sonal integrity were not TO be doubted.
Mr.. Daniels censurcd the Admiral for
having failed IL inform the Department

quired the company 10 examine seven

fore accepting the vessel. but on repre-
sensations of the company that all de-
fects had been removed Rear Admiral

In consideration of this Admiral Lit
tie accepted the vessel on behalf OF the
Government. Lieut.. Muses. thereupor
informed his superior officer In writing
Of his belief that because of tho defec-
tive work the batteries would fail. The
batteries failed two months after the
rnal trials.

WHY YOUP HAIR

1t is astonishing how much good
looking hair does toward producing
youthful appearance and still more
astonishing to realize how much the
attractiYeness of the hair is affected
by the care we give il.
Loving care and frequent attention
are as necessary to keep a woman's
hair beautiful and luXuriant as is the
tooth brush to keep teeth from de-
cay.
Every woman who values the beau
ty of her hair as she ought to do
should make it a never broken habit
to frequently apply little Partisan
Sage. rubbing it brskly into her
scalp with the finger tips
Partisan Sage is Natures modern
handmade to beautiful feminine hair.
1t is a simple. harmless compound of
wholesome, nutritious ingredients
that make an ideal lotion for nourish-
ing both hair and scalp. 1t feeds
and builds up the delicate hair and
scalp structures making the hair
soft, lustrous, brilliant and easy to
dress and arrange. G. R. Fogg and
many other of our best druggists sell
Partisan Sage and gladly recommend
it's use. 2w48
