A WOMAN'S CHARM

Beautiful hair, fluffy, lustrous,
abundant and free from dandruff.
Is one of woman's greatest
charns-its her main delight
yet many who would be most at
tractive but for their streaked,
than and lifeless hair, think there
Is no remedy and that pretty hair
Is a gift of nature. Beautiful hair
really matter of care and at
tention. Partisan Sage, when rub
bed into the scalp and applied
to the hair, will work wonders
you will be surprised and de-
lighted with the first applica-
tion-Dot only will the hair ap-
pear abundant, soft, fluffy, radi-
ant with life, but really doubly
beautiful.
Partisan Sage supplies hair and
scalp needs. 1t surely removes
dandruff with one application
and cleanses the hair of all dirt
and excessive Oil. 1t is an mex
pensive, scientific tonic, and con-
tains nothing to injure the hair
or scalp. 1t can be secured from
Crown Drug Co. or at any drug
store.

But between Mother Eve and

woman ceased to be woman-the
equal and coordinate creation

human brooder, with neither the
eugenic choice nor the economic

Today Dick is going to break
the news of Jacks marriage to his
father and tell him that he has
promised to lend that twenty-five
hundred dollars to Jack to put
him in the business.
1t will be a great disappolnt-
ment to Dicks mother, as she
was determined that Jack should
marry money, as Dick did not.
The book and stationery bust
ness that Jacks father owns is
good one, and, with the added
money and the youthful ideas and
enthusiasm that Jack will bring
to 1t, cannot help but be very sue
cessful, yet | am sure that Moth
er Waverly will resent having to
give Jack enough salary to allow
him and his new little wife to live
comfortably.
Dick told me that he was going
to advise an entire change in the
methods In which the store was
run.
Dad Waverly Is not very well
and he should draw a salary and
have his hours shortened. Then
Jack should have a stated salary,
and at the end of the year the
profits should be divided on a
proper basis.
Aunt Mary tells me that she
never saw anything more beauti-
full in her life than the meeting
between Jack and his little wife.
Those children truly love each
other, Margie. and they will be
happy wherever they are. | have

The Rosary" by a blackface
funmaker? Rather out of the or
binary. you'll admit. Jolson
thought the audience was Josh
ing. He had made them scream
when he sat on the footlights and
sang, you Made Ne Love YOU"
and he had them yelling for more
when he sang "Mandalay" and

Dancing Around and one or
two other rag selections. But
1.-THE Rosary!
Now, IL All knew TO- certain

And he sang 1.-THE immortal
'Rosary'-sang IL in that deep,
rich voice of his, so sweetly and
alphabetically, that his charcoal
makeup was entirely lost sight
of.
And in the stiffness that fell
over the audience you could hear

AL Jolson made a hit with
his audience In Seattle Friday

burnt cork that he carries
through the play. Here's the way
a Seattle paper reported it:

The crowd out In front was

the storming of Torreon backed

who won this was undoubtedly

"Mollie has her mother" an
swered Aunt Mary somewhat
stiffly.

You must not talk like that,

extremely self-centered, selfish
old lady who has never been
much of mother to any of her
children.
1T is a wonder to me that Jack
and Dick are as decent as they
are, and Mollie, poor girl, has
had almost DO form her own NOR
ais, her own character and her
own social environment all by
herself. She Is now at the age
when she must have people who
love and sympathize with her.

next she does some foolish thing

Waverly. 1t seems to me she has
always been negative" She al
ways tells you what not to do, Z"
but never encourages you with

deals wholly In prohibition; prin-
ciples of conduct are never a
part of her advice.

questioner.
