HOW TO GET RID OF
CHRONIC DANDRUFF

The only sure way to get perma-
nelly rid OF dandrutf is to remove the
conditions that cause 1t and then
keep the scalp In a clean, healthy,
vigorous state so dandruff will never
return. This beats shampoos, which
merely remove the dandruff for a
few days at most. Wells Haymaker
Co. are now strongly recommending
Partisan Sage. a harmless, inexpen-
sive and quick acting preparation,
that is guaranteed to act directly on
the cause OF dandruff and entirely
remove 1t or the purchase price will
be cheerfully refunded.
Here Is test no one should fail
to try. Get from your druggist a
package of Partisan Sage. Rub a lit
tie Of 1t into the scalp with the finger
tips and see for yourself how the
dandruff disappears, the hair stops
falling out and all itching immedl-
ately ceases. Nothing hurts the hair.
more than dandruff, SO why not begin
using Partisan Sage today. and be
forever rid OF it?-Adyertisement.

The Rural Churches.
(Burlin gton News.)

The Brattleboro RefOrmer would
Z" be surprised if the rural church sur
vey, which is to be made in Vermont
by competent committee, does not
result in a recommendation for the
consolidation of many churches in
small towns and it adds that peo-
pie are drawing closer together in
religious matters, and the doctrinal
creeds and dogmas which were con
sidered of paramount Importance to
the fathers do not appeal very
strongly to the present generation. =
Is the problem to be solved 50
easily?
1t strikes us that it is a highly
superficial view of the situation which
attributes the multiplication of
churches solely to insistence upon
creeds. 1t is something different and
far more vital, for it is based on the
personal equation, the pride of opin-
ion, would-be social leadership and
solidarity. and other things that
have no connection with ereeds.
There are towns a-plenty in Vermont
where II the churches were cons1Il-
dated today they would be unconsoE-
dated within twelve-month.
We mention these things because
Iney present Il Phase OF the question
that is never brought forward In dis
cussion, but which is of the highest
Importance, as showing that the prob
lem IS deeper than appears on the sur
face and that it is not to be settled
by rough and ready methods. 1t is not
wholly facts and conditions but human
nature that must be dealt with.
Another circumstance which we have
never seen mentioned in all the dis
cussion of the subject in the S ate
press, and that is that it concerns the
non-liturgical churches solely. DIS
cussion of this branch of the matter
would lead us into deep waters OF
theology, but we may suggest merely
that it is the ideal of the liturgieal
churches to bring their ministrations
to every one Of their children, how
ever remote and solitary.

TEACHING THRIFT.

The Reformer has occasionally com
mentad upon the desirability and val
ne of thrift and believes many of its
readers viii be interested in a thrift
campaign which has just been begun
in the public schools of Albany. n.
Y. The idea is not only to teach the
children thrift, but also to give them
q rudimentary knowledge of banking.
This Albany campaign has the right
man at its head. He is J. II. Man
ning, former mayor of the city, pres
ident of the National Savings bank
Of Albany and president of the Saw
ings Banks association of New York.
Mr.. Manning has learned the value of
habits Of thrift, and at q meeting of
the city school principals a few days
ago he gave an address in which he
set forth many facts bearing upon the
subject III hand. He outlined plan
under which saving by the pupils will
be conducted The principals will be
the bankers and each pupil Will be
supplied with a miniature bank book.
When the deposits Of any pupil reach
ono dollar the pupil will be given a
bond and the money will be placed in
a bank where it viii draw interest.
While all this is being done the pu-
pills will be given instruction in bank
ing methods, with no thought of MAX
~ 3 oil
them knowledge which will be useful
to them in after life in whatever call
ing they may be engaged
In emphasizing the value of the saw
ing habit Mr.. Manning said: 81 be-
lieve that in this country today many
men, in proportion to their means are
spending entirely too much money. All
thought is given over to paying out
the dollar and hardly any considera-
ton is given to holding the dollar
and seeing it grow. The time, how
ever is sure to come when people will
be more saving than they are today,
and when it does it will be big ben
eft to everybody"
There is reason to believe that thrift
can be advantageously taught in the
schools, but if the lessons are to be
effective they must also be taught in
the home. 1t viii avail little to en-
/ courage a child to form habits OF
thrift in the schoolroom if the prac-
I tice of extravaganza is to be con.
stantly before his eyes at home. One
result of teaching thrift in the schools
should be to open the eyes of parents
to the Importance Of the subject and
the necessity of setting a good exam
pie.
The people of this country are alto
gether too careless in the matter OF
saving. No one admires or advocates
parsimony, but the practice of thrift
should be more general than it is.

