THREE PICTURES.

Dawn Is breaking in the far East,
Upon the wretched and the sad;
Now weary eyes can only feast
In terror: for the world seems mad.
All the dear, sweet beauties of old
Are shattered and blood stained
now:
War, cruel war, stains their soul,
With vengence written on their brow
Tiny babes and widowed mothers
Are left 20 perish, yes, TO die;
Gone To battle fathers, brothers,
Blood-shed! Blood shed! Ii the cry
The sun IL sinking In the West,
And eyes are dim and steps are slow;
All Is anguish and unrest
For dreadful war has struck q blow;
With food 80 high, makes times so
hard,
We fear IA famine, near to death:
lfumbly now we pray To God
Pray and plead with our every
breath,
For our stricken friends DER the way,
Then for our own We gricve and sigh:
Thousands are shattered every day,
Are We To perish too and dicY
God sits In Heaven ON His throne
And looks in sympathy down
He hears our very sigh and moan,
Yet on his brow, il there frownY
All. blood-shed l. an awful thing.
And war il cruel and not right:
Will the Angels forget to- singY
Never two wrongs did make right:
God holds the Earth within His hand:
Perhaps soon this old world will
cease,
All the vast waters and the land,
because, He loves our souls and
Peace. HOPE.

My hair came out in handfuls when combed it. It was dry and nfeless and the dandruti was SO thick 1t could be plainly seen.
 q used several different kinds of shampoo and soap but 1t got worse all the time for five or six months. When I had lost about half of my hair started using Cuticura Soap and Ointment In about six weeks my scalp stopped itching and in two or three months my hair began to come in new. My head is clear of dandruff now and new hair is coming in all the time" (SigneO Mrs. w k. Candlish, Dec. 10, 1912.

MOST POPULAR
 MAN IN FRANCE

Paris, Jan. 21-Updoubtedly the most popular man in France is Pres ident Raymond Poincaer who, one year ago, was elected by the Yer sailles Congress, notwithstanding, it is an open secret that the President and his present cabinet are some what at odds. When Poincare was elected he was considered the peo- ple's candidate. Old school poli- ticians, among whom were George CIemenceau, Emile Combes, Dubois of the Senate, DeShanel of the Chamber, Eugene Caillaux and AL exandcr Ribot, opposed him, it is said, because it was known that he would not consent to rlay a purely decorative part in the government. It is also stated that he would have bene defeated had the rank and file in the Senate and Chambr dared oppose ap avaIanche' of pnblic opin- ion.
 POincare's first cabinet was head ed by Aristide Briand. It is known that the views of the two men are almost identical. The second cabin ct headed by Louis Bar5hou, chang ed matters a little. Tie third and last, headed by Gaston DouDereUe, it is claimed is dominated by the politicians who oppose Poincare, and when Briand got up iu the Cham Der and criticised it's policies, peo- pie remarked that i5 Was almost as if the President himself was talking The President has little to do with naming his cabinet. Upon suggest ions Of Senate and House leaders he charges some one to form a cab met which is directly responsible to the Chamber. In the words Of cer- tain Freuchmen who understand American slang. the Chamber wish almost any sort of cabinet on pres ident in which case, is things are too bad, he can dissolve parliament or resign office.
