OBSERVE THE LAW OF ROAD.
Certain Phases Of It Are Little I'M
derstOOd by Drivers.

Certain Phases of IL Are Little I'm.
derstOOd by Drivers.
Several people have visited the
county attorneys office within the
past few weeks to learn II they can
secure restitution for minor damages
incurred on country roads, through
ignorance OF the road law. In more
than one of these cases, the COM
planning party was himself to blame
and in the others, the trouble was
not because of neglect or malice,
but resulted from an ignorance Of
certain phases of the law Of the
road.
The main rule, that two drivers,
approaching each other from oppo-
site directions, shall each turn to
the right, in passing, is generally
understood and observed. But the
minor phases are not so generally
understood and therein lies the
trouble.
One OF the most important road
laws is the one regarding the pass
ing of a vehicle that is in front Of
you and proceeding in the same d.
rection. Many people turn to the
left in driving around a buggy or
an automobile thinking that the law
requires this, but they are wrong.
In all cases the vehicle driving
around another conveyance proceed
Ing in the same direction should
turn to the right. There is good
reason for this. II you turn to the
eft you are liable to meet a vehicle
coming toward you, who is also
seeking to pass the buggy in front
II you, and who naturally turns to
he right in order to do this.
Disregarding this road law may
'esult in accident and the several
made to County Attor-
ley Hurd are the direct result Of
to violation. Drivers Of all con-
eyances should familiarize them
elves thoroughly with the law OF
he road. 1t will avoid much in
and in many cases ser
BUS accidents.

Warning.


Since its introduction into the
United States, the sales Of Partisan
Sage have been phenomenal. This
success has led to many limitations.
Look out for them, get the genuine.
See that the girl with the auburn
hair is on every package.
Partisan Sage is the quickest act
ing and most efficient hair tonic
in the world.
1t is made to conform to DR.. San
gerbond's (of Paris) proven theory
that dandruff, falling hair, badness
and scalp itch are caused by germs.
Partisan Sage kills these dandruff
germs and removed all trace Of
dandruff in two weeks, or money
back; it stops falling hair and itch
ing scalp and prevents badness.
And remember that badness is
caused by dandruff germs, those lit
tie hard working, persistent devils
that day and night do nothing but
dig into the roots Of the hair and
destroy its vitality.
Partisan Sage is a daintily per-
fumed hair dressing; not sticky or
