EVER SEE A BALDHEADED
WOMAN?

One noted authority says that there
are FIVE bald-headed women to every
four bald-headed men, and loss Of hair
among women is rapidly increasing.
This is the startling statement published
in one Of the standard magazines this
spring.
This would indeed be distressing news
for women were II not for the fact that
there Is one preparation that will surely
prevent loss Of hair from either man
or women.
Ladies', don't worry; this great author
ity may be right and may be- wrong.
Just put your faith IN PARTISAN
SAGE; It will keep for you all the hair
you have now and grow for you an
abundance of new hair.

Hair Dressing Hides

Nearly all Parisiennes wear their hair

ears and the small amount of front hair
that remains out must necessarily be

to partly cover the temple and ears; that
Is, all who think their ears not worth

are not going to hide them at any cost,
and they are right, for there is no part
of the body more delicate or charac-

the ears, and with a weIl-shapeJ large

Willard R6COrd
Joins in Frau

The Willard Record in it's issue
of yesterday took up the matter
Of the county printing. The
Record, like the Herald, tried to
put n a bid, when the commits
sioners had not called for bids.
But the Record unlike the Herald,
did not have q pull. The Record
accuses the News of having been
IN the ring We do not be-
leVe either the ring leaders,,
nor the News readers will agree
with the Record in this charge,
for il there has been one thing
which we have fought in Tor
rance county since before its or
ganlzatIon, it has been the ring"
Without having called for bids to
be opened at the January meet
ing, the commissioners could do
nothing but continue the old con-
tracts.
There is a neat little joke on
the Record, which is not known
by ali. After the burning of the
courthouse in July Of last year,
there was no official record as to
what The bid of the News was on
the printing of the commission
ers proceedings, until after the
records were restored. The Rec
ord, under the impression that
the News bid was forty per cent.
less than legal rate, and wanting
to underbid us, bid a discount of
forty-two per cent. But instead
of bidding two per cent. less, as
the Record thought, it had bid a
great deal lower. Isn't it easy
to underbid when you know the
other fellows bid, or think you
do? Especially if you are posi-
tive that 10 bids have been cali
led for and he won't bid. ,
The Record is mistaken. in
thinking we have discharged any
Of our employees on account of
any change in the county work.
Oar force is Just the same as it
has been, Come around and see
US Pedrick, and learn who we
are,
We agree with the Record that
the conditions are the same now
as they were at the time Of the
January meeting, and there are
no bids coming, and believe the
commissioners will have some
more resembling" to do, before
the matter is settled.
Now if the Moriarty, Mcintosh
and Mountainair papers will only
take z hand, we will have a warm
time before we get through.
Come on in, the waters fine.

Says O'Leary Of the Santa Fe Secret Service
on Account Of High Opinion in
which Kipnapper was Held

Secret Service, with headquar,
ters at Pueblo, Color d, and wh
has been busy recently in Ill
raveling the mystery of the kid
mapping Of Waldo Rogers in Las
Vegas, is in Albuquerque. H
has been receiving the congratu-
lations of his many friends here.
In speaking Of the case he de
clared that it was one of the most
difficult in his experience cover
ing a number Of years. Especial
ly was this true, because of the
high regard in which Will Rogers
was held by everyone in tn
Meadow City, When anyone was
approached who might have as
sisted in the case, the answer was
that the idea of his having any
thing to do with it, was preposte-
rous, absurd and not to be thought
of. If the detectives talked to
the brother or the sister-in law,
Will know everything that was
said, as he was always in touch
with them. He was suspected
from the very first, but the weav-
ing of the net Of evidence around
him was no small task because Of
the fact that he kept himself in
formed of every move Of the Of
fcer.
