THICK, GLOSSY HAIR
 FREE FROM DANDRUFF
Girls! Beautify your hair! Make il
 soft fluffy and luxuriant.

Try as you will, after an appplica- tion of Dandenrine, you cannot find a single trace of dandruff or falling hair and your scalp will not itch, but what will please you most, will be after few weeks. use, when you see new hair, fine and downy at first yes-but really new hair-growing all over the scalp.
 A little Danderine immediately doubles the beauty of your hair. No difference how dulL faded, brittle and scraggy, just moisten a cloth with Danderine and carefully draw it through your hair, taNing one small strand at time. The effect is immediate and amazing-your hair will be light, fluffy and wavy, and have an appearance of abundance; an incomparable lustre, softness and luxuriance, the beauty and simmer of true hair health.
 Get a 25 cent bottle of Knowlton's Danderine from any drug store or toilet counter, and prove that your hair is as pretty and soft as any that it has been neglected or injured by careless treatment-that's all.

Baseball Magnates Will En- ygineer Their Biggest Swaps Thursday
NEW MANAGERS, TOO
 rieers Want New Inffeld and Jimmy Welsh Certain Fe Go te the
 Yankees
 
(By MOINTY)

New York, Nov. 1.-What will the harvest be? The big trading time of the American League year is at hand the annual meeting, which will be held in Chicago next Thursday. It has been the vogue, in the past for the magnates to engineer their big gest swaps at this time. Deals al- ready hanging fire are closed up. others are set in motion and still others are put through on the spur of the moment. In 8 number of cases the managers as we'll as the club presidents make it their busi- ness to be present, and in most of the remaining cases, the magnates are under instructions from their field generals as to what sort of deals they shall attempt to swing. In fact, little else Is likely to be done at the meeting, beyond the transac- ton of routine business, in which Ban Johnson will say what he de-  sires and the magnates will vote unanimously for it.
 Indications are that there will be about the usual amount of bartering, though there probably will be no such big affairs as the Chance-Tink- er-Corrident transaction that resulted in new managers for two clubs-the Cincinnati Nationals and the New York Americans. Every club Is like ly to be mixed up in the interchange of players, either receiving or de- ivering or both. About the only team that will rest on it's oars so far as going after new men is con- cerned is Connie Mack's band of worlds champion Athletics. Yet even the Athletics probably will be in on the general doings,' for it is likely that when President Shibe Farrell of the Yankees get together the final details cfsatfe deal by which Out

BLEACHERS COLLAPSE
 ON GRIDIRON FIELD
One Thousand Persons Thrown to
 Ground and Score or More Are Iniured

Greencastle, Indiana, Nov. l. Without warning of any nature the entire section of bleachers ill the north field of the Depaum Gridiron fell this afternoon, throwing at least 1000 people to the ground. in some cases a distance of fifteen feet. At least score or more were injured in the mix-up. The bleachers fell just at the start of the Rose Poly Depauw football game. They were packed until it was impossible to get standing room and this was prob ably the cause of the accident. It was a miracle that number were not crushed by the heavy falling timbers. ..a al8

fielded Jimmy Walsh goes to the lat. ter will be fixed up. 1t is learned from an authoritive source that, de. spite partial denials by both sides this transaction is certainty. | The New York club bids fair to be involved in more trades than any other team, aside from this one, de- spite the fact that Frank Chance, the manager, is in California. It is said that he has given President Taffrell a list of:men he is willing to get rid of, and also 6 list of men on other clubs he would like to have and whom he regards as ''tradeable. 2 Among the players. he is willing to send away are said to be Russell Ford, the spitball sensation of 1910; Jack Warhop, another pitcher; Out fielder Harry Wolter, Infielder Jack Knight, Pitcher Hay Fisher and Catcher Ed Sweeney, rated in 1910 and 1911 as one of the leading back stops of the game. In return for them he hopes to get 8 catcher, one or two outfielders and as many-pitch- era as can be rounded up, in case Farrell Is able to get value received.
 Another club that may go the limit is the tribe of tailend St. Louis Browns. Branch Hickey, just at the dawn of his managerial careers, is anxious to make good and realizes that in order to do 30 he needs to strengthen his team in several places. His outfit is probably the most poorly balanced in either league, possessing a pitching. staff that figures on par with the best in the game and a fair catching staff, but weak in every other depart ment of play. Weilman, Leverenz, Baumgardner and Hamilton, all stars are likely to be put up at auction by Hickey, with infielders and outfield- CTS in demand. Agnew and Alex ander probably will be allowed to remain the teams catchers, but new men are desired for every other po- sition except center field, where Bert Shotton shines, and second base, where Derrill Pratt holds forth.
 The Detroit Tigers will aim for new infielders; the White Sox, now en tour with the Giants, for a third baseman to supplant the aging Harry Lord, and also for an outfielder or two, and the Red Sox for two in fielders. It is reported that Catcher Cady, Second baseman Yerkers and third baseman Gardner are to go, the McAleer- -Stahl trouble having some thing to do with their alleged sched- uled departure.
 The Maps want somebody to take the place of Olson at third base, it is said, and also another outfielder, although Joe Jackson, Graney, Ryan and Leibold are around. The pitch

