She Darkened Her
Gray Hair
A Kansas City Lady parkened Her
Gray Hair and Stimulated It's
Growth by . Simple
Home Process.
She Tells How She Did It.

Mrs. A Biggam, a well known resi-
dent Of Kansas City, Mo-, who dark
ened her gray hair by a simple home
process made the following statement:
ANY lady or gentleman can darken
their gray or faded hair, stimulate its
growth and make 1t soft and glossy
with this simple recipe. which they
can mix at home. To half pint Of
water add OF. Of bay rum. small box
Of Barbo Compound and IA OF. Of giy-
cerine. These ingredients can be pur-
chased at any drug store at very little
cost. Apply to the hair twice a week
until the gray hair is darkened suf-
f1ciently, then every two weeks. This
mixture relieves any scalp troubles
and is excellent for dandruff and fall
ing hair. It does not stain the scalp.
is not sticky or greasy and does not
rub of. It will make a gray haired
person look 10 to 20 years younger" "

The King Business
Safer and Healthier.

Reports from Vienna say that good
deal of anxiety is felt about the physi-
cal condition Of the venerable ruler Of
Austria Hungary. This is not sur
prising, in view OF the fact that Francis
Joseph is more than eighty-two years
old. At that age any man in any
country. engaged in any occupation or
in none, may well show signs Of falling
strength and diminishing vitality.
The truth is that the long life and
general good health OF the Austrian
emperor serves as a reminder that the
king business is growing much safer
and healthier than It used to be. 1t is
not long, as the history Of the world
gees. since few monarchs could hope
to live to an old age and die peace
fully in their beds. If disease did not
cut short their lives the dagger or bull
let of an assassin usually did, or else
they fell in battle or were poisoned by
stealth. Modern kings and emperors
have less power than their predeces-
sors had centuries ago, but they have
a better time while they live and they
live longer.
In fact, the business Of serving as
hereditary rulers in civilized countries
has become a quiet, leisurely and
rather humdrum occupation. 1t calls
for great deal of attention to small
matters, but it involves little severe
strain and few risks. 1t is a gentle
manly job. well paid and altogether
comfortable for men who are not too
fond Of having their own way or too
much exercised over great problems Of
state.

A School for Poets.

A School for Poets.
Our Correspondence School is pre-
pared to furnish instruction in obi
tuary poetry writing and will guaran-
tee any pupil enough in three lessons
to enable him to secure good posi-
ton with some newspaper or granite
monument concern. We agree to teach
you to rhyme heaven" with given" in
two lessons and by the time you have
finished the third lesson you will be
able to find rhyme for Wilson and
Marshall" Young man, what do you
find in your pay envelope? AL our
graduates are in high salaried posi-
tions-if they have been able to get
them. There is money in poetry writ
ing. There must be money in it, be-
cause nobody ever got any out OF 1t,
Old Uncle Pete has cashed in his
checks.
His waiskers froze to q sharp apex
He slipped and fell
With terrible yell
And stabbed himself in the solar plex.
There was an old maid who was never
afraid
To knock all her friends with will
The gossip she made was her whole
stock in trade
It was all grist that came to her
mill.
She caught cold one day and contract
ed a pain
That stopped her from knocking on
this earth again.
She knocked at the gate Of St Peters
in vain,
And she's probably knocking there

went to the Craig home to return a
book she had borrowed.
A witness is said to have told the
jury that DR.. Knabe returned home on
the night of the murder and changed
clothes completely. Detective Webster
insists that the woman was killed by
person familiar with human anat-
ony and familiar with what butchers
call the sheep nick wound, described
medically as 'ian incision in the throat
which insures death by bleeding with
out the squirting Of blood"
Their were only two or three drops
OF blood on DR.. Knabe in spite of the
CHASTITY wound. The prosecution s
theory is that some one entered the
apartments early in the morning after
the murder and washed the blood stains
and carried away the evidence that
might have been discriminating.
DR.. Craig Is a widower, about a
years of age.

Would Throw a Eli.


The Pensacola Journal, endorsing
the suggestion that Thomas Nelson
Page, of Virginia, be made our next
ambassador to England, says that he
is probably without prejudice at the
head Of American letters" If William
Dean Howells and his coterie of wor-
shippers should hear that they would
Immediately emit the "horse laugh" If
people of such high culture and refine
ment could be guilty of such a rude
form Of vocalism, and Mr.. Howells
himself would probably be moved to
throw out a few more depressing hints
about the hopeless provincialism of the
South. We heartily endorse the high
praise Of the Virginian By The Journal,
except that we would not assign him
to the first place in American letters.
In critical. but not constructive liter
ary ability that honor probably be-
lcngs to Mr.. Howells. but as novelist
who writes books which really enter
tain those outside the inner circle Of
high culture to which the latter caters,
Thomas Nelson Is the better workman.

Irrespective of the copyright the fol-
lowing Is taken from the Tallahassee
True Democrat.
Park Trammell is now governor,
And we are all very glad.
For he's the prettiest governor
That Florida has ever had.
When you meet him he's cmiling,
For his heart is always glad:
His hands are warm and welcome,
For you never see him sad.
We know he's tall and Handsome;
We know he's gecd and true.
He goes to church and Sunday school,
For he sits next to my pew.
So now, dear Park, we welcome you;
We are so glad, so glad;
We hope you'll make the best governor
That Florida has ever had.

Broke the Record,

Paid her fare from far of Sweden,
Met her at the railroad train,
She was what we had been needin
And had sought for long in vain.
Was not very stylish loolxin'
And the English didn't know,
She was ignorant Of cookin'
And did not pretend to sew.
For her wages she got double
What we could afford to pay,
Then we bade farewell to trouble
And we said, "This one will stay"
Let her eat with US at dinner,
Let her have the guest room, too,
And we'd thought we'd picked win

Who'd be constant, tried and true.
But one day our next door neighbor
Talked to her by making signs.
And she changed her field Of labor
With our wash still on the lines.
He had offered her a dollar
More income" so to speak,
And we didn't dare to "holler'
For we'd kept her most a week.
