Trv This Formula For Dan
 druff and Falling Hair
From Le Matin, Paris, Francs.)

FrOm Le Matin, Paris, Franca.)
 In response to request from our cor respondent Mime. Gracone, reprint form ula that appeared in issue of January 16 for falling hair and dandruff The in- gradients in this formula may be found in the drug stores of France Germany, England and United States, and the prep aration is to my belief the most satis- factory and dependable one for the above troubles; also for giving the hair vitality, health and luxuriant growth.
 One ounce beta quinol Qiquid), half pint alcohol, half pint bay rum or warm water; mix well and apply daily. Get the ingredients and mix them yourself at home. If your druggist hasn't them he can easily get them for you.

CHICKENS STOLEN.
Bold Thief Carries Them Through the
 Crowd on Fourth Avenue.

A robber quietly removed a coop of chickens from in front of the Olim & Mendel grocery store on Fourth avenue last night The boldness of the theft was remarkable, the street being thronged with people while the full force of em- ployes of the store was busy at work around the place. It is thought that a negro drayman stopped his wagon, picked up the coop and quietly drove away. The coop contained IA hens.
 Chicken thieves also got in their work on the hen house of A. c. Dupor of 2412 Seventh avenue. Seven hens, one rooster and three Pekin ducks disap- peared from this roost, the robbers leav- ing sack as a remembrance of their visit The owner is sure he could be identify the fowls.
 Reports of the visit of chicken thieves are received every day, as many as a dozen roosts having been robbed in one night.
