nearly all of the onerous humiliating
conditions usually imposed upon pris-
oners. The men responded to his treat
ment in such a manner as to convince
prison authorities everywhere that
criminals are usually victims of circum-
stances, and that they need but far
and humane treatment on the part of
their advisers to come back to real
manhood.
But Warden Codding begins with the
boy; that is the secret of his grip upon
the masses of people. Speaking of this
phase of his work the Weekly Tran
script at Palmyra, H., where he APP
peared last year, said:
"Mr. Codding, who has been warden
of Kansas penitentiary four years
and told us something about the hand
ling of boys, for as he said the majority
of criminals are boys really, for they
are men under 80. The speaker took
Joe as concrete example of the gen.
esis and exodus of crime, and the vast
audience that listened to his keen analy-
sis of the causes lin the home govern
ment and city government that very
naturally contributed to Joe's' finish,
because aware that competent mind
was graphing with great subject and
'threshing it out in satisfactory
manner. He got down to brass tacks'
in his treatment of the question and no
doubt brought to light few 'Joes' in
Palmyra. whose parents don't know
whether they or Joe are the law-givers
in the home. The address was practical,
timely. dealt with the very foundations
on which society is built, and was
greeted with rounds of applause.

COL. GEARHART

Lee Francis Lybarger, of the Phila-
delphia bar, author of several texts on
American tariff in speaking of Col.
Gearhart, who is on the chautauqua
program, recently said: "His lecture
at our chautauqua on The Coming
Man was an event in the intellectual
and moral life of our people. Buffalo
Valley never heard such portrayal of
moral traits and greatness. His con-
ceptions of character rise into the sub
lime. He does not preach, he inspires.
He does not urge, he enthuses. He
creates within the heart of every nearer
the desire to attain the lofty eminences
of character which his language so elo-
quently portrays. Every sentence is
a finished product. His diction is
masterful-perfect. His tribute to Lin.
coin was suburb-sublime. His pro.
auctions are of the classic mould. He
displays the fire and eloquence of the
Attic orators of ancient Greece. AnC
The message which he leaves in every
community will live and revivify hu.
man life and stir the sluggish con
science long after the name of the
gifted messenger has been forgotten
May health and long life attend him ir

Dandruff Surely
Destroys The Hair

Girls-if you want plenty Of thick,
beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do by all
means get rid Of dandruff, for 1t will
starve your hair and ruin it if you
don't.
1t doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out. The only sure
way to get rid of dandruff is to dis
solve it, then you destroy it entirely.
To do this, ket about four ounces of
ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at
night when retiring; use enough to
moisten the scalp and rub it in gently
with the finger tips.
By morning, most if not all, OF your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will completely
dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of it.
You will find, too. that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop, and
your hair will look and feel hundred
times better You can get liquid ar
Won at any drug store. 1t is inexpen-
sive and four ounces is all you will
need, no matter how much dandruff
you have. This simple remedy never
fails.-Adt.

Ing the prisoner to the penal farm for
sixty days, $3.50 or more Is saved.
County Saves $3.50
The saving to Wayne county on
sixty day prisoners sent to the penal
farm will be $3.50.
Mr.. Seidel said that he sees no
danger OF overcrowding the penal
farm. No prisoners sentenced before
Monday will be received. The capacity
OF the farm is now 200 or more and
Is being rapidly increased. BY fall
the capacity will be from 500 to 800
which is expected to include most of
the prisoners from all counties who
normally receive terms Of sentence
from sixty days to one year.

lar jail sentence. It will be impossible
to send persons guilty OF intoxication
to the new state institution.
Cheap for County.
Another point which has arisen
against offenders is the fact that it
will be cheaper for the counties to
have judges sentence prisoners for
sixty days at the penal farm than for
thirty days in the county jail.
1t is estimated that the expense Of
sending prisoner from Wayne county
to the penal farm with a guard and
returning the prisoner her at the ex-
piration Of his sentence will be under
SO.
A thirty day sentence for a prisoner
costs the county $3.50 the sheriff re-

the estate of Henry Williams.
The case was set for trial this morn
ing and the attorneys for the estate
brought dozen witnesses to the court
room, but Brown was not present. The
Judge extended the time for his ap.
pearance until noon and then dismiss

A short time ago jury was called
to hear the case and Brown failed to
appear. Brown says he took care of
Williams during a long period of ILL
