REASON FOR OLD AGE
DISCOVERED
SCIENCE NOW KNOWS WHY WE
GET OLD AND WHY WE
COX oil u

Scientists now tell us that, as the
years pass, an excess of mineral mat
ter IS deposited on the walls of the ar
teries and veins. This so hardens them
that the blood cannot nourish the It's
sues and give them the life needed.
Therefore the senses begin to fail and
other organs do not function as this
hardening extends to the blood vessels
that feed them. Skin becomes wrink-
led and hair turns gray and falls.
Recently scientist discovered that
healthy hair contains five natural ele-
ments: Carbon, Oxygen, Nitrogen,
Hydrogen and Sulphur And when
ever hair became gray or dropped out,
it is because some of these elements
are lacking for some reason.
Following this discovery he produced
preparation that would, when ap-
piled to the scalp, give the hair all these
vital elements. Then the hair roots
could take up the ones lacking Hun
dreds Of tests proved that his combina-
ton was the right one; for it restores
the natural color to gray hair, grew
hair on bald heads and stopped dan
druff.
Instead Of simply stimulating the
hair follicles to unnatural activity by
alcohol stimulation that leaves
them worse when stopped-this prep
| aration feeds to the scalp these life
giving elements needed to stop the fall
ing hair and to renew the activity of
the coior glands.
After years Of tests he has placed
this remarkable preparation for renew
ing youthfulness on sale at Elders
drug store, % e. Main street. He calls
it VOLA-VITA, meaning Behold Life
because VIOLA Vita brings back the life
! to the hair and makes it young.

Chase Hoboes and
Catch Burglars

A chase after hoboes at Boone re-
suited in the arrest near ogden and at
Jefferson of three young hoboes, two
of whom have confessed to breaking
into the Kline j. Wilson home. 3Oo
West State street, the night of Sept. i,
and stealing safety razor opera
glasses, and lavalliere. The stolen
property has been recovered. TWO OF
the arrests were made last week, ana
the third at Jefferson this forenoon.
Two 19-year- old boys, giving the
names of Richard Osler, of Phila-
delphia, and Carl Stacher, of Meriden,
Mass, the first arrested after chase
from Boone to west of Ogden, were
brought to this city Sunday by Sheriff
]. c.. Edgar. This morning they con-
fessed in the office Of County Attorney
Scott, From them was recovered the
gold plated safety razor owned by
Wilson and the lavalliere belonging to
Mrs. Wilson. Their capture led to a
search for another young hobo Who
when taken this forenoon, had the
black gold mounted opera glasses
supposed to be the same as stolen from
the Wilson home. The name of the
third man had not been learned here
Sheriff Edgar will go to Jefferson for
him tonight.
The arrests were the result of the
effort of the Boone police to round up
the hoboes When the Boone police
attempted to arrest the three in Boone
they fled and the police gave chase.
The hoboes caught west-bound
1. ierhf ~,
yards, and the police followed in an
automobile to west of Ogden, where
two OF the hoboes were overhauled and
arrested but the third escaped.
When searched the safety razor and
lavalliere were found The Boone
police had read in the Times-Republi-
can OF the Wilson burglary and got in
touch with Wilson and the officers
here. Wilson went to Boone Saturday
and identified the razor. Warrants
were issued in Justice Peek's court
charging grand larceny. The confess
sion Of the two arrested implicated the
one who escaped to jefferson, where
he was caught by the sheriff.
Osler and STACKER told glibly Of
breaking into the Wilson home. They
also said they robbed another house
in the city the same night but no
other theft was reported to the officers
the night Of Sept. /. The prisoners had
in their possession. however, pair of
pearl mounted opera glasses and
number of very old coins most of them

collection.
