ealdnsss 10 Too Generally Considered
Sign Of Advanced Age.
A bald-headed person does not have
an equal chance with one blessed with
a healthy head Of hair, because bald
ness is too generally accepted as an
indication Of age. Many large corpora
lions have established an age limit, and
refuse to take men over IS years Of
age as new employees.
Probably $50 Of bald-headed people
may regain a good head Of healthy hair
II they will follow our advice and &C.
cept our offer. We have a remedy that
we positively guarantee to grow hair
on any head. unless the roots Of the
hair are entirely dead. their follicles
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 ex-
actly what we claim 1t 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 talk
ing about, and with this offer back Of
our statements no one should scofi,
doubt our word, or hesitate to put our
remedy to an actual test.
We want every one who is suffering
from any scalp or hair trouble, dan
druff. falling hair, or badness to try
our Rexall "93" Hair Tonic. We want
them to use it regularly-say until

and refresh the scalp, tighten the hair
in it's roots, and grow new hair, we
will return every cent paid us for the
remedy for the mere asking. There
is no formality expected. and we exact
no obligation from the user whatever.
We make this offer with full under
standing that our business success
entirely depends upon the sort of treat
ment we accord our customers, and we
would not dare make the above Of
fer unless we were positively certain
that we could substantiate 1t In every
particular. Remember, you can obtain

ORDER ROADS TO
MODIFY TARIFFS
Commerce Commission Decree
Sets New Rate Principle.
BODY is DIVIDED 4 TO 3
Maiority's Opinion Is Vigorous Asser
tion Of Paramount Authority Of
National Government Over
All Interstate Traffic.

Washington - A far-reaching prin.
ciple was established by the interstate
commerce commission In an opinion
made public here. when it was held
that railroad must adjust their
freight charges so that justice will be
done between communities, regardless
of state borders.
II a railroad makes a low rate upon
traffic wholly within state. even
when forced to do so by state com
mission, 1t must accord the same rate
to Interstate traffic moving under sub
stantially similar conditions.
The principle was laid down by a
vote of to g.
The minority held that the powers
Of congress were usurped by the ma
jority opinion and that the remedy for
such situation should be applied
through additional legislation in the
case OF the railroad commission OF
Louisiana against the st. Louis South
western railway and other carriers OPP
Grating between Louisiana and Texas
The case practically precipitated a
conflict between federal and state au
thority over the control of interstate
traffic.
The opinion of the majority OF the
Interstate commission, prepared and
handed down by Commissioner Lane
is definite assertion Of the suprem
acy of national regulatory authority
over the powers exercised by any
state
1t is the first time this assertion has
been made distinctly by the commits
sion. In making 1t Chairman Prouty
and Commissioners Clark and Meyer
concurred with Commissioner Lane
and Commissioners Clements, Harlan
and McChord dissented,
The proceeding brought by the Lou
isiana commission placed in issue the
right of interstate carriers to discrim
mate In favor OF state traffic and
against interstate traffic.
The gravamen OF the complaint
the opinion says, lis that the defend
ant carriers make rates out OF Dallas
and other Texas points into eastern
Texas which are much lower than
those which they extend into Texas
from Shreveport, La. A rate OF 6t
cents carries tirst-class traffic to the
eastward from Dallas distance OF
100 miles, while The same rate OF 6C
cents will carry the same class of traf
fic only fifty-five miles into Texas
from Shreveport
The low rate within the state vi
Texas was forced upon the railroads
by the Texas railroad commission In
furtherance OF a policy to protect and
promote the tobbing interests OF
Texas.
The Louisiana commission and that
states commercial interests declared
that Louisiana was being discriminat
ed against because of the eXactlon OF
the higher rates from Shreveport west
ward and demanded an adjustment OF
the rates.
The contention OF Louisiana was sus
tanned by the commission absolutely
