In Less Than Three Years, Partisan
Sage, the Splendid Hair Tonic,

There is a reason for the phenomenal
sale of Partisan sage In the United

LAKE COMMERCE
CONTINUES STEADY

Lake commerce during September,
as measured by the volume of ship
ments In domestic trade from all lake
ports, continued practically at the
same high rate as during the pre-
ceding month, according to a bulletin
issued by the Department of Com
merce and Labor.
The total shipments. as reported TO
the Bureau of Statistics, amounted to
L, 5ZI, 800 net tons, compared with
9,45S, sos net tons during Septemb Der,
1908. and 11,137,927 net tens during
Septem Der, 1907.
There are indications that both the
grain and coal movements may be
hampered somewhat by reason of the
growing car shortage, and the heavy
demand for vessel tonnage by ore
shippers.

hcokworn and its inroads into the
health of the poor people of the South.
the newspapers played it up, and the
people of the country laughed long and
hard at the idea Of there being a lazi-

been studying the worm. and its exist

said today.
