lhe horrible practice Of whipping
prisoners in the state penitentiary
was the subject discussed for an
hoar or more at meeting of the
Prison Reform Association in New
Orleans Saturday afternoon, and
the feature of the session was a IA.
per by F, S. Shields, the president,
aid reports received by Mr.. Shields
from various prisons in the country,
all of which declared that beating
was not necessary to maintain dis
cipline among in mates of REQ ma.
tories.
President Shields contended in
his paper that the statements rec.
emily made by a prisoner discharl.
ed from Angola farm, which were
admitted. in part, by members of
the board of control of the peniten-
tiary, brought to light a condition
at the penal farm demanding a
thorough investigation.
Prison reform advocates insist
that the government, whether
through state or prison officials, has
no moral or legal right to so han.
de prisoners as to jeopardize their
physical health and lower their
moral tone.
Mr.. Shields pointed out that the
association had 6een chiefly insuu-
mental in abolishine the brutal
lease system, and the association
owed it to its traditions as well as
to the people Of the state to see that
that the management of prisoners
is humane and of a character tina;
would insure, if possible, the phsi-
cal as we'll as the moral upbuildiDe
Of the prisoners.

Now that Partisan Sage-an mex

every hair and scalp need--can be
had from W. L. Gokay, it is certainly
needless to have thin, brittle, matted

unsightly your hair, how badly 1t is
falling or how much dandruff, Paris,
ian Sage is all that is needed. Every
trace of dandruff is removed with
one application, the hair roots are

the most invigorating tonics, and will
surely make your hair soft, abundant
