STATE BANK CASE
STARTED ONCE AGAIN

The State Bank case was taken
up in the District Court again
yesterday and the music of the
voices of the arguing attorney
made Carson seem natural once
again. Judge Massey had the
floor the greater part of the day
and as the doors and windows of
the court room were open, he was
heard over town. There was some
kind of motion being argued and
two men who were not drawing
salary sat for a Will in the rear
of the room wondering what it was
all about. AS the two men have
been wondering for years when
another dividend was to be paid it
was quite a change and a relief for
them.
Attorney Peck was not present
but will proba' ly arrived later on
the scene. Judge Massey did the
talking; Judge Downer did bis
usual AMOUNT of walking; Attorney
Platt read a magazine and drew
pictures on a blotter; Judge Mack
stroked his silvery locks and
objected TO the argument, while
Judge Langan listened and
wondered.
The case started again and it is
hoped will continue for several
days without adjournment. The
case has dragged along for such a
length Of time that the papers in
the case are all getting yellowed
with age and the children of some
of the attorneys in the state are
studying up the ancient history
preparatory to taking up the case
when the present attorneys have
been called hence. Carson News.

CARE OF HI HAIR

All scalps, even healthy ones. are pre-
disposed to a little dandruff, which IS
the natural scaling off of the skin. quite
the same as on the body, which Is re-
moved In the bath and by rubbing the
skin, when the dead centre peels off.
The most practical demonstration of this
will be found In the Russian bath.
Dandruff is easily removed when the
hair is thoroughly brushed every day.
Dandruff checks the growth of the hair
by c~llnging to the skin about the roots,
preventing all nourishment from
reaching the starving roots. These, of
course. become weakened until there Is
no vitality left to hold the hair; there
fore, II drops out.
So soon as there Is a tendency for the
hair to become harsh, dry or brittle. dis
cover the cause at once. for 1t means
destruction sooner or later.
A systematic brushing of the hair every
night before retiring win do much toward
keeping both scalp and hair clean. Tho
brushing stimulates the roots to pour
out their oil and make the hair lustrous.
A brush should be chosen with bristles
which easily penetrate to the scalp, but
not too harsh.
After removing the pins at night and
shaking the hair over the shoulders to
ventilate it, separate it at the side of the
head, draw a strand toward the face. then
apply the brush directly to the scalp in
the seam, drawing It of on the hair.
Separate the hair all over the head In
this manner, using the brush to remove
dandruff and soil.
A soft linen or silk handkerchief rubbed
directly on the scalp removes CRIME and
perspiration and is often less Irritating
than the brush, especially when the skin
seems to be very thin.
