Dandruff Means Badness.

Dandruff is caused by a germ-a vic
ious, persistent, tenacious germ-that up
to the discovery of one of the worlds
greatest scientists, was supposed to be
UNRELIABLE. That discovery is called
Partisan Sage, and w. III. Sheldon, the
druggist, guarantees it to kill dandrufl
germs, to remove all traces of dandruif,
to stop falling hair or itching scalp in
two weeks, or money back.
1t contains just enough of sage prop
erly combined with other ingredients to
make any womans or mans hair grow
luxuriantly. 1t makes every body's harsh,
lusterless hair change to soft, lustrous,
and beautiful hair. 80 cents a large
bottle at w. II. Sheldon's, try it.

PAsTEURIzED MILK IS GOOD
pr. Evans of Chicago Health Depart ment Lauds Practice and Says 1t
 Adds Nothing to MILK.

At a recent session of the Chicago city council the subject of providing means of supplying pure milk brought up a lively discussion pro and con pasteurized milk.
 Dr. Evans of the Chicago health de partment thus lauds the practice of pasteurization:
 'The only thing approximating per fectly produced milk is certified milk which Is sold at a prohibitive price. and is thus impossible for general use in such large city as Chicago.
 "Pasteurizing milk does not put anything into the milk that is not there Pasteurization is not the death dealing thing its opponents would have people believe.
 Those having most to do with the feeding of babies use pasteurized milk, and 1t does not tend to produce bow-legged, chicken-breasted children either
 '1n regard to the claim that the dis ease of Tickets is caused by pasteur- ized milk, there have been only 496 deaths from that source in fifteen years in Chicago, while during one summer month more than 1000 chill dren died of diseases produced by i'm pure milk

This is the milkman's problem: How can I produce the greatest amount of milk and butter at the least expense?"
 - Chief Josephine, bred and owned by the agricultural department of the University of Missouri at Columbia. has come nearer solving this problem than any other COW on earth.
 It costs 77 cents a day to keep Josephine and her daily production is worth more than $4
 Thus Josephine makes as much each day as the average mechanic
 She makes more each year than the average preacher, and almost as much as the average college professor
 Chief Josephine is now a little over eight years old and is of the Holstein breed, otherwise known as Frisian or Holland
 Of course, Josephine's diet is care fully and systematically looked after. She is fed alfalfa hay and corn silage for coarse feed and for grain she is given a mixture of corn, bran, linseed meal and cottonseed meal. The amount

Indians In Maine LeaIsIature.

There are two Indian representa- lives in the Maine legislature. who represent the Indians of that state. They are assigned seats in the rear of the chamber, but have no vote in the proceedings.
 They are selected by their tribes men because of their prominence, and their purpose in the legislature is to give the Indians side when various matters pertaining to their constit- uents' welfare are under discussion.
 These Indians have had recog- nized representatives for years. who are treated with courtesy and consid- eration by the other members, and in all matters affecting the Indians do much good. The two representatives in office at present are Lola Coly, who lives on Indian Island in Old town and represents the Penobscot tribe, and Lewy Mitchell, who repre- sents the Passamaquoddy trfbe.- From the Red Man.

ELEPHANT BALEzD BY MOUSE
Big fPsehydernn, About to TrampIe Keeper, FIees In Terror From
 Tiny Animal.

New York-Paul Truman, head keeper of animals at the Bronx zoo had a narrow escape from death when he entered the pen of the elephant Gunda to pare the corns of that in tractable beast Gunda objected and charged the keeper.
 Several attendants seized heavy forks to goad the beast, but Gunda was so far away from the bar netting that they could not reach him. Just as it seemed certain that Truman would be caught in the flashing trunk or trampled under the ponderous feet. he drew something from his coat pocket and threw it at Gunda The el- ephant gave trumpet of terror and, swinging around, raced to the farthest corner, standing there a-tremble. Thu man slipped past the big fellow and got through the gate to safety.
 When asked what it was he had thrown at the elephant with such sue cess, he replied:
 Nothing but a live mouse. I al ways take one with me when tackle that fellow, but this time the scheme came near not working. MT. Mouse had eaten a hole in the middle lining of my coat and came near not get ting my fingers on it in time. Some of these days that same trouble may cost me my life with Gunda."

