For Beautiful Hair,
Nourish the Scalp

Dandruff must be removed and the
hair roots nourished to stop falling
hair and itching scalp. 1t is unneces-
sary to have thin, brittle, matted,
stringy or faded hair. No matter how
unsightly the hair, how badly 1t is
falling, or how much dandruff, Paris
ian Sage rubbed into the scalp is all
that is ever needed. The hair roots
are nourished and stimulated to grow
new hair, even all dandruff is removed
with one application, and itching scalp
and falling hair cease; the hair be-
comes soft, fluffy, abundant and radi-
ant with life and beauty.
Partisan Sage, a daintily perfumed
liquid, is one of the most pleasant, in
MIGRATING and refreshing hair ton
les known, yet perfectly harmless and
inexpensive. After the first application
you will be surprised and delighted
with Partisan Sage, for there is moth
ing that will so help to double your
present attractiveness as luxuriant,
glorious hair, and this tonic treatment
is all that can possibly be desired.
Be sure to get Partisan Sage from
Bowditch- Webster Co. or at any drug
or toilet counter. as there is no other
so effective.

State Horticultural A. K. Gardner
has received notice of the 9Th Annual
Apple show, which in connection with
the goth annual convention of the In
ternational Apple Shippers Associa-
ton will be held Aug. 5, 6 and Z, 1914,
at the Copley-Plaza Hotel, Boston.
This exhibit is open to the world
anyone is welcome, growers, dealers,
consumers, associations or selling
agencies. whether the fruit exhibited
is raised by them or not. 1t is not
necessary that the fruit exhibited be
raised by the person who exhibits it,
or that 1t csne from single orchard
or single owner 1t must, however
be exhibited as a product of the state
where 1t was actually raised.
In this exhibit Maine is in class 1,
group 1, along with the following
provinces and state: Ontario, Nova
Scotia, Canada, New Hampshire, Yer
mont, Massachusetts, Connecticut,
Rhode Island. New York, Michigan,
Wisconsin, and Minnesota. In this
class and group for the best exhibit
of commercial varieties as represent
ing the section or state from which it
comes, and to be composed of not
more than five summer, five fall, and
ten winter varieties, the following
prizes are offered: LIST prize, silver
medal and blue ribbon; I'd prize.
bronze medal and red ribbon; third
prize, bronze medal and white ribbon.
The purpose of the exhibit is to
show the development and condition
of the commercial varieties of the

fruit is not matured by August LIST
The question of maturity has nothing
| to do with the exhibit The associa :
ton desires to see how the crop has
developed up to that time, and an i'm
mature apple has just as great a
chance as matured apple. providing
it is up to the standard for its par
ticular section or state at that season
of the year.
The exhibits are expected to arrive
in Boston on Monday Aug. Sd, or not
later than Tuesday A. NJ, the 4th

La rena's Circus Today

Large crowds featured both after
noon and night performances of La
Tena's big three-ring wild animal cir
Gus at Maplewood fair grounds Thurs
day, says the Bangor News of Thurs
day, July 9. All who attended 1t SEEM
ed to be satisfied that the production
had been most meritorious and the
full value for their money had been
given them in the many varied and
interesting feature acts now with the
show.
Although this was the second show
at Bangor this year and two more are
billed here for later in the season we
are sure that no better reception will
be given to any circus than that
which was given to this show. If this
show should see fit to come back to
Bangor for future date there Is no
doubt that large attendance would
be given and the tents found all too
small to accommodate the large
crowds that would desire to attend
Among the many special acts of
merit a this show may be mentioned
Margarette's Nubian lions, among
which is large male lion that goes
through his part of the performance
ever watchful eyes constantly on his
mistress and on the door of the cage
as if he were hoping that one day
he may be free again. This den of
trained beasts is only one of the many
big features with the circus and
among others may be mentioned
Balchman's remarkably clever bears,
Captain Wesley's educated seals, Paul
Aliens highly trained elephants, and
Sylvestor's dancing ponies Among the
many performances on horseback is
the splendid novelty presented by
| Blanche Reed and Herman Griggs.
Another act of real merit was present
ed by the Albert Powell troupe of
distinguished wire artists, five in
number. who gave a very high grade
act upon the tight wire Over a hun
dred performers, the show carries 20
clowns alone. take part in show
which for variety and cleverness and
the price of admission, ranks high
among the wild animals shows of

the many sardine factories at Eastport

than at any time since the season

a more steady supply of fish from the

sized fish were received this week and
some on hand Wednesday were large
enough for stringing herring. but
making excellent mustard sardines.
The average sardine factory is now a
busy place and not many residents
are loafing who care to work DIT the
excellent wages usually had for this
kind of work.

AS the result of complaints which
have been received of thefts from
teams from the rural districts left
along Commercial street, between
Bridge and Oak streets while their
owners were on Water street, City
Marshal Colgan has taken action for
the purpose of preventing the NUS
ance. He has secured the cooperation
of a number of people along CONNER
cial street to watch that thoroughfare
when any teams are hitched along it,
and if anyone is caught taking articles
from them the thief will get all that
the law provides for such cases. The
thieves are not particular in their
fancy and have shown a disposition to
take anything that they IAN carry off,
from food to farming implements.
