Early Piety Not Always The Cause
of Badness.

Inasmuch as it is an accepted fact
that badness, falling hair and dandruff
are caused by a germ, doesn't it stand
to reason that the only way to prevent
such calamities is to kill the germs?
And doesn't it stand to reason that
the only way to kill these germs is to
use Partisan Sage, which The Owl
Drug store have so much faith in that
they guarantee it to cure dandruff,
falling hair and itching scalp in two
weeks, or money back
Partisan Sage is a delightful hair
tonic, pleasant to use. 1t is not sticky
or greasy, and contains only those in
gradients that will surely benefit.
1t is now sold by druggists all over
America, and by The Owl Drug Store
for so cents a large bottle. 1t is used
extensively by women who desire lux
uriant hair with a radiant luster. The
girl with the Auburn hair is on every
package.

Der of the general staff of the United
States army and ordered back to
Washington for duty. In apprecia-
ton Of his splendid services a strong
appeal was made to the war depart
meDt and also to the President to
have him remain until his work here
was completed, but for the reasons
stated Major Simpson was sent here
to complete the work.
The cordial relations which at once
sprung up between Colonel Devol and
the others who were assigned to duty
here brought the people Of this section
into very friendly attitude towards
the military arm of the government.
Colonel Devol was in San Francisco at
the time of the great earthquake that
destroyed that city and his work there
was recognized as highly creditable.
The Red Cross Society made him an
honorary member Of that organization
in recognition of his relief work at
San Francisco. For several years, Col
onel Devol has been in charge of COM
missary work on the Isthmus Of Pan
anna. His administrative ability is
recognized wherever he is known.
1t will be a matter of general inter-
est and satisfaction to the people in
this section to know Of Colonel Devol's
as brigadier general of
the army.

me that this affords ample protection

charge that banks would be prevented
by the new legislation from discount

"The Spectre Bridegroom" a two
part Eclair adoption from Washington
Irving's quaint little tale by the same
name, will be exhibited at the Lomo
theatre Saturday Feb. %. Probably
the most striking feature of this film
is the way in which it visualizes the
old time Dutch atmosphere of the days
right at the close of the American Rev
olution, when such gentle sports as
Halloween games were in high favor
when young misses wore pretty Dutch
caps and the men affected knee breech-
es,, ruffies and periwigs. In plot the
adoption from Irving's fantasy does
not follow the original so closely as
to hamper the efficiency of production,
but it still retains the charm of the
masters delightful word paintings.

young, for who does not enjoy Hal
