THIS STOPS HAIR
FROM FALLING OUT

Ever count the dead hairs in your
comb and brush? They are natures
warning of future baldnes and proof
that the dangerous dandruff germ is
busy on your scalp.
DR.. Sangerbund, the famous Paris spe-
cialist, first discovered that dandruff
and falling hair are caused by mi
crobe. Then came the discovery of the
value of the real Partisan Sage liquid
form in destroying the dandruff germ
and promptly preventing the further loss
of hair. The effect of only three days
use of Partisan Sage is simply marvel
Gus. and the American people have now
awakened to the fact that they can be
quickly rid of dandruff and save their
hair by using Partisan Sage.
Partisan Sage is sold by the Red Cross
Pharmacy and good druggists every
where. Its inexpensive, dsintily per-
fumt~, free from sickness, and will
surely cause hair TO grow soft, lustrous
and really seem twice as abundant

LIVESTOCK PRICES STRONGER
Hogs Higher and Choice Beef Cattle Very
Firm at Brighton Market.

Brighton, Mass, Dec. BIN spite Of
the depressing effect of the storm, con
siderable strength was shown at the
Brighton stock yards yesterday morn
ing, with hogs actually higher and choice
beef stock and calves very firm.
Arrivals for the day were about the
same as week ago, and with an inn
proved demand, went off readily at full
prices.
The feature of the day was bunch of
twenty eight Christmas cattle brought
from Maine by Hall and Lowell. Old
timers said that it was the best bunch
seen at Brighton for many years. The
price realized was l0A cents, through,
and the buyer William Munroe. The
cattle were raised by Mosher & Luce,
Pennington; Ira Allen, Turner, Ed, Rob
nson, Readfeld; Smith Thompson, Liv-
ermore Falls. and Frank Welch, Tenn
pie, Me- They were mostly Holsteins.
Outside of the above-named lot, few
choice cattle were offered, tops bringing
about sh@0 cents with good cattle at
7MS cents and light cattle at cal cents.
Some choice beef cows sold at So
cents, or fraction better, though the
general range for tops was 6@612 cents,
with good cows at 5@5la cents, ordinary
cows at 1905 cents and Gamer cows
at 4@4h cents.
Bulls brought around 81 @61a cents
for best beef stock, with bologna bulls
at 41ba5 cents.
Small lots of fancy calves sold up to
IL cents, the range for bunch lots of the
best stocks being l0@ll1a cents, with
fair lots at 9@l0 cents, and greasers and
drinkers at COS cents.
Hogs were again slightly firmer, in
spit of the biggest local kill since Jan
uary, 1916, tops selling at l0@l04 cents,
with rough lots at 91aM9& cents
There was no change to note in sheep
and lambs, arrivals being quickly taken
up at s0l0 cents for lambs, and Gas
cents for sheep. Trade in mich cows
was slow, the supply being ample for
the demand Fancy to good mixers were
in demand, but ordinary mixers went
slowly. Quotations are S40@ $50 for or
binary, $50@$75 for good, Ss0@SlOO and
upward for fancy mixers.
/ It is necessary to go back to jan
uary, 1916, to find as big kill of hogs
as that reported by Boston packers for
the past week. The aggregate was 3d.
900 hogs, which compares with 81 1000 for
the preceding week and $4,000 for the
same week last year. Since January l.,
1919, the total kill by Boston packers
has been l,o73,200 hogs, against $4,000
for the same period in 1915.

Paris, April ga French aero
tackled Zeppelin off Zeebrugee at a
height of 1926 feet, throwing nine
incendiary bombs at the dirigible,
which was believed to be returning
from last nights raid on England.
The Zeppelin tilted its nose skyward
and moved off but apparently was
damaged, the French aviator reported
in official dispatches.
At the same time another French
aeropIane attacked a German torpedo
boat off Ostend, firing several bombs.
The torpedo boat was struck but the
extent of the damage was not def
nitely known.
Bring Down FOkker
In recountlng THESE ACTIVITIES, the
war offlce announced that "a French
aviator brought down one of the ia
mour German Fokker fighting planes
at Luneville, near Nancy, and that the
German pilot was made prisoner
The attack upon the Zeppelin re-
suited in a thrilling battle more than
two miles in the air, above the Bel
gian coast in the darkness.
Only brief dispatches had reached
Paris this afternoon. 1t appeared,
however. that a French squadron, fol-
Zeppelin raiders, started toward Zee
brugee when word of last nights raid
on England was telegraphed to the
French coast to prepare to intercept
the returning Germans.
Aeroplane Above Zeppelin.
Climbing to a height of more than
two miles, the speedy French aero
plane Unanswered until it was above
the air dreadnaught and then began to
hurl down projectiles. The Zeppelin
searchlights began sweeping the sky
with wide arcs of light and began
sending streams of machine gun fire
toward the speeding plane.
The aeroplane discharged practical
ly all its load of bombs before the
Zeppelin, apparently crippled, turned
its prov skyward and climbed to still
greater altitude at a dizzy speed.
Meanwhile, one of the French
planes participating in the dash along
the Belgian coast, spied a German tor
pedo boat in the darkness off Ostend
and attacked the small warship Hits
were. observed. official dispatches
stated. but in the darkness it was
impossible to ascertain exactly how
much damage was done.
