Dandruff Means Early Badness.
Save Your Hair Now!

Dandrunf is a more dangerous dis
ease than most people think. 1t not
only hastens badness, but infects the
face, causing unsightly skin eruptions.
Furthermore. badness that results
from dandruff is hair gone forever.
No means yet discovered can coax the
hair roots to sprout and grow again.
Remove Dandruff. Stop Falling Hair.
Don't get bald. Use Red Rock-the
greatest. most effective hair tonic,
dandruff cure and shampoo ever
offered.
Not a dangerous drug. Not a soap
and water preparation. Not greasy,
smelly ointment Simply a new and
wonderful combination of secret In
gradients. Thousands have succeeded
with Red Rock Shampoo and Dandrun
Eradicator where ordinary "tonics"
were useless.
All you need do is to thoroughly wet
the scalp with Red Rock, rubbing IL
in we'll with the finger tips. After
wards rinse the heae In warm water
and rub dry. Do not use either soap
or brush.
Not only will you ave the expensive
services of a scalp specialist. but you
can apply the treatment at your con-
Venience No waiting to be next"
One treatment will by no means
cure well-developed case OF Dan
druff but immediate relief will be
evident. If Red Rock is used regularly
the hair and scalp viii always be in
a clean, healthy condition.

ELOPINU GIRL
WOREPA'SC CLOTHES
Her Garments Locked Up by
Suspicious Ma, Daughter
Finds Way to Escape
PARENTS MAY FORGIVE
WHEN PAIR GETS BACK

Donning her fathers clothing to es-
cape the watchful eyes of the mother,
who had locked up her clothing TO pre-
vent h~ elopement, Blanche " Potts,
the nineteen-year-old daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. John Potts, slipped from her
home, 1912 South Twenty-second ST.,
Philadelphia. early Saturday morn
ing, and came to Wilmington, where
she was married to George p. Milward,
of 1922 Morris street, the same city.
The young couple are now on a
honeymoon journeyed to Niagara Falls
and will return next week to their new
home, 1917 South THAN street, West
Philadelphia.
The elopement is the elimination of
romance that began nearly year
ago. Both residents of the southern
part of the city, the girl and young
man had many mutual friends, but
never met until last fall, when they
became acquainted at dance. IL
was the old story of love at first
sight, and the shortest route between
1922 Morris street and 1872 S. Twen-
ty-second street, soon became familiar
to Milward.
Miss Potts parents realized that
something was in the wind, and,
although not objecting to Milward
personally, they felt their daughter to
be "ower young to marry yet" and
put their feet down fiat at any talk OF
immediate marriage.
Underterred by this opposition, the
young people still saw each other.
Their courtship progressed TO the
point where Milward selected q home
for his bride-to-be. Milward arranged
much time choosing the readiness a
week ago, and Milward arraged to
to start on his vacation Saturday.
The daughters evident high spirits
caused the mother to believe that an
elopement was on the carpet, and she
accordingly watched Blanche like a
hawk. She even put her clothes under
lock and key. But love has always
found a way, and plans we're laid ac-
cordingly.
Mrs. Potts went down stairs early
Saturday morning to get breakfast,
! leaving her husband, and presumably
( her daughter still asleep. Needless
to say the latter was wide awake, and
seizing the opportunity afforded by
her fathers final nap. she stole into his
/ TOOTH anu got HIS suit AAblh q OhdiA o
Now Mr.. Potts is somewhat larger
than his daughter, but that only made
her dressing in the unaccustomed
garments easier. Then she boldl-r
and noisily stumped downstairs to
the front door. Mrs. Potts, hearing
what she believed to be her spouse's
familiar footsteps, scarcely looked up.
and I'm a twinkling Blanche was out
of the house and in the tonneau of a
waiting automobile. She had to stand
lot of good-natured jesting about
her costume while she was being
whirled to the home of one of hel
husbands relatives in West Philadel
phia.- Here she dressed in her brand
new wedding gown, which she hac
thoughtfully arranged to be sent there
for Just this emergency.
Then they took train for Whining
ton, and were married by the, Rev
DR.. Kliese.
Mr.. and Mrs. Potts are expected tC
be ready with the PARENTAL blessing
on the elopers' return. Their elder
daughter eloped and was married il
similar fashion several years ago.

