OUR REAL STANDING ARMY

We may be tired of the old saying thal We dig our graves with our forks" But, in the light of the new awakening of the housewife to her great responsibility, that old saying is taking on a new meaning; and we might also add that we begin the work of destruction with the nursing bottle even before the fork can be used. How few women really know the market, the seasons Of production, the cost of handling foods, the best time to buy certain foods. How few women really know the condition of the commercial foods they buy.
 We women hold within our hands the prompt elimination of all adul- terated, unsanitary commercial foods, for, II we never bought such foods, they could not be manufactured. You should be acquainted with those who produce, outside of the home, the foods you buy. And you could easily be- come acquainted through organization. Look about you right now and see
 what foods are produced near your home. Go to the factory and investi- gate it and see if it's products are worthy of your purchase; see If the foods which it produces are such as you want to place upon your table. Investigation is heartily welcomed by every honest manufacturer in this country. The commercial cannery, the commercial bakery. the commercial laundry the commercial factory of every kind, is an adjunct to the twen- tieth- century home. We have right to know under what conditions these ! industries are conducted and what they produce, and an obligation rests I upol US to obtain this knowledge. The cooperation among the honest manu- lecturers, the consumers. and the trade is going to wipe out all products of unknown quality and all unfair trad
 ing. We eliminate the bad by uphold ing the good.-Mrs. Julian Heath in | the November Mothers Magazine.

Mir. Hanson Putfuff. vice president of the California Art club. has just mo- tified Mrs. w. K. James, superinten- dent of the art exhibit at the Arizona state fair, that he would arrive in Phoe- nix within the next few days prepara tory to officiating as judge of the many works of art that will be on display at the fair this year.

 Get a 25 cent bottle of Knowlton's Danderine from any drug store or
 toilet counter, and after the first ap- plication your hair will take on that life, lustre and luxurance which is
 so beautiful. It will become wavy and fluffy and have the appearance of abundance; an incomparable gloss and softness, but what will please you most will be after just few weeks use, when you will actually

Ladies! Men! Here's the quick
 est, surest dandruff cure known

Thin, brittle, colorless and scraggy hair is mute evidence of a neglected scalp; of dandruff-that awful scurf. There is nothing so destructive to of its lustre, it's strength and it's very life; eventually producing a feverish- ness and itching of the scalp, which if not remedied causes the hair roots to shrink, loosen and die-then the hair falls out fast.
