Gifted with strong mental attain
ments, Mrs. Henry c. Chessman, wife
of the prominent Richmond Justice of
the Peace, could not be prevailed upon
to endorse anything she was'not more
than ordinarily familiar with.
Regarding Glover's Hairgro, Mrs.
Chessman offers the following for the
benefit of Richmond ladies:
my scalp itched constantly and as
I was given to understand by medical
advisers. a slight eczemaic condition
was the cause. A most severe case
Of dandruff resulted and everything
tried seemed to irritate rather than
relieve. l had heard 50 much Of Clio
ver's Hairgro I decided to try 1t. The
result has been marvellous and from
my personal experience will say that
Glover's Hairgro will cure dandrun
and eczema"
So many people were under the i'm
preston that "Hairgro" was for bald
heads only.
The Hairgro man will be glad to
explain the virtues of Hairgro at This

BIG GRAIN cARGoEs

NEW YORK, Sept 1e.-The largest
cargoes of grain in the history of this
port will begin to leave New York for
Europe this week. With record yield
in Canada, which will be handled
largely through New York, and in
creasing demand in Europe for grain,
the outlook is pleasing to the steam
ship men. The harbor is lined with
freighters waiting for grain cargoes.
According to Lloyd B. Sanderson, gen.
eral agent Of the Pacific Steam, Royal
Mail and Wilson lines, the crops in
India are poor, and Europe will be
obliged to depend chiefly on the Unit
ed States and Canada for her supply
Of wheat and oats

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-Many del egations have appeared before the House Committee on Foreign Affairs to urge that the committee recon mend an embargo upon the exporta tion of war supplies from the Unit. ed States to the belligerent coun' tries.
 Many peace advocates insist that supplies should not be sent from the United States to the warning nations. Committees of German-American so- cieties are also active as the Ger mans cannot secure supplies here while the French, British and Rus. sians are placing orders for millions of dollars worth of war munitions, including thousands of stands of small arms besides heavy siege guns sent to Russia.

SCOTT C0NFERS WITH GEN. VILLA
Chief of Staff of U. s. Army Trying To Settle Border Troubles
 May Succeed.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-Gen. Hugh L. Scott, chief of staff of the United States army, and Gen. Villa. con- mander of the rebel Mexican troops, held long conference on the bridge across the Rio Grande river at the boundary line. The two officers hope to arrange for the withdrawal of the fighting Mexican troops from near the border, as many Americans have been hit as a result of bullets crossing the line into Texas and Arizona.
 Gen. Hill, the Carranza commander at Naco, has already agreed to the request and will withdraw his forces from near the border, provided the Villa troops do likewise. Gen. May torena, who commands the Villa troops, has not agreed to the condi- tions, but it is hoped through Gen. Villa to force him to do so.
 It is hoped that Gems. Scott and Villa will be able to settle all border troubles at the present conference.
