SIMPLE WAY TO DARK
EN- GRAY HAIR
You Can Prepare a Mixture at Home
That Does II Nicely.

If every person knew what simple
matter it is to darken their gray hair
this sign of advancing years would
be rarity. The ordinary dye or stain
is not at all salts factory and is easily
detected, leaving the hair sticky, rubs
off or colors the scalp, but this simple
recipe, which you can make up at
home at little cost, overcomes all
these objections and is certain 10 give
splendid satisfaction. To ounces of
water add one small box of Barbo
Compound, l ounce of bay rum and
Il ounce of glycerine. This makes
mixture that gradually darkens the
hair or beard to rich, glossy brown,
removes dandruff and other ills of the
scalp and promotes the growth OF the
hair. Apply once a week and when
it is sufficiently darkened use once
every two weeks. Be sure your drug
gist doesn't give you a substitute for
Rarbo Compound. If he is out of 1t.
he should order it for you from his
wholesaler. You will find if you try
this excellent formula that there is
nothing that can take it's place.

There is only one way to cure deaf
ness. and thar is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining
OF the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is inflamed YOU have a rumblirg
sound or imperfect hearing, ana when
il is entirely clos ed. Deafness is the re-
suit. and unless the inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored TO
its normal condition. hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out OF
ten are caused by Catarrh, which is
nothing but an inflamed condition Of

there would be many big trades this

PRETTY HOMEMADE SCREEN.

How to Do the Work Easily and at
Triflins Expense.
A useful ornamental bed or sitting
room screen can be made at home by
getting from a builders supply shop
four slater's laths, saving each of to
the length Of fifty-seven inches. This
will leave six short pieces twenty-four
inches long.
Nail the pieces together firmly to
form two frames, putting short piece
across the center Of each frame to
brace it.
Select cheap cretonne to harmonic
with the color Of the room in which
you wish to use the screen. Blue and
white is a good color combination for
a bedroom. Get three and one-quarter
yards. which will cover one side of
each frame
Lay the frames on the door and tack
the cretonne on each Of them, folding
the material over each end and the
sides, taking care to stretch 1t over the
frames tightly and smoothly. This
forms the back of the screen. On the
front part put two pieces Of stiff card,
board eight inches wide and the width
of the screen that has previously been
covered with dark blue sateen. Tack
these firmly to the top of the frame
and to the lower edges plat blue and
white Powered lawn extending the
length of the screen.
All around the edges, with brass
headed tacks, put binding of white
tape.
This can be a plain or fancy weave
The latter adds to the attractiveness OF
the screen. Tack the tape on the plain
sateen surface so that it forms eight.
cen small squares
Repeat this on both frames and join
them at each end with strong brass
hinges With small expense and very
little trouble you will have a good
looking screen that will answer every
purpose designed for such piece OF
furniture.

LAYING THE TABLECLOTH.
II Was Almost a Work Of Art In this
Sixteenth Century.

II Was Almost a Work Of Art In the
Sixteenth Century.
In the twelfth century tablecloths
were very large and were always laid
on the table double. For a long time
they were called ''doubliers' for that
reason. The cloth was first placed so
as to touch the floor on the side at
which the guests sat; then all that re-
manned was folded SO that 1t just COW
cred the table.
Charles V. had sixty-seven table
cloths which were from fifteen to TWEEN
ty yards long and two yards wide. he
had one cloth tbirty-two yards long,
which had the arms Of France en-
broidered on it in silk. All these were
fringed.
In the sixteenth century 'doubliers"
were replaced by two tablecloths. one
OF which was small and was laid just
as we lay ours today. The other. which
was put on over it. was large and of
beautifully figured linen. 1t was skill
fully folded in such a way that, as one
chonicler tells, ut resembled a wind
ing river, gently ruff1ed by n little
breeze. for among very many little
folds were here and there great bub-
bles"
It must have required much art and
care to make dishes. plates. saltcel-
lars. sauce dishes and glasses stand
steadily in the midst Of this undulat-
Ing sea and among those ''bubbles'
and puffy folds. However. the fashion
had only a short existence. and toward
the latter part Of the century a single
cloth laid fat and touching the floor on
all sides Of the table came into general
use.-New York Tribune.

five persons were shot. FIVE of them
fatally in rioting between Liberals
and conservatives here. A battle be.
tween the opposing political factions
was fought in Central park. Further
trouble is expected.
Over 400 shots were fired before the

Fifty arrests were made. During the
fighting number of bullets struck

erican employees had narrow escapes
After the battle the city was put
under martial law. Cavalry patrolled
the streets and no crowds were al.
lowed to gather.
This is the first disorder in the pol
in the presidential election on Nov
ember IL.
The trouble follows two political raj
lies, one held by the liberals and the
other by the conservatives.
After the meetings two bodies OF
rival political adherents met in the
streets. Soon 5000 persons had gath
cred and were fighting fiercely.
The police were powerless to dis
perse the crowds and retired, calling
the rurales.
Each side claimed that the other
started the shooting. Within short
time after midnight shots were being
exchanged. Several bullets were inn
bedded in the walls of the American
club before the battle moved out OF
range.
The hottest fight was in and around
Central park where battle lines were
drawn.
The fighters took refuge behind pill
lars and in houses and kept up an
uninterrupted fire. Many conserva
tives fed into the Asbert political
club and shot from the windows.
