GOVERNMENT RAILROADS.

Americans pride themselves that
they can do things a little better than
the people of any other nation. There
fore those who have studied the rail-
roads run by the governments of 9TH
er countries are met by the argument
that no criterion can be established
until the United States tries the prob
lem, but nevertheless the following edi-
torial from The Seattle Post-Intelli-
gencer is of interest al the present
time:
Government ownership n opera
ton of railroads, even in the older
countries of the world, where condi-
tons are so settled that changes come
slowly, does not always operate as
well in fact as theorists in this coun-
try profess to believe.
Just al present in France, this Is
pressed home pretty strongly. Some
three years since, in extension Of the
policy of government ownership, the
state purchased the Western railway,
now known as the "Ouest-Etat.' Now
the ministry is appealing to the legis-
lature for an extra appropriation of
$4,000, 900 for the maintenance of the
road. incidentally it has come to light
that the government has already ex-
pended w $4,000, 900 over and above
the running expenses OF the road.
The official report after all of this
expenditure, is to the effect that the
rolling stock SIS in a deplorable con-
dition, the rails are historic n many
Of the bridges have been condemned by
government engineers" Another fea-
ture Of the report la open the eyes
OF some Of those who have the idea
that under government ownership and
operation there would be a diminutfon
in the number OF casualties. Tt is to
the effect that the compensation re-
auired for the numerous accidents on
the line keeps fair pace with the
amount annually expended in tempo
rary repairs.
The bureaucracy intrusted with the
management of railroads, not only IN
France but in other countries OF con.
| tinentaI Europe, is serenely indiffer.
ent to- the comfort or convenience OF
the travelling public, Travellers ii
Europe are bitter In their complaint,
Of the lack of system, resulting in vex.
atious delays, and of the indifference
displayed with regard to modern, EFF.
fectiye equipment on the state owned
railroads. 1t appears the same detects
extend to the manner OF economics
administration.

1t is easy enough to be pleasant
When life o along like a song,
But the fellow worth while
Is the one who can smile
When like a grim fire alarm gong
The telephone peals forth at midnight,
And be reused from his slumber
And he the call
Just to find after all,
That some one has got the wrong
number.

]. z. BOyett.

We call attention to the formal
announcement, in this issue, of J r
Boyett, for reelection as Sheriff Of
this County. Mr. Boyett needs
no introduction to our peo-
pie, having held the Office for two
years, he has made fearless, i'm.
partial officer and won the high
esteem of all who know him. In
the near future he will see the
voters in person and solicit your
support. Lawrence County could
not find a man any more suited or
qualified for the Office he seeks
than Mr.. Boyett.
Close attention to the sometimes
delicate and dangerous duties of
the Office, combined with an un-
failing courtesy and gentlemanly
bearing, have made his admins
tration one of which his friends
, may point with pride. Sheriff
Boy EFT has discharged his duty
without fear or favor, partiality OF
prediudice. This splendid record
is the basis upon which rests hi:
claims and appeal for a second
term.

A Great Discovery
Certain Ingredients That Really
Promote Hair Growth when
Properly COmbiged

Resorcin is one of the most eff
fective germ destrOyers ever dis
covered by science, and in connect.
ion with Beta Napthol, which is
both germicidal and antiseptic, a
combination is formed which de-
stroys the germs which rob the
hair OF its natural nourishment,
and also creates a clean, healthy
condition of the scalp, which pre-.
vents the development of new
germs.
Pilocarpin, although not color
ing matter or dye, is well.known
Ingredient for restoring the hair to
its naturai color, when the loss of
hair has been cansed by a disease
of the scalp.
/ These ingredients in proper COM
binatiOn, with alcohol added as a
stimulant and for its Well.defned
nourishing properties, perfect per-
haps the most efiec tive remedy
that is known for scalp and hair
troubles.
We have a remedy which is
chiefly composed Of these ingredi.
ents, in combination with other
extremely invaluable medicinal
agents. We guarantee it to posi-
lively cure dandruff and to grow
hair, even though the scalp in
spots is bare of hair. If there is
any vitality left in the roots, it
will positively cure badness, or
we will refund your money. If the
scalp has a glazed, shiny appear
ance, it's an indication that bald
ness is permanent. but in other
instances we believe badness is
durable.
We want every one troubled
with scalp disease or loss of hair
to try Rexall 1913" Hair Tonic, Il
it does not cure dandrufi and grow
hair to the satisfaction of the user,
we will without question or quib.
BILE return every cent paid us for it
We print this guarantee on every
3 bottle. 1t has effected a cure il
90 per cent of cases where put 20 &
J practical test.
Rexall "93" Hair Tonic is en-
tirely unlike, and we think, II
every particular, better than any
, thing else we know Of for which
it is prescribed We urge you II
Q try this preparation at our entir,
risk. Certainly we know of nj
better guarantee to give you. Re
