Men Old at IS
One Million Baldheadswho Thought
Dandruff Wasn't Dangerous

In the United States and Canada To-
day there are nearly million men
who at IS can be put in the baldhead
class.
When these men had thick, vigorous
hair fandruff made it's appearance.
That was the time to attack the en-
envy of manlzind-the persistent little
devil called a dandruff microbe, or
germ that burrows deep down into the
hair root and saps it of the vitality
that is so essential to the hair.
Young men or any man, for that
matter. beware of the dslndruff germ !;
it is not a theory, but an actual con
dition that confronts you. That dan
druf is caused by a germ, IS proven
beyond question. That this germ de-
stroys the hair root is today mat
ter Of common knowledge.
The Lee e Osgood Co, the DRUGGISTS
have the remedy that kills the dandruil
germs They guarantee it to eradicate
dandruff stop falling hair and ltchina
scalp in two weeks, or money back. IL

obtained at druggists in every town II

The following circular has been is
sued by Tax Commissioner w H. Cor
bin to the board of assessors through
out the state:
Tax mmfSSiOners Office.
Hartford, Sept Is, 1910.
Chairman Board of Assessors:
Dear Sir: Under the new law. which
practically creates a continuous board
of assessors it would seem very de-
sirable for the tax lists to be printed
and ready for distribution on Oct l.
This is the date given in the sta tute
on which property is listed for taxation
purposes, and any taxpayers should
have the privilege of making out such
q list, in accordance with his conven-
fence, on or after that date until Nov
1. as provided.
1t would seem quite advantageous
that the board of assessors should. il
possible be in session or available or
election day at a convenient point near
the voting place, so that those who
wish can secure lists or hand in anC
make oath to the same at that time
This ought to be of definite convenience
to a large number of taxpayers and Il
the assessors. Further, it would seen
proper. also, for you to post your no
tice. and cause the same to be printed
in a newspaper as soon as convenient
without waiting for the annual cleo
ton.
I trust you viii agree with me thai
the suggestions as indicated above ar,
practical and desirable, and that YOU
Will be able to act accordingly
Yours very truly.

NATIONALS AFRAID,
SAYS BAN JOHNSON
Declares Long Schedule An
Attempt to EVade the

BELIEVES CHANCE WILL
FIND EQUAL In MACK

Ban Johnson still believes that the
long schedule adopted by the National
League last February was an attempt
to sidestep the issue for the worlds
championship In an interview at EX-
celsior Springs, Mo-, several days ago,
Mr.. Johnson said
Il cannot help but believe the Ma
tional League deliberately prolonged
its season I'm the hope Of getting out
of playing the worlds series. We
finish our schedule on October 8, but
theirs, involving the same number Of
games. continues until October 15
believe the prolongation was done
with the idea of giving the Nationals
a chance to evade the series.
But the American League will hold
the other organization to the agree
team to play If there's snow on the
ground.
Connie Macks Athletics are sure
to win the American League pennant.
I do not believe Boston, New York or
Detroit has a chance.

chance TO repeat
"The' Athletics will beat either the
Cubs or the Pirates for the world s
pennant. ! think It is time for our
league to win the highest honors in
baseball. There was considerable feel
ing In our own organization against
Detroit because of its three successive
failures to win the worlds champion
ships For that reason most of the
clubs will be glad to see Connie
Mack's great team make the fight
against the National League cham
piOns
Mack has a staff of great pitchers.
Coombs, Morgan. Plank and Bender
are all full capable of holding their
own against the crack pitchers of the
National League. Morgan. who didn't
show much in st. Louis, is one of the
greatest pitchers in the profession.
Connie Mack is a great field gem
eral. Franch Chance if his team wins
the National League pennant. will
more than find his equal in Mack.
Chance is a great playing first base
man and a good field strategist. but
Mack knows all that he knows and
more. I think Mack is one of the
greatest baseball men of the times. If
he goes into the worlds championship
fight with his team in good condition
he wlll win the series"

NATIONAL UMPS
TO BE WEEDED OUT
Tom Lynch Says He Will Do
the Pulling and New
York is Glad

BY United Press Leased Special Wire.
NEW YORK. Sept. 2--The announce
ment by President Tom Lynch. of the
National League, that he is going to
weed out his umpires before next sea-
son is looked upon by the New York
baseball public as the dawning Of a
much needed light i'm the National
League.
Incompetent umpiring is the one
great fault Of the game as played in
.,iPs older league. according to local
fans and players. Manager McGraw
will especially welcome Lynch's an
nouncement. for the scrappy leader of
the Giants has had more "run-ins'
with Umpire Rigler and other arbiters
than any other manager in the league
and has spent much of his time in
banishment from the field through the
rulings of the umpires.
Il is conceded here that the Ameri-
can League has a much stronger stan
Of umpires than the National. a. condi-
tion OF affairs which. If not corrected
is bound TO increase the popularity o
the newer league at the expense Of tn
older.
