Bald-headed People May Get a New

The following must therefore prove

by science, and i'm connection with
Beta Napthol, which is both germlcid-

which rob the hair OF its nutriment,
and also creates clean and healthy

the development of new germs.
Pilocarpin is a well known agent for
restoring the hair to its natural color
where the loss of color has been due
to a disease of the scalp. Yet, 1t is
not coloring matter or dye.
This combination of curatives mix

II therefore held the closest atten -

frequent applause ana opened the eyes
OF many as To what is really meant I'm
the arbitration treaties now pending.
Governor Osborn made a character
istic and enthusiastic talk, In which
he arralgncd the brewery controlled

ready ears was shown by the great
outburst OF applause with which he
was frequently interrupted.
Congressman Asher G. Kinds of
Maine and Congressman Joseph w.
Fordney of the Eighth district, were
the other guests
Preceding the banquet a public re-
ception was held at the Masonic club
room, where more than 1000 greeted
the guests.
The following officers were elected
by the Clinton County Republican
club: President, William NJ. Smith;
vice president Theodore Townsend:
secretary. Robert $. Armour; treasur-

William Nj. Smith was POSTMASTER
At the banquet and introduced the
speakers with brief and witty remarks.
Governor Osborn, the first speaker,
was introduced as the governor who
has done away with the criticism that
the governor is not the real governor.
There is only one governor in Mich

the POSTMASTER.

EVt OF THANKSGIVING
Columbus and Surrounding
Country Visited by Miniature
Snow Storm

Columbus and the surrounding
country were visited by the first
snow storm Of the season yes
terday. The flakes began to fall
shortly before noon and cor
tinued to descend for several
hours. They were light and
feathery at first, but gradually
increased in size, and had the
temperature been lower the
ground would undoubtedly have
been covered to a depth Of sew
eral inches. The atmosphere,
however. was not sufficiently
frigid for the flakes to congeal,
and while many lawns and the
roofs of some houses received
white coverings no snow adhered
to the streets and sidewalks,
which were wet and sloppy, just
as though a drizzling rain had
fallen.
Shakespeare has said that it
requires all kinds and conditions
of men to make up the world,
and the snow storm was viewed
by different people according to
their ages, the state of their
health and their general condi-
tions. By the youngsters it was
hailed with delight, for there is
always something fascinating
about a snow storm to small boys,
and as they wended their several
ways homeward at the close of
school the elation which they
felt was reflected in their BEAM
ing countenances. To the old
and infrm the advent of snow
was anything but pleasing, for
they knew that prolonged spell
of bad weather would mean hard
ship and suffering. The mer-
chants who sell umbrellas, over
shoes, overcoats and other heavy
clothing derived almost as much
pleasure from the snow as did
the small boys, for they know
that it meant increased sales, and
increased sales mean a cores
ponding increase in profits.
Aid the flakes not melted as
they descended there would un-
doubtedly have been sufficient
snow on the ground for Colum-
bians to have enjoyed sleigh rides
today, which is Thanksgiving
day, but the flakes melted as
they fell, and there will be no
sleigh rides.