money makes Rny more towards an
available playground in that section
improbable at this time.
About the price of the ground, there
Is much discussion and little differ
ences of opinion. In the writer's
judgement II is too high. The prop
critics will be under the supervision Of
the Park Board, and II is unfortunate
that the commission was not asked TO
have jury of condemnation appointed
and the land condemned. it would cer-
tainly have prevented an ugly situa-
ton. which will not be improved by
editor OF the Star calling names and
questioning the motives OF the large
and respectable number of citizens
who believe that the interests OF the
city were not properly considered IN
this deal, to say the best OF II.
The whole transaction, looked al
from any angle you may. is an unfort
unate one. and II anything can be sai'
in its defence. It has yet to transpire
Calling names is worse than sayinl
nothing. To talk about what the
ground would be worth If it we're in a
congested section of the city is an in
suit to the intelligence Of the COM
munity II we are going to have play
grounds, the people who pay for them
should certainly have something to
say Without questioning any ones
motives, the writer expresses the opin
ion that Councils finance committee
made a vital mistake in not taking
the people into his confidence, and In
showing such undue haste. What was
the necessity for purchasing at this
time2 Nothing can be done until the
loan talked about will be secured. The
lots will have to lay there unimproved
until the money is available. Leave
the price and availability out Of the
question altogether, and the entire
! transaction is an undefensible one.
In the writer's opinion. II there is
/ TO be a S250,O0O loan for Fairgrounds
purposes. and. II the same method in
purchasing grounds is to be pursued
as in this deal. if there is not to be a
full and free daylight discussion of
grounds TO be purchased then, their
location and dimensions and all about
them, the whole scheme had better
be abandoned altogether.

What is the Matter with Wilmington.

What Is the Matter with Wilmington.
Editor of the Evening Journal:
The census returns show that the
city OF Des Moines Iowa, increased In
population to the extent of 80 per cent.
I'm the last ten years. The figures for
1900 were 62139: for 1910, S6.368;
gain Of 24,129. What a poor showing
our city makes along side Of the first
named place.
Des Moines has a model charter.
Five men elected at large are in con-
troll of the city's business. Let me
quote from little booklet called
wealth" issued monthly by the
Greater DesAIoines Committee. "The
function of government is divided into
five parts, each commissioner being
head of one department. The Mayor
is the executive of the Department OF
Public Affairs, by virtue Of his office
The FIVE Departments are named as
follows:
Department Of Public Affairs, De-
partment Of Accounts and Finances,
Department OF Public Safety, Depart
ment Of Streets and Public Improve
ment Department of Parks and Public
Property.
The Initiative, the referendum and
the recall are combined with govern
ment by commission in the Des Moines
plan.
The recall is the most imnortant OF
these three provisions. While the
commissioners are elected for deli
mite term their tenure Of office may
be terminated at any time II the
voters choose to recall any one OF
them. Thus the council is always di-
rectly and Immediately responsible to
the people.
The DesMoines plan has now been
in operation two years. The first yeai
the plan saved the city $1Ss 600 and
gave the public increased efficiency"
If Wilmington had such charter
the writer believes we would have
made a greater gain in population dur
ing the last decade The city's credi
would not be in the doubtful column
amNig bankers. No shady deals fo
pleasure grounds would be possible
And what a joyful moment II woul'
be If we could see it announced in tn
daily -,papers that Wilmington ha
100000 to it's credit

COMMISSION FINDS
AGAINST RAILROADS

RALEIGH, n. c., Aug. 1.-THE
North Carolina corporation commits
sion, In a decision yesterday, declares
that railways have not provided a
proper union station here, and made
a sharp reply to the statement by a
Southern Railway official that rail-
ways are better qualified to express
opinion upon sufficiency Of accommo-
dations than any committee Of citi
gems, which does not have to provide
any of the funds necessary for erecting
and maintaining such buildings"
Control of railways" says the COM
mission, through legally constituted
bodies is no longer an open question.
and tha good citizens Of Raleigh were
we'll within their rights in appealing
to the commission for relief from an
imposition in the lack OF public facil-
ities. and we are not willing to admit
that all knowledge OF what these re-
quirements are should be concealed in
the breasts OF railway officials. who do
not always provide even what they
know and admit are public necessities
without gentle reminders from the
public"
