The Philadelphia Record.

There are three essential ele.
ments, according to "The Phila-
delphia Record" that makes for
success In modern newspaper:
First, it must print all the news,
with an eye to the interests Ct all
types of readers, attractive and
entertaining for N, whatever po
litical cause 1t may editorlally
espouse, it must be fair, free of
outside dlctatlon, and sincere in
advocating the policies it believes
to be best for the general well
fare. Third, it must be clean,
wholesome and elevatlng IN It's
influence.
"rhe Record" itself possesses
all these elements of success, and
then some. Independently Demo
cratic in politics, it is as nearly
nonpartlsan as a newspaper can
be In It's news columns, which
fully and accurately cover the en-,
tire field tributary to Philadel-
phia. Aside from It's news de-
partments, including It's daily
market reports, which are the
recognized authority IN produce
transactions, it is pre-emlnent IN
several other features that have
contributed immensely to it's
popularity as family newspaper.
The last word on household at
fairs, science, fashions and farm
progress is found in It's regular
departments. Its famous ere
porters Nosegay" column Is wide
ly quoted throughout the coun-
try. 1t is the leader IN the field
of sports. 1t is practically the
only daily paper in the East for
horse news. And It's cartoonist,
who hits off the principal events
of the day In inimltable style, is
second to none IN the United
States.
''rhe Philadelphia Record" has
another element of news value
that Is of particular interest to
the women of the family. The
store news Is generally of sec.
ondary Importance IN their eyes
only to the chronicle of the
worlds doings. "The Record, "
1T is worth noting, prints more
departmentstorea advertising than
any other newspaper in Phlladel.

Birthday Surprise Party.

Saturday, Oct. Sth. Samuel G..
Henry, having reached his tweu.
ty-sixth birthday, his sister
Lillian planned to give him the
surprise of his life by having his
many friends call, and spend the
evening in any amusements they
saw fit, suitable to the occasion
Consequently about eight o.
clock automobiles, buggles, and
hacks began to arrive loaded to
their fullest capacity until Sam
uel began to think there was d
funeral in town, but after scru-
unlzlng their countenances he
found too much hilarity written
to warren such a conclusion.
Then he became wise to the Sit
cation.
Those present from Saltillo
we're; Mamie Sellers, May Mort,
Edward Klmmel, Edgar Weaver,
John and Harold Swope and

ONE HUNDRED YEARS AGO.
What Has Been Wrought by Inventors
ID a Century.

Here are a few facts taken
from the Household journal
which show how much more life
is today than in "the good old
days" about which we hear.
Not until February OF 1912 did
the people of Kentucky know thai
Madison was elected President ID
the previous November.
In 1894 one of the leading rail
roads of the United States print
ed on its time table:-"The loco.
motive Will leave the depot every
day at ten o'clock If the weather
is fair"
The first typewriter was re.
ceived by the public with sus-
plcion. 1t seemed subverslve OF
existing conditions. A reporter
who took one into a court room
first proved Its real worth.
In England some centuries ago
If an ordinary workman without
permission moved from one par
sh to another in search of work
or better wages he was branded
with a hot iron.
One hundred years ago the
fastest travel IN the world was
the Great North road IN England
after 1t had been put into It's best
condition. There the York mail
coach tore along at the rate OF
ninety miles a day, and many
persons confidently predicted
divine vengeance on such un'
seemly haste.
When BENJAMIN Ere nkhn first
thought of starting a newspaper
IN Philadelphia many of his
friends advised against it because
there was paper published IN
Boston. Some of them dou bted
whether the country could sup
port two newspapers.

IT GROWS HAIR.
Here Are Facts We Want You to Prove
at Our Risk.

Marvellous as 1T may seem,
Rexall "93" Hair Tonic has grown
hair on heads that were once
bald. Of course, IN none of these
cases were the hair roots dead,
nor had the scalp taken on a
glazed, shiny appearance.
Rexall "93' Hair Tonic acts
scientifically, destroying the
germs which are usually respon-
sible for badness. Itpenetrates
to the roots of the hair, stimulat
ing and nourishlng them. 1t is a
most pleasant toilet necessity, is
delicately perfumed, and will not
gum or permanently stain the
hair.
We want.you to get bottle of
Raxail 1893" Hair Tonic and use 1t
as directed. If it does not re
lleve scalp irritation, remove dan
druff, prevent the hair from fall
ing out and promote an increased
growth of hair, and In every way
give entire satisfaction, simply
come back and tell us, and with.
out question or formallty we will
hand back to you every penny
you paid us for 1t. Two sizes,
