Whether more men or more women
look in show windows is an unsettled
question, for there are windows that at

Charming Hair
Every Woman Can Have it BY Using
Partisan Sage, Guaranteed by
Hannah Bros.

There is a reason for the phenome-
nal sale OF Partisan Sage in the United
States since it was first introduced
into America, and the sales this year
are breaking all records.
And the reason is plain to all: Pa
risian Sage does just what it is adver-
tised to do.
Ask Hannah Bros. about it. They
will tell you that they rigidly guar
antee it to cure. dandruff, stop falling
hair or itching scalp in two weeks,
or money back.
There is no reason whatever why
any man or woman should fail to take
advantage Of the above generous offer.
But one thing that has made Paris
ian Sage so famous Is it's peculiar
power to turn the harsh, unattractive
hair that many women possess into
luxuriant and radiant hair in a short
time. Women of refinement the
country over are using it and it never
disappoints.

OF a faithful spokesman for the peo-
pie, staunch representative OF their
rights and fearless foe to public
evils. 1t is the firm belief of many,

and politicians in Florida. that John

long study of public affairs, his long
acquaintance with conditions in Flor
Ida. his punctilious ideas Of conduct
IN Official position, better qualified
than any man in the race for the po-
sltlon OF Senator, and regardless OF
faction and former affiliations they
have determined to cast their votes
for him. John Stockton entered this
race and approaches the high posi-
ton he seeks with dignity that is
born Of just comprehension OF its
duties and responsibilities. He has
been conducting thorough speech
making tour. Everywhere he has
been received with warmth and some
times with enthusiasm. His meetings
have been far more spontaneous than
his competitors have been able to
arouse. There is a feeling that the
occasion and the man have met in this
instance; that the sober and sincere
Judgment of the people is being exer'
cised in the choice; that beneath
the calm, if not somewhat Indifferent
exterior, there is the leaven of justice
and common sense at work, and that
John Stockton will be the choice OF
majority in the forthcoming pri-
maries. Mr.. Stockton will speak in
Miami December 3Oth. 1t is planned

from the same platform in behalf OF

pleasing sight to see the old horses OF
Florida Democracy stand side by side
and for once in their lives agree upon
single proposition. They are agreed
this time, and the question that
brought them together was that John
Stockton should be the next United
States Senator from F1orida.-Miami

Carrying Water
On Both Shoulders.

For many years, the esteemed Ocala

who has three times been the stand
lard bearer Of the. party and whose
policies have not only been adopted
by all of the party, both east and west,
but have also been adopted by the
Largest and most active wing of the
gepubhcan party.
7 For some purpose the Banner some
time ago joined Mr. Bryan's detractors
and in a recent issue it reprints a
5screed from the New York World.
The Banner says:
II seems to us that the New York
World Is giving some good advice to
AIR. Bryan. and if he will act on the
Worlds mild suggestions that 1t will
largely help to solidify and strengthen
the Democratic party. The World
closes a recent article as follows:
The Worlds disinterested advice to
u.
gressiye democracy and give all the
moral support within his power to the
new leaders. He had his chance-he
had three chances-and each time the
country repudiated him. Even If Mr..
Bryan were the soundest and sanest
of political economists, which he Is
not. he is so politically discredited
that the hope of the party can lie only
in new leadership
OF course Editor Harris of the Ban
ner knows that the-New York World
has often times not been the true
friend of the Democratic party and
has never at any time in its career,
since it's Austrian publisher got con-
troll of it, been a friend of the south.
1t has lost few opportunities TO de-
fame this section of the country and
II. in its subserviency to Wall street,
it sees fit to detract from the fame
Mr. Bryan has achieved, 1t does not
appear consistent for a newspaper
publ shed in this part OF the country
to copy and approve Of it.
MIR. Bryan has not been discredited.
On the other hand he has seen his
personal following grow larger every
year and he has lived to see not only
his own party, but the largest branch
of the opposition party take up and en-.
dorse the majority of policies he has
advocated.
This to Us looks like a wonderful

We do not wish the Banner or any.
one else to misunderstood us. Mr.
Bryan is not our candidate for presi
dent in 1912 We doubt if he IS at the
present being considered by any
Democratic leader and We are sure
that he does not consider himself a
candidate. He has bigger and
broader field to work in just now and
he is always sure to be working for
the nominee, unless the nominee
should happen to be man antagonis'
tic to the platform, run in by corrup:
interest, as was the case with the
nominee for governor of Nebraska
who met the fate he and his sup
porters deserved.
=, Nominal Democrats should see that
their own policies and principles are
in harmony with the progressive
spirit of the party and leave Mr.
Bryan altogether alone.
