'Hurrah for the Fourth Of Julyr'
There is one less bachelor in Congress;
or, rather, there will be this evening,
when Representative Asbury Francis Le-
yer, of Lexington. S. c., will have en-
barked on his first matrimonial venture.
Miss Lucille Butler. of Edgefeld, s. c.,
will be the bride, and the wedding will
take place this afternoon at her home.
Incidentally the majority Of Mr.. Lew
er's associates on his State delegation
will be greatly surprised at the news, for
Mr.. Lever, whose lonesome bachelor life
has brought gray hairs of worry to I'm
Gle Joe" Cannon for the last four years,
took few into his confidence when he left
here three days ago for Edgefield.
AS a matter of fact, he was not at all
sure himself as to the result Of his visit.
Miss Butler had promised to marry him
in the fall. Mr.. Lever left here deter
mined to convince her that there is no
time like the present, and no present like
the Fourth of July.
The announcement of the wedding
which bursts in on Washington for the
first time this morning, will prove a
striking tribute to Mr.. Levers eloquence
and persuasive powers.
A graduate at law OF Georgetown Uni
versity, Mr.. Lever is well known in
Washington. He came here first as pri-
vate secretary to the late Representative
]. William Stokes, to whose seat in the
Cogress he succeeded on
the death of Mr.. Stokes.
While here in his capacity as private
secretary, Mr.. Lever studied law at the
Georgetown University Law School, re-
ceiving his degree IN 1899. and being ad-
mitted to the bar that same year. He is
known as an able lawyer in his home

over a year ago, it has taken the world by
storm, and thousands Of men and women
are now living proofs Of its efficacy. II
has been found that almost every known
hair trouble will succumb to its influences,
and minor cases of scalp or hair diseases,
such as dandruff. falling hair, itching scalp.
etc. have been completely cured with two
or three applications.
It was reasonably argued that IL "Crys-

dressing 'Crystolis" is undoubtedly unex-

makes the hair soft and glossy, with a
tendency to fiuffiness.
Many of those who have used "Crystolis''
report most astonishing results. Mr.. A. H

checked at last by the discovery of remark
able drug which actually grows hair. No

a wig distress men and women who are
rapidly becoming bald, or who have already

tested In every way, and 1t has been found
that II will actually cover the human head
with hair. providing that the hair roots have
not been destroyed, in about 30 days. Its
properties are so remarkable that not only
does IL grow hair. but it also improves the
quality of the existing hair II II ts gray or
