EXPLAINS WHY MEN
ARE Growing BALD

Thousands of men are growing bald
every day and don't know the reason
why. Many Of them never expect to
save even what hair is left.
This is indeed pity. says a hair
specialist, who claims that badness
usually comes from carelessness, and
that anyone who gives the hair just
a little attention should always have
an abundance Of good. healthy hair.
Dandruff and dirt help to cause bald
ness by clogging the pores in the
scalp and giving the dandruff germs
fertile ground for prolific breeding.
The treatment is very simple !:
shampoo the hair at least once i'm ten
days and destroy the dandruff germs
by frequently applying Partisan Sage.
a delightfully."- efficient preparation
that the best druggists everywhere
are now recommending as one of the
quickest and surest treatments to stop
itching scalp, and falling hair. remove
all dandruh and TO refresh and invig-
arate the hair roots.
Partisan Sage is also the discrimi-
mating woman's favOrite hair dressing
because II gives her hair a softness
and lustre that fascinates and COM
pels admiration. A generous bottle
costs but little at your druggist who
guarantees it to you.

WASHINGTON. d. c., May 16.-
Elsewhere on the globe wars may be
waged and wars may cease. but revo-
lutions 20 on forever, seemingly. in
the two republics occupying the island
of Haiti. Double trouble exists there
al the present time. In the black re-
public on the western end OF the

American forces under rear Admiral

Parliament. while in the eastern re-
public Of Santo Domingo. President
Jiminez. imDeached by his Chamber
Of Deputies, has resigned rather than

Of the United States.

intervene IN MEXICO.
URGES meyer LONDON

WASHINGTON, d. c.. May 16. -
Representative Meyer London, social
list. Of New York, declared that inter-
vention and annexation of at least a
portion Of Mexico by the United
States was inevitable.
The unofficial report that the re-
publics of South America would not
protest against action by the United
States TO restore order in Mexico by
armed force, If necessary, removes the
last obstacle" he asserted. Continu-
ing, he said
students Of the Mexican situation
since American troops crossed the line
in pursuit Of the bandit villa have for
some time been convinced that inter-
vention inevitably would follow
through the ingrown hate and con-
stant agitation of a threatened inva-
sion, by MeXicans, both of the Car
rama faction and other factions.
Intervention will necessitate arm
ed rule and ultimate annexation, for
the people will resist until subdued.
do not think that the whole OF Mexico
will be annexed, but l do believe that
at least a portion in the far north will
be placed under the American flag.
Representative London asserted that
he was in favor OF Intervention under
existing circumstances There is nc
reason >" he said, "why we should
have a neighbor who keeps our border
inhabitants in constant fear of death
And that will be the case until the
present generation is convinced thai
the United States is determined tC
have a peaceful neighbor.
"The elimination OF villa will no
mean the cessation Of such horrors as

When The Little Millionaire" starts to throw his money to the winds next Monday night at the Ly- ceum and entertains his many friends With song and story there will be packed houses all during the remain der of that week. For this comedy interpolated with snappy songs and dances has more of George M. Cohan's get-up-and-go in it than The Talk of New York" which is occupving the boards this week and which Is meeting with unbelievable success. The past three performances have been played to standing room only.
 Philip Sheffield will have the title role in the play next week, Alfred Cross to take minor part just for the novelty of it. It remains to be seen now what MT. Sheffield will do now that he has been given free rein. but his many friends and admirers throughout the city predict for him week of great success. He is right in his element when it comes to musical comedy, having spent some twelve years in this sort of work.
 There are about twelve songs in ''The Little Millionaire" songs that will bring back pleasant memories, that will call up visions of a few years ago when they were the rage all over the country. Just as people are whistling the songs featured in the performance this week, so the old Cohan melodies will be brought out and polished up for a whistling cam paign next year. Then again, there will be put in next weeks show many local "hits'' such as are being fea- tured in '"The Talk of New York" An. augmented chorus Is now being trained to support the principles, and Thomas Senna who is making so much fun with his quaint "rube" dance and song, will put on another speciality. MT. Senna is an old time vaudevillian and has many tracks of the trade In his repertoire.

Of Course A Man Has a Right To
 Expect Some Things.

What about justifiable fault finding, you may say?
 We'll, every man has a right to eX- pect his wife to learn to cook the food he provides, nourishingly and palat- ably. But has he any more reason for demanding a first-class cook than she a first-class provider?
 When the cooking falls below a reasonable standard, a man is of course entitled to criticise and ask that his wife try to improve it. But this criticism does not need to be made in an ill-tempered way. And if a man wants to be especially decent, he might wait until after dinner, that is, of course, if the thing isn't some thing that can be remedied at the time.
 No Man Could Work Well Under Such
 Conditions.
 No man could do his work well in the atmosphere of irritable criticism to which many of them subject their wives.
 I have often heard employers boast of the tact they use with the office help and sometimes heard these same men find fault with their wives in an utterly tactless way.
 What does criticism mean-fault- finding? Not as it's primary mean ing It means primarily the act of judging justly of the beauties and faults of the work of art. The def- milton is suggestive. I know man who developed his wife into a fine cook without a single irritable word. He criticised in the true sense, that is, he encouraged the good and court eously pointed out her mistakes

Breadcrumbs can be used both to give body to an Omelet and to thicken a custard. Use half a cupful of crumbs to three eggs.
 Before dipping oysters into crumbs, etc., before frying, see that they are dry. This will keep their coating from coming off.
 When putting bottles in the trunk for travelling make sure that the corks will stay in by sticking them in with adhesive plaster
 Peaches are good baked Take cut the stone and fill the cavity with sugar, chopped nuts and raisins and bake the same as apples.
 ~- After an electric iron is over heated it will require more current to make it hot.
 Minced nasturtium leaves sprin- kled over the omelet will give 1t a spicy flavor.

One Cause of Indigestion

A doctor was questioning woman patient who had come to him with bad case of nervous indigestion. He asked her if she enjoyed her meals.
 "Doctor," she said in a burst of frankness, "since I've been married I haven't been able to eat the way I used to, because-well, you know John has a good deal of nervous strain in his business and he comes home all on edge, and Well-he does find so much fault with his meals. Flies out at me if anything is wrong, you know. And when he does that, it simply takes my appetite all away. I don't eat anything and, if I do, I don't want it. And even when he doesn't com plain, I'm so afraid he is. going to that I'm nervous and I don't enjoy my food. Really, doctor, I'm not such a bad cook. John says so himself, but he says he's nervous and little things irritate him.
 He Blamed Her Indigestion On Her
 Husbands Finding.
 The doctor who told me this con- NSISdlIOu dQQeQ SIlully: IneTe ; d subject for you-the selfishness of the man who spells his Wife's dinner and helps give her nervous indiges- tion by venting all the pent-up irrita- ton of his day in an outburst of tenn per if anything about the meal doesn' t entirely suit him.
 A man who will kick a dog be- cause someone he cant kick has called him down, is one of the mean est creatures living, isn't he?
 And yet does he differ so much from the man who will kick his wife (not in the flesh but in the spirit and that often hurts just as much) when things have gone wrong at the office?
