Tells How 10 Make Hair Grow Thick
and LustrOuS ON Bald and Thin Spots
Thousands of men and women are
growing bald every day and don't

a pity. says a hair specialist, who
states that badness usually comes
from carelessness, and that anyone
who gives the hair just a little atten-
ton should always have an abud-
ance OF good. healthy hair. Dandruft
and dirt causes badness by clogging
the pores in the scalp. and giving the
dandruff germs fertile ground for
prolific breeding.
The treatment is very simple; re-
move the dirt by shampooing at least
once in ten days and destroy the dan
druff germs by frequently applying a
little of the real Partisan Sage. a
most efficient preparation that the

Dear Sir In answer the query What Has

he was instrumental in securing for the writer a
Civil Service position In Washington
In April 1905 / successful in a Civil Service
examination for the position of electrician, and al
though my name headed the list of eligbles for
pontmont to this position for period of six months
no appointment rendered me. On December 10
1905 / wrote Senator DUPONT stating my case and
informing him that I a citizen Of the State OF
Delaware and on December %, 1908 received an
appointment In the Department OF Agriculture at
Washington which subsequently became permanent
feel reasonably certain that without the interven-
ton of the Senator I would not have received this
appointment The seemed very willing to help
me simply because of the fact that was native OF
the State of Delaware. although was at the time an
absolute stranger to him. 7 also know OF many other
instances in which government employees secured we'll
deserved promotions through his assistance and aid
II would seem that the criticism OF Senator du-
pont as regards his attitude toward labor are indeed
very unjust Very truly yours.

There are hundreds Of men who have felt the oene-
acal interest of Senator DUPONT in his official bust

poinment OF one man in great
business deal should have been al
lowed to extend from family quarrel
to the politics Of whole State and
wreck the party which at this time has
on its hands the task of restoring a
sane government to the American
people. Sensible men may go wild
for a time, but they soon come TO
their senses and do the right thing.
There are a few sadly disgrunted
men in Delaware who have no party
standing anywhere and who are not
wanted in any party and they are not
expected to admit the collapse Of their
balloon, but they, too, may as well
acknowledge that it is a wreck and
keep quiet about it. The quieter they
keep the less will be Their shame.
