The Growing New EnaIand Cities.

Providence secure in it's title as the second city of New England, can look with a certain measure of good -teI1- pered amusement upon the census as pirations of its neighbors. New Bel ford passing its estimate on the as- sessors returns. credits itself with a population of 106.914 as of May first: in view of which optimistic guess it may be well to advise the old-ttrle whaling town that the federal euumer- ators are likely to make a different showing. Hartford has been regarding itself with considerable complacency as a city of one hundred and twelve thou sand inha abitants. but it is now wfs- pered that the census will reveal oaly ninety seven thousand. Springfield, ac- cording to melancholy Hartford paper is due to show ninety thousand having gone forward by leaps ard bounds in the last ten years. TIo much stress, however may easily be laid on figures of numerical growth The question is whether our New Eng land cities, all of which may be ex- pected to exhibit some gain in numbers since 1900, are becoming commensu- rately better--Providence Journal.

Baldheaded Row
Early Piety Not Always the
 Cause of Baldnsss

In Paris there lived a great physi- elan of world wide renown wno proved to the world that failing uair is caused by microbes.
 Dr. Sagerbund proved that badness is directly due to these permcious and persistent microbes. He proved to every physician on earth that these m visible yet vociferous little devils dug and bufrowed into the hair root ana finally devoured the hair bulp. Iliis of course destroyed the vitality or me hair which fell out and caused thln- ming of the hair and finally baldness.
 Inasmuch it Is an accepted 1act that baidness, falling hair and dan : druff are caused by q germ, doesn't It stand to reason that the only way 10 prevent such calamities is to XII tne germs?
 And doesn't it stand to reason that the only way to kill these germs IS 10 use Parisian Sage, which The Lee & Osgood Go. has so much faith in that they guarantee 1t to cure dandrun' falling hair and itching scalp in two weeks or money back?
 Parisian Sage is deiightiui mar tonic and is pleasant to use. It is not sticky or greasy, 1nd contains only those ingredients that will sure bene- fit.
 It is now sold by druggists all over America, and by The 1.ee & Osgood Co. for 50 cents d large bottle. It IS used extensively by women who desire luxuriant hair with a radiant luster' The girl with the Auburn hair js on every package.

The S6,0O0 campaign of the Young Mems Christian association, conducted this week, ended Friday night with a flood of contributions that knocked the top clean out of the thermometer on the front of the building, which has measured the growing amount through the week. When all the returns were in on Friday night the grand total footed up $6,700.80 coming from 553 contributors. The last day of the cam paign netted $1,622.
 This grand result made the meeting of the various teams on Friday evening truly love feast. Nearly forty, in c1uding Rev. Dr. Lewellyn Pratt, Dr. $. H. Howe, Rev. c. H. Ricketts. Rev F. C. Wright, Rev. G. H. Ewing, Rev. H. J. Wycl1of and Rev. J. F. Cobb. sat down to a bountiful supper served by the ladies of the Broadway Congre- gational church. The committee hay ing this in charge consisted of Mrs w. H. Dawley, chairman, Mrs. James L. Case Mrs. William H. Oat, Mrs Harvey M. Briggs, Mrs. H. M. Pollock, Mrs. Henry G. Peck and Miss Marion Bishop, assisted by the following young ladies at waitreSSeS: Miss Helen Hunt ington, Miss Helen Browning. Miss Villette Peck, Miss Grace Lester and Miss Helen Jones. Dainty American flags were placed at each plate and the dining room was attractively decorated with Old Glory. At the conclusion of the banquet A. E. Beclwith was dele gated to convey to the committee the thanks of those present.
 President Browning called the meet ing to order and spoke of the very bright prospects which were in store for the association, calling attention to the very good work which had been done by Secretary Brown of Derby and Secretary Lacey of Bridgeport, who have been aiding the local members in their canvass. The ministers of the city were thanked for their co-opera- tion and the use of their pulpits. The chairmen of the various teams were then called upon for their Friday re- ports which were as follows: II. w.

The Horse.

A statistician has figured it out that whereas there were almost half a mIl- lion horses in London a decade ago there are now not more than one hun dred thousand. It is deduced from this that the horse is losing his place in the world and that he will eventually disappear.
 City people have a habit of deciding questions from their own viewpoint without regard to what is going on elsewhere, New York is woefully igno- rant of the rest of the country Every horse might disappear from London and every horse from New York, yet this could not be taken to mean that the horse had lost his place in the world. As a matter of fact horses have never been more precious than they are now. They cost more than they ever did. at least, within recent years. Time was when a good horse could be bought for $60 or $75 but even the meanest plug cannot now be purchased for any such sum. Mules and horses cost money.
 It may be that the production tf horses in this country has decreased and that the high prices are the re- suit of this, but the proba bilities are that while the production is grea ter than ever before it has not kept pacc with the demand. We venture to say that there are more horses on farms today than there ever have been be- cause there is more farming and the advent of the steam blow and other mechanical machinery has not yet mad any general effevt.-Cflarleston News and Courier

Case reported $63o TOT me day and $2,190 for the week. This with the pledges which were made conditional upon the raising of the en- tire amount, makes a total for the week of s6,700.s0, given by 553 contri- butors.
 After cheers for the various mem bers of the teams who had worked so hard to attain this result. three times three were given for Secretary Morse, who responded in a heartfelt speech, stating that if a secretary could not win out with such loyal crowd or workers that he was not worthy or the place. He said that with such band anything could be done and that the results had proven the statement:
 Secretary Lacey of Bridgeport ana Secretary Merrill Brown of Derby. for merly the assistant of the local asso- citation, also made stirring speeches along the same lines, the latter stat ing that the victory in Norwich would give a stimulus to the work all ovec the state. He further said: We have received from the citizens of Nor wich the sum of $6,7OO. we must now return to them its equivalent in the upbulding of the manhood of the coni- munity."
 Speaking for the members of the clergy present Dr. Pratt said that the association was a union of all the churches in the city. and that all were working along the same lines. the making of better men and helping the community. The meeting was brought to a close by prayer offered by Wa terman R. Burnham.
 The following show the subscrip- tions day by day raised by each team, which, with the s1,000 conditionally pledged on the raising of s5,000, bring the grand total up to $6,700.80:

Illegal Election Expenditures.

The election practices law works smoothly but inexorajbly in England, as is newly illustrated by the unseat- ing of Sir Christopher F'urness, the distinguished shipbuilder, and Captain Frederick Guest, private secretary to MT. Winston Churchill at the home office. These victorious liberals ex- pended more money than the law all lows to acquire their seats; although bribery and corruption need not be inferred. Of course. the celerity of the laws operation is partly, if not chiefly, due to the circumstances that the court and not the commons disposes of cases arising under it. While the rule is ancient and practically univer- sal, that parliamentary body shall be the primary and exclusive judge of the qualifications of it's members, stat utes to control campaign methods threaten exceptions to the practice.
 The case of Mir. Havens. recently elected to fill a vacancy in the Thirty second congressional district of New York, is interesting as bearing on this The congressman -elect violated the state statute by failure to make re- turn of his election expenses by the required date. Hence it is asserted. on the one hand, that he is sitting H. legally. while the opposing claim is that. so long as the house of repre- sentatives does not unseat him, his credentials cannot now be recalled by state aarthority.-Providenc Journal.
