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

1t is humlating to go into drug
store and ask for a hair dye or stain
or restorer. as it at once calls atten-
tion to a 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,
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
a most effective hair darkener as well
as a good remedy for dandruff and
other scalp humors. 1t not only browns
the grays1iair but acts as a 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.

Two Drop From the Ranks.
Colonel Craft Worst
for Wear

Belair. Md, February 22-The ION Il
Washington suffragist pilgrims reached
here late this afternoon after IA mile
tramp from Havre De Grace. Although
they found better roads today than those
which they iourneyed over yesterday, a
steady rain poured upon them for several
hours.
At Churchville, where the army stopped
for dinner, a council was held and Col
Ida Craft was advised to turn back. to
her home in Brooklyn, N. Y. But de-
spite the telling effect upon her of the
hardships she has endured the colonel
refused to drop out There were two de-
serters, however, who are thought to have
gone to Baltimore by train.
At council before supper tonight the
question was put whether the army SHOULD
attempt tomorrow to cover the entire dis
tance of q miles between here and Bal
timore BY a majority of one vote il
was decided to stop tomorrow night al
Oyerea, five miles from Baltimore. =
While General Jones expressed ad-
miIation for George Washington and
thought his mother would have made a
good suffragist she decided against a for

The idea of Mr.. Exum is that such an
east and west boulevard will be a most
desirable asset for the City and will rap
idly enhance the properties of every one
along THE route. He has taken the matter
up with some citizens who will be af-
fected and has received assurances from
them that the boulevard is timely and
should be authorized.
Il intend to keep right in behind this
boulevard proposition" said Mr.. Exum.
II am sure that 1t is good move, and
the proposal fully. There can be little
If any objection to the proposed boue-
ward, as it will greatly enhance prop
erty values, and will more than take
care of all assessments for the improve
ments. And such boulevard would be
one of the greatest assets that this city
could secure.

"The only condition to this is tha'

Never, no never, employ soaps or MIX

"a dependable and really delightful
shampoo mixture can be made by dis
solving a teaspoonful of canthrox in a
cup of hot water. This is enough for q

dries evenly and quickly and regains its

cial agent for the department of justice.
His offices are in Chicago.

the department of justice, secured all
the evidence for the government upon
which the recent contempt case was in
stituted. He WILL therefore. be the prin-
ciple witness against the grocers in the
forthcoming grocers' case. Mr.. Clabaugh
is well known in Birmingham where he
resided for many years, He is a brother
of Samuel f. Clabaugh editor of the Tus-
caloosa News.
The case against the groeers filed a
few days ago is not expected to be post
poned it is said The government is
anxious to get the situation arranged as
speedily as possible The grocers will be
defended by Gen. Luke Wright of
Memphis and Carruthers Ewing, the wide-
ly known Tennessee attorney.

TECHNICAL RULINGS
BY ATTORNEY GENERAL

Pierre, s. ID, June 24.---Attorney
General Johnson, replying to Judge
Arneson Of Hamlin county, holds that
under the new law a county judge may
engage I'm any law practice except in
cases that are assigned TO his court or
which may be appealed therefroIn.
To an inquiry by Food and Drug
Commissioner Frary, the attorney gem
eraI holds that the drug and food de-
partment is bound only by regulations
made by the department of agriculture,
prior 10 the passage of the South Da-
kota law of 1909, and is not bound by
regulations made by the federal au-
| thOrities since that date. ~
To County Attorney Knight of San
born county, the attorney general rules
that it is wholly within the discretion
of the county commissioners whether
additional clerical aid shall be Afforded

in providing the special information
lrequired by the law OF 1913 to be fur
nished to tax commissioners relating to
the valuation or lands; provided the
whole sum paid for clerk hire must
not exceed the fees collected by the
| office.
owing to the, referendum OF the good
roads law OF 1911 in many counties
and townships no road tax was levied
for the year 1912. An act OF the last
session attempted TO remedy this by
providing that the tax for 1912 should
be extended at h same time as the
tax for 1913, but did not provide
whether 1t should be computed upon
the valuation for 1912 or 1913. The att
torney general holds that Ii should be
extended upon the 1912 valuation.
There is an apparent conflict in sew
eral sections OF the school Jaw per-
tanning to the hours during which the
polls must be kept pen in independent
districts. The attorney general rules
that the act OF 1911 governs and that
the polls must be kept open from 400
until S o'clock in the afternoon.
