HUSBANDS HAIR
If 1t Is Thinning Out or Full OF Dan
druff, Use Partisan Sage.

Most men are careless regarding the
care of the hair-not until it comes out
by the combful do they really take no
tice. Then it may be too late.
If your husbands hair is getting
thin; if he has dandruff or the scalp
itches and burns-take immediate &C
ton; do not let him become bald
head.
Get from S. L. Willis a SO cent bottle
of Partisan Sage. Rub it we'll into the
scalp every night. The first appllca-
ton will remove dandruff When the
hair stops falling and the new growth
appears use every other night until
the hair is thick and abundant.
Partisan Sage is delightful and IN
vigorating hair tonic for men, women
and children. 1t is scientific prepar-
ration based on thorough knowledge
of what is needed by the hair and scalp
to keep them perfectly healthy and re-
move dandruff, stop itch and fall
ing hair. Surely try Partisan Sage.

Hop Growers Plan.

SEATTLE, Wash, Dec. 1S.-Plans
are rapidly developing for the organ
ization of the interests of hop growers
in the three principal producing states
of the Pacific coast region, Washington,
Oregon and California. The organiza-
ton will be similar to the big union
of fruit growers in the American north
west, the object being to eliminate the
middleman. 1t is the plan of the pro-
posed organization, OF. which all grow
ers will be members, to sell hops direct
from producers to consumers, so that
the former will receive more money
for his product than he is now able to
obtain.
The peculiar situation in the hop
trade this year brought about this
movement. This country produced a
good crop, but prices instead of declin-
ing, advanced until at one time quota
lions were higher than those of last
year when short crop was harvested.
The season is only about half COM
pleted, yet the buying movement was
large enough to reduce stocks, espec-
tally of the choice grades, in first hands
considerably In the country markets

New American Leader.
It's deep laid plot 1t isn't chubby
to be hammering away at so many
points at once. At least plans may be
laid along that line for an alibi should
there be a slip anywhere. The English
learned much during the year of 1913
they may be expected to profit by what
they saw AS for polo, the Meadow
brook four may have to get up and
dust some if they repel the attack. The
English were picked to win this year.
and might have turned the trick, had
not Harry Whitney's aggregation fair
ly tore up all the turf at Meadowbrook
in carrying the fight to the cracks from
the other side The Britishers were not
accustomed to having the game taken
so blamed seriously, but when they
found it had to be done, they did fair
little job of ripping up considerable
sod themselves.
Whitney has announced his retire
ment from the game, so that the Amer
lean four will have new leader next
year 1t might fall to the veteran Fox
halle to go to the front again, but Whit
ney said he believed some of the young
er men should be given a chance and
if the ideas of the retiring leader are
followed Keene is more or less let out
The English are going at this polo
business in dead earnest this trip. The
ponies and candidates for the team are
to be sent to Spain for their training.
The weather isn't to be given a chance
to interfere and under the skies of the
south J. Bulls men will keep in mind
the charging Monte Waterbury and
work up a counter attack.

at 'em, will be the cry for next year
: as we are facing one of the most deter
mined English invasions in sporting
history. In fact Uncle Sam is to be at
tackled from three different quarters
by the Britishers and if he comes
through without having his coat tails
at least somewhat frayed, it will be
time to stick another national holiday
on the calendar We are to be attack
ed by land and water, foot and horse
back. The challenge recently sent
over by the Hurlinghame poloists for
another tussel for the international
cup made it certain that our esteemed
Uncle during the coming summer
months is to be one of the busiest lit
tie defenders that ever defended. In
addition to the polo cup which must
be nursed over another assault, there
is the Dwight F. Davis tennis trophy
and the Americas cup to keep under
lock and key.

changes in the British team, just as the

The Tennis Situation.
So long as Maurice Mclaughlin is
able to shoot em over the net there
will not be any need OF great concern
as to tennis. Norris Williams proved
to be almost as good as the California
comet and with other stars rapidly ris-
ing the chances appear good for sue
cessful defense of the Davis trophy.
Harold Hackett, the third member of
the American team which lifted the
cup, stands good chance of being sup
planted in next years tournaments.
The English quickly discovered that
Hackett was the weak member of the
American team and fired as many of
the shots as they could in his direction.
But for the wonderful work of Nc
Laughlin the cup would probably have
remained on the other side, and the
Americans would have been gloriously
drubbed in the double.
About LiptOn's Bout.
There is much jockeying in the re-
ports coming from the erectors of the
two boats which will meet in the inter
national race for the Americas cup,
as there will be in the race proper.
Early reports indicate that the defender
and challenger will differ widely in de
sign. Sir Thomas Upton is going to
make his stab at the cup a real Upper,
and the English builders are giving the
impression that they have something
"in the hole" to spring when the time
comes Naturally figures as to the
measurements of the hulls will be kept
secret until too late for the other fell
low to make switch.
The Shamrock " is expected to have
an unusually large sail spread. Re-
ports have it that her keel recently
cast weighs eighty tons. The Sham
rock III had ninety tons in her keel,
and was a ninety footer. The Sham
rock w is to be only about rs feet on
the water line, so that with the great
weight in the keel she may be expected
to have several acres of sail in compar
ison with her size. Sir Tom is evident
ly after driving power. The defender,
being built by the Herreshoffs will have
a keel weighing only about So tons, 1t Is
This leads to the bellet
that Herreshoff is going to produce
new seventy footer. A new creation
will be a centre-board giving the de-
fender eight feet additional draushl
on windword work.

Difficult Problem.

Now, if you knew or were convinced
that you had only one more year to live
in this world-one more year before you
must cross the bar in the dark and sail
out into the uncharted seas from which
return trips have been few-some say
never-what would you do-how would
you live the swift-flying hours of the
year?
Rather difficult question to answer
all at once, is it notf Let's stop to
think. Here's the case of girl who has
been told that she can live but year.
and who tells us what she is doing. Per-
haps she can help US think what we
would do in like circumstances-listen:

lovlinesss can and when | go, there are

Beautiful way to say farewell, isn't
it But let's emember that these things
can be done not merely as farewells, you
know, but as regular things, so that il
we don't have time TO do much as anne
mortal, the memorial will be there just
the same.

New Role For a Hen

We have heard many praises sung of
the hen, the queen of the barnyard, but
when it comes to her majesty hobo
ing her way through from one town to
another. the role is an entirely new one.
When big freight pulled into the l. &
A. yards here several days ago, Car In
spector Harry Scrivner discovered nice,
fat hen on the bumper of car, having
ridden in that position all the way from
Beattyville to Richmond. Mr.. Scrivner
took possession OF the fowl and feels very
proud to have found the first hobo hen
in these parts. 1t is supposed the fowl
went to roost on the car and the train
pulling out at an early morning hour,
she awoke to find herself travelling
some.
