GUY STANDINGS HAIR
All Other Aids Fail for the Pom
padcur, So He Takes to
Motor Boating.

II at first you don't succeed, try, try
again.
\ time worn motto. but a very practi-
cal one, nevertheless. II is only by per-
sistent effort that the difficult things in
life are attained. Guy Standing has Tor
the last two years been trying 10 cuiu-
vate a real debonair pompadour. and no"
he has almost reached the goal OF success.
There is only one trouble with his present
tonsorial effect-the part on the right S.de
has refused TO become fully pompadoured.
But Mr.. Standing believes that after ne
has followed olr the advice OF ie"
more friends and enjoyed the clipping and
trimming of few more French BARRIERS
the entire pomp appearance will be
achieved.
At first. Standing practised running q
couple Of miles every morning against the
wind. Pedestrians and early travellers
along the road near his country home in
England decided that ne must be an en-
thusiastic athlete training for the Olyln-
pic marathon. and many OF the villagers
set their clocks by the time Standing
passed a certain hedge post. This run
ming whetted his appetite and put him IN
ft trim for the days work. but 1t did not
achieve such good results for the pompa-
dour. so he quit.
Then he took 10 automobile racing II
order 10 encourage his stubborn locks u
stay combed back. This sport proved very
exhilarating and exciting for Standing. Ht
travelled over all the public highways
within a forty-mile radius OF his home.
and then started In 10 do" the alan
doned paths of traffic, where only the
patient equestrian had gone before. Hut
he forgot to confine his racing TO the
regulation circular track. After paying
several fines for speeding and falling to
get very pronounced results with mis- POM
padour he sold his car and racked ms
brain for new schemes.
An American who hsppene1 10 be WIS.,

that American HAIR tonic was not the

A few months later he read an article

nearly four weeks. but the troublesome

this county they are scoffing az offers
for the purchase OF their wheat.
Their refusal to sell has had a ten

The continued rise in the Chicago
