Many People Deceived by Coffee.

We like to defend our indulgencies

Finally, the folks stopped buying
coffee and brought home some Postum.
They made 1t right directions Oh

TAKES OFF DANDRUFF
HAIR STOPS FALLING
Girls! Try This! Makes Hair Thick,
Glossy, Fluffy, Beautiful-No
More Itching Scalp.

Within ten minutes after an appli-
cation of Danderine you cannot find a
single trace of dandruff or falling hair
and your scalp will not itch, but what
will please you most will be after a
few weeks use, when you see new
hair, fine and downy at first-yes-but
really new hair-growing all over the
scalp.
A little Danderine Immediately dou-
bles the beauty of your hair. No diff
ference how dull, faded, brittle and
scraggy, just moisten a cloth with
Danderine and carefully draw it
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time The effect is amaz-
ing-your hair will be light, fluffy and
wavy, and have an appearance of
abundance; an incompatible luster,
softness and luxuriance.
Get 25 cent bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine from any store, and prove
that your hair is as pretty and soft
as any-that 1t has been neglected or
injured by careless treatment-that's
all--you surely can have beautiful hair
and lots of 1t II you will just try lit
tie Danderine. Adv.

Opinion on "schooI Age"

In reply to many inquiries, Attor-
ney General Thompson has rendered
the following opinion on the question
as to age of children who can be COM
PEELED to attend school:
"The act provides that every par
emit, guardian or other person in the
State Of Tennessee, having charge or
control of any child between the ages
of eight and fourteen years, inclusive,
shall cause such child to be enrolled
In and attend some school, public,
private or parochial, for eighty con-
secutive days in length, for the full
term in each year in the county or
city in which the child may reside.
at is my opinion that the words
between the ages of eight and four
teen years, inclusive embrace the
entire priod of the cnild's eight and
fourteen years. To make my mean
ing clear, do not believe that par
emit could be compelled to force a
child into school at any time until he
reaches his eighth birthday. be-
lieve then that the parent can be re-
Quired under this act to keep the
child in school until it reaches its
fifteenth birthday, or during the entire
time when it reaches eight years of
age and while 1t is fourteen years of
age"

Recently big gray feline, rather
nice looking and of modest demeanor,

grounds in the midst of lively scrim-
mage. The girls stopped their game
and Miss Helen Irons, captain of the
team, picked up the cat. which she
called Nice, Tom," and fondled 1t
against her cheek.
Another girl took it away from her
and did the same thing, and then an
other and another. Among the rest
were the Misses Adele Zimmerman.
Elizabeth Bryson, Jessie and Florence
Griggs, Katherine Malan and Esther
Turnely.
Later a distressing and disfiguring
rash appeared upon the cheeks OF
each of the girls, and DR.. William b.
Jennings had to be called to attend
them. He said they had all become
affected by an annoying, but not dan
gerous skin ailment and that they
would be all right in a few days But
they've vowed not to trifie with cats
again.

FORGET STATUE AT SARATOGA
Monument Erected Years Ago on Fa.
nous Revolutionary Battle Ground
Overlooked for Years.

New York-Years ago, at the time
when the revolutionary centennial fer
vor had taken a strong hold upon the
country, a monument was erected on
the Saratoga battlefield. No sooner
was 1t completed than 1t was practical
ly forgotten. Recently came the graft
flying revival of interest in historic
objects, stimulated by patriotic socie-
ties. Also, there came the trolley and
the automobile, both of which served
to make the Saratoga battle monu-
ment and the historic ground surround
shocked to find the monument in sad
state of repair. 1t had become not
merely a monument commemorative
of great battle-the only one fought
on the soil of the United States that
Greasy deemed worthy of a place in
his list of the worlds decisive battles
but monument of public indiffer-
ence and neglect. This monument has
now been repaired and to some extent
remodeled. 1t has even been dedi-
Gated, step which the original build
ers evidently forgot all about.
The monument is admitted to be the
finest of its kind in the world. 1t Is
a tall hollow shaft, at the base of
which are four inches. Three of them
contain statues of Gates, Morgan and
Schuyler, three of the four generals
who fought In the battle. The fourth
niche, empty as England's rewards,
void as his own life, speaks more elo-
quently than words, more strongly
than condemnation, more pitifully
than tears, of mighty career blasted
