London.-If you would have a good
crop OF hair-go to the Polar regions.
Extreme cold. II appears. is one Of
the remedies for Strengthening hair.
Sir Ernest Shackleton. the Antarc.

All Of the men who went with me
on the South Pole expedition, with
one or two exceptions. possessed
stronger crops OF hair on their return
to civilization"
Extreme cold strengthens ones
hair.
AS our party approached nearer
the South Pole our hair grew more
slowly. but became thicker and
stronger"
A well-known London doctor said
that one reason why ones hair would
grow quicker In the Antarctic was
the total absence of germs and other
impurities which abound in all civil.

Danville. Ill.-Judge Kimbrough In
the circuit court handed down a de.
cision In the case OF City Attorney
Jones. who declined to answer certain
questions regarding vote selling and
buying which the grand jury put to
him.
The court instructed Jones to an
swer all questions. The opinion stated
that. according to a decision OF the
Supreme court OF the United States,
q witness before the grand jury Is
immune from indictment. The court
also held that the city election law is
unconstitutional. which means that
Jones cannot be questioned about hap
penings more than eighteen months
ago.
This means that the investigation
will continue until all the witnesses
now summoned are examined. II Is
said that many indictments have been
voted, but whether they are for vote
selling is not known.
