Badness Is Too Generally Consider
ed Sign of Advanced Age.
A bald-headed person does not
have an equal chance with one bless
ed with a healthy head of hair, be-
cause badness is too generally &C
copied IS an indication of age. Many
large corporations have established
an age limit and refuse to take men
over 35 years of age as new en-
ployees.
Probably 65 per cent of bald
headed people may regain a good
head of healthy hair if they will fill
low our advice and accept our offer.
We have a remedy that we positively
guarantee to grow hair on any head
unless the roots of the hair are en-
tireIy dead, their follicIes closed and
the scalp has become glazed and
shiny. We want people to try this
remedy at our risk, with the distinct
understanding that unless it does
exactly what we claim it will, and
gives satisfaction in every respect,
we shall make no charge for the
remedy used during the trial.
We know exactly what we are
talking about, and with this offer
back of our statements no one
should scott, doubt our word or hes
itate to put our remedy to an actual
test.

| is suffering from any scalp or hair
trouble, dandruff, falling hair or
badness to try our Rexall "93" Hair

the asking. There is no formality

IARMONS RECORD FOR ECONOMY
Some of The Reforms He
Has Accomplished for the
People of His State.

At a time in 1910 when everybody
began to feel the pinch of the high
cost of living Governor Harmon
wrote a letter to the heads of the
Ohio Institutions urging the utmost
economy consistent with good gov
eminent In part the letter read:
THE people of Ohio have never been
disposed to be niggardly with the in
stitutions they maintain. On the
contrary they have always wished
the inmates and pupils therein to
have every reasonable provision, but
there is no reason why these should
be better provided for than citizens
are generally able to provide for
themselves. 1t is only just and fair
that when the people are compelled
to economic and many of them deny
themselves and their families the
officers, inmates and pupils of pub
lie institutions should do likewise.
Meanwhile you and the various Off
GERS and employees of your institu-
ton are directed at once to scruti-
niZe with care the selection, pur-
chase and use of all supplies with a
view of the stricteSt economy. And
economy means just the same in a
public institution as in private
household-going without expensive
things, or using less of them or
cheaper substitutes. Then people of
the state, whom we all serve, cannot
reproach us with the lack of practi
cal sympathy which is their due in
return for their noble public charity
which, even among the hardships
which beset them, they are willing
appropriately to maintain"
DR.. L. G. Taylor of Hartford,
Conn.,, writing about Governor Har-
mon, said: ''The reason l believe in
Mr.. Harmon is not because he is a
lawyer, but because he has had a
business training and has shown his
ability to put the right man in the
right place-which is one of the
most important qualities necessary
in an executives life. The lack of
the above executive quality is what
has made SO many failures by men
who have only had law education,
REINFORCED by small politics. Study
carefully each administration and it
becomes more apparent that the ex-
ecutive mind makes for the good of
humanity more than the judicial"

Dandruff and Itching Scalp Yield to
ZemO Treatment.

Why should you continue to ex-
pertinent with salves, greasy lotions
and fancy hair dressings trying to
rid your scalp of germ life? They
can't do it because they cannot pen
citrate to the seat of the trouble and
draw the germ life to the surface of
the scalp and destroy it.
Why not try a proven remedy?
One that will do this. We have a
remedy that will rid the scalp of
germ life and in this way will cure
DANDRUFF and ITCHING SCALP.
This remedy is ZEMO, a clean, re-
fined penetrating scalp tonic that
goes right to the seat of the trouble
and drives the germ life to the sur
face and destroys it.
A shampoo with ZEMO (ANTI-
SFPTIC) SOAP and one application

1T DOES NOT AID PELLAGRA
Scientists Declare That the Cotton
Oil Theory Is Absurd. Have
Studied the Subject.

WASHINGTON.-Cotton seed oil
manufacturers are gathering evil
dence and statistics to refute the
DRY that cotton seed oil might be one
of the many suspected contributing
causes to peIlagra. Assistant Sur
geon General Long of the public
health service in a public address re-
Gently mentioned the names of some
Investigators who were inclined to
that belief.
Passed Assistant Surgeon LAWN
der, writing in one of the recent pub
lie health bulletins, says the theory
is all out of harmony with the facts
and history of pellagra. DR.. Charles
c. Bass of Tulane University at New
Orleans also ridicules the idea. DR..
George A. Zeller of the Illinois State
Hospital at Peoria has studied the
theory and pronounced it absurd. All
three scientists are recognized stu
dents of the subject.
The cotton oil makers point to the
fact that the theory is in no way sup
ported in any government publica-
ton representing the official investi-
cations which the public health ser
vice is constantly conducting in the
South.

WHEN WILSON BIFFED BRYAN
Now That Letter Comes Home to
Worry the New Jersey Governor
Who Hankers for Presidency.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Presiden-
tial politics completely overshadows
every other topic among the mem
bers of the national committee.
The foremost theme of discussion
is the letter which was written by
Woodrow Wilson to Adrian M. Joline
of New York city in 1905, and which
was given out yesterday. In this
Wilson said:
Cannot we devise some dignifed
way of getting Mr. Bryan out of the
democratic party and getting rid of
him for all timer"
The question on every tongue is
how this letter will affect the Wilson
boom, and whether it will turn Bry-
an against Wilson.
The Wilson men belittle it and
say Bryan has long known of the
existence of such letter.

WANT BETTER BABIES.

