THE WIDOWS WAYS

have, for some reason, or many rea-
sons, been looked upon as most de-
sirable beings by men. One sees the
wisdom of widows extolled in poem
and prose, in song and jest. She is
considered with favor, perhaps, be-
cause she is wise to the ways of the
world, is not unfamiliar with the fail !
ings and needs of man, or is perhaps
rich in the coin of the realm as well
as in knowledge. Widows therefore,
are always more or less in the lime
light in comic operas and the pun
sters' department and they seem not 1
to object to publicity. But there is
one widow in Montana who out

DANDRUFF AND FALLING HAIR

and itching scalp for two or three
years. 1t was SO bad at times my
coat-collar would be covered so l was
ashamed to go in company. 1t itched
so my head was irritated and pimples
would come on my scalp. My hair
came out badly; 1t became thin and
dry, so dry that it seemed as though
there was no life in it.
Remedies failed to do me any good.
About year ago l saw the advertise
ment of Cuticura Soap and Ointment

treatment l discovered I was getting
better. l purchased some Cuticura

Colors of He!qoland.

Should any Helgolanders find their
way to this country during the war
they will be surprised to find com
bination of their national colors-red,
green and white-adorning the little

Suffrage societies. 1t is true that not
all of the $4,000 members of this or
ganization are demonstrative enough
to wear their gay buttons and ribbons
every day. But on public and process
sional occasions the red, green and
white favors make brave show, as
the Londoner in Hyde Park Sunday
