It is the duty of everyone who Is interested in hair
preservation to learn enough about the subject TO tell
whether ansadvertisement for hair remedy is reason
able or unreasonable In this connection the United
States Post Office department has begun much needed
campaign against false and misleading statements
In advertisements in general While this work is highly
commendable, and should be greatly extended, still
at the same time tends to paternesm rather than to
personal sefreance II YOU know that the claims for
hair remedy unreasonable and untrue, that know
ledge will save money and prevent disappointment
The trouble lies in the fact that certain over am
bilious PrOprieors employ advertising writer's who do
not know the composition the remedies they write
about and even If they did, they expected to
know the therapeutic action of the various ingredients
TWO very familiar and oft repeated statements
the hair must be watered and fed Just like plant
that the color OF the hair destroyed be
stored by natural process While both of these
ments are false in every particular, It requires some
little knowledge of the hair olicle understand why
the statements false

that holds the hair root At the bottom of the hair

is nipple shaped projection that in the scalp

Plain Facts About the Hair

ing the starved and impoverished hair roots with
external application IS all myth.
The short portion of the hair follice above It's neck
opens somewhat like funnel and Is filled with the
outer scalp skin Opening into this outer portion are the
highly important oil or sebaceous glands which from
their location, are most exposed to disease. When
these oil glands become infected with certain microbc
growth the cause Of dandruff there Is hair disease
and finally hair death. Fortunately this outer portion
of the hair focle be treated by carefully rubbing
into the scalp suitable remedy What remedy should
be used? Manifestly that will destroy the growth

NewbrOs Herpicide is the first remedy that pre-
pared for the particular purpose of destroying this in
visible vegetable growth. In fact, 1t is called the
"ORIGINAL remedy that kills the dandruff germ"
Newbros Herpcide not made until after Prof I'm

RARE COLoRs IN MOLEs.
Particular Varieties Confined to Ger
tain Fields-Piebald and White.
(London Globe.)


Mole-catching first became a regu-
lar occupation about century ago,
when English mole-catchers were in
troduced on the lands Of the ther:
Duke Of Buccleuch. J
The handsonest varieties beIon;;
to the "silveI gray" class. If these
could be obtained in any quantity
their skins would bring a high price
in the fur market.
Mr.. Service, OF Dumfries, lately
lectured before the Edinburgh Field
Naturalists' Association, stated that
he had never seen q really white
mole, and he believed it to be a
great rarity. Nor had he ever seeu
a piebald variety. He had little
doubt that variation of color in moles
ran in certain families.
The regularity with which q part
cular variety occurred repeatedly in
the same field or ON the same farm
was we'll known to every mole
catcher, while no abnormal colora-
ton would, perhaps, occur in any
other part Of the parish.

THE EXPERIENCE OF A POUL-
TRY DEALER.

Only in recent years has poultry
keeping taken place among recog-
nized Industries. Many Of the sue
cessful poultry men Of to-day werc
not experts when they began, but
had to learn by experience
"In regard to Sloan's Liniment for
poultry diseases" writes e. R. Spaul-
ding, Of Jaffrey, N. H., "a disease
called roup is one of the greatest
drawbacks in raising poultry. 1t Is
somewhat similar to distemper in a
horse. After trying and experiment.
ing with about everything recon-
mended, l found that Sloan's Lini-
ment was the speediest and surest
remedy for roup, and can especially
recommend it for eanker in the
windpipe."

TO ABOLISH SNOW STORMS.
Future Generations in New York May
Never See One.

(New York Cor. Nashville American)
1t is possible that future genera
tions in Greater New York may never
see snow-storm, for a proposition
contemplating their abolishment has
at last been put forward. Every fall
New York prepares to clean the
streets of snow In a miraculously
short time, and every winter finds
the Street Cleaning Department un-
able to do so. The city is not quite
in the class of Chicago, where L. was
recently discovered that men were
still being carried on the pay rolls for
the purpose Of removing the big
snow of 1906, but it Is never able to
do much in the way of actually get
ting rid of the fall. After every
storm all squares and parks are filled
with miniature mountains Of snow,
shoveled together theoretically, to
be hauled away and dumped in the
river, but in reality to await
the destroying influence of good
thaw or rain rainstorm. A heavy
snowfall, too, has come to mean the
piling up in each gutter Of an impas-
sable bunker. Naturally, in the light
Of such conditions, suggestions for
handling the snow have been many.
: The latest and by far the most inge-
NOUS does not contemplate the hand
ling of the snow, but it's complete
abolishment. A chemist in this city
claims to have discovered a chemisal
which, If sprayed into the air during
storm, would Immediately change
the snow to rain at a height of 100
feet above the pavement, and at u
much lower cost than Is now neces-
sary for snow removed. Those per-
sons who fatten on street-cleaning
contracts are naturally contemptuous
and call 1t visionary and impossible.
But stranger things than the abolish
ment of snow have happened, and
should 1t come to pass only those per-
sons whose offices are above the
tenth story could ever expect to see
a sonW-storm.

Carolina farmers should breed horses
and mules Is that the State has ex-
cellent possibilities for stock raising,
and that when the supply is increas-
ed beyond the local needs the de-
mands Of outside markets can be
filled.
The greatest horse-raising State in
the country is Iowa, and the greatest
horse market for the number han
died is Chicago. However, it is esti-
mated that at least half Of these
horses are sent from Chicago to
other points, some for final sale, 9TH
ers for further fitting for market.
The highest class Of horses will gem
orally be found in the East, In New
York and Boston, and the highest
prices for good horses are to be had
in these cities. Des Moines, Iowa,
and Columbia, S. c., are quite near
the geographical center Of their re-
Spective States. Columbia Is over
400 miles nearer New York and Bos-
'oll IMAM lJco NIOlllcS. cOlu
Is just that much nearer the coun-
try's best horse market, and there
are three large cities and glol
ports on the Atlantic seaboard be
tween Columbia and New York, all
Of them on direct line from Co
lumbia.
go far as the markets are con-
cerned, the South Carolina farmer
has as good advantages as the Iowa
farmer. These advantages are not
developed, 1t is true, but the condi-
tions are full of latent possibilities.
If good horses are bred IN the
South the buyers will coon find it
out, and there need be no fear that
good prices Will not be obtained for
good products. w. w. Price.

Mixing of the Races.
(Yorkville Enquirer.D

(1orkVlllc EnQuirer.)
A lot Of New York cranks, white
men and white women, have organ
lied to promote the breaking down
Of color lines with a view to encour-
aging intermarriage between the
races. They gave a big dinner one
night last week and the features of
1t were number Of respectable wo-
in New York
seated by the side Of negro men, and
speeches by white men in advocacy
Of intermarriage Of the races. Posi-
bly, these foolish people. both white
and black, think they have entered
upon a meritorious crusad. Posi-
bly, they think they are working for
peace on earth and good will toward
men. But We think they are a lot Of
degenerate idiots. We do not believe
that God ever intended such a con-
summation as these people have in
view, and we do not believe He will
permit such a thing. These New
York men and women are instigated
by the devil rather, and If their eff
forts have any result at ALL those re-
suits will go hard with the poor
negroes who allow themselves to be
influenced by such idiotic example
In passing, however, we would re-
mark that there Is absolutely no OBJ
lection on our part to those New
York women marrying the negroes
with whom they sat at table, if they
want to do so.
