Vengeance Blamed in New Murder.
The murder of James Verrella, pro.

fourth street, near Broadway, by
gangsters, was declared today to have
been committed in revenge for Yer
rella's betrayal of "Dago Frank" Ci-
rofico, alleged member of the gang
which killed Rosenthal. -Four gun
fighters broke into Verrella' S resort
and shot him down as he was play
ing cards. He died instantly. The
scene of the murder is only a few
blocks from the Hoto Metropole,

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. HOMES.
The Importance of Revival OF ram
iIH Religion Is Urged.

The family or home is the first dl-
vine circle of society. 1t is or should
be the pattern of all that succeeds
the nation. the race. think all VINO
read this will agree with me in the
above statements so, then, if this IS
true. how careful we should be to
see that the homes are what CHRIST
would have them to be. / want to
saw here that the strength OF the
church is measured by the family
character. This being true, want
to ask a question which, l think, is
worthy of our consideration: what 10
the character of your modern nome
life? II no church is safe without
christian homes l think we should
stop and take time to see that Christ
has free course in our homes. Is
the church home-life exerting its
normal influence on our young people
of today? Let me give you some
facts that maybe you have not seen
or thought Of: There are about in
round numbers 100000 christian
homes in the United States, allowing
a christian population of 100000,
and one family to every five of popu-
lation. If we average one family al
tar for every eight christian homes
we have only 100000 homes with
affairs and 100000 without affairs.
Now, according to the estimate OF
the authority above quoted, there go
out from these 100000 christian
homes nearly $4,000 young men Il
years old, and 10000 of these go
from altarless christian homes. May
l not well ask in face of the above
facts. how can we ever expect to
christianiZe the world by Gods help
with our christian homes in this
state of affairs? God cannot and
will not use us in this great work
until we go back and first have our
homes as He would have them be.
| then offer as a remedy for this
sad state of affairs a revival: OF fam
lily religion; there must be revival
of family affairs; our homes must be-
come the centers of religious life
and devotion. The children must be
trained in homes where there is fam
lily worship. The parents must be
what they want their children to be-
Be religious, be prayerful, be wor-
shipful in your homes and then and
only until then will you be used of
God in bringing this sin-cursed world
to the foot of the cross. The church
must return to the scriptural and
primitive family altar if she is to re-
gain control of the young people and
save them to the church and to our
country. II. /. CHILDS.

Dandruff and Itching scalp Yield to
Zemo Treatment.

Why should you continue to expe-
riment with salves, greasy lotions
and fancy hair dressings trying to
rid your scalp of germ life? They
cant do it because they cannot pene-
trate 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 RENE
DY? 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 out of the
surface and destroys it.
A shampoo with ZEMO (ANTI-
SEPTIC) SOAP and one application
of ZEMO will entirely rid the scalp
of dandruff and scurf. Do not hest
tate, but get bottle of ZEMO today.
1t acts on new principle and will
do exactly what we claim for it.
