from the Payne law which is now in
effect The income tax is expected to
raise $70,000.000 the first year of its
operation and an increased amount in
succeeding years.

tee for the Democratic membership
of the committee on rules, accounts,
enrolled bills and mileage.
Rep. Henry of Texas will continue

part of the game at least
The contest in Chicago presents
new pilots on both sides, with Evers
saying Eat 'em" to the Cubs and Hug
gins the same to the Cardinals. By an
odd coincidence, both are second base
men. Neither team is reckoned very
strongly in the gallop for the gon-
Talon, but both are peppery teams and
can make plenty of fun fly for the
fans. Harry Sallee and Jimmy Laven-
der are probable pitching selections.
The National League champions of
McGraw seem certain victors in what
may turn out the most one-sided
game of the day when they meet the
Boston Braves. However, reports
have George Stallings doing wonderful
things in his first spring at the train
ing camp with the Hubites and he may
spring a surprise. He probably will
send Hub Perdue against the Giant
hurler who can not be guessed at
accurately until the game starts,
though Jeff Tesreau is likely to be
favored over Mathewson, Marquard
and the rest.
Fred Clarke's Pirates, who are pick
ed by many to win the pennant, are

Cub is expected to choose George
Suggs or Art Fromme to oppose the

dition. The game in Brooklyn today
took some of the snap out of the in

as an inaugural, but not so in Quaker
town. The Phillies' hackers look for
a great year under the new president,
Billy Locke. who is as much above
par apparently as Horace Fogel was
below it. Locke has given Doom free
rein and the fiery haired leader now

GREASE FOR THE HAIR

Preserve the Color, Says
Specialist,

Most women past middle age look
handsomer with gray hair-unless
they are fat and colsrless-but the diff
ficulty Is to make them believe 1t.
A missionary says that few of the
native women have gray hair even
when advanced in years. This she at
tributes to the nearly universal use
of grease on the hair.
scalp specialist when asked about
this theory said; There is much in
1t. Gray hair often comes from too
little oil In the scalp; il women would
grease their hau more 1t would keep
its color longer"
The objections to a greasy head can
be overcome. A little vaseline can be
well rubbed into the scalp once a
week. IL this cannot be done without
getting it in the long hair, go to q
hairdresser.
II you will not use yaseline, at least
give the hair thorough oiling each
time before 1t is shampooed-whlch

weather. oftener in summer.
Rub the hair with crude oil the night
before tbs to be washed, Do not use
too much; about half what the anna
teur thinks necessary will be more
than enough. AS even this small
amount Is ruinous to bed linen, tie up
the head and put an old case on the
pillow. Some women wear bathing
cap for the one night.

vent grayness. this application of
crude oil keeps out dandruff as moth.
ing else will.
Where there is tendency In fami-
lies to turn gray early extra care of
the hair must be taken. Do not use
dry washes on It, and be careful Of hot
curling irons.
Where there Ia tendency to gray
hair cultivate placid disposition
worry acts on the nerves, and nervous
disorders unchecked are harmful to
the hair. For the same reason fight
bad headaches; besides their discom-
fort the hair suffers. Thus indirectly
eyestrain is responsible for gray and
falling hair.
