How to Tell if Your Hair is
Diseased.

Even if you have luxuriant
head of hair you may want to
know whether it is IN healthy
condition or not. 9S per cent. of
the people need a hair tonic.
Pull a hair out of your head
if the bulb at the end of the root
is white and shrunken, it proves
that the hair is diseased, and
reqaires prompt treatment if its
loss woul2 be avoided. If the
bulb is pink and full, the hair is
healthy.
We want every one whose
hair requires treatment to try
Rexall "93" Hair Tonic. We
promise that it shall not cost
anything if it does not give
satisfactory results. It is de-
signed TO overcome dandruff
relieve scalp irritation, TO slim
ulate the hair roots, tighten the
hair already IN the head, gro W

1t is because of what Rexall

Mr., Bede Speaks
For Mr., SIemp,

When announcement was
made at the school hall Satur-
day night that Mr.. Slemp had
found II impossible to get here,
there was much disappoint-
ment, but after hearing Mr..
Bede speak, all went away
thoroughly glad that they had
come anyway. Mr.. Slemp did
his best 20 get here, but he was
IN Buchanan county. a long
way from the railroad. and he
was unable to make the connec
tion.
Az the meeting, Hon. II. c..
l.. Richmond delivered the FIST
address, and made "a strong
personal appeal TO the people of
this vicinity 20 support Mr..
Slemp. both as their neighbor
ana as their congressman who
has brought 30 many substan-
tial benefits 10 Us. Uncle
Jack" GoOdloe introduced Mr..
Bede, and put the audience i'm
the best Of humor. Of course.
with his neat speech aud radi
ant earnestness.
The spirit of candor. the
common sense, the excellent
Optimism and the wholesome
humor that h one forth
throughout Mr.. Bede's entire
speech were the dominating
features that impressed them
selves upon every listener. No
one could have gone away
without feeling the better for
having heard him, and an who
failed TO hear him for any cause
are losers, in an appreciable
sense.
lie made a strong appeal for
patience and the application OF
plain common sense in the
working out of the many prob
lems of a great nation and a
great people, pointing out the
fact that the Republican party
has already done a vast deal
along this line, and are doing
more and more ell the time.
Also that the fact of our nation
being the greatest on the globe
and our people the most pros
porous and progressive, is un-
deniable proof of the great and
good work that the Republican
party has done, since our ma
tiOn has actually progressed TO
its present splendid conditions
under Republican policies. He
paid a high compliment TO Mr..
/ lSlemp's marked ability as an
efficient and successful con
gresham, and a like tribute to
his high character as a man.
He predicted that it will not be
long until Mr.. Siemp is made
Senator from Virginia, and al
that suggestion the audience
went wild with enthusiasm.
| There was no mistaking the
fact that Mr.. Slemp's home peo-
pie are fully appreciatiVe of his
already exceptionally high at
tainments, as we'll as the great
future than is before him, as a
man who is still young.
| Mr.. Bede's rational and kind
| ly humor should do much to
ward allaying any partisan
bitterness. and cause everyone
to consider these matters more
on the basis Of actual conditions
and facts that on what may
well be termed mere trivial par