could we'll be assigned for staging the
opera. In music for the orchestra
American composers have been similar-
" favored At the moment we can
only recollect one symphony by a liv-
ing American author. and that is a
meritorious work by Hadley which was
played two years ago by the New York
Symphony orchestra and probably by
other bands. 1t is almost ineonceiv-
able that the symphony would have
been put in rehearsal IL it had been
the work of foreigner. There may, of
course, be finer American symphonies
in existence and still unheard. But we
doubt it. For it seems unreasonable to
suppose that conductors should deliber-
ately choose the worst examples of
American composition for production.
And so we may go on down the scale
from symphonies to songs, and we shall
find about the same conditions exist
ing. In all branches of composition the
American composer has been accorded
hearings where foreign composers
would never have been tolerated at all.
And wherever the American composer
has made good as in the case of Mac
dowell, his works have remained in the
repertoire.

Cured ChiId's Deformity

Il should like to say word of en-
ccuragement to mothers whose children
are bow-legged. My eldest boy was
heavy child and when he was ? years old
had the worst bow legs l ever saw on any
child We did not like to put braces on
him About that time an aunt of mine
was visiting me and advised me to rub
the legs often and to gently straighten
them as much as possible when he was
lying down, reminding me that little
child sleeps great deal of the time and
all the time he is sleeping the bones are
growing. I took her advice and was
careful to see that his legs were kept as
straight as possible when he was lying
down. If | woke in the night | would
reach over to see If he was in the right
position, and / have no doubt that this
kept his legs straight so much that 1t
gave him the habit of lying i'm that POSI-
ton / kept up the treatment for year
and a half, or perhaps two years, and by
that time he began to outgrow the de-
formitx. When he was about s years old
he was strongly inclined when standing
to rest his foot on one side but he was old
enough then to correct the habit which
| think was caused by his bow legs. When
he was 12 or 10 he was all right Were
you to meet him now you would never
suspect he ever had bow legs.

Mr.. Arthur HI. Resented, well known
and popular Birmingham man, relates
some interesting experiences of his life
during three years residence in South
America, where he has been in the en-
ploy of the Argentine government as en-
tomologist.
Mr.. Rosenfeld is thoroughly yersed in
his chosen profession, capable and clever,
and talks about "bugology' just like we
every day people talk about food and
clothing. and the commonplace of life.
He's on intimate terms with all the
pesky insects and things and treats them
just like they We're intimate friends.
He knows their pedigree, whether their
ancestors were-nice, respectable specimens
and 'how they live on sl5 week." and
everything there is to know about them.
1t was just a little beyond me that
anybody would voluntarily choose en-
tomology as a profession. and so my first
question to Mr.. Rosenfeld was, How it
happened"
when l left Virginia some years ago."
Mr.. Rosenfeld told me, Il went down to
Louisiana, and there became interested in
the sugar business. As a child l had
liked fooling around with insects and try
ing to decipher their ways and means, and
when | went to Louisiana l found that
sugar cane was rather prolific of such for
eign matter insects being deadly to the
cultivation of the same, and so I began
my researches in this direction. Later
accepted a position from the Argentine.

chronological work, and for three years
have pursued my chosen profession down
there in the tropics
How do you go about such work?"
asked. a
1T is to me the most interesting thing
in the world Mr. Rosenfeld replied. THE
life history of the insect is studied and
the weak points discovered, and the best
way to control them is considered first.
This can be done either by natural or
artificial means. OF course the natural
way is the best The natural enemies,
parasites. can be developed by making
conditions such that these parasites will
multiply and destroy, or largely reduce
in numbers the injurious insect

ued back in 1855 and 1890 the cottony

Darken Your Gray
Hair
This Recipe Makes an Excellent Home
Made Preparation

1t is humiIating to go into drug
store and ask for hair dye or stain
or restorer, as it at once calls atten-
tion to fact you want to conceal
that your hair is turning gray. This
simple recipe relieves you of all such
humiliation and at the same time gives
you a cheap and better hair darkener
and scalp tonic than the store prepara-
tions. Procure from your druggist at
little cost one ounce of bay rum, a
quarter ounce of glycerine and small
box of Barbo Compound; then in your
own home dissolve the Barbo Com
pound in ounces of water and add the
other two ingredients and you will have
most effective hair darl<ener as well
as a good remedy for dandruff and
other scalp humors. 1t not only browns
the gray hair but acts as tonic to the
scalp, makes the hair soft and glossy
and is not sticky like many store prep
arations. 1t is to be applied once
week until the hair is darkened, then
every two weeks. Be sure your drug
gist gives you Barbo Compound--no
other ingredient will take its place.

He entertained at the Harris residence
on Highland avenue, where large adjoin-

a dancing party. An orchestra was sta
toned in the stair alcove and played
throughout the evening for the hop, dur
ing the final hours of which a plate course
was served. The punch bowl was sta
tened in the lower hall.
Pink carnations and roses decorated the
drawing room and dining room of the
residence, where most of the chairs were
removed to the veranda, a pleasant place
during intermissions, as its concrete balus-
trade and canvas furnished shelter.