Vermont strongest fiduciary insti-

company of Montpelier, made an ex-
cellent selection which will be general
~ approved in electing Fred A. How

the logical man for the place, having

Our New Mexican Diplomacy.
(Fitchburg, Mass, Sentinel.)

ktltclDurS, Mass, SehI1nel.)
Out of the confusion of events In
Mexico and our Mexican policy a
wholly new phase is standing out with
some clearness, and it is becoming
clearer. 1t is that we are now holding
new relations with the A B c countries
of South America, that they have a
part IN our Mexican policy which can
not be ignored, and that the situation
is more stable and satisfactory in con
sequence. 1t is quite probable that the
suspicion is well founded that the Ger
man influence would embroil us with
Mexico and foment war between the
two countries. 1t is further true that
the frontier sentiment is in favor of in
PREVENTION. Still further, it is beyond
question that the great financial in
terests which want to exploit Mexico
and which would make an asset of the
Stars and Stripes is in favor of United
States intervention in Mexico
All these factors make a strong
combination. There has been great ex-
citement in Washington over the shoot
ing of II Americans by Villa. Hot
heads have been fierce for intervention.
Yet the sober second thought seems to
be prevailing. President Wilson has
the support of many Republicans in
his policy of forbearance and of help
fulness toward the Carranza govern
ment. At the same time there rises to
the surface the assurance that the A Il
c countries would not look with favor
upon Intervention by the United
States.
Now, our combination with these

THE STENO GRAPHER
b HOVard Liam
end Sealin8 uaX Of cabba8es- 8, kings

The stenographer is the only woman
IN existence who can be dictated to
for any length of time without caus-
ing bloodshed. This is why so many
business men who are not able to
even dictate how the head Of lettuce
shall be served at home hire blonde
stenographers and throw rude, I'M
grammatical remarks at them for
hours at time.
StenograPhers are not employed for
their good looks, as is popularity sup
posed, but for their ability to trans
late the thoughts of an employer who
IS not able to express himself with
fountain pen. When we look over our
great country and see the large num-
Der of prosperous business men who
cannot spell the simplest word with
out closing both eyes and breat hing
hard, we see how necessary it Is t.
have trained, agile stenographers who
can grab few loose, rambling
thoughts from a vacant mind and con-
vert them into plain, two-ply English.
The stenographer IS subject to many
bitter experiences and heav+ trials
One of these is the absentminded die
tator, who starts 4 long, serpentine
sentence, breaks off in the middle to
think about something else, and then
demands that the last four pages be
read out loud. Another is the employer

Habit of Promptness.

Once you form a habit of being
prompt to meet all your engagements,
you will find it just as easy to be
prompt as to be tardy. Work con
scientiously until the habit is formed
and the whole of your life will be
the easier for it.
Occasionally, of course, with the
best of intentions delays occur that
cause us to keep others waiting. 1t
is always a good plan, therefore. when
you are going to meet somebody in
a strange place to arrange beforehand
that if you are detained you will tele-
phone to some point to which the per.
son you are going to meet can tele
phone-and so you can let each other
know what has happened.

who forgets whether he is writing to
has wife or the wholesale house ana
slips IN few eniearing passages along
with an order for keg Of ten-pennv
nails. This probably accounts for the
look CT settled melancholy on the
faces of so many stenographers who
should be as gay and froIiesome as "a
humming bird.
The chief implements used by the
stenographer are a notebook. a bat
terry of soft-nosed lead pencils and an
occasional CLEAN Of human inteli-
gence. They also use a short. ierky
form of conversation called shorthand,
consisting of series Of semaphore
signals which resemble the epitaph on
the tomb Of Rameses II. These are
then given q free interpretation, which
sometimes becomes SO free that it runs
away with the context, after which all
that is left is run through n type
writer. Thousands of re2ms Of canned
language are thus embalmed every
wear by stenographers who would rath-
er lie in hammock and listen to the
seductive strains Of love s young
dream.
Good stenographers arc more nee
essarv to human happiness than a we'll
aged T-steak or the fresh, country
bred egg, and are just about as hard
to find.
