AS to the candidacy of'Judgc Lee,
it is evident that he is backed by a
class of politicians and not by the
people and that the welfare of the
state did not inspire his candidacy. "
would not be difficult thing tolocate
the, particular section of the state
where his candidacy had its origin
and, perhaps, less difficult to- mention
the, names of the politicians :instru-
mental in bringing him out. We pre-
dict that Ysome of these people active
in developing the candidacy of Judge
Lee will later be called upon to ex-
plain their motives for jeopardizing
the success of the republican party
at the November election.

John w. Rowley is basing his can
didacy, on the one issue that it was a
mistake. for the legislature to pass
the law providing for the extension
OF the capitol grounds in Des Moines.
1t is too small ain issue to rest the can
'didacy of a. great office like that OF
executive of the state of Iowa upon,
Mr.. Rpwley, will. discover. before long
that he could have served his state to
better advantage by permitting the
nomination of Governor Clarke for a
second term without opposition. Gov;

 For many years common bold sul- phur has occupied a secure position in the practice of dermatology and cutaneous affections by reason of its parasite destroying property.

SIMPLE WAY TO
 END DANDRUFF
Stop Falling Hair and Itching
 Scalp.

There is one sure way that has never failed to remove dandruf at once, and that is to dissolve 1t, then you destroy 1t entirely. To do this, just get about four ounces of plain, common liquid arvon from any drug store (this is all you will need), ap- ply it at night when retiring; use enough to noisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips.
 By morning, most if not all, of your dandruff will be gone and three or four more applications will complete ly dissolve, and entirely destroy. every single sign and trace of it, no matter how much dandruff you may have.
 You will find ali itching and digging of the scalp will stop instantly and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better.
 If you value your hair, you should get rid of dandruff at once, for noth- ing destroys the hair so quickly. Ii not only starves the hair and makes 1t fall out, but it makes it stringy straggly, dull, dry, brittle and hfeless and everybody notices it.

four minutes from the time the gen.
 eral alarm was turned in. For a demonstration of the use of
 chemical, Chief Stanton had a pack ing box of excelsior set on fire in the
 square and then promptly squelched by a stream of chemical from Company No 8.
 About this time Chief Stanton staged his little surprise, when a flash of red fire was set off in the attic or fourth story of the city hall, a group of women up there raised a cry for help, end stuck their heads out Of the win dows.
 The extension ladder from the aerial truck was quickly shot up to the win dows and William Rochelle and Fred Woods of Truck No. 1 led the way to the rescue.

RECALLS ACTIVE SERVICE
 OF THE OLD TORRENT
Mrs. Lucy A. Forbes Saw the old Engine Work on Union Square When Girl.

Mrs. Lucy A. Forbes of ss Union street. who is now S3 years of age, distinctly remembers the time, years ago, when the old Torrent hand fire engine was in active service, One night that made a deep impression on Mrs. Forbes and which she has el- ways remembered during the years that have passed by was the night of fire which destroyed one of her neighbours houses,
 In those days there was no fire fight ing apparatus save the old Torrent, which at one time was housed in a building at the corner of Broadway and Bath street, and as a protection against fire each family had one or more deep leather buckets with which to carry water from the pump to the Torrent hand engine and which they hung in the front hall ready fer in stant use. Each bucket was marked in such a way that it would be re- turned to the owner after the fire was out or bad burned itself cut, as it often did, for in these days when a house caught fire it generally burned to the ground.
 It was over seventy years ago. about the year 1S40. that in the dead ef night the startling cry of 'Firei Fire!" was heard along Union street and Allen street, now Broadway, awaking Mrs. Forbes, who was then about 8 years
 
 fly and it was not long befare the men of the house and even the women were frantically carrying the leather buckets from the town pump to the old Torrent in an effort to subdue the angry flames. The town pump was in front of the present city hall and the old Torrent on that night stood in almost the identical spot that it stood during the fire demonstration on Tuesday forenoon.
 In those days Union square present ed a very different appearance than it does now. Where the chapel of the Central Baptist church now stands was one of the old fashioned village smithies and in front of the present city hall shaded by two tall button wood trees stood the town pump. The town pump was about eight feet high and had long handle by the aid of which the water was pumped. Mrs. Forbes was born in Poquetanuck, but her early life was passed in the vii cinity of Union square in, as she re- members it, the old Brown house" Opposite to them lived Daniel War ren who owned considerable land and who took up the calling of farmer travelling back and forth from his farms to his house on Union square.

Shooting and Hitting

Only the shots that hit win battles.
 The same thing is true in ad- vertiSing. Only the advertising that reaches possible buyers is worth while.
 Because they can concentrate their shots and score a larger proportion of hits, manufactur- CTS are coming to use the daily newspapers more and more.
 They reach consumers direct. They gain the friendship of the local dealers.
 Every dollar they spend counts definitely.
 They can see the results and can tell just exactly when and how they hit.
 To sell goods in the modern way is to advertise in the news papers!
 Perhaps you would like some suggestions. Write to the Bu- reau of Advertising, American Newspaper Publishers Associa- ton, World Building, New York. Booklet on request.
