DANORUff GOES! HAIR GETS THICK.
 NAVY, BEAUTIFUL
Save your hair! Double it's beauty in few moments.
 Try this!
Hair stops coming out and every particle of dandrufi
 s5 disappears.

Try as you will, after an applica. tion of; Danderine, you can not finG single trace of dandruff or falling hair and your scalp will not itch, but what will please you most. will be after few weeks use, when you see new hair, fine. and downy at first yes-but really new hair-growing al over the scalp.
 A little Danderine immediately doubles the beauty of your hair. Nc difference how dull, faded, brittle and scraggy, just moisten a cloth with Danderine and carefully draw il through your hair, taking one small strand at time. The effect is inn mediate and amazing-you hair will be light, fluffy and wavy, and have an appearance of abundance; an in- comparable lustre, softEess and lux uriance, the beauty and simmer oi true hair health.
 Get 25-cent bottle of Knowlton's Danderlne from any drug store or toilet counter, and prove that your hair is as pretty and soft as any-that it has been neglected or injured by careles streatment-that's all.
 Danderine is to the hair what fresh showers of rain and sunshine are to vegetation. It goes right to the roots invigorates and strengthens them. Its collaborating. stimulating and life-pro, ducing properties cause the hair to grow long, strong and beautiful.

TALKS ON BANKING LENDING THE BANKS MONEY.

If the bank confined itself to re- ceiving money offered for deposit and |paying it out again On. checks. it would render. a very great and nec- |essary service to the individual and the community. but it would soon cease to exist, because the life blood of all business (profits) would be lacking. The operation of bank Is expensive, and to hire clerks, pay rent, buy stationery and build vaults, merely to protect money and handle checking accounts. without some source of income, would prove cost ly undertaking.
 Therefore the bank must seek soma steady source of revenue, and finds it in lending the money Of it's stock hollers and depositors to those who can use more than they have. and are willing to pay for the accommoda- |ticn. And only as it loans its funds, and gets them back with interest can lit long operate as a going concern The peculiar fact of the matter is that a dollar in the bank will do as much work as from four to five dol lars elsewhere. In technical sense tho banker dces not loan money, bu, credit. He does not want your money to loan, but to use as basis of credit and one dollar to him IS as good as four for business purposes. This may seem an impossible proposition. Let us prove it.
 Experience has proven that every !. body dosS not want all their money at the same time If one hundred people were each to deposit one hun drsd dollars in bank. the banke' could safely assume that not ever one-quarter of them would call fo.' their money at one time. As matter of Get, less than fifteen per cent. would do so; therefore, if out of every dollar deposited, the banker keeps fifteen cents in money. he can mes. very ordinary demand for cash. When an unusual call arises, it is called a "bank rum" which merely means that more than the usual number of peO pie are demanding their money at enc time
 Working on this theory. the banker does not, out of the hundred dollars you deposit. lend, let us Say, ninety. he puts the hundred in his vault tin his reserve) and discounts the note of his customers, placing the pro. ceeds to their credit, against which they can check, the same as if they had deposited cash. The banker works on the law of averages, and seldom does this law fail him, for as long as he has a certain percentago of his obligations in cash, or quickly available, he is safe. (The amount of reserve money varies, in no case being legally required to be more
 than Is per cent, of tKe deposits.)
 If, therefore, the banker with one dollar in money can lend ten in cred [ when you hold back the ten, you de- priye the community Q, the hundred
 in credit. The banker is cred alchemist, making one dollar do the
 work sf many. and you owe it to him, to yousself and to yoqrsscommunltysto to
 make the credit structure as big and as strong as possible.
 The place for every dollar that you de not need. for your daily necessities
 is in the bank, for the bank will not { only protect it against fire and
 thieves. pay it back on demand, but

FOR "sAFE FARMING.r

The, drop h the price of cotton tho fast few days. and the belief in some circles that it may go lower, should impress the farmer with the wisdom. of not placing all his eggs in one basket, especially this year.
 It is the concensus of opinion among thinkers who have studied the subject that sTall cotton crop Will shrng more than large one. and that the farmer will be foolish to plant his entire acreage to cotton, when food and feed are high and likely to go higher.
 The farmers salvation, his hope for prosperity lies in safe farming. that is, making his farm produce as much of his necessities as possible. He should grow all of his own food and fesd, at least.
 Bankers and merchants must aid in inducing the farmer to pursue 8 farming policy that promises good returns and in turning the farme" from course sure to lead to dis aster. Discussing this phase of the situation, J. H. Miller. director of co- operative extension work of the United States department of agricul- ture and University Of Arkansas writes:
 "A good many inquiries have come to me from bankers asking for defi- mite sugge gestions relating to crops an'' cropping. The bankers and merch- ants with whom l have talked have seemed so well informed on these points that it hardly seems necessary to offer detailed suggestions but the following letter may suggest points 10 you for letter that each migh! write to the farmers of his county.

manding the abolition Of winerooms,
the strict enforcement Of the anti
gambling laws. and the enactment
Of an ordinance providing for the
closing Of saloons on Sunday.
The assertion Of an over-timid
delegate that the adoption Of such
n plank would be a step In the di-
rection Of prohibition is not cor
rect. II is step in the direction
Of decency
There is no use 10 mince matters.
The statement IN the democratic
platform that winerooms--the most
vicious form In which the liquor
traffic appears-"thrive under the
present regime as they never thrived
before" Is known to be true by all
yestignte conditions. While gambling
