the state.
I have asked Mr.. Whitecotton
what service they rendered the
state and he has not answered
my question. His daughter has
been a guest in my home in
Washington and l am acquainted
with his wife, both of whom are
charming ladies, and he has a
most estimable family. l am
willing to leave it TO any fair
minded person that if l had
slandered Mr.. Whitecotton's
family he would have thrashed
me long ago.
While Mr.. Rucker was talk
ing a man standing by a demo-
crat reporter said, I am the
man who will get the pension
and II | thought Judge Rucker
would approve Of 1t ! would walk
right up to the platform and tell
the people so.'
The man was James Z. Fish
er, secretary Of the Brotherhood
Of Railroad Trainmen, of this
city.
''Mr. Fisher is one Of the best
known men on this division Of
the Wabash and his many friends
viii be pleased to know Of his
good luck.
"A ludicrous feature in regard
to the meeting was the White
cotton parade which took place
at about $50 o'clock Monday
evening. Mr.. Whitecotton's
admirers secured q band and
went to the depot to meet the
large delegations from Charlton
and Monroe counties. Their
surprise may be imagined when
seven men followed the banner
which bore the inscription:
" We're From Charlton and
for Whitecotton.'
Monroe. the old home county
of Mr.. whitecotton. sent nine.
who followed their banner
which was: 80.
" 'we'er From Monroe and for
Whitecotton.
The parade was short but
sweet. as all Of the followers
Joined the waiting crowd In front
Of Merchants hotel"
The Moberly Monitor says in
part in It's comments on Judge
Rucker:
Judge Rucker followed Mr..
Whitecotton. and agreeably
surprised the big crowd with his
reply. He was In q happy and
yet sarcastic frame Of mind and
went after his opponent In Wig
lorous fashion.
The crowd had gathered TO
hear some hot shots. and the
Judge pleased with some Of his
statements. He defended his
record In Congress and said few
men had a better one. He de-
Tended his action In regard 70
introducing pension bills In such
large numbers. Now and then
he would pop . question at his
opponent. Then he would fall
into q sarcastic vein and tell Of
what would happen when Jim
went 10 Congress. Il gave him
evident pleasure to refer 70
Whitcootton ~ his constituent
and said he was too good q one
TO lose and that he was going "a
keep him a constituent"

The lesson that should read from this is that the

certain hygienic that will keep his weight

the practices that permit him carry it. On the other

popular expositors through with it, into the state
ment that the you eat the thinner you grow. AS
matter of fact by frequent light meals the edge of the
appetite is bluned, and there is opportunity, by
proper exercise completely to oxidize burn up
certain food elements that would otherwise be accum-
lated as burdensome surplus.
For those inclined to slight overweight, there is no
need to adopt any intricate complex diet fad Regu-

be taken between breakfast and luncheon and luncheon

something harsh and fierce in them, though they still
sprawed bindy in their nest; and to keep her breasts
supplied with milk for their precious demands she had
to have good hunting.
Unlike some more fortunate mothers of the wild, she
had for her family alone. To her ferocious
she dared not let their hiding place be known, lest
some unnatural moment he should make meal of
them. Ordinarily except in mating season, they saw
little of each other, this wild and sulen pair. But in

NEAR the top of a steep and
l" rocky knoll at the heart of a
cedar swamp a wise old mother
lynx had her lair. The knoll was
an upthrust of broken strata, a
tangle of cleft rocks and stunted
birch and hemlock; and in a mar
row mouthed cave near the sum-
nit was the lair. Here the savage
mother felt that her litter was
pretty well hidden. All APP

too much concerned about
their enemies. Giving them a
hurried lick of reinsurance, to
their squalling Indignation, she
left them abruptly.
Shifting carefully outside,
she quickly satisfied herself
that the fox had come only to
within some ten feet or SO of
the entrance: but that was
more than enough for her
mother fears. The enemy had
been accommodating, and he
had found the hiding place of
her treasures. He was an
enemy whom she dreaded, be-

ARE MICROBES IN YOUR scALP7


II Has Been Proved That Microbes
Cause Badness
Professor Unna OF Hamburg, Ger
many, and DR.. Sabourand. the leading
French dermatologist. discovered that
a microbe causes badness. Their
theory has time and again been amply
verified through research experiments
carried on under the observation OF
eminent scientists. This microbe
lodges In the Sebum. which is the nat
ural hair oil. and when permitted to
flourish Il destroys the hair foliicles
and in time the pores entirely close.
and the scalp gradually takes on a
shiny appearance. When this happens
here is no hope of the growth of hair
being revived.
We have a remedy which will, we
honestly believe. remove dsndrun. ex-
terminate the microbe, promote good
circulation In the scalp and around the
hair roots. tighten and revitalise the
hair roots. and overcome badness. so
long as there Is any life left In the hair
roots.
