show Connie Doyle, the blond in
fielder of the Agriculture team, to be

work. Having trailed along behind the
leaders all season. he hit up a fast pace
in the stretch and when the wire was
crossed had an average of .442 for nine
teen games. There are several players
who have higher averages than Doyle,
two games.
Mccarthy of Treasury, with a percent
age of 1856. is second; Murphy and New
berry of the Agriculture team also die
some fine work with the stick. For Com
merce and Labor, Kinney was top man

publication of the averages, holds third
place In the league. and leads for Pos,

HOW | MADE
MY HAIR GROW
Weman With MarveIousIy Beautiful Hair
Gives Simple Home Prescription
Which She Used With Most
Remarkable Results.

I was greatly troubled with dandruff and
falling hair. I tried many advertised hair
preparations and various prescriptions, but
they all signally failed; many of them made
my hair greasy so It was impossible to comb
it or do it up properly. 1 think that many
Of the things 1 tried were positively injuri-
Gus, and from my own experience L cannot
too strongly caution you against using prep
arations containing wood alcohol and other
poisonous substances. L believe they injure
the roots Of the hair. After my long list of
failures, | finally found a simple prescrip-
tion which 1 used with most remarkable re-
suits and 1 can unhesitatingly state that it
is beyond doubt the most wonderful thing
for the hair have ever seen. Many of my
friends have also used it and obtained Won
derful effects therefrom. 1t not only is a
powerful stimulant to the growth of the
hair, and for restoring gray hair to its
natural color, but it is equally good for re-
moving dandruf, giving the hair life and
brilliancy, etc, and for the purpose Of keep
ing the scalp in first class condition. 1t also
makes the hair much easier to comb and ar
range in nice form. I have a friend who
used it two months and during that time it
not only SlOppeQ the ldlllAS u HIS udlI dAA
wonderfully increasing its growth but 1t
practically restored all of his gray hair to
its natural color. You obtain the in
gradients for making this wonderful prepar-
alton from almost any druggist. The pre-
scription is as follows:
Bay rum, o.; Menthol crystals, one-half
drachm; Lavona de Compose, o.; To-
Kalon perfume, 1 to 2 teaspoonfuls
Apply night and morning; rub thoroughly
into the scalp.
Go to your druggist and ask for the eight
ounce bottle containing six ounces of Bay
Rum, also one-half drachm Of MenthoI crys-
tails, and for two-ounce bottle of Lavona
de Composee. Mix the ingredients yourself
at your own home. Add the Menthol crys-
tails to the Bay Rum and then pour in the
Lavona de Compose and add the To-Kalon
perfume. Let it stand for one-half hour
and it is ready to use
