WANTED SHEET FOR STROUD
He Intended to Do Much
Haunting Later.

Unluckily enough, the progressive
undertaken is often opposed by
numerous relatives and sometimes
even by the departed. One contrib
utor to the Southern Undertaken, for
example, tells how his plan to bury a
prospective client in clothes fit for
gentlemen" was knocked out by the
wish of that client, expressed shortly
before death, to be swathed In a COM
mon bed sheet. To proceed:
81 misunderstood him at first. l
thought he meant an ordinary white
shroud took it that he was simply
a little old-fashioned and wished to
revert to a primitive custom. But he
quickly corrected that impression.
az don't mean anything of the
kind he said. L want to be buried
In sheet-a plain, everyday white
sheet
For once my curiosity got the bet
ter of my good manners.
"T will do as you ask, Of course.
l said, but will you kindly tell me
why you want to be dressed IN that
peculiar style?'
"The old fellows answer fairly stag
fered me.
Because he said, I am going to
do good deal Of haunting when I'm
through with the flesh. I'm going to
take the sheet along with me, SO
therell be no delay In getting down
to business. Lots of people have
been playing me mean tricks al! their
lives. l have never been able to get
back at them In their present state,
but just wait till get clear Of these
letters! If l don't haunt them good
and hard and make them wish they'd
done the square thing by me 1t won't
be my fault. baltimore Sun.

MAKING OLD NEWS TIMELY
How Dr.. Charcot Used the Paris Pa
pers While Isolated In tho
Antarctic Ice.

Making old news seem timely was
one Of the diversions of DR.. Jean
Charcot, the French explorer, during
his two years of isolation in the Ant
arctic ice, where he did some wonder
full work in the scientific tabulation Of
tides and measurement of ocean
depths. He carried with him two
years files of the Paris newspapers
and on each day spread the papers Of
the corresponding day of the two pre-
ceding years on the table in the cabin
for the benefit OF his followers:
81 have recently turned out from a
locker" recorded DR.. Charcot In his
diary on July 7, midwinter, complete
files Of the Matin and the Figaro for
two years before our departure, kind
ly presented to US by their editors.
Every day put on the wardroom
table the numbers corresponding to
the present date, and personally
have never read the papers SO at
tentively or thoroughly.
"If | must confess 1t, the news, now
SO ancient, the scandals, the affairs,
interest me just as much as II l had
never heard Of them. l had forgotten
them nearly all, and I await the next
issue with Impotence. / am now
much better acquainted, with my coun.
try's politics and the worlds happen
ings In 1907 than I have ever been,
and probably than l shall ever be
again."-New York Evening Post.

The Flight Of Harry Atwood.

Nations are at times SO busy making
history that they have no time to write
it. Aviation is developing so rapidly
that unless you have the latest dis
patch in the last edition of some even
ing paper your information is antiquat-
cd and not up to date. Harry Atwood,
a Boston boy, sprang into fame in one
day, and within one short week be-
came the hero of all America. His
flight from Boston to Washington ar
rested the attention of the world. 1t
ended July l, covered PSI miles, and
was made in two days. The second
days stretch from New London to New
York was i22 miles in length, and
consumed but three hours and twenty
two minutes. But this achievement
has already been collapsed in every way
by his later flight from ST. Louis to
Chicago distance of 3l5 miles travel
ed by him between sos a. m. and 6:22
p. m. Not once during this trip, which
broke the American record for days
fight, did the machine fail or need re-
pairs. Express trains travel between
these two cities in eight hours, but
Atwood's time in the air was but seven
hours and thirty minutes. At tae time
Of this writing the proposed journey is
more than half completed, there has
been no accident of any kind, and the
aviator has carried part Of the time his
manager as passenger. On the sixth
day of his flight Atwood was at Erie,
miles from New York. To be sure,
the Boston boy is making history.

Ed. Kellner was called in as pinch
hitter again but all he had was a
chance to timber up his muscles by
swinging bat as his turn never came.
Staalsons wing was just as good as
ever although he hurt it slightly dur.
ing practice.
Kellnersville rooters outnumbered
the home bunch. Who said our fans
are not loyal to their team.
"Shorty" and @. Kellner were there
with the goods when it came down to

BALD HEADS NOT WANTED.
Badness Is Too Generally COnsid-
cred Sign Of Advanced Age.

A bald-headed person does not
have an equal chance with one
blessed with a healthy head of hair,
because badness is too generally ac-
cepted as an indication of age. Many
large corporations have established
an age limit, and refuse to take men
over 35 years of age as new employ
ees.
Probably 65 per cent of bald-head-
ed people may regain a good head of
healthy hair If they will follow our
advice and accept our offer. We have
remedy that we positively guaran-
tee to grow hair on any head, unless
the roots of the hair are entirely
dead, their follicles closed and the
scalp glazed and shiny. We want
people to try this remedy at our risk,
with the distinct understanding that
unless it does exactly what we claim
it will, and gives satisfaction in
every respect, we shall make no
charge for the remedy used during
the trial.
We know exactly what we are
talking about. and with this offer
back of our statements no one should
scOff, doubt our word, or hesitate to
put our remedy to an actual test.
We want every one in Salem
who is suffering from any scalp or
hair trouble, dandruff, falling hair. or
badness to try our Rexall "93" Hair
Tonic. We want them to use it reg
ularly-say until three bottles have
been used-and il it does not eradi-
cate dandruff, cleanse and refresh
the scalp, tighten the hair in its roots
and grow new hair, we will return
every cent paid us for the remedy for
the mere asking. There is no for
mality expected. and we exact no
obligation from the user whatever.
We are established right here in
Salem. and make this offer with a
full understanding that our business
success entirely depends upon the
sort Of treatment we accord our GUS
toners, and We would not dare make
the above offer unless we were posi-
lively certain that we could substan-
tiate 1t in every particular. Remem-
Der, you can obtain Rexall Remedies
