FALLING HAIR OR ITCHING SCALP
Surley Cease When You Use Partisan
Sages Makes Your Hair Soft
and Fluffy

Now that Partisan Saga scientific
preparation that supplies every hair
and scalp need-can be had at any
drug counter or from S. L. Willis, it
is certainly needless to have thin,
brittle, matted, stringy or faded hair.
No matter how unsightly your hair,
how badly it is falling, or how much
dandruff, Partisan Sage is all that is
needed. Every trace of dandruff is
removed with one application, the hair
roots are nourished and stimulated to
grow new hair, itching scalp and fall
ing hair cease-your hair becomes
soft, fluffy, and abundant and radiant
with life and beauty.
Partisan Sage is surely one of the
most invigorating and refreshing hair
tonics known. 1t is easily used at
home-not expensive ,and even one ap-
plication proves it's goodness. 1879

HAN you imagine anything more
~ simple, more novel, or more chic
than this dress Of brown broadcloth
and sand-colored crepe de chine, for
young girl? If you can, hasten to
reduce your imaginings to concrete
form, for you have thought out some
thing for which womankind is always
in waiting. This is one Of several new
models launched for the maid from
sixteen to twenty-or more.
The waist. of crepe is long-sleeved
and high-necked, and could hardly be
palmer The high collar has wings
faced with brown, and brown buttons,
down the front, seem to show a single
mindedness of purpose to be only use
full. Narrow cuffs bound with brown
finish the long sleeves. Altogether the
waist seems to bespeak lack Of self
consciousness in the wearer; it is so
devoid of fussiness.
The skirt is moderately full, smartly
short and slightly flaring. The skele-
ton bodice is plain, with bound edges,
and the belt is made of the same fab
ric as the dress. The waist line is a
little higher than the normal and a

language which, while it had its in
alienable poetic note, was yet the
apotheosis of the direct and powerful
After the North Sea Conference in
1903, he wrote to the editor of the
Daily Telegraph an opinion of the fate
that would be Germany's if the Kaiser
should attempt to drain the public
treasury for a huge military under
taking. The recent statement that the
Emperor is about to urge the Reich
stag to increase the national debt by
an additional billion and a quarter
gives an opportuneness to what Mere
dith wrote:
eve should be grateful to the Ger
mans for their crusty candour in tell
ing us of their designs upon us. They
stir a somnolent people, and, without
stopping to regard them as enemies
we can accept them as urgently stim-
ulating rivals, whose aim is to be the
first of the world-powers, chiefly at our
expense. The Kaiser, an estimable
gentleman, but not yet a fully tried
sovereign, has drawn in deep breath of
briny air, and would give it out in
warships. Germany, once foremost
among the nations for intellectual
achievements, now spouts Pan-Germ-
anism over Europe, and seeks to COM
mand the North Sea- For our part
we have only to take the warning they
give us, and be armed, stationed, and
alert. That is the way to preserve
peace For Pan-Germanism chal-
lenges many foes, and a Power ambiti-
Gus to be preponderant in great Navy
as well as a great Army will find its
adversary within, besides those that
press around it. A slumbering Eng
land will offer it the chance it Graves
before the inevitable financial strain
brings it to the ground. A watchful
England may look on calmly for that
certain issue"
At this very moment, we seem to be
just at the point where demonstra-
tion is to be made as to whether Eng
land has taken warning ito be armed,
stationed, and alert" and as to wheth-
er the financial strain within Germany

fairly wide belt is supported by slides
of the fabric which hold it securely.
The side seams are prevented from
sagging by stitched-on straps of the
material, the neat machine stitching
and accurately placed straps adding
an elegant finish. Buttons like those
at the front of the bodice, but smaller,
finish the cuffs and extend above them
on the sleeve for the space of six
inches
The fascinating feature in the COM
position of this unusual little gown Is,
Of course, the unexpectedly real pock-
cts at each side of the front. They
are there, but for just what purpose,
beyond that Of furnishing a novelty in
design, remains to be seen.
There are curved, diagonal slits

faultlessly tailored and made of an
excellent quality of broadcloth The
waist, although SO plain, is entirely up
to date and depends upon the crepe of
which it is made, as much as upon de-
sign and execution, for its elegance.

POOR SECURITIES

Individuals and banking firms in
making loans upon real estate scrut-
inize with a cold and accurate eye
the land offered as security. 1t is the
established custom to make no loan
in excess of forty or fifty per cent
of the actual market value of the land.
The actual market value is counted
as the value which the land would
bring in open market at the time the
loan is made, not a fictitious value
which the land may acquire after long
years and after great sums have been
expended on its Improvement
Public business can not afford to
be more lax or more generous or more
sentimental than private business
When public funds are to be loaned,
the securities should be taken at their
present and actual value, not at the
value which some dreamer, speculator,
promoter, or designing and interested
person names as the proper figure.
Information is pretty well distribut-
ed nowadays as to the value of logged
off lands Until clearing of stumps
can be more cheaply done than at pres
ent it may be reckoned that the cost
of putting stump land into cultivation
will range from fifty dollars per acre
up to figure that is frankly prohibi-
tive to agriculturists Land that neces-
states an outlay of fifty or more dol
lars to the acre before it can be farm
ed is considered worth about ten doll
lars an acre as a maximum figure,
once the timber has been cut
If Idaho can afford to lend on ten
dollar land at the rate of fifty or even
200 dollars per acre, public business
is on an amazingly independent and
ideal basis
What if in ten or fifteen years from
now, after great development, the log
ged-eff lands are worth $3.50 or $500
per acre? That is quite beside the
point The loan at the present time
should be based on the present, not
the future and problematical value.
Idaho has no moral or constitutional |
right to trade off her inheritance for
mess of pottage.
The daily star-mirror., 1915-02-16
WHY BOTHER?

What puzzles us is why some peo-
pie want to call a constitutional con-
vention to change the constitution we
have got when they can go right along
violating with impunity the one we
have and gain their selfish ends in
spite of the specific provisions against
the courses they pursue.
The daily star-mirror., 1915-02-16
LOGGED-OFF LANDS NOT GILT
EDGE SECURITIES

The soil of much timber land is Sc
thin as to be practically worthless for
agricultural purposes. 1t is easy
enough to spend 5000 an acre clearing
land only to find that it's actual COM
mercial value is something like $50
an acre. If the state lends state funds
in excess of thirty dollars an acre on
cut-over lands, even when those are
of the best, it is misusing public
moneys.
Our legislature should not be taken
in by willy schemes to employ lot Of
state money in improbable land de-
velopment and promotion schemes.
