The fluky wind was responsible for the

AERoPLANE TELEGRAPHY.

The United States government is
conducting some very interesting and
important experiments looking To the

tween aeroplanes in the air and a
base on terra firma. A number Of
schemes are under trial. but as yet
not much headway has been made i'm
this general direction. Where the BIZ
plane is made use OF r. NJ. Horton has
devised a plan of making use of the
guy wires of the machine as substi-
tute for the usual antennae, while he
employees the motor OF the aeroplane
for a ground. The total weight is but
65 pounds, although a six-inch spark
coil is employed. The coil is fed by a
i2-volt storage battery OF so ampere
hours, weighing but 40 pounds The
guy wires are connected i'm series and
give a total length of about 500 feet.
The experiments already made with
this machine Indicate that Il Is entire

A GREAT DISCOVERY
Certain ingredients That Really Pro-
mote Hair Growth When
PrOperly Combined,

Rosorcin is one Of the most effective
germ destroyers ever discovered by
science, and in connection with Beta
Napthol, which is both germicidal ana
antiseptic a combination is formed
which destroys the germs which rob
the hair of it's natural nourishment,
and also creates a clean. healthy con-
dition Of the scalp which prevents the
development of new germs.
Pilocarpin, although not cOloring
matter or dye, is "A well-known ingre-
dent for restoring the hair to its ma
tural color, when the loss of hair has
been caused by a disease of the scalp.
These ingredients i'm proper combin-
alton, with alcohol added as a slim
ulant and for its well-defined nourish-
ment properties, perfect perhaps the
most effective remedy that is known
for scalp and hair troubles.
We have a remedy which is chiefly
composed of these ingredients, i'm COM
bination with other. extremely inval-
liable medicinal agents. We guarantee
it to positively cure dandruff and to
grow hair, even though the scalp in
spots is bare of hair. If there is any
vitality left in the roots, it will posi-
lively cure badness, or we will re-
fund your money. If the scalp has a
glazed, shiny appearance, it's an indi-
cation that badness is permanent, but
I'm other instances we believe badness
is durable.
We want every one troubled with
scalp disease or loss of hair To try
Rexall "93" Hair Tonic. If it does not
cure dandrun and grow hair to the
satisfaction of the user, we will with
out question or quibble return every
cent paid us for it. We print this
guarantee on every bottle. 1t has ef-
fected a positive cure in 93 per cent
of cases where put To practical test

BUILDS NEW CLIFF
AT NIAGARA GORGE.


"A rubble-stone cliff 200 feet high and
400 feet long so closely resembling the
natural rock formation that they can
hardly be told apart, has been built
on the American side of the gorge just
below Niagara Falls 1t represents
the first fruits of the work of the seem
ic committee appointed by President
Taft to cooperate with the power
companies in preserving the beauty
of the falls.
The made-to-order cliffs overtops by
thirty feet the highest rubble-stone
wall ever before built. Made of the
same rock that forms the natural sides
.of the gorge, it conceals completely
the pipes through which the water falls
from the brink of the precipce to the
turbines at the bottom.
President Taft appointed on the
committee both United states army
engineers and professional laymen. and
the first eyesore to which they turned
their attention was group of old
factories below the steel arch bridge
on the American side, painted i'm all
colors of the rainbow and presenting
an atrOcious skyline. Worse. the gorge
at this point had been used as "A
dumping ground by the village of Ma
CARA Falls and contractors: bed
springs, old mattresses, tree stumps,
broken barrels and heaps of ashes lay
strewn all the way from the top of the
embankmcnt to the water.
The power company nearest this
spot asked the committee To make sug-
gestions and plans for improvements
and offered TO carry them out. First
the company cleaned the gorge of the
debris and garbage that had been
dumped over the cliff and planted such
grasses and shrubs as had chance to
live there. II then bought out five of
the factories and replaced the walls
