JAS. DOLLS LACK
OF JUDGMENT
PROVES COSTLY
Brings Him Jail Sentence on
Wednesday on Illegal Pos
session Charge

That the unexpected is always hap
pening is shown by an experience
which came into the life of Deputy
Sheriff Marshall Pomerleau Wednes-
day forenoon. That officer went to a
house on Mt. Vernon avenue for the
purpose of warning out q man for the
non-payment of rent and was sur
prised on entering the house to find
four men seated at table, while on
the table was gallon jug of glass
containing the greater part of a gal
Ion of whiskey.
While the deputy's motive for visit
ing the place had been of an entirely
different nature from that of enforc-
ing the provisions of the prohibitory
law he lost no time in taking the jug
and its contents and also in arrestine
James Doll, the alleged owner of the
jug, and taking them over to the POI
lice station, where in the afternoon
Doll was arraigned on the charge OF
Illegal possession of Intoxicating
liquors.
Doll entered plea of not guilty but
the evidence in the case was so strong
that the court had no difficulty in find
ing him guilty and imposed a sentence
Of 500 and costs and so days Ia jail
and in default of payment of fine and
costs so days additional, from which
an appeal was taken and Doll was or
dered to furnish bonds in the sum OF
$500 for appearance at the January
term of the superior court.

Hair Made Beautiful

Beautiful hair, thick, fluffy, lustrous
and absolutely free from dandruff is
not SO much gift of nature as a
matter Of care and proper nourish-
ment. Hair is like a plant--it will
not grow healthy and beautiful unless
it has attention and proper nutriment.
Partisan Sage. daintily perfumed
and easily applied. tones up and in
vigorates the roots of the hair, and
furnishes the necessary nourishment
to not only save and heautify the hair,
but also stimulate it to grow long,
heavy, soft, fluffy and radiant with
life.
When used frequently and rubbed
into the scalp, it viii simply work
wonders. Just one application stops
itching head, removes dandruff and
cleanses the hair of all dust and excess

obtained from Bowditch- Webster Co.

less or unattractive hair--and as you
know, pretty hair more than anything
else, helps you to retain youthful ap-

High Jinks,'' from which the must
cal comedy that Arthur Hammerstein
will present at the Opera house on
evening, Sept. 80, takes it's name, is the
label of marvellous perfume, through
sniff of which the most bashhful
man is made as courageous as a lion,
the most careful ceases to think of
his reputation, and the most thought
full becomes gayly frivolous. Whenever
the bottle holding the magic drug is
uncorked, everybody on the stage be-
comes wildly hilarious, and this hilar-
ity reaches a climax at the close of
the second act when all the principals
and chorus break out in the mad
"Wriggle Wraggle Tangle." The play
proper is taken from an intricate
French farce. Mr.. Hammerstein prides
himself that it is kept clean through
cut the whole of its course, without
losing a particle of its sparkle. The
book and lyrics were written by Otto
Hauerbach. and the music was com
posed by Rudolf Friml. Prices: so. rs