CHICKS BORN IN INCUBATOR
New York Experlmenter for Eight Years Tells What He Has
 Learned.

A. s. Brian of Westchester county. New York. writes as follows about his experience with an incubator:
 In the past eight years I have op- erated several of the standard makes of incubators, of both hot water and hot air type. Taking 1t all together I have had equally as good success with the one type as with the other. have found the following points necessary to a good hatch of strong livable chicks.
 First, mature, vigorous breeding stock, properly cared for and fed.
 Second, the eggs saved for incuba- ton should be of regular shape, me dium size, good shell, clean and fresh. These should be kept until put in the incubator in cool room of even tenn perature, about 50 degrees. The soon CT they can be put in the machine the better.
 I always thoroughly clean and disin- feet the incubator before putting in the eggs, and make sure I have it properly regulated at 102 degrees. The oil used should be of a good grade to hold an even flame and not crust the wick or smoke. I do not turn the eggs till the beginning of the third day, the first week. keeping the temperature at 102 degrees and airing eggs only long enough to turn them; turn twice daily after second day.
 The second week run temperature at 103 degrees; turn twice daily and air five to ten minutes in room 50 to 50 degrees.
 The third week run at 104 degrees, turn eggs and air them three times daily, up to end of eighteenth day, Is to 30 minutes. After the eighteenth day keep the machine cloesd and an even temperature of 104 degrees in the egg chamber till chicks begin to hatch.
 While matching, If 1t runs up to 105 degrees it is all right, but do not let 1t get below 103 degrees. believe 1t is absolutely necessary that the eggs should be well aired from the twelfth to eighteenth day to hatch strong chicks.
 I have had better matches when the incubator was run in a cellar than WAC4 Ill a IOOA dDONC 6AOuAN- AO reason of this is even temperature and humidity of air in an underground room.
 The eggs should be tested on the eighth, twelfth and eighteenth days, and all infertile eggs and dead germs taken out. In turning eggs take tray out of machine and close the door of incubator. Don't try to turn the eggs just half over, but roll them gently with the palms of the hands, changing their positions on the tray, and change the tray, end for end i1 the machine Donst mink yph odghtsz to get 100 chicks from 100 eggs -see. If you get 75 per cent in good chicks from total of eggs set you are very fortunate.

Alfalfa Feed for Flock.

If your hens do not do well, try a small patch of alfalfa An acre will be enough for few colonies.
 It has been shown that alfalfa can be grown anywhere in the United States and by starting with small patch of it and gradually widening the area as you get time to lime and in- oculate the soil, you will soon have a good-sized field of 1t. It is excellent feed, both for hogs and poultry.
 Alfalfa meal is one of the best of winter feeds for chickens. The meal is semi-green in nature, besides con- taining a high percentage of lime and protein. Alfalfa meal will cost about as much as wheat bran, and 1t has about equal feeding value to bran, besides providing green stun for the hens in winter when grass is dead. Try some of the meal this winter and ar range to grow your own alfalfa for the hens and bees another year.

I believe that the American churches could unite to build a great hall in Paris, seating from 1000 to 2.OOo persons, put scholarly evan gelist speaking French and English at the head, and hold purely evangelistic meetings, not only Sundays. but on the evenings of weekdays am sure that sincere evangelist able to speak French could sweep Paris with the simple words of Jesus. which all are eager to hear"

MIDDLE AGE IS BEST
THAT REALLY IS THE HAPPIEsT
 TIME OF ONES LIFE.
Strength, Wisdom and Experience All ecomblne to Make 1t More Inter- esting Than Youth, With
 It's SeIfishness.

