COUNTY SCHOOL SUPERINTENDENT.

0NE OF the unpleasant incidents of the "Wet"
~ or DRY" agitation is the discussion about
the appointment of a superintendent OF the
New Castle County schools. The Governor reap
pointed Mr.. Spaid, who has been the superin-
dent for some years and whose reappointment
was made we believe, because of his services
and not because he ardent advocate of
the DRY" cause during the local option cam
paign.
Another applicant for the position was Mr.
Messersmith, principal of the Newark public
schools. The fact that Mr.. Messersmith had
the endorsement VI the faculty of Delaware Col
lege for the place is a circumstance that should
attest to his ability. Mr.. Messersmith is also
known because of a very good book he has
written on Delaware--the government and so on
of the State-a book that should be studied in
every school in Delaware if it is not at present
1t appears, however that Mr.. Messersmith
was regarded by some as the wet" candidate
It may be true that he had the support Of some
Influential liquor men," Naturally they would
oppose Mr.. Spaid because he assailed their busi-
ness. But it is also natural that the friends OF
Mr.. Messersmith should desire it made clear
that he was not the candidate OF the anti-License
)Norces and did not enter the contest for the pur
shoase of drawing the lines between the "Wets"
and the "Drys."
AS we have said we believe the Governor re-
appointed Mr., Spaid because of his record as
superintendent of Schools just as he reap
pointed the other county superntendents for
the same reason It is not we'll to change the
staff of county superintendents unless there are
very grave reasons calling for a change. We
do not think that the Governor considered the
wet or Dry part of the matter. Should he
let such things affect every appointment he may
make his path would be strewed with misery.

A Simple Prescription For the
Hair.

In the good old days our mothers
used TO tell us to use garden sage
for dandruff and falling hair. A sim
pie infusion was made of the common
garden sage and applied to the roots
of the hair. This old time remedy Is
still roed in many sections of the coul-
try to this day. 1t has also been dis.
covered that the Indians or the north
west used TO make q brew (or teal
OF the wild sage (sage brush) and ap-
ply it for all scalp affections. White
people also used this sage brush tea
with good results. A careful study
has been made of the different kin,s
OF sage and 1t has been found that
the wild sage or sage brush contains
much more OF this certain curative
property than does the tame sage.
The reason for this is apparent The
wild sage growing as 1t does In a soil
rich In sulphur and volcanic ash nat
urally contains much more medicinal
matter.
One OF the main objections to t3e
use of these crude preparations, es-
pecially so Of the wild sage. was Tie
disagreeable odor OF the brush. This
objection has been overcome after
three years of careful experimenting
In laboratory especially fitted for
the purpose SO that you can now pro-
cure q preparation free from all tho
Gisagreeable odors but still containing
all the active principles of the Wild
sage. This preparation is guaranteed
to cure dandruff and stop falling hair.
and Will do so if directions are care
fully followed.
