A Hopeful Message To Scalp Suf-
ferers And Men Who's Hair Is
Thinning.

Dandruff now-bald later. The same
Is true of scalp disease. In fact bald
ness Is a scalp disease. The trouble
with the greasy salves and lotions,
the so called dandruff and scalp cures
you have tried so far is that they
don't do anything but temporarily re-
lieve the itching and cake the dand-
ruff so 1t doesn't fall until its dried
out again. Nothing a ,cure--really
cure such troubles but a real scalp
medicine that will kill the germs
causing dandruff and scalp disease.
Learning from leading fellow drug
lists throughout America that they
had found a whirlwind cure for dand-
ruiz, eczema and all diseases of the
skin and scalp the CORNER Drug Store
on proving to the laboratories COM
pounding the treatment that it is the
most prominent drug store In this
city secured the agency for the remedy.
This remedy is ZEMO, the clean,
liquid preparation that kills the germ
Of disease and ZEMO SOAP to wash
the scalp or skin clear and clean of
the dandruff or scale and by Its anti
septic qualities soothe and heal.

No Gallinger in Theirs.

The Sioux City Journal says: An
other insurgent objection to Gallinger
may be that his name reminds one OF
Ballinger,' and the Journal Is wrong
again.
Jacob Gallinger Is one of the New
England railroad agents in the senate
and his chief qualification for the
s%enatorship is his willingness to serve
the corporations at any time. He has
no ability as an orator, no knowledge
of law, but he understands medicine
and knows how to prescribe for cor
pOration trouble. Jacob Is a Canadian
born and found a better opportunity
to serve the bosses in New Hampshire
than in the Dominion. He spoke in
Canton during the political battle of
1896 and was regarded as a very or
binary politician by those who heard
him. There Is no other man in the
senate who would so brazenly stand
for the interests as Gallinger, and the
trust boomers know he will do their
bidding and rule on all matters
against progressive legislation. Gal
linger is a fit representative of the In
terests that would rather wreck the
republican party than surrender their
right to rob the people, and Senator
La Toilette very properly denounced
those who claimed a republican sena-
tor should support a ucu nominee,
even If that nominee was a special
agent of the railroad combine.
There is too much Lorimer in the
senate, there are too many men there
who were elected by the interests and
are thus mere tools OF the powerful
combine that sent them to Washing
ton, as Lorimer expressed it in his
''bellweather" reference. United
States senators are made of the same
kind of clay as the poor devils who
elect them, and II senatorial ambition
is black in spots and tinged with graft
before election, one may look for a
few bubbles after such a man falls in
to the arms of the combine that need
his vote.
Senator Gallinger was neve worthy
of a seat In the upper house and as a
last resort to help block progressive
legislation the interests put him up
for president of the senate, a move
nothing short Of an insult to every
progressive In that body. The LEAD
ER is proud Of those men who refused
to support Gallinger and little use for
a mush head who surrenders his con-
victions to please the trust robbers.
