The Owl Drug Store Sells the Remedy
That is Guaranteed to Kill all
Dandruff Germs.

OF course you and every intelligent
reader of The News knows that dan
drux is caused by a germ.
DR.. Sagerbund, the great French
physician, proved this beyond doubt
In order to rid your scalp of filthy
dandruff you must kill the germ.
There is a hair dressing called Paris
ian Sage which is now sold in every
town in America, that is guaranteed
to eradicate dandruff stop falling
hair, splitting hair and scalp itch in
two weeks, or money back.
If you have dandruff, get a large
so cent bottle today and rid yourself
of it. Remember that if dandruff
germs are not destroyed in time, the
hair will surely fall out and badness
will follow.
Here's proof of what Partisan Sage
has done; it will do more. 1t is the
finest hair grower and hair dressing
in the world, and the people who use
1t regularly will never grow bald.
Mrs. John Stoner, Evansville. Ind.

Used to wait
There with Her
At the Morning Gate
In the old, old days
OF the glow and CLEAN,
Of love and light
And a summers dream
| wonder if ever
She cares to know
That over the years
Which have vanished so,
Some one still turns
From a lonesome night
To a rose-red dream
In a land of light
That one still looks
To the tryst of old
BY the rose-rimmed gate
And the path of gold?
! l wonder if ever
Across the years
AS the long day wanes
And the gray dusk nears-
AS in a CLINT
From a purple sea
The star dust drifts
Through the maple tree ..
/ wonder if ever
She thinks again
OF a dream that was
Or-mght have been?
When the world was sweet
At the dream-day's close
With the drift of bloom
And the breath of rose?
Do dead dreams rise
At the dusk for her
And call again
OF the days that were?

the contest ran in such highly respect able places as, for instance, the old cath edral city of Gloucester, where the mod ern intelligence of the Tower classes (sic) sticks it's elbows into the rigid pro- priety of "clergy, nobility and gentry"

it-by moro radical measure of reform than that proposed by Asquith. My own reading of MT. Balfour's character leads me to think that he is just as capable of q ''vote face as the famous protagonst of imperialism. Hence even unionist majority will hardly save the House of Lords, who will have to give way and become some modernzed sort of senate. As they stand, they boost a conservative or unionist government, and consistently
 When they have gone through the fires of chastening reform, they will be at least equally divided between the two parties. But before that day, they must have their present power of veto shorn away. How will 1t be shorn? By using the present forms, adding numbers of radicals to the Upper House and employ ing the so inflated body to consent to its own evisceration? Make 1t fat on pur- pose to compel a stupendous instance of hara-kiri? Or will the royal authority be applied? Perhaps the most interesting element of the dispute is that added by MT. Balfour under the pretence of a referendum To most people the referen- dunn signifies the most advanced sort of socialistic method It Is, of course, de- vice for the people to become their own legislators, overlapping the old represen- tative methods. For years the Swiss have

The Colonel went out to Ossa- watomie to eulogize John Brown. who would have put the knife to the threats of 6,0o0,000 whites, mostly women and chill dren, and the torch to their roofs, to free single negro slave. But the Colonel didn't "eulogize'' that old lunatic much. be that he was looking for southern del- egates and southern votes in 1912? Per haps John s. Wise might be able to help in Virginia
 But the Colonel is a politician of all colors.

fought by MT. Asquith and his lieuten- ants within a single year, apparently on the same issue as before. Why should he not have gone on and reformed the House of Lords, or abolished it, with the authority bestowed in February? Did he not talk of refusing office unless pro- tected by guarantees that the enactments of the House of Commons would become the law of the land?
 To this the answer is, Mo- The former election was preliminary. If defeated the claim of the Upper House to veto a par ticular type of bill. It put the people on record as determined to keep in their own hands, through the House of Com mons, the whole right of taxation It reduced the power of the peers so far that as class they could no longer claim to decide what taxation should fall on them, the class representative of wealth. It recognized that logically House of Peers could claim no more alright of vetoing measures of taxation than House of Paupers or House of Laborers. But this logic had less to do with their defeat than the fact that their preposterous claim was an encroachment upon well-established usage. For your British constitution lives by precedent, eats and drinks precedent sleeps on pre- cedent and uses precedent suspenders for it's voluminous pantaloons.

employed it, with some success, and there is tendency among American cities to overcome the political boss by the referendum.
 Now when Mir. Balfour adopts the cry for this panacea in Britain's present pain, does he mean to suggest that the
 intricate affairs of vast empire should be handled directly by the inexpert pas sions of the whole nation? Nothing more crazy could be imagined, and we may be sure that the suave and subtle Scotch man has no such purpose. The measure which he has adopted was begotten in the editorial offices of the London Spec tator once a great liberal newspaper, now a unionist. It is a measure mis- called referendum because purely re- vival of the privileges of the peers in a new form. It is the proposal, not to give the people the initiative, but to give to the unreformed or partially reformed House of Lords the right to demand that any important act of the House of Commons. should be referrel to the whole nation in a general election. Do We catch the inwardness of this sublime impudence? MT. Balfour sees that the sands are run out in the hour glass, and he smilingly proposes to set the same machine up the other way, and call 1t referendum. He would still further en-

Y Ess than a year ago the present
 \ premier of Great Britain appealed
 from the House of Lords to the people on the question whether that house should be permitted to veto money bill" MT. Asquith was sustained by the ssassypfe though the tremendous power of patronage was used in thousand ways against him. It was the patronage of the landho1der pressing upon every tenant in every little agricultural village; the pat ronage of the rural gentry (sic) press ing upon every tradesman in village and market town; the patronage of the rich middle classes, other than those whose money has been made in industries, press ing upon every man 1t could reach by trade or influence; the patronage of the huge liquor interests of the country, pressing upon the thoughtless. Never was a fiercer passion reused in English political development, and we could not have been surprised if toryism had won the day. But 1t did not win. That is the remarkable fact. England has become too soundly democratic, too deeply satu- rated with the class consciousness of the tolers, too thoroughly convinced of the necessity of meeting the criticisms of the socialists with measures of real reform, with relief of the poor by justice instead of by pauperising neglect.

 The power to interest one deeply in the sayings and doing of very ordinary and commonplace people, I take to be the mark of genius of d high order; and this power George Eliot possessed in a very extraordinary degree. Tom Tulliver was stupid at his books. and yet his career at the school of MT. Stellings is depicted with such sympathy as deeply to interest the profoundest scholar. Maggie Tuliver was bright, and Aunt Glegg had some stray gleams of intellect; but, with these exceptions, the whole Dodson crew were rather phenomenal in their stupidity, and the Tullivers were cen crows of the same nest; and yet they are all made inter- esting to almost every type of reader.
