HOW Old ARE YOU
by YOUR HAIR 5?

You may be thirty in years, but if
gou are baldheaded or gray, people
will surely take you to be many years
blder.
Dandruff is the root Of most hair
evils. If it were not for the little de-
structive germs working with a per-
sistency worthy Of better cause there
would be but little badness, and less
people prematurely gray.
Partisan Sage will help you to keep
young looking and attractive.
1t is guaranteed by Wilfred T. Root
TO make hair grow and stop falling
hair; to remove every bit of daldruff;
to stop itching Of the scalp almost in
stantly.
Partisan Sage is one of the most in
MIGRATING, satisfying, and pleasant
hair dressings made; it makes the hail
soft, luxuriaat and handsome; it i
especially praised by women who lov,
beautiful soft and lustrous hair. Pari
sian Sage is sold by druggists every
where, and large bottle never cost
more than so cents.

while serving in the ranks of the for
eign legion of the French army" Not
only has Col. ELLINGTON been restored to
the army, but he has been reappointed
in his old regiment, the Royal Warwick
shires, in which his father served before
him.
In this same London Gazette at the
end of October, 1914, had appeared the
crushing announcement that ELLINGTON
had been cashiered by sentence of gen
eral court-martial. What his error was
did not appear at the time and has not
/ been alluded to in his returned hour of
honor. 1t was court-martial at the front
at a time when the first rush of war
was engulfng Europe and little time
could be wasted upon an incident of this
sort. The charge, it is now stated, did
not reflect in any way upon the Off
GERS personal courage.
Col. ELLINGTON did not pass unscathed
through fire. His fighting days are end
cd. His knees are shattered and he
walks heavily upon his sticks.
Col. ELLINGTON made no attempt tc
cloak his name or his former army ser
vice when he entered the ranks of the
LEGION. "Why shouldn It / be a pri

Editions. In part he said:
"Only an average harvest is TO be

lharvest" is to be expected, and how
sit will be averaged if "below the

average" is, the world well knows,
and harvest below that spells dis
STRESS unless help comes from outside.
In the early weeks of the war Won
