Test.
rake the best soap you can find. and
wash your hair and scalp with it so
thoroughly that you think they are
perfectly clean. Rinse the head well
and wash out all the lather. Then
give yourself another shampoo imme-
dlately with Birt's Head Wash. You
Will be astonished to see how much
more dust and dirt will be found.
The water will be so discolored that
you can hardly believe your own eyes.
Another test is to have your barber
give you a shampoo, and when you
get home, use Birt's Head Wash your
self. You will find that the barber
got out only a part of the dirt. This
is because ordinary soaps and sham
poos remove only the dirt that is ON
the hair and scalp, while Birt's Head
Wash goes IN and removes the dirt
that clogs up the pores. A BARRIERS
shampoo leaves the hair dry and brit
tie, and the scalp tight and uncom-
Portable. Birt's Head Wash leaves the
hair moist and glossy, while the scalp
is supple and delightfully."- agreeable.
You will never know the pleasure of
possessing a perfectly clean scalp and
soft, glossy hair until you use Birt's
Head Wash. Tubes 25c., jars SOC.

LAFE DID STUNTS.
augusta Mans Easerness to Catch
Car Brings Him a Ducking.

One of Augustus Well-knOwn citizens
who is known among his intimate
friends as .Lafe," and whose favorite
| rendezvous during his leisure moments
is Wallie Morse's store, is the victim
of a mishap, in fact two mishaps, and
both of the same nature. 1t all came
to pass Thursday, following a visit to
the Readfield fair
LATE, with many others from Au-
gusta, went out to enjoy the closing
days program of the fair, and in or
der that he might get all the pleasure
possible out of the trip, went to Ma
ranacook siding by trolly and then up
the lake by steamer. He came back
the same way but some of the details
which accompanied the return We're
not laid down in the program, and LATE
would have been just as well satisfied
if they had been left out.
The trip down the lake was thing
of pleasure-for the greater part of the
way. 1t was just before sunset and
near the close of a beautiful early au-
tumn day. Everyone knows how pref
tv Maranacook and it's shores look at
such times, and Late and the other
people on the steamer were enjoying
the beauties of nature to the fullest
extent
All were spellbound by the picture
before and around them and the spell
remained unbroken until as the steam
err approached the landing LATE caught
sight of trolley car coming from
Winthrop. That called him back to
earth and from that moment his sole
desire was to get seat on that car.
Fearing that the car might go by ne
arose in his seat and began waving
his hand, and SO intent was he IN
signaling that car that somehow ne
lost his balance and over he went mo
the lake.
This sudden change of base did not
discomfort him as the water was NOT
deem and he did not go all under, get
ting wet only up to his neck, SO ne
waded to the landing and started To
climb up the side. But there was
whore he met his Waterloo, for az
cording to the story which came l'lt'
town bv wireless he had nearly reach
cd the top of the wharf when ne loSt
his balance for the second time an"
fell backward into the water WIN d
smash that sent the ripples 1ar ou'
over the surface of the lake In spitc
of the difficulties he experienced III
landing. however, it should be san"
that he had the ultimate satlslac''o,
of catching the car, and TINS no doup'
offset in a measure the dlsagreeap'e
