LOCAL WOMAN NOW
A BIG ADVERTISER

When one of our woman GUS
toners recently bought five bottles
of Harmony Hair Beautifier to
give to her friends for Christmas
she started all by herself a mighty
big advertising campaign, because
not only does each one of the
women to whom she gave a bottle
of the Beautifier now consider it
indispensable for the proper care
of the hair, but each of them has
been the means of getting several
of her friends to use it. As a con-
sequence, if things keep on in this
way for few months longer, we
will be selling more of it than of
all other hair preparations CON-
bined. Sprinkle a little Harmony
Hair Beautifier on your hair each
time before brushing it. Contains
no oil; will not change color of
hair nor darken gray hair.
To keep hair and scalp dandruff-
free and clean, use Harmony Sham
poo. This pure liquid shampoo
gives an instantaneous rich lather
that Immediately penetrates to
every part of hair and scalp, insur-
ing a quick, thorough cleansing.
Washed off just as quickly, the en-
tire operation takes only few mo-
ments. Contains nothing that can
harm the hair; leaves no harsh
ness or stickiness-just sweet
cleanliness.
Both preparations come in odd
shaped, very ornamental bottles,
with sprinkler tops. Harmony Hair
Beautifer, ,$1.00. Harmony Sham
poo, 500. Both guaranteed to sat
isfy you in every way or your
money back. Sold only at the

the express companies OF this coun-
try, l would gladly expend fifty
million dollars in order to secure
the adoption of the amendment to
the parcel-post law which is now
pending in the Senate"
This startling statement was
made on the floor of the House a
few days ago by Congressman Da-
vid Lewis of Maryland, "the father
of the parcel post 1t was all the
more startling because it was ut
tered by "Davy" Lewis-as his
colleagues. lovingly call him whose
views are always couched in the
most conservative language and
who seems to have constitutional
antipathy for anything suggestive
of the sensational.
The amendment referred to by
Lewis was prepared by majority
of the Senate committee on post
Offices and post roads and attached
as rider to the post office appro-
priation bill. 1t strips the post
master general of the power he
now exercises to change parcel
post rates, zones and regulations,
and provides that the existing
rates and regulations shall CON-
tinue in force until Congress au-
thorizes change.
There is something fendishly
unfair about this attempt to shackle
this young giant who is willing
and ready to render great public
SERVICE" said Lewis.
He pointed out that Congress,
with it's more than five hundred
members, could not assume the re-
sponsibility for rate-making. That
was task which should be as
signed to the postmaster general
and the interstate commerce CON-
mission and their corps of expert
assistants.
WOULD DESTROY SYSTEM.
with the postmaster generals
hands tied and the express CON-
panies left free to make such
changes in their rates as they see
fit the latter can destroy the parcel
post" Lewis predicted. Then he
hurled his most effective bomb into
the camp of those who have been
attacking the postmaster general
and attempting to discredit the op-
erations of the parcel post.
Ho pointed out that under exist
ing law we were limited to three
hundred mile parcel post, and
called attention to the bitter criti-
cisms leveled at the postmaster
general because the parcel post
rates beyond the three hundred
mile limit were higher than the
express rates.
1.-THE reason for that" said he,
lis that the railroads haul express
packages for one-half what they
charge the government for hauling
parcel post packages. Up to the
three hundred mile limit the parcel
post rate is lower than the express
rate, and the government is doing
practically all of the business
within that limit. If we attempted
to compete with the express CON-
panies beyond that limit We would
bankrupt the treasury"
Lewis proceeded to point out
the remedy: Enact law oompell-
ing the railroads to haul parcel
post packages at the same rate
they now charge for express pack
ages. That will give us nation
wide parcel post, will result in an
immediate cut of 33 per cent in

to Newcastle.
Are you going to stand for
thatp" he shouted. A senator sug-
gested that the post office depart
nent for a number of years had
been carrying letter from New
York to San Francisco for the
same price charged for carrying
similar letter from New York to
Hoboken, and yet the heavens had
not caved in. But Bristow refused
to be satisfied with anything less
than the hearts blood of the post
master general.
OF course, no one will pretend
that there are no imperfections in
the existing parcel post system. 1t
is only little over year old, and
while the men who are managing
it for the government are earnest
and capable, they have undoubt-
edly made some mistakes. But
those mistakes are comparatively
unimportant and are being reme-
died as rapidly as discovered.
The great big important fact is
that Uncle Sam has demonstrated
his ability to handle the express
business of this country more eff
ciently and for less cost than the
old plundering express companies
could do the work. OF course, his
activities have been limited to
radius of three hundred miles from
a given point, but that has been
sufficient to enable him to demon
strate his superiority.
When Senator Ovens amend
ment becomes the law of the land
and the railroads are no longer
permitted to favor the express
companies, the efficiency and econ
omy of government management
will be still further emphasized.
ONE YEAR OF WILSON.
This is the fifty second weekly
report l have been enabled to place
before my constituents through
the courtesy of the editors of the
Democratic press of Colorado. For
year the party of Wilson and
Bryan has been in control of all
branches of the national govern
ment. The record of that twelve
months is written large on the
statute books of the nation, where
it may be known of all men. 1t
stands without parallel in the leg
islative history of our country.
For the first time in more than
fifty years the tariff has been re-
vised in the interests Of all the
people instead of the privileged
few.
A currency law has been enacted
which places the control of our
money system in the hands of the
people and takes it out of the
hands of the Morgans and the
Rockefellers.
Antitrust legislation with real
teeth in it has been framed under
the direction of the President and
will be passed before this session
of Congress adjourns.
A rural credits system designed
to give the farmer cheaper money
is being whipped into shape and
will soon be placed before the Sen
ate and House, where its SUCCESS
is already assured.
DOLLAR Diplomacy" has been
kicked out of the state department
and Uncle Sam has declined to be
either drummer or collector for
big business. The immediate re-
suit is that American credit was
