the governor regarding Dorsey's case
Both attorneys state that the governor

Duplication of Work.

DR.. kober admitted that if Congress did
not want to make the head of the pro-
posed department a member of the cabi-
net doctors who favor that idea would
not mind it much. He did think, how
ever, that there was a great deal of
duplication in the government depart
rnents that could be eliminated. He said
there were number of chemical labora-
tories doing the same work In Washing
ton.
What work?" asked Mr.. Mann.
Dr. Kober said he referred to the work
Of the laboratory of the bureau of chem
istry and that of the public health and
marine hospital service as examples.
One of the bureaus that should go over
to the proposed department of health, In
the opinion of DR.. Kober, was the bureau
of vital statistics Of the census office. He
thought the new department would give
it more authority and dignity and that il
would thereby be better able to gather
figures throughout the country. Mr.. Mann
remarked that no branch of the govern
ment has more autocratic powers under
the Constitution than the census office.
New Bureau Of Mines.
The committee seemed somewhat sur
prised when DR.. Kober advocated the
transfer Of the bureau Of mines created
by Congress to the proposed department
Of health.
DR.. Kober said that the bureau OF
mines had to do with industrial by
giene.''
Mr.. Adamson suggested that mas
much as the power OF the federal gov
eminent over public health arises only
from it's control of commerce, 1t might
be good idea to transfer all OF the
bureaus of the Department of Com
merce and Labor to the new depart
ment.
THAT was our original idea," DR.
Kober said.
Mr.. Mann noted that it was proposed
in one of the bills to transfer the ply
sicians Of the pension Office, too, and
inquired If that wouldn't result in a
conflict of authority.
'Oh, we would transfer the whole
pension Office" declared the witness

Early Piety Not Always the Cause OF
Badness.

| In Paris there lived q great physician
of world wide renown who proved to the
world that falling hair i caused by mi
crobes.
Dr. Sagerbund proved that badness is
directly due to these perniciouS and per-
sistent microbes. He proved To every
physician on earth that these invisible
yet vociferous little devils dug and bur
rowed into the hair root and finally de-
voured the hair bulb. This of course de
stroyed the vitality of the hair which fell
out and caused thinning Of the hair and
finally badness
Inasmuch as it is an accepted fact that
badness, falling hair and dandruff are
caused by germ, doesn't it stand to
reason that the only way to prevent such
calamities is to kill the germs?
And doesn't it stand to reason that the
only way to kill these germs is to use
Partisan Sage, which Rowditch. Webster
& Co. have so much faith in that they
guarantee it to cure dandruT, falling hair
and itching scalp in two weeks. or
money back?
Partisan Sage is a delightful hair tonic
and is pleasant to use. 1t is not sticky
or greasy. and contains only those in
gradients that will surely benefit.
1t is now sold by druggists all over
America. and by Bowditch Webster &
Co. for 80 cents large bottle. Ii is used
