OficiOus Attempt at ''NOse-POk-
ing"

ms
Speaker Champ Clark has
"poked his nose in" regarding
the nomination of a congress
man from this (Seventh) Con-
gressional district.
Under Clark's free frank Con-
gresham Hamlin has filled
Lafayette County with copies of
a speech purported to have been
made by Clark to Baby Con-
gressman." Or, in substance,
that old Congressman should be
continued in Office for life, and
that new members have little or
no chance for places on impor-
tant committees, recognition,
etc.
Speaker Clark quotes Andy
Jackson as saying that the lon
ger the people allow congress-
man to serve the better equipped
and qualified they are for rep
.resenting their constituents.
Clark garbled the above to suit
his contention, and we beg to re-
mind him that Andy Jackson
further said, Il can not but be-
lieve that more is lost by the
continuation of men in office
than is generally gained by their
experience"
The speech, though mailed un-
Ter Clark's free frank, is sent
out by Hamlin, his aim being to
"use' Speaker Clark, if possible,
to change Democratic opposition
to any one man getting into Of
flee and allowing him to hold on
till death. Rotation in Office
is sound democracy,
In using" Speaker Clark in
an attempt to change public
sentiment, Hamlin admits that
he is facing defeat, and the talk
lis general that Speaker Clark in
permitting himself to be used"
has ofiiciously ''poked his nose
in" the politics of the Seventh
District, and our people feel they
are Thoroughly competent to look
after their needs without out
siders "butting in"
Hamlin, for the eighth time,
is again a candidate, having al
ready served as congressmn for
twelve years. In that time he
should have advanced and, at
least, gained some lite promin-
ence. However, the only promin-
ence he has enjoyed is drawing
his salary and sending out gar
den seed.
Congressman Hamlin is an in
competent igure-head, and has
been in congress too long.
The Lexington intelligencer. [volume] (Lexington, Mo.) 1901-1949, 1916-04-28

He should, and we believe will,
be relegated to private life.
This will be verified at the Aug
ust primary and a self-made, safe
and capable Congressman NOM
mated who will give his best en-
deavors in behalf of the interest
and welfare of the people not
only of this district, but of the
nation. &
His name is Sam C. Major, of
Mo.

Major Munroe Mcfarland of
the General Staff, United States

the practical side of soldering
than to ceremonials.

himself as well pleased with the
showing made by the cadets. He
completed the inspection Satur-

Notice.

We are pleased to announce
that the first delivery from the
milk plant will be Sunday morn
ing. Beginning Monday, May first
we will run no more monthly
accounts, but do strictly cash
business. We desire to impress
upon our customers the necess
ity of taking care and returning
the bottles. They are of little
value to you, but means a heavy
loss to the dairyman. Bottles
not returned will be charged al
five cents apiece. We will use
tickets-quarts and pints, which
may be purchased in any guam
tity from the drivers. The driv.
ers will call on you Monday
morning with tickets. (Those
who are not up will be called up.
on, on their return) The drivers
will be responsible for tickets,
money, milk and bottles, and
must account for same to the
manager after each delivery. It
us the drivers business to deliver
and collect bottles and we kindly
ask you not to be offended if you
forget to put out tickets and
bottles, and he knocks on your
door and asks for them. We
feel they should have that privil-
ege. Many homes never fail
to have out the bottles daily
Others hold them for days not
considering how many it re-
quires to serve the trade.
There will be one delivery
daily and in making up the new
routes, some will be served earl
Ter and others later. If the
driver makes a mistake or leaves
out a customer, call up the milk
plant, phone 128, and our mana
ger, Mr.. E. j. Ellis, will take your
order and correct any mistake.
4ipO price of milk sold from the
wagon will remain the same,
8 cents per quart, 4 cents per
pint; cream Is cents per pint,
25 cents double. One half pint
cream 8 cents, one-half pint dou-
bic cream 1212 cents. Skim-milk
10 cents per gallon; buttermilk,
10 cents per gallon or 5 cents per
quart.
We will make pasturized
creamery butter, which will be
sold at market prices. There
will be a supply of milk and
cream kept at the plant at all
but special orders sent
from the plant after the regular
delivery will be 10 cents per
quart and 5 cents per pint for
milk.
We cordially invite you to in
spect our plant, and with the
proper spirit of cooperation, we
hope to steadily improve and
elevate the dairy industry in
Lexington.
In changing from a credit to
a cash basis, we feel we are not
anything unreasonable,
as our loss has been heavy. We
have many local customers whom
we appreciate and thank. We
aim to give quick and satisfac-
tory service and will be glad of
the opportunity to prove this
to you. Our motto will be
Pure Products" the same
price, and better milk to each
customer.

TURN HAIR DARK
 WITH SAGE TEA
Grandma kept her locks dark, glossy and youthful with simple mix . ture of Sage Tea and Sulphur.

The old-ti1ne mixture of Sage Teaz and Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked and faded hair is grand mothers recipe, and folks are again using it to keep their hair a good, even color, which is quite sensible, as we are living in an age when youth ful appearance Is of the greatest ad- vantage.
 Nowadays, though, we don't have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the mussy mixing at home. All drug stores sell the ready-to-use product, improved by the addition of other ingredients, called 'Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound" for about 50 cents a bottle. It Is very popular because nobody can discover it has been applied. Simply motsten your comb or a soft brush with 1t and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morn ing the gray hair disappears, but what delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound, Is that, be- sides beautifully darkening the hair after a few applications, 1t also pro- duces that soft lustre and appearance of abundance which is so attractive This ready-to-use preparation is a d.. liEhtful toilet requisite for those who desire e more youthful appearance
 It Is not intended for the cure. milf. gation or preventAaa of disease.

WHY HAIR FALLS OUT

Dandruff causes a feverish irritation of the scalp the hair roots shrink, loosen and then the hair comes out fast To stop falling hair at once and rid the scalp of every particle of dan druff, get a 25-cent bottle of Dander- inc at any drug store, pour a little in your hand and rub well into the scalp. After few applications all dandruff disappears and the hair stops con- ing out.

Of MerCV:

It gives us pleasure to tes- tify to the healing and build ing properties of Linonine. We have found it efficacious in cases of bronchitis and lung troubles, also as a builder and strength restOrer. We cOnfi- dently recommend its use to others suffering from similar affections. -s

Island, the gift Of his body was made
Sunday. In obedience to DR.. Murphy's
last wish that science establish the
cause of the death which he knew was
coming, an autopsy was performed
here as soon as the body was brought
from the Northern summer resort. II
established that death was due to heart
disease aggravated by throat trouble.
This confirmed the diagnosis that DIR.
Murphy had made on his own condition.

London-The whole line of the River
Stripa in Galicia was seized by the
Russians Sunday. The army Of Gen
eral Won Bothmer. after holding its
strongly fortified position ever since
last winter, was compelled by the
powerful pressure Of the Russians
north and south to fall back hastily
toward the west. The Austrians are
probably entrenched behind the Zlota
Lipa river, prepared to make a last
stand before they retreat to positions
before Lemberg.
1t was the menace to his TANKS and
rear, rather than any frontal move
ment. which caused Won Bothmer to
surrender the line along the Stripa,
which for seven weeks had been sub
jected to the most violent Russian at
taeks.
Generals Sakharoff on the north and
Letchitsky on the south had gradually
closed in upon the Austrian wings.
