ARE MICROBES
IN YOUR SCALE?
1t Has Been Proved That Mi
crobeS Cause Badness.

Professor Unna, of Hamburg, Ger
many, and DR.. Sabourand, the leading
French dermatologist, discovered that
microbe causes badness Their theory
has time and again been amply verified
through research experiments carried
on under the observation of eminent
scientists This microbe lodges in the
Sebun, which is the natural hair oil
and when permitted to flourish it de-
stroys the hair follicles and in time the
pores entirely close, and the scalp grad :
ually takes on a shiny appearance.
When this happens, there is no hope of
the growth of hair being revived
Dandruff is contagious disease,
which is largely due to destructive
microbe, which when left to pursue it's
course causes itching scalp, falling hair
and badness. Dsndruff is caused by
the nicrobe affecting the glands which
produce the sebaceous matter, which
latter then unnaturally dries and scales
of
We have remedy which will, We
honestly believe, remove danuruff, ex-
terminate the microbe, promote good
circulation in the scalp and around the
nsir roots, tighten and revitalize the
hair roots and overcome badness, so
long as there is any life left in the hair
roots.

SENATOR A. s. CLAY TALKS
OF STEALS BY SUGAR TRUST

washington Correspondence Oonstitution1
Washington, D. c., cember5-|
Senator Clay of Georgia, who, in
speech that was a feature of the tariff
debate last summer, declared that the
sugar trust was defrauding the nation
out of millions of dollars, is of the
opinion that congressional investiga-
lion Of the sugar scandal would be a
iltile and useless thing
The Georgia Senator, who ia regarded
s. the best informed man in congress
On the sugar question. believes shat the
proper way for subjecting the sugar
trust to mandate of the law is by inn
mediate requisition of the sugar sched-
2les Of the tariff act.
"A congressional Investigation would
amount to little or nothing" observed
Senator Clay. "These Investigations are
usually expensive and partisan, and do
not get at the bottom of the frauds. II
the cor:ts will do their whole duty,
these frauds can be ferreted out much
better than by congressional investi.
cation. | am not in the least surprised
that the treasury and the department.

eminent has Annually been swindled
ont Of large sums as the result Of under
weighing.
CLAY KNEW OF THE STEAL.
Il charged on the floor of the senate
/ ating the last session of congress that
the government had been swiudled out
Of more than ten million dollars by the
american Sugar Refining Company,
commonly known as the sugar trust,
and presented facts to prove the state
aaent, but it was utterly impossible to
induce the senate to give the infamous
sugar schedules the attention they
deserved. 1t is amazing to me 60 think
that in the framing Of the tariff SEIZED
ules no change was made ia the DingIey
rates that effect sugar"
The sugar trust can never be de-
stroyed until the government permits
competition from abroad At the time
Of the passage OF the Dlngley law ninety
ger cent of the nnrefined sugar came
from abroad, AID was subjected to a
duty Of 1888 liz per hundred.

comes from Cuba, and all the while
the tariff has remained the same on
refined sugar.
IN PARTNERSHIP WITH MoRMoNe
The trust has been enabled to pur-
chase its sugar at low rates without re-
ducing the price to the consumer. Re-
fined sugar, on which there is tariff
duty of l95,.is barred from this cuuntry
and the trust is practically without
competitor.
The price of refined sugar to the
consumer is increased nearly one half
on account of the present tariff rates.
The profits of the trust are so great it
now practically controls the sugar re-
fineries of the United States.
THAT the trust is in partnership with
the Mormon Church, and powerful
factor in the politics OF the United
States. is an admitted fact. TAX e
Moody on Trusts and he demonstrates
that the profits of the sugar trust have
more than doubled each year. Yet this
trust was not satisfied with what it
made, and went to work to steal from
the government to make it more.
"With all, this information before the
senate no change was made in the su-
gar schedules. This is the astounding
thing to the. How congress could re-
fuse to reduce the duty on refined SUI
gar surpssses my comprehension.
SUGAR TRUST IN HANDS OF THIEVES.
1.-The sugar trust has been in the
hands ot lot OF thieves almost from
the time OF its organization, and il
deserves no mercy at the hands OF
congress. In my judgement 1t cannot
be crushed until the sugar schedules
are revised by congress, and strong
healthy competition given the sugar
industry The officers OF the sugar
trust----the big fellows ard not the
underlings--- should be prosecuted for
the frauds practiced against the gov
ernment, and should he sent to the
penitentiary When congress -efused

A Lazy Artists Wit.

An Austrian prince once sent his
servant to a painter remarkable for
his idleness as well as skill and gave
him picture to copy. It was the
painting of an old farmhouse. In a
few days the servant went to see
what progress had been made and
on his return informed the prince
that all was done but one chimney,
on which the painter was then en-
ployed. A week passed, and the pic
ture was not returned. The prince
then resolved to 60 himself. He did
so and found the artist still at the
unfinished chimney. "How is this, j"
said the prince severely-"all this
time employed on one chimney%
II have been obliged to do and
undo it several times" said the art
ist.
'For what reason?" asked the
prince.
Because" said the artist coolly,

Are Soups DiqestibIe7

There are varied opinions about
the digestibility of soups. Some
physicians disapprove Of them for
weak stomachs, and all physicians
condemn them for obesity. Milk or
cream soups, purees they are called,
are wholesome and easily digested,
but meat soups have a tendency to
give an oversupply Of uric acid, just
as has meat itself. Therefore those
with a tendency to rheumatism or
diabetes should eat sparingly of it.
Soup is thought to be more digesti-
bic if it is eaten very slowly. Hold
each spoonful in the mouth for a
few seconds before swallowing. This
simple precaution has in many cases
enabled those who thought they
could not eat any kind Of soup 10

A SALE OF ANTIQUES
The Trick . 9hrevd Dealer Played On
an Astute Banker.