To be middle-aged is to be despised. All young creatures wonder what we have to live for. Poets and novelists are agreed in contemning or ignoring us. Youth is wonderful and beauti- full, and old age has its mild wisdom; but middle age is a desert that no one cares to explore. French novel, lsts will take an interest in women up to 40 if they are sufficiently care ful of their appearance and sufficient ly careless in their morals. After that, poufl val And I do not see that English novelists greatly differ in this particular. Mrs. Oliphant alone has at- tempted to create interest in the wom- an of middle age, but only to con- miserate her innumerable cares and anxieties or to depict her sentimental jealousy of the blossoming time of a young girl.
 Youth, with all its reputation for joy and interest, is really usually full of sorrow and boredom. When we are young we expect so much of life, we are absolutely wrapped up in our selves, so completely selfish in our tNSNAo VI AoPPAnCOS, ludl Ill6 QlScP- pointments and disenchantments are always correspongingly bitter and deep. You expect everything-y get perhaps little, perhaps nothing, of what you expected. The world does not hasten to bring joy and interest and love to your feet, and you lie town to weep and despair, and cry that the times are out of joint. Youth very seldom remembers that it has to do he giving itself. It expects every thing and gives nothing, and it is therefore constantly unhappy.
 Middle-aged people are, or should be, still strong and full of life; and Ill the energy that used to go into dancing and chasing balls begins to De used for something outside them selves; it may be for an idea, 1t may be for persons, or for the community at large. Women have an immense fund of energy, which, If switched of themselves, where 1t may do mischief, makes them tireless and invaluable workers. What man will do consci- cautiously, for duty's sake, a woman will do for the sheer pleasure of it.
 Middle age, in short, has found out that the blue bird was at home all the while; that the effort to be of use to others in every day life is what brings happiness. The effort to reach hap piness through being amused, excited. loved, through. power. through sue cess, is essentially the effort of youth When people have learned to take a back seat. to love other people, and to work for them. they are happy and middle aged!

MERCHANT IS BURGLAR
REMARKA5LE DUAL EXISTENCE OF CINCINNATI BUSINESS MAN.
Anthony eahI Wanted to Be Rich, Like His Brothers, and Selected Life of Thief to Accomplish
 Purpose.

Cincinnati.=Anthony Gahl, a promi- nent business man of this city, was given a four years jail sentence, after confessing to the authorities that he was the duplicate key thief" so bad ly wanted there. He said:
 Thank God, 1t is all over, my mind is at rest and I feel better. I could not sleep, neither could I rest by day. My mind was burdened, my head ached and I lived the tortures of a man whose once clear conscience is not yet dulled by the seamy side of life. I wanted to get very rich, like my two brothers, but I failed. The profit from my stealing was nothing. Here I am, a disgrace to myself and to my brothers, both of whom are honored men in this community"
 He made a full confession to Chief of Police Jackson, and said he com mitted twenty or thirty thefts in Gin cinnati and disposed of the goods another man.
 q came from the west in Decem- Der, 1909" said Gahl. T had a store in San Francisco, but the earthquake came and I lost it. I then became a wanderer and found myself here. found my two brothers rich. One brother and I are not on good terms. I opened a store in Fifteenth street and kept it a month. Then moved across the street, and have had that three months. Yes, 1t paid me well, but wanted more money-lots of money.
 Money was my craving. saw how we'll my brothers lived. They had things that could not have. Why not steal? I thought 1t over and in October I decided to get rich by theft. I first bought a lot of different keys from different places and then went out. I do not remember my first job, but do know that I was badly scared.
 Do not take me for a hardened criminal, for am not I am simply a derelict who listened to the call of money. I found 1t easy to get into houses. I have found keys hidden under mats and in other places. Every little sound in house in which was stealing scared me. My nerves were on edge all the time It was fright ful. The fear of arrest was always with me- I am a single man and am glad that no wife or family will be compelled to suffer disgrace with me-"
