A HOME REMEDY THAT
STOPS FAILING HAIR

What is claimed to be one of the
best preparations for the hair can be
easily prepared in your own, home by
getting from your druggist one ounce
of Beta Quinol and half a pint of alco-
hol, mix the alcohol with half a pint
of water, then add the Beta Quinol.
Shake we'll together and it is ready
for use. The Beta Quinol contains oil
the best known chemicals Din highly
concentrated form, for the cure Of
dandruff and falling hair. If this is
rubbed into the roots of the hair every
day for a week or so, then two or three
times a week, your dandruff will surely
disappear and your hair will stop fall
ing out. This simple mixkure will
strengthen the roots of the. hair and
will make the hair light and fluffy Any
druggist will supply you with the Beta
Quinol and alcohol and it is preferable
to use warm water in mixing.

mitted the committee will consider
their adoption.
Mr.. Jones recommends that the
church be moved and placed In the
center OF the lot, and a ten-foot wing
built on either side. He suggests the
building of a chapel on the north end;
this chapel being a Sunday school
room, opening into the main auditor
ium of the church. Two tiers of
class rooms would be provided in this
addition. The south end of the church
would be added to by building choir
room, two robing rooms, pastors study,
etc. The remodeled building would
have two entrances, as at present, one
lobby being on the northeast corner,
and the other on the northwest. Mr.
Jones says that when the plans are
prepared the committee will be sur
prised to see what a pretty church
can be made out of the present build
ing. Jones estimates the cost of the
Improvement at $4,000.

proceeded to describe her as the

and so on, until his interlocutor guess
ed to whom he was referring. Even
the names of common objects often
failed him completely. On one occa-
sion when he wanted an umbrella he
said: II can't tell its name, but ! can
tell its history Strangers take 1t

a pathetic scene when he attended

Nero's Golden House.

The golden house" of Nero seems
from all accounts to have been the
most stupendous dwelling place ever
built for a mortal man. Even If we
regard the ancient descriptions as
somewhat exaggerated 1t remains one
of the largest royal houses ever built,
and the internal decorations seem to
have been incomparably magnificent.
1t was surrounded by parks, woods
and pools of great size, which appear
to have been entirely within the walls.
The colonnades of the house itself ex-
tended a mile in length and crossed
one of the main thoroughfares Of the
city. The cities Of the east were ran
sacked for masterpieces of Greek art
for the interior. The walls shone with
gold and pearls, and the roof rested on
marble columns of enormous size and
beauty.-New York American.
