HOW TO Get RID OF
CHRONIC DANDRUFF

The only sure way to get perman-
emily rid Of either oily OF dry dandrun
is to remove the conditions that cause
it and then keep the hair and scalp
in a permanent. clean, healthy, vigor-
Gus state so dandruff will never re-
turn. This beats shampoos or head
washes which merely drive away dand-
ruff for a few days at most. A num-
ber of better druggists in this
vicinity are now strongly recommend
ing harmless, inexpensive and quick
acting preparation called Partisan
Sage that they say is guaranteed to
act directly on the cause of dandruh
and which already has become known
far and wide as a safe and efficient
treatment which cannot possibly in
jure hair or scalp.
Here is a test worth trying. Get a
package of Partisan Sage. Rub little
of IL into the scalp with the finger
tips and see for yourself how the
dandruff disappears, the hair stops
falling out. the itching vanishes. and
a new and vigorously healthy appear
ance comes over the hair Good
looking hair is half the battle in any
man or woman's personal appearance
and nothing hurts the hair more than
dandruff. Try a little Partisan Sage
and begin at once TO be rid OF il.

THE TIME TO SAVE.

In view of the terrible waste of men
and money in the bloody European
struggle, it behooves the people OF the
favored nations that are. enjoying
peace, to develop thrift as it has never
been developed before.
The principal job ahead OF the peo-
ple of the United States just now IS
to save money For 1875 years we nave
borrowed money from Europe. we
can't do so any longer. Europe isn't
going to have any money to lend.
When we wanted to build the Rock
Island railroad we borrowed the money
from Holland When we wanted to
develop the Anaconda mine we Dor
rowed from the same place. When we
wanted to improve the st. Louis &
San Francisco we borrowed from
France. For other railroads and other
improvements we borrowed from Eng
land and from Germany For the fu-
ture," says Golfers Weekly, III we
want to build more railroads or cleo
trio plants, or develop more mines, we
must supply the money from our own
pockets-or go without. The one
great necessity put upon us by the war
the biggest economic need in America
today, is to save money.

PLAYING WITH FIRE.

The governments OF Great BRITAIN
and the United States have differ.
ence of opinion which is apt to attract
more attention as the days 60 by. The
Wilson administration is standing
sponsor for the steamer Dacia, a for
mer German vessel bought by an Amer
lean and now on it's way to Europe
with a cargo of cotton for Germany.
Great Britain says the purchase Of an
interned ship is not proper and intends
to seize the Dacia as prize. It looks
very much as though the Wilson sd-
ministration had chip on its shoulder.
Why press the questionable right to
purchase interned ships at this time?
The people of this country do not want
war, especially with England and yet
wars have sometimes grown out of in
cidents just as trivial as the Dacia
case

HANDWRITING ON THE WALL.

The adoption OF an amendment 10
the constitution Of Iowa, making this
state prohibition territory will in all
probability be put up to the people two
years hence. The present legislature
will doubtless act favoraoly on the
amendment as was shown yesterday
bv the overwhelming vote in the SEN
ate, Much the same results can be
expected by the next legislature. And
there is little doubt in the minds of any
one that the people will vote in favor
of abolishing the liquor traffic. The
handwriting is on the wall and the
people who are engaged in the liquor
business should heed it and get into
some other business.
There is no use wasting time argu-
ing whether such action is right or
wrong. The thing for the liquor deal
er to do is to get in the clear as soon

Independence
BY DEAN &. WORCESTER
Former Secretary of the Interior Philippine Islands.

The preamble of the so-called Jones
bill, now pending before the senate,
contains the statement that lit is and
has always been the purpose of the
draw their sovereignty over the Phil
ippine Islands and to recognize their
independence as soon as stable gov
eminent can be established therein"
Unquestionably, it has been the hope
Of most thinking Americans that the
complex aggregation of Malayan Phil
ippine peoples might ultimately be
welded into one, possessed of a COM
mon language and capable of maintain
ing just and efficient representative
government. Should this hope be
realized and should this people desire
completely to sever it's relation with
the great government which had made
such happy result possible? 1t is al
most unthinkable that we should then
object, but the proposed provision
neither takes into account the will of
the governed nor truly states our atti-
tude. Should we be satisfied with a
stable monarchy or with the cruel and
arbitrary military oligarchy which
would probably develop were we pre-
maturely to withdraw and were for
eign interference long delayed? And
how could the stability of any govern
ment be determined in advance?
We cannot honorably leave the Phil
ippines until just and efficient repre-
sentative government is established
there and the people have shown rea-
sonable ability and willingness to in
diligently maintain it.
The desire for independence is far
from universal. The ignorant masses
entertain grotesquely absurd notions
concerning it and do not know what
they really want The men of intelli-
gence and means fear it, remembering
only too well what happened while
they had it during the days of the

the buyer? It seems to us reasonable
thai bale of hay might weigh fifty
pounds or 1t might weigh 200 pounds
without wronging anyone. II the dealer
misrepresents the weight of the bale
that is different matter. The efforts
that are being made to protect the pub.
lie against short weights and adultera'
tons are all right, but wouldn't 1T be
just as well not to try to carry it too
far. to give the buyer credit with hav-
ing little sense and judgment and
ability to protect himself.
Davenport Times: Perhaps in the
course of time, even some democrats
may discover that the lower tariff
theory is beautiful to contemplate but
an inconvenient thing to depend on
for a steady income.
Des Moines Capital: If you have in
mind any subject which has not been
legislated upon or about postal card
mentioning the matter to some men,
Der of the Iowa general assembly
would doubtless result in the introduce
ton of bill within not to exceed
twenty-four hours.
Sioux City Journal: Just to add
little variety to the various demands
upon public charity occasioned by the
war in Belgium, Poland, Palestine and
Serbia, the earthquake in Italy, the un-
employment and high cost of living
and hard winter in the United States
and the revolution in Mexico, the usual
spring floods are now getting ready to
devastate few fertile valleys.
Clinton Herald: It will be very easy
to develop long series of reprisals,
making the war even more fendish
than it is, if the British parliament
adopts Lord Beresford's proposal to
hang captured Germans who have
raided undefended cities. There
would be few to hang, for not a single
German raider has been captured SO
far, despite one coastal attack and half
dozen air raids. Nor would Germany
concede Beresford's contention that
the acts complained of constitute
piracy. Therefore, such course
would lead to immediate retaliation.
Europe would soon rival Mexico's
latest refinement, where General San.
tibana executed General CarranZa's
brother, and CarranZa announces that
he will execute Santibana's female re-
latives.
Europe is SO thoroughly subverted
by It's orgy Of blood that it would be
a slight step back to fifteenth century
methods, when prisoners and non.
combatants were put to the sword.
