on'tGrow Bald,
Young Man!
Take Care of Your Hair While
You Have Hair to Take
Care OF.

i It's a safe ten to one bet that
the young man who uses Partisan
Sage as an occasional hair dress
Ing will never grow bald.
There's reason, of course, and
it's a very good and sufficient
one.
Dandruff germs cause falling
hair and falling hair means thin
ner hair and in due time bald
ness.
Partisan Sage prevents bald
ness, by destroying the cause of
baldness-the little persistent
vociferous dandruff germ.
If you have dandruff or itching
scalp 1t means that dandruff
germs are sapping the vitality
from the roots of your hair. Get
rid of all hair troubles by using
Partisan Sage. 1t does not con-
tain poisonous sugar of lead or
any harmful ingredients. 1t is a
scientific preparation that abol-
fshes dandruff, stops falling hair
and scalp itch, and makes hair
grow lustrous and luxuriant.
Many young women as we'll as
men are growing bald and from
the same cause.-the dandruff
germ.
q Use delightful, refreshing Par
isian Sage; 1t nourishes the hair
roots, if the roots are not dead,
and brings to every user head
of glorious hair-radiant and fas-
cinating. Large bottle for so

BIBLICAL
MOTION
PICTURES

This afternoon at 8 o'clock will
occur at the Tacoma theater the
first presentation in this city of
the Kalem biblical motion picture
production "From the Manger to
the Cross This picture has
probably had the most remarkable
success of any picture ever dis
played and is accepted in the mo-
ton picture world as the most
elaborate and costly picture pro-
duction ever attempted. The fact
that the entire six reels, telling
the story of Christ from his birth
to his crucifixion, were photo
graphed upon the identical spots
in the Holy Land and in Egypt
given in history as the scenes of
the various incidents in the life
of the Saviour, lend to the pic
lures value not heretofore at
tending any picture story of bibli-
cal history.
The pictures will be at the Ia
coma theater until next Friday,
at 3 O'Clock each afternoon and
at 1880 and 8 o'clock at night.

blows tonight in the capitol rotunda.
1t appears that considerable anger
has existed on the governors part over
articles printed in a Portland. after
noon paper with which Perkins is con-
nected. Responsibility for these ar
ticles, the governor placed on the
shoulders Of Perkins.
Perkins had just entered the capitol
n was ~conversing with some sena-
tors, when Governor West passed by.
The governor overheard a remark
which he thought had beer addressed
to him by Perkins. The state execu-
tive demanded whether perkins had
spoken to him.
mo, sir, l did not responded Per-
kins.
The governor hen charged Perkins
with deliberately misrepresenting him
in his paper and that he did not want
any man who misrepresented him to
speak to him.
Perkins resented the governors
statements and heated words followed
which finally led to blows. In the
mix-up Perkins fell or was knocked
down and Governor West landed on
top of him. For a few moments the
pair thrashed around the floor, hit
ting and striking at each other. They
were pulled apart.
