WOMEN'S BEAUTY
II Can Never Be Perfect Without
LuXuriant Hair.

A head of luxuriant hair is sure to
be attractive. But nature has not
crowned every woman with glorious
hair. Some very lovable women she
has treated rather scantily in this res
pect.
For instance, there are tens of thous
ands of women in America today who
have harsh, faded and lustreless hair
who are unattractiye simply because
they do not know that nowadays even
the whims of nature can be overruled
by the genius of science.
II you are a woman without beauti
full hair, do not permit your attractions
to be hidden because of this slight mis-
fortune.
Go today to VIM. L. Gokay and buy
a large bottle of Partisan Sage for so
cents, use it each night, and you will
notice the harsh, repulsive hair disap-
pear and in its place will come soft,
silky bright and luxuriant hair.
Partisan Sage is guaranteed by VIM.
L. Gokay to cure dandruff, itching of
the scalp, and stop falling hair in two
weeks, or money back.

Cans Bill Passes House.

The Gam bill, providing for statu- tory statewide prohibition, passed the House Monday afternoon by vote of B to 27. The bill passed about 3:20 o'clock, and it's passage was foi- lowed by demonstration lasting seV- eral minutes. So great was the dem- onstration and general confusion which followed that the House aban- doned an attempt to continue fur ther business and adjourned until Tuesday morning.
 The passage of the bill followed three days of the hardest fighting the legislature has seen this session. It also followed the reject'on of ;he Simpson substitute bill providing for submission of the question of state wide prohibition 10 the people at special election, which was turned down by vote of Al to 8 at the close of the morning session.
 The last day of the prohibition fight in the House was witnessed by as many spectators as could crowd into the House chamber. Every inch, almost. of available floor space on the floor of the House. in the lobby and in the gallery, was filled. A hundred or more women were on the floor of the House, seated among the General applause and cheering for several minutes fol- lowed the announcement of the vote on the Gam measure, and women and men prominently connected with the prohibition movement in Arkansas circulated among the representatives on the floor and congratulated them On the victory.

WESTERN CANADA'S SPLENDID
 CROP YIELD FOR 1908.
AMERICANS PROFiTED LARGELY AND SEND BACK SATlSFAC-
 TORY REPORTS.

The census branch of the Depart ment of Agriculture, Ottawa, Canada, has completed its returns of the show ing of Western Canada's grain yield for 1908, and the reports make very interesting reading In the three prov inces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta, which comprise what may be known as Central Canada, there was a total wheat yield of about 107, ,000,0 900 bushels, worth to the farmer about 3S5, 5,000, 900; in addition to this the oat, barley and flax crops were worth an- other $35,000,000. Letters have been received from many of the settlers from the United States. From these, that of Rev. Oscar l.. King has been selected. He lives in the vicinity of Edmonton, Alberta. and what he says will be of interest to those who con- template moving to Central Canada. Every line of the letter is interesting. Those who wish for the particulars as to how to secure homesteads and pre- emptions should write any Canadian Government agent Mir King says:
 "Mr. M. V. McInnnes, Detroit, Mich igan: I am well satisfied with Al berta This country offers excellent opportunities for anyone to make good home for himself and family if he Is willing to put up with a few hard knocks for the first two or three years. But it is worth a few hard knocks to get a 160-acre farm of rich, productive land with no mortgage on it. This province is we'll fitted for grains, stock raising and dairying. We have found the climate generally healthful, more healthful than Mich igan, and although the thermometer sometimes drops to 40 degrees below zero in winter, yet we do not seem to feel that temperature any more than we did 5 or 10 degrees below zero in Michigan. We like the winters.
 "The Government takes great inter- est in the education of the people and quickly aids the settlers in establish ing schools where they are called for. The schools, though graded differently than those in the States, are efficient and advancing. Our great drawback udS Uccu luc anu iu"oNdu"NS railway facilities, but new roads are being rapidly built and many more are projected through various parts of the province. The new policy of the Alberta government to construct a great many branch lines throughout the province will greatly help all parts of the country. If those new settlers who have to go back considerable distance from existing railroads and towns to find free homesteads will but locate along the line of a project ed railroad they will in two or three years be near both town and railroad. When I first came to this country three and half years ago the home stead took was 75 miles from a rail road town; now there is a railroad 25 miles north, another 25 miles south, and third is being built through my neighborhoOd.

With The Legislators
Simpson Substitute Defeated.

Simpson DciSahSo'
 After more than two hours of not debate. the House voted to reJect lle Simpson substitute bill, providing TOT il submission of the question of slate- wide prohibition to the people at special election in July, the vote on reflection being A to 8. Immediately following this, the motion to recon slider that vote and lay on the taple was made by Mir. Thompson or III dependence. resulting in a vote or 43 to 29 in favor of tabling further con sideration of the substitute. lhls brings the House up to the cohsldeIa tion of the adoption of the Gam olll' providing for statutory statewide prohibition.
 The galleries and Hobbies were crowded at an early hour III eA- pectancy over the result of the vote, friends and opponents of the supsu- tute being well represented Tn tne large number of visitors. Mr. Martin resumed the consideration of the Gam bill, in his fight against the re- lection of the Simpson substitute He denied emphatically that those op- posing the Gam bill were favorable 10 the liquor interests or were fill clustering. but were absolutely honest in their convictions. Mir. Dunaway of Pulaski also spoke against the Gam bill and in favor of the submission plank of the Democratic State plat form, saying it was right and reason able that the people have vote in the matter.
 Mir. Simpson, author of the substi- ute, made d vigorous defense of his substitute. and declared that his people sent him here on the issue of supporting the submission plank, and that he would not under any circum- stances allow himself to be swerv2d from what he believed to be his duty.
