Lion Loose i'm West Vireinia

Keyser, W. Va.--Reports that a real African lion has been seen prowling about in the mountains of Mineral county for sometime are by no means exaggerated The lion escaped from circus that ex- hibited at Piedmont last summer and now that snow has fallen in the mountains many residents fear the lion will come into Keyser or some of the other towns to find more congenial quarters.
 The Rev.sJohn A. Shockey. who has been pastor of the Methodist church at Elh Garden for several years, met the lion faee to face the other day while walking along a lonely mountain road. Their meet ing was so sudden and unexpected that both preacher and beast in accord took to their heels.
 A crowd of young people from Keyser saw the lion several days later making efforts to get into a slaughter house about five miles from town. Many farmers have al med themselves and parties have been organized to get after the beast and kill 1t.

small strand at a time. This will
cleanse the hair of dust. dirt or excess
sive oil, and in just few moments
you have doubled the beauty of your
hair A delightful surprise awaits
those whose hair has been neglected

thin. Besides identifying the hair,
Danderine dissolves every particle of
dandruff; cleanses, purifies and in
vigorates the scalp, forever stopping
itching and falling hair but what will
please you most will be after few
weeks use, when you see new hair
fine and downy at first-yes-but
really new hair growing all over the
