HOW To secure
MEMBERSHIP IN
A SCOUT TROOP

Any boy of II years or over may be-
come scout by applying to the scout
master of the troop already started
in his section of the city or town. If
he lives in large city where there is
a scout commissioner or scout execu-
tive, it would be better to apply to
that officer. At present in this city
we have scout headquarters and any
boy wishing to become scout can
apply To become scout, get a scout
handbook from some of the hook
stores and read it over and if you like
it, get in touch with some of the
scouts and they will tell you all you
wish to know Il.
Troops of Boy Scouts should be con-
nected with some school, church or
other institution when practicable. The
head of the institution should certify
to his approval of the organization of
the troop of boy scouts upon the ap-
plication blank which the institution
forwards to the local headquarters
from where it is sent to New York.
The institution through its proper au-
thorities furnishes a committee of at
least three responsible persons who
shall be known as the troop commit
tee. This troop committee is respon-
sible for the selection of scoutmas-
ter The best way for boys to be-
come scouts is for them to apply to
their Sunday school teacher or super
intendent, or some leader interested
in boys work in the home and town,
and have him make himself respon-
Sible for the organization of q troon
as suggested. In all cases the consent
Of the parent or guardian should be
given. If it is difficult to secure help
in organizing a troop local headquar.
tiers will gladly give assistance.

HEADACHES
WITHOUT DOSING
BY Applying Sloan's Liniment
to Forehead You Can Stop
the Severe Pains

Many headaches are of a neuralgia
origin. The symptoms of such head
aches are intense and lingering pains
in the brow, temples or back of the
head. " .r.-, I'd. .. ..."..:. g.
. There is one certain relief that has
been known and recommended for
years back. Sloan's Liniment One
application and the dull: pain is prac-
tically gone. 1t is easily applied with
out rubbing. Rubbing is unnecessary,
as Sloan's Liniment quickly pene-
trates to the seat of trouble.
Aching muscles. rheumatism,
bruises, lumbago, chilblains, sprains
and stiff neck can also be most eff
fectively treated with Sloan's Lini-.
