between the older immigration from north

the popular imagination is apt to assume
that if the newcomers in this country can
play our games as we'll as the races that
preceded them their qualifications for
American citizenship are pretty we'll es-

add beauty to a woman.
IL ls u matter of fact that false
hair is absolutely Injurious TO The
natural hair OF those wearing it, It
can be plainly seen that the piling Of
hair on top of ones head is going to

1t is detrim entail, for it causes a
warmth and a Precipitation that is
deadly TO the wearer of it.. Those
who wear false hair constantly can
safely wager that in the end thew
will lose their own hair. IF women
would only realize that the hair can
be dressed just as tastcfullv and
cbarmlngly as it can be with plies of
false hair they would throw awav the
false hair and never again wear it.

The Book Of Mormon contains a
declaration that the Latter Day Saints

Professor Sainaek, making researches
as to the early fauna of the Missis-

believers in the Book of Mormon con-
tend that these discoveries verify the
statements in the sacred Writings.
They have used the Iowa savant's dis

eager for him to go forward in his
work, in order that their church may
profit thereby.