Women's Clubs Send DIR. Margaret
Clark to Europe to Study How.
Fully determined to learn how to
develop more perfect babies the club
women of Iowa will send DIR. Marga-
ret Vaupel Clark of Waterloo to Eu-
rope for years study of the subject.
Dr. Clark will put in IL months
study at medical centers of the con-
tinent.
DR.. Clark's mission is a part of
the campaign of Iowa women to in
crease the general physical welfare
of the people of Iowa. Although the
winning infant in a statewide baby
show last summer scored 96h per
cent out of a possible 100, winning
over several rivals by a narrow mar
gin, the Iowa Federation of Women's
Clubs is not entirely satisfied with
the showing.
Mothers will be given instruction
in the proper care of babies. Prizes
will be awarded in contests for the
most perfect baby in each district,
and after that big state contest will
be-held, at which the winners of each
district show will be entered.

Government Secret Service Rounds

Government Secret Service Rounds
Up 40 Counterfeiters.
The annual report of John E. Will
kie, chief of the government Sc
cret service, shows that 410 count
erfeiters were rounded up in various
parts of the country in 1911, of
which 21S have been convicted. The
others are yet to be tried.
One Of the most notable arrests of
the year was that of Harry Porter,
the famous Denver Dollar Man. .
1t took nearly four years to run him
to bay.
Perhaps the most interesting feat
ure of the report of Chief Wilkie is
his statistics on the nationality of
counterfeiters. OF the Ais crooks
his record shows that PSI were ma
tive Americans. Italy held second
place with rs. Russia and Austria
Hungary came next with 13 each,
and Germany and Poland followed
with three apiece, Canada had two,
and Ireland England, Scotland Bo-
hemia and France each had one.

WHAT FII1PINos DO NOT DO.
They Don't Hobble, Lace, Ride in
Taxis Nor Worry.

Filipinos are not a tight-lacing
people, don't hobble when they walk
and aren't asking for anyone's pity,
according to William F. Pack, gov
ernor of the mountain province of
the Philippine Islands. Mr.. Pack
has been visiting relatives at Cen
treville, Mich.
Nobody need pity the poor in
habitants of the Philippines" he
said. pity, like charity, ought to
begin at home, for pity for savages
will be wasted The Filipinos are
neither a worrying nor a tight-lac-
ing people, and when they walk they
walk. They don't hobble. 1t isn't
fashionable to hobble out there.
They don't ride in taxis, because
they haven't any, and going to the
opera is thing unheard of, Their
vices aren't refined vices, and their
faults are not excused because they
are the faults of a fashionable set. y

Freight Service Tests for p. r.. RS
Biggest ENGINE.

Biggest Engine.
One of the largest locomotives in
the world has just been built for the
Pennsylvania railroad. 1t will be
tried out in freight service on steep
grades of the mountains in western
Pennsylvania, and if it proves salts
factory this type, known as the III
HI, may be adopted.
The new engine is longer than the
Pennsylvania s new all steel coaches.
From the point of the pilot to the
pulling face of the coupler on the
rear of the tender the distance is
ninety-eight feet three and three
quarter inches. The weight of the
engine in working order and the
tender loaded is 668,9O0 pounds.
This is 238,000 pounds heavier than
the class "K-2," the heaviest passen-
ger engine, and 272,600 pounds
heavier than the class "H-S-b," the
heaviest freight engine which the
Pennsylvania is now using. 1t is
644,275 pounds heavier than the
John Bull, the Pennsylvania oldest
locomotive.
There are four cylinders, each hav-
ing a diameter of twenty-seyen inch
es and stroke of twenty-eight inch
es. Each of the sixteen driving
wheels is fifty-six inches in diamet-
ter. The steam pressure is 100
pounds, and the total heating sur

gallons Of water and 10000 pounds

WYOMING
TRIES TO STEAL
PLATT RIVER

NORTH PLATTE, Neb. Oct 1s.---
wyoming is trying TO steal S5o,000,-
600 river from Nebraska. lt is the
biggest river between the Missouri
and the Pacific coast and upon its
waters depend the prosperity Of the
entire western end of Nebraska.
Wyoming is not simply after title to
tue river, but intends actually 20 take
the water from between the banks
and leave a dry watercourse extend-
ing three-quarters OF the way across
this entire State.
Governor Aldrich OF Nebraska. the
confederated commercial clubs Of the
State Union Pacific Railroad. and
various other commercial bodies have
joined in an effort to stop the theft
and representatives have been rush
ed on to Washington to interest the
Federal government IN behalf Of the
present owners of the stream.
The river which is in such danger
is the North Platte. OF the North
and South Platte rivers, which COM
bine at this point. the northern
branch brings three or four times as
much water 10 the confluence. With
the North Platte diverted to other
uses. the present plate river from
the western end Of the state to
Plattsmouth on the Missouri, will be
a dry track Of sand.
Wyoming claims that that state Is
IN the right in the action, which II is
taking. and points to the fact that ~
is remaining strictly within the law
while taking possession of the water.
And there is no denying that fact,
either But Nebraska, seeing It's
greatest stream about to be transfer
red TO lis western neighhor, is rails
ing all sorts of a row.
North Platte river takes is rise IN
Wyoming and for several hundred
miles flows through that State. AS a
TACT, most of its water comes from
the numerous streams which pour
down Wyoming mountains and find
their way into tho North Platte be-
fore II enters Nebraska.
But the United States government
laws give the waters of interstate
streams to those settlers who apply
FIRST and who will put the water TO
use Nebraska was settled before
Wyoming and naturally the farmers
along with North Platte filed their
claims for sufficient water with which
TO irrigate their crops In this way
an the water Of North Platte Is ap-
propriatcd by Nebraska farmers, who
use It for irrigatlng purposes.
