The Columbia High School baseball
team was defeated by the c. NJ A.
cad cts Wednesday afternoon by
score of s to l. The High School
boys having defeated the cadets by a
god margin were confident of again
being able to turn the trick, but they
were disappointed. After weeks
hare practice they we're much i'm
pro Ted and ran away with the game.
Mlaor was again placed in the box
by the High School but was not near
Sd effective as in the previous con-
, test. The cadets started in on him
the first inning and made two runs,
anG after that apparently had no diff
flculty in hitting him, and at the end
Of the game had registered eight bin
gIes against his hurting.
On the other hand McGehee, who
pitched for the soldiers, was more eff
fective, the High School boys being
unable to solve his delivery at times
when hits would have counted to their
advantage. He allowed only three
hits and only one man managed to
cross the rubber and be credited with
ia score. He walked one man. Allen
AMI Hurt played star ball for G. nj.
A. This was Aliens first game and
he made fine record, fielding every
thing that came his way. Hurt play
ed center and accepted four chances,
one lire drive that he got off his
shoe tips. He also got two hits, each
for extra bases, sending men over the
plate Mills played good game be-
hind the bat.

run or two dropped flies and wild
throw McDaniels caught, fine

HELPFUL HINTS ON HAIR
HEALTH.
Scalp and Hair Troubles Generally
Caused by Carelessness.

Dandruff is contagious disease
caused by microbe which also pro-
duces badness Never use a comb or
brush belonging TO some one else.
No matter how cleanly the owner
may be, these articles may be infected
with microbes, which will infect your
scalp. 1t is far easier to catch hair
microbes than it is to get rid of them,
and single stroke of an infected
comb or brush may we'll lead to
badness. Never try on anybody
else's hat. Many a hat-band is
resting place for microbes.
If you happen to be troubled with
dandruff, itching scalp, falling hair,
or badness, we have a remedy which
we believe will completely relieve
these troubles. We are so sure of
this that we offer it to you with the
understanding that it will cost you
nothing for the trial if it does not
produce the results we claim This
remedy is called Rexall 1913" Hair
Tonic. We honestly believe it to be
the most scientific remedy for scalp
and hair troubles, and we know Of
nothing else that equals it for ef-
fectiveness, because OF the results it
has produced in thousands of cases.
Rexall "93" Hair Tonic is devised
to Danish dandruff, restore natural
color when its loss has been brought
about by disease, and make the hair
naturally silky soft and glossy. 1t
does this because it stimulates the
hair follicles destroys the germ mat
ter. and brings about a free. health
circulation of blood. which nourishes
the hair roots, causing them to tighten
and grow new hair We want every
body who has any trouble with hair
or scalp to know that we think that
Rcxall "93' Hair Tonic is the best
hair tonic and restorative in existence.
and no one should scott at or doubt
this statement until they have put
our claims to a fair test. with the un-
derstanding that they pay us nothing
for the remedy if it does not give full
and complete satisfaction in every
particular Two sizes, 50 cents and

Hard Fight on Wool
Expected In Senate

That a big fight over the wool tariff
is lust ahead in the Senate, is strongly
indicated. The probabilities are, the
Senate will become involved in a de-
bate over wool before the House does.
When the steel bill is reported out of
the Finance Committee, Senator Smoot
is expected to present wool bill as an
amendment to the steel bill.
The wool bill which the regular Re-
publicans are planning will make nomi-
nal reductions in duties on wool and
wool manufactures, but no reductions
such as will give the public relief
Senate progressive Republicans are
not going to accept the Smoot bill un-
less II is good deal lower than they
anticipate 1t will be. They will prepare
a bill of their own, based on their owr
Interpretation of the tariff board re-
port.
