 Hester took the place oi Ford for the Juneauites iu the ninth, and Conway succeeded Hester at lst.
 Immediately following the Doug Ias-Juneau game, the 14th Infantry team and the Skagway Athletics crossed bats, and the game which followed was to a great extent. the exact opposite of the one played by the teams from the Gastineau cities.
 It would have required a checkers counting machine to keep tabs on the errors, strikes, runs and other interesting features Of the game, and while at times the soldiers showed that they had a knowledge of it they Jailed to put that knowledge into actual practice, and although the home talent failed to show up in their usual good form, they were able to Iambast the ball whither and when they chose, for one, two and even three baggers, and when the game ended in the 7th innings the score stood g to 1.
 However, the soldiers from the Fourteenth are good sports, and en- joyed their outing, and took their defeat in a brave manner, even of Tering to accommodate the local aggregation with a chance to come back on the parade grounds at the post next sunday, which invitation will. in all likelihood, be accepted.

THE EASIEST WAY
TO END DAllDRUFF
Stop Falling Hair and Itching
Scalp.

There ID one sure way that never fails
to remove dandrun completely and that
is to dissolve it. This destroys 1t en-
tirely. To do this, just get about
ounces Of plain. ordinary liquid arvon;
apply 1t at ..ignt when retiring: use
enough to moisten the scalp and rub it
in gently with the finger tips.
By morning most. IL not all. of your
dandruff will be gene, and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve and entirely destroy, every single
sign and trace OF it. no matter how
much dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching and
digging of the scalp will stop instantly.
and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous.
glossy. silky and soft. and look and feel
hundred times better.
If you want to keep your hair looking
rich, do by all means get rid of dand-
rum, Tor nothing destroys the hair SO
quickly 1t rot only starves the hair and
makes it fall out. but It makes II
stringy, ctraggly. dull, dry. brittle and
lifeless. and everybody notices it. GU
can get liquid arvon at any drug store
1t is inexpensive, and four ounces is all
you will need. This simple remedy has
never been known to fail.-Adv.

public health service in q report to-
day. 1t had been estimated that be-
tween one and two. per cent of the
population were drug habitues. De-
claring that while this estimate is I'M
doubtedly too high, the report says
that the figures show the existence of
all-too-many habitua1 users of mar
cOtic drugs. The belief is expressed
also that the evils due to the improper
use of such drugs have been greatly
exaggerated.
The conclusions are based on data
furnished by the Tennessee authori-
ties. which, the report states, shows
that during the first six months of
the operation of the state anti-nar-
cotic law 1,4O3 permits were issued to
persons allowing them to purchase
narcotic drugs, and also on figures
giving the approximate number of av-
erage doses of habit-formfng drugs
imported into the United States in
1911 and 1912 being, respectively,
3.O40. 100000 and 2.308.700,000.
On the basis of the figures for the
years named, the report says, 1t would
appear that basing an estimate on the
average consumption of the drug
habitue in Tennessee, each district
would consume approximately 1000
doses each month, or $4,000 doses a
year.

PLENTY OF TURKEYS.
Lower Prices Promised for Christ.
mas Than at Thanksgiving.

Washington, Dec. 2.-Renewed ac-
tivity in the poultry markets, assur-
ing plentiful supply of fresh turkeys,
and fowl for the Christmas trade at
prices considerably lower than those
which prevailed at Thanksgiving, is
predicted by the department of agri-
culture.
The department found, it was ex-
planned that an entirely erroneous
impression" of it's quarantine orders
against shipments of livestock from
localities affected by the foot and
mouth disease had been given poultry
dealers and shippers which resulted in
heavy holding of Thanksgiving fowl.
To correct this it was announced that
there is no quarantine or restriction
on shipping dressed turkeys or other
poultry from infected districts in
states quarantined against the foot
and mouth disease and that no re-
striction had been imposed upon ship
ments of dressed poultry into quar-
antined states.

SETS A new RECORD.
Kansas C1tian Motors to Topeka IL
Hours and 20 Minutes.

In what is claimed to be record
time, w. F. Siegmund, Kansas City
manager Of the Nardyke and Marmon
Motor Car company, accompanied by
his mechanician and another passen-
ger, ran from Kansas City to Topeka
Tuesday morning in two hours and
twenty minutes. It is claimed that
mobile between these cities previously
was two hours and forty-fivc minutes.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
road was very rough in places, Mr..
Siegmund kept his car In high gear
throughout the trip with the excep-
let an obstreperous and unruly mule
be led out of the road. The distance
from Kansas City to Topeka is about
80 miles, and a speed Of IS miles an
hour was made repeatedly.
The party left Topeka this after
noon for Wichita and will go from
there to Tulsa, Oklahoma; FIT. Smith,
Arkansas; Springfield, Carthage and
Joplin. Missouri. and then back to
Kansas City.
The car that Mr. siegmund repre-
sentS is the same car that was used in
the test for the new substitute for
gasoline at the Indianapolis speed
way recently, and Mr.. Siegmund says
that the test was q success in every
way. The maximum speed was OBJ
tanned with the substitute, and, SO far
as has been discovered, it is no harder
on an engine than ordinary gasoline.
All automobile owners should be in
terested in this new gasoline substi-
tute because it is claimed that it can
be retailed for a cent and a half a
gallon and still allow a handsome
profit to the manufacturer Water is
one of its principal ingredients, and
it was first discovered by Portu-
guesa inventor living in Pennsylvania.
