NOT A PARTICLE
Of DANDRUFF OR
A FALLING HAIR
SAVE YOUR HAIR! DOUBLE IT'S
BEAUTY IN JUST A FEW MO-
MENTS.
25-CENT aDANDERINE" MAKES
HAIR THICK, GLOSSY, wAvY
AND BEAUTIFUL,

Within ten minutes after an appli-
cation of Danderine you can not find
q single trace of dandruff or falling
hair and your scalp will not itch, but
what will please you most will be
after few weeks use, when you see
new hair, fine and down at first
yes-but really new hair-growing
all over the scalp.
Danderine is to the hair what fresh
showers Of rain and sunshine are to
vegetation. 1t goes right to the roots,
invigorates and strengthens them.
Its exhilarating, stimulating and life
producing properties cause the hair
to grow long, strong and beautiful.
A little Danderine Immediately
doubles the beauty of your hair. No
difference how dull, faded, brittle and
scraggy, just moisten a cloth with
Danderine and carefully draw il
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time. The effect is amaz-
ing-your hair vii be light, fluffy and
wavy, and have an appearance Of
abundance; an Incompatible lustre
softness and luxuriance.
Get 25-cent bottle Of Knowlton'.
Danderine from any drug store OF
toilet counter, and prove that your
hair is az pretty and soft as any
that it has been neglected or injured
by careless treatment-that's all
you surely can have beautiful hail
and lots Of it if you will just try !

HOW DID CHARLEY DENEEN AND
ROY WEST GET RICH?

Roy o. West, Charles S. Deneen
and other millionaire politicians who
built up their fortunes out of playing
the game of politics, are asked by
William Hale Thompson the ques-
ton:
Where did you get it?"
Thompson said to a Day Book re-
porter today that West, Deneen and
others now raising the issue of Lori.
merism, got their millions through
playing politics with Billy Lorimer.
Some of the evidence put in by at
torneys for LoTimer when the U. S.
Senate investigation of Lorimer was
on. will be brought out before the
primary campaign is over, it was said
at Thompson headquarters.
One exhibit to be brought out will be
the telegram which Deneen, then gov
ernOr of Illinois, admitted receiving
from Roy o. West, then chairman of
the Board of Review of Cook county.
The telegram was sent to Deneen the
day after LOrimeT's election and read:
MY Dear Senator: just stepped
in to see how your pulse is. Con-
gratulations. Roy o. West"
1t was known at the time that LOr-
inner could not have been elected as
United States senator without the
backing of the Deneen men in the leg
islatuTe. The above telegram has al
ways been taken as one of the indi-
cations that West and other Repub-
ican higher-ups working with De-
neen knew that Deneen traded with
LoTimer and there was an explicit
understanding that at the next SEN
atorial election Deneen would be
elected U. S. senator to join Lorimer
at Washington.
From Roy o. West has never come
any explanation of why he sent De-
neen telegram of congTatulatiOn,
addressing Deneen as my Dear Sen
ator" the day after Billy Lorimer was