The Trick . shrs~d Dealer Played On
IN Astuts Banker.
A story told in the tMemories Of
an Old Collector" makes clear the
tricks in trade to which an unscru-
pulous dealer in antiquities will re-
sort IN order to get large sum for
his wares The two parties were
Alessandp Castellani, the clever
dealer, and Baron Adolph Roth
schild Of Paris.
Castellani had managed to get
hold Of q superb enameled ever, to-
gether with the dish on which it
stood He knew that Baron Adolph
had a fancy for objects Of this kind,
but he also knew that Rothschild
was never so carried away by his
fancy as to pay more than was rea-
sonable for anything that pleased
him. Castellani devised q bit Of
strategy.
The baron on arriving in Rome
visited Castellani's shop and was
shown the best things the dealer
had except the enameled dish and
ever. When everything else had
been inspected Castellani drew from
a hidden cupboard the dish, but not
the ever. The baron 1as so pleased
with the dish that he agreed to buy
the lot Of which it was a part, for
one Of the customs Of the shop was
not to sell rare specimen apart
from the group Of which it formed
the principal object The baron paid
heavily for the whole, lamenting
that there was no ever to stand on
the dish, and departed for Florence.
There he was visited by an agent
who told him of an old lady who
wished to sell several beautiful ma
jolica pieces. He visited her house
in the country and was disappointed.
As the majolica lady, seemingly cha
grined, left the room to order re-
freshments the baron saw through
the open door Of a bedroom a ever
covered by a glass shade on which
rested a wreath Of immortelles.
When the lady returned the baron
asked permission to examine the
ever. It was brought out, and the
baron saw that the enamel was of
the same work as that of the dish
he had bought, but he wished to be
certain that the foot of the ever
would fit into the hollow of the
dish. He inquired the price of the
ever and was told by the lady that
it was not for sale, as it was the
only souvenir she possessed Of her
husband.
The baron went back to his
rooms, had the dish unpacked and
found that the foot of the ever fit
ted it perfectly. The next day the
baron sent the agent to offer the
old lady a princely sum for the
ever. He brought back a refusal to
sell. But at last the widows scru-
pies were overcome.
Castellani, with his italian cum
ming, had planned the whole affair.
The agent who called and the old
lady who was sentimental were his
aids in making the baron pay a
much larger sum than he would
have given had ever and dish been
sold together. The Italian shop
mans scheme had taken in one Of
the most astute Of business men.

KIT CARSON.
The Pioneee Work Of the Famous Old
Frontjersman.

TIE P.onsss Work Of the Famous Old
FrontIersman.
The last of the great frontiers
men in America was Christopher
Carson, better known as Kit Car
son. He was much the same type OF
man as Daniel Boone and Davy
Crockett-simple, brave and honest
with himself and with all men. Like
Boone and Crockett, he was both
feared and loved by the Indians,
and his fame az a hunter and trap
per was known from the Columbia
river to the Rio Grande, through all
the Sierras and the Rocky noun
tains.
The field Of his operations was
larger than that of either Boone or
Crockett. They were essentially
backvoodsmen, trained in the for
ests Of Tennessee, kentucky and
North Carolina. Kit Carson was
ranger of the vast prairies and the
great mountains Of the far west.
Where the two former travelled hun
dreds of miles Kit Carson travelled
thousands, and where the former
had adventures with q few tribes
of Indians Kit Carson had dealings
and encounters with score, from
the fierce Apaches Of northern
Mexico to the Comanches, Diggers,
Utes and others Of the north
Boone led civilization to Ken
tucky; Crockett led the way into
western Tennessee and later into
Texas, but Kit Carson was one Of
the first to blaze the way over the
Rockies and Sierras to the Golden
Gate. The places that Fremont ex-
plored Kit Carson had discovered
years before, and on all but one Of
the noted exploring expeditions Of
Fremont Kit Carson was the trust
ed guide and intimate friend That
one exploring expedition which Kit
Carson did not guide was fraught
with terrible disaster and the most
awful suffering and hardships ever
known by party Of adventures in
the west since the days of Spanish
conquistadores-
Whenever Kit Carson accompa-
MED an expedition it was usually
successful. His powers of endurance
were remarkable. He could 60 for
days without food, but he always
kept moving toward his destination,
whether across the heated and arid
deserts of Arizona or through the
binding snow blizzards and drifts
of the northern Sierras. He was a
host in himself, and his presence al
ways inspired men who otherwise
would have given up in despair.
As a hunter and trapper he prob
ably had no equal.-Boston Globe.
