How ! Made
My Hair Grow

/ was greatly troubled with dandruff
and falling hair. tried many adver-
tised hair preparations and various
prescriptions, but they all signally
failed; many Of them made my hair
greasy SO it was impossible to comb
it or do 1t up properly. / think that
many of the things tried were posi-
lively injurious and from ny own ex-
perience cannot too strongly caution
you against using preparations con-
tanning wood alcohol and other poison
Gus substances. / believe they injure
the roots of the hair. After my long
list of failures, / finally found a simple
prescription which / can unhesitating-
| ~ state is beyond doubt the most
wonderful thing for the hair have ever
seen. Many of my friends have also
used it, and obtained wonderful eff
fects therefrom. 1t not only is a
powerful stimulant to the growth of
the hair and for restoring gray hair
| to it's natural color, but 1t is equally
good for removing dandruff. giving
the hair life and briliancy, ETC., and
for the purpose Of keeping the scalp
In first-class condition. 1t also makes
the hair easier to comb and arrange in
nice form. I have a friend who used
| 1t two months and during that time 1T
| has not only stopped the falling of his
hair and wonderfully increased it's
growth, but 1t practically. restored all
OF his hair to its natural color. You
can obtain the ingredients for making
this wonderful preparation from all
most any druggist. The prescription
is as follows:
Bay Rum, o.: Menthol Crystals
IL drachm; Lavona de Composee, 2
hoz. If you like it perfumed add a few
drops of To-Kalon Perfume, which
mixes perfectly with the other ingred-
tents. This. however Is not necessary.
Be sure to ask the druggist for ali
the enclosures in the Iavona de Com
posee' package. One of them entities
you to a handsome free sprinkler top
for your hair tonic bottle and you are
also entitled to receive the free advice
OF an expert on the hair by simply
writing to the address you will find en-
closed in the carton.
Apply night and morning: rub thor
oughly into the scalp.
Go to your druggist and ask for an
eight ounce bottle containing six
ounces Of Bay Rum; also one-half
drachn Of Menthol Crystals. and a
two ounce bottle OF I4avona de Conn
posee' Mix the ingredients yourself
at your own home Add the Menthol
Crystals to the Bay Rum and then
pour in the I.avuna de Composer and
add the To Kalon Perfume. Let 1t

With the passage of one of the mea-
sures a new municipal office was Gre
ated. An ordinance providing for the
appointment of city gas and electric
meter inspector was passed. For a
long time it has been considered that
the need of such an officer in the city
has been felt The duties of the new
official will be to inspect all the gas
and electric meters in the city at GER
tain periods, for which compensation
shall be received at the rate OF 81 for
each meter examined. The inspector
has the power to have ordered remov-
ed any meter found not to be giving
the correct registration.
The ordinance providing Tor the
proper electrical wiring of theatres
in compliance with the regulations OF
the board of underwriters and the
licensing OF employment agencies, both
of which have been pending for some
time, were put upon their final read

in the latter whereby all employment
agencies IN the city should keep a rec.

state the prices offered and show the
contracts between themselves and
their clientele together with the full

Do YOU know the subdued music

varying arrangement, transport the
audience TO the mood of the player;
and when the curtain rises. to gay

life and animation, we are thrilled
and Immediately infected with the
spirit of ~joyousness. just as we re-
