bill to provide temperance legisla-
ton in the public schools was contin,
ued in the house today where the
measure was finally killed by a vote
of 1872 to 80.
The senate this morning passed the
bill providing for the change in the
date of holding the annual meeting of
Bennington Center to the first Tues
day in October.
The enlarged tax committee is hard
at work but has not as yet submitted
any report
The House was in a generous mood
yesterday attention and without dis
senting voice amended the bill relat-
ing to the governors salary making 1t
on motion Of Mr.. Martin of Brookline
$4,000 annually instead of $500 also
allowing the governor his necessary
expenses when away from home and
$1,000 annually for the expenses Of his
staff
The bill allowing the railroads OF
the state to exchange mileage books
for newspaper advertising was read
the third time but before it was pass
ed 1t was amended on motion Of Mr..
Martin of Essex so that It was emas-
culated the provisions regarding news
paper advertising in exchange for mile
age books being stricken out and only
allowing railroads to carry fire COM
panies and their equipment free.
The bill which provides for dividing
the town Of Pawlet into two towns to
be called Pawlet and West Pawlet
came up late in the afternoon. The
division OF the town was opposed by
Mr.. Williams OF Leicester. chairman
OF the committee on town lines. Mr..
Davis Of Springfield, Mr.. Martin OF
Essex, Mr. Otis Of Sutton and others.
Mr.. Roberts of Pawlet who introduced
the bill, made another valiant fight
for its passage. BY a vote of 143 to
SO the House refused to pass the bill.
The question Of final adjournment
was pre-eminent in discussions about
the state house today and It was
strongly limited in semi-offlcial circles
that If the legislature OF 1908 should
adjourn without taking favorable ac-
ton on taxation, the governor will at
once convene the House and the Sen
ate in special session, for the sole
purpose Of deciding these important
! issues.
Final adjournment by Christmas is
now out Of the question and Judging
by the progress made the session is
likely to take considerable time after
New Years in order to dispatch the
measures still remaining.
