AN oLD-TIME PRESCRIPTION

In modern product. From time imme,,
mortal sage aud sulphur have been used
for the hair and scalp. Almost every
one knows of the value of such a com
bnation for darkening the hair and max
ing it grow. In olden times the only way
to get hair tonic of this sort was to
brew it in the home fireplace, method
which was troublesome and not always
satisfactory. Nowadays almost every up
to-date druggist can supply his patrons
with a ready to use product, skillfully
compounded in perfectly equipped labora-
tories'- Such a preparation is Wyeth,s3
Sage and Sulphur, which is sold by all
leading druggists for SOC. and $1.OO a
bottle, or which is sent direct by the
Wyeth Chemical Company, IA Cortlandt
St, New York City, upon receipt Of price

A FACT PROVEN
Should Convince Even the Most Skep.
teal Of It's Truth.


II there Is the slightest doubt in the
minds Of any that Dandruff germs do
not exist, their belief Is compelled by
the fact that a rabbit innoculated with
the germs became bald in six weeks
time.
1t must be apparent to any person
therefore that the only prevention of
badness is the destruction of the
germ-which act is successfully ac-
complleshed in one hundred per cent
of cases by the application Of New
BROS Herpicide.
Dandruff is caused by the same
germ which causes baldnes and can
be prevented with the same remedy
Newbros Herplcide
Accept no substitute. Destroy the
cause you remove the effect"
Sold by leading druggists. Send 10
cents in stamps for sample to The

LEvEE CONSTRUCTION NOT EMER-
GENCY WORK.

1t had been heretofore held that
the building of levees or dikes along
the shores of the Mississippi River
in the lowland states was a work OF
emergency, because the yearly floods
were in the habit Of inundating large
extents of the lowlands, and as the
floods came from several different
main sources at different seasons,
and it was impossible to foresee
when food from the Ohio, or one
from the Rocky Mountains through
the Missouri, or another from the
Arkansas and Red River would be
due, the building of these embank-
mentsi, whether to replace one that
had caved into the river or to stop
creyasse was considered most ur-
gent.
Much, but by no means all the
levees, is done by the United States
Government, and it comes under
the requirements of the law that re-
stricts all labor in the government
service to eight hours by the same
force of men.
But some time ago H. F. Garbish,
contractor building leyees under
national control, worked his men
longer than eight hours, under the
claim that it was emergency work.
He was indicted for violation of the
eight-hour law, and was acquitted
in the United States Circuit Court
On the ground that the labor in
question was emergency work.
The Supreme Court of the United
States yerterday overruled the emer-
gency clause in the judgment of the
lower court and held that levees
must be constructed, as far as the
United States Government is con-
cerned, according to the require-
ments of the eight-hour law.
If, therefore, construction and
completion of a levee seems urgent
and pressing in the extreme, it will
necessitate the working of the men
in two or even three shifts, each
gang being on duty for eight hours,
with rest of sixteen. With three
such gangs to stop a crevasse the
men would not be overworked, and
and at the same strenuous labor
would go on as long as it should b
required.
However, the eight-hour law doe:
not apply to state levee work, but
only that done by the National Gov,
ernment.-Picayune.

The SANDER on the Board Of School d.
rectors Of concordia Parish.



To the New Orleans Picayune: Motto
ing the editorial in the I'D. of recent
issue in connection with the dismissal OF
the school to listen to the address Of State
Superintendent 7. H. Harris, / feel that
would be false to my trust did refrain
to answer same. 1t has been an invari-
able custom in the Parish of Concordia,
and especially so in the town of Vidalia,
whenever a man Of public prominence
in educational, agricultural or political
matters address the public to permit the
school children to attend, irrespective OF
the fact that they, or he, belonged to
this faction or the other.
Our schools were closed to attend the
Broussard meeting, to attend the Aswell
meeting, to attend the Michel meeting,
and, unless prevented by the I'D, will
be closed to attend the Hall meeting, and
it is an absolutely false impression which
the I'D. is trying to create when it says
that the school children were dismissed,
marshaled by their teachers to a political
mass meeting to swell the audience and
shout and hurrah for Michel and Harris.
Please note what say: 1t is absolutely
false.
The School Board of Concordia Parish
has never to my knowledge allowed POI
litical Discussions to enter into its pro-
ceedings, and to emphasize this l desire
to say that the superintendent is an As
well man and the balance of the board
is almost equally divided between the
three gubernatorial candidates. / now
ask OF every fair-minded, impartial citi-
zen of the State of Louisiana whether OF
not the comparison made. by the I'D.
between jefferson Parish, which parish
showered honors upon, as they claim, 8
convicted yiolator OF the law, or Concor.
dia Parish, which allowed its schoo
children to listen to men Of public note
In answer to the question: "If Jefferson
viii not brook this outrage, will Concor
dia do so2' l will say there is no com
parison to be made between the two oc
currences, and as far as Concordia il
concerned, no outrage has been perpe
trated, unless it is considered by thu
It'd. that allowing children to hear pub
lie discussions OF matters OF vital interes
to.the citizens Of Louisiana is an out
rage. In conclusion, viii state that TIN
citizens OF Concordis Parish, represented
by their School Board, are amply able Il
attend to their own business. Will th'
