Partisan Sage Makes Thin
Life1ess Hair Soft and
Abundant.

Beautiful hair, thick, soft, fluffy, lus-
trous, and free from dandruff, is one of
woman's greatest charms, yet so many

needed-it acts like magic. Try it to
night-you will really be surprised with
the result. Not only will the hair become
soft, fluffy, radiant with life and really
doubly beautiful, but all dandruff dis
appears, falling hair and itching scalp
cease-your head feels fine.

For an organization which has been
in existence but a few months, the
Middlebury board of trade is certainly
doing well. Two such splendidly rep
resentative gatherings as that town
has had within about a month, with
noted speakers each time, is an achieve
ment of which every member OF the
board-and for that matter every citi-
zen of the village-ought to be proud.
President Thomas said upon accepting
the office that he had no intention of
being a mere figurehead, and the sue
cess of these dinners proves he meant
what he said. The way the board has
taken hold of this cleanup campaign,
too, shows what can be done when the
citizens unite to push project for the
betterment of the town. The Middle.
bury board of trade is justifying its ex'
istence, all right. -Vergennes Enter

The secretary of the Vermont Safe
board of health, DR.. Dalton, finds the
State " free of epidemics. Inter-
pretcd in the commonly accepted
sense, that assertion means that the
State is far better off than usual as re-
CARDS contagious disease and that the
situation is altogether encouraging.
Such being the Interpretation, the
statement of DR.. Dalton ought to be
given wide publication in view of the
fact that Vermont is just about to en-
ter upon the vacation season when a
great many people from other States
are likely to come among the Green
Mountains for rest and recreation. A
comparatively clean bill OF health
like that flor to all intents and pur-
poses it is clean bill of healthy would
do the State vast amount of good in
asmuch as it would prove a strong
guarantee that people who come into
the State during the months next sue.
ceeding need have little fear of con-
tracing contagious disease of any
sort. Such assurance added to Yer.
mont's known reputation for generally
healthful conditions will prove the de-
Gliding factor that will cause many
more people to come to Vermont rather
than to go to some other recreation
field where the conditions were not Sc
certain. And Vermont is capable Of
taking care of many more people a
some period of the summer than it hal
taken care of in seasons past. Fol
that reason, DR.. Dalton's report il
worthy of being widely used.-Barr'

FEATHERS AND EGosHELLs.


Twelve dozen chickens are killed and
dressed every Saturday by the poultry
class at the Kansas experiment sta
ton. This certainly beats the lessons
on How to Dress Poultry by MaiP
issued by the correspondence school.
Yes, practical work tells in every de-
partment of life.
Many do not realize what q hard
worker the hen is. From dawn to
twilight she is on the go. and all for
food to keep up her body and manu-
facture her product If a dairy cow
does not get suitable and sufficient
feed she does not produce quantity
and quality in milk. and just 50 with
the hard working hen-she can't make
something out of nothing.
The latest convert to poultry culture
is Charles NJ. Schwab. the steel mag
nate. He is building Il concrete. steam
heated, electrically lighted poultry
plant on his farm ut Loretto, Pa. We
remind him that it takes good strains,
great pains. good grains and FURNISHED
brains, as well as Doodle. to get there
with cockadoode.
The CimiX lectularius. commonly
known as the bedbug. alias the GRIM
son rambler, in slang the B fat. is
branded transmitter of tuberculosis
and other contagious diseases. and hui
mans afflicted with 'em should dispose
of them quickly without a trial by
| jury. The Dermanyssus gallinae. the
red mite or bedbug of the hen tribe, as
it crawls from hen to hen. also is a
carrier of microbes and often spreads
disease whose presence is hard TO ex-
plain.
The old story that the cackling of
geese saved Rome is old evidence of
their watchdog quality. A stranger, q
strange dog or a hawk comes in sight
and without fail the old gander and
his whole crowd start to honk. They
have been known to sound the fire
alarm and to sound the Alamo wheI
chicken thieves appeared, and such
rubberneck cops are good to have
around.
The farmer is very careful that the
hog, sheep or beef he sells is in fine
condition for market. but he seldom
prepares his poultry for sale and Otter
just grabs the chickens off the roost a
night and starts with them for market
the next day before daylight. This
slipshod way Of doing business has lee
to the establishment of great fatten
ing plants near Chicago, where thu
farmers thin chickens are finished
and sold at big profit that goes int
the other fellows pocket.

BY POLICE RAIDERS.

Gen. Cipriano Castro. former dictator
of Venezuela. whose whereabouts had
unknown for several months, was
located here today.
A party of detectives last night
raided a hotel occupied almost solely
by Venezuelans. and found there 40, 600
rounds of ammunition and a few re-
volvers. This discovery led to a fur
ther raid early today. The police pro-
to a house which had been oc-
cupied for several months by Gen. Car
melo Castro, a brother of the former
president. Armed with a search war
rant, they Wen through the house.
Among the effects of the occupants
they found only one revolver n a
few cartridges.
On entering one of the rooms. how
ever, they found it occupied by Cen
eral Castro himself. The one time die
tator was extremely indignant over the
procedure Of the police, whose meth
DDS he denounced as harsh and unnec-
essary. 1t is stated that Sir George
lie Hunte, the governor, cabled to Lon
don today for instructions from the
foreign office regarding Castro. The
police disclaim any intention of inter
fering with the generals liberty, but
among the Venezuelan residents there
is great excitement in regard to pos
sible developments.
