GIRLS! HAVE WAW,
THICK, GLOSSY HAIR
FREEFROM OANORUFF
Save your hair! Double its beauty
in a few moments
try thisl

If YOU care for heavy hair. that
glistens with beauty and is radiant
with life: has an incompatible soft.
ness and is fluffy and lustrous, try
Danderine.
Just one application doubles the
beauty of your hair, besides it imme.
diately dissolves every particle of
dandrun: YOU cannot have nice. heavy
healthy hair if YOU have dandruf.
This destructive scurf robs the hair
of its lustre, its strength and its very
life. and if not overcome il produces
a feverishness and itching of the
scalp: the hair roots famish. loosen
and die. then the hair falls out fast.
II your hair has been neglected and
is thin, faded, dry, scraggy or too
oily. get a 25-cent bottle of Knowl-
tons Danderine at any drug store or
toilet counter; apply little as di-
rected and in ten minutes after YOU
will say this was the best investment
YOU ever made.
We sincerely believe. regardless Of
everything else advertised, that if
YOU desire soft, lustrous, beautiful
lair and lots of it-no dandrufi,-no
itching scalp and no more falling hair
your must use Knowlton's Dander.

The mortality rate of pneumonia in

Let us all so live that, when the
summons comes to join the innumera-

his chamber in the silent halls of
death, we shall go, not like the galley

But in the last days it shall come to

And many nations shall come, and

Efficiency OF Battle Cruisers.
To prove that the battle cruiser
has redeemed its unfortunate early
reputation it is only necessary to
point to the activities of this type of
fighting craft since the war began.
Battle cruisers brought Won Specs
career to full stop and they were
the only big ships which succeeded
in getting into the North sea engage
ments. So it is not surprising that
these monsters, the biggest fighting
machines ahoat, are .dolized by the
officers and men who fight on them.
Are Chief Power.
A squadron at the opening of the
war, the battle cruisers now form
the nucleus of Great Britain's first
line of naval offense When the mist
lifted for a few minutes as the cor
respondent stood on the control
bridge of one of the battle cruisers,
the fastest fleet capable of actual of
fcnsiye operations appeared in view.
There were more than 100 war YES

by their screen of faithful destroyers,

Guns Large Enough.
Increase in the size of the big guns
does not worry the officers of the
battle cruisers, who say that since
their 13.5-inch guns can sink battle
ship as far as the range can be found,
any bigger guns would add to the
weight of the ship and reduce the
available space for turrets without
sufficient corresponding advantage.
The officers talked about the much
hcralded German l7-inch gun in a
speculative way, but even admitting
the possibility of mounting it on a
warship, they did not show any
great concern.

Of
WAR WRITES
FRIEND HERE
GERMAN SUBJECT WHO WAS
PICKED UP ON THE STREETS OF
LONDON AT THE OUTBREAK OF
WAR WRITES FROM CAMP.

Werner Greye, young German who
has been in the employ OF Love &
Thurmond, cotton factors, for some
time, received a letter from an old
friend who is detained as a prisoner
of war in a detention camp on the
Isle of Man and from the tone of his
letter it seems that this youth will be
glad when the war is over and he is
restored to liberty.
The young man, X. Unterberg, was
in London at the outbreak of the war
and was picked up by the officials and
sent to a detention camp to there re-
main until hostilities cease. The let
ter which bears the censor's stamp,
was received by Mr. Greve, who was
more than delighted to hear from his
old friend, who as a prisoner of war
must chafe at the confinement, but at
that he is better off than thousands of
his countrymen who are fighting and
dying by the thousands in the trench
es along hundreds of miles of battle
front.
Following is the letter in full, writ
ten in good English and a very clear
legible hand.

My dear old friend:
| was much surprised to receive mat
funny post cards of yours from U. S.
A, via Bremen, in fact, have often
been wondering where you might be,
and ! several times had a mind to
write to Bremen to inquire about your
actual whereabouts, but as a matter
of fact we are only allowed to write
two letters a week and | always put
it off for want of an opportunity | am
interned since the oath of October,
1914 nearly a year and one-half, so
you can easily imagine that by now
am pretty well sick of this life. To
pass the time away | am playing a
great deal of football and besides am
taking lessons in Spanish; otherwise
am as well as possible under our
conditions, and hope that you are the
same. Please write me at once all de-
tails about yourself.

GROWTH OF
JERSEY BAPTISTS

Asbury Park, Oct. 24.-So enthused
We're the New Jersey Baptists, in an
nual session here, by reports of ma
terial gains in membership and fl
nances that the convention today in
dorsed a campaign for a $3.50, 900
building fund for Peddie Institute Of
this 100000 Will be spent for a new
junior dormitory, similar amount
for classroom and administration
building, 100000 for an infirmary and
$40, 100 for a small dormitory. F..
1Wayland Aver, of Camden, president
of the convention, has promised $25,-
600 il $225,000 can be raised.
:. The past year has been a banner
one for New Jersey Baptists. The
gross gain in membership was 541S,
but deaths and removals left the net
gain. 36S8 and the total membership
is now 77,549. The number of church
es is 374. The total convention re-
ceipts last year, as stated by Treas
urer B. F. Fowler, of Haddonfield,
were $6S,064, but there is a deficit Of
1882. Last year the deficit was $2695.
A new enterprise, launched this
year at the suggestion of Secretary R.
N. West, is the raising of "sus-
tanning membership fund" of $4,000
yearly to be used to meet emergen-
cies. President Ayers annual address
today was devoted to a plea of CO.
operation. He urged more liberal pay
for missionary pastors and asserted
the growth of the Sunday schools was
not keeping pace with the day schools.

TOMATOES ARE
STILL Demanded

-
Tomatoes are stilY wanted. The
price is also still high for the kind
of soft fruit that is now coming in. 1t
ran yesterday from 25c to 35c a bas-
ket.
The boat at the Broad ST. bridge
will be buying until Saturday and
Minch Bros. are loading a barge.
Everything in the shape of a toma-
to is being gathered and some things
that are not. A farmer out about
Carlls Corner had filled his contract.
and having a nine-year-old boy who
had been quite Industrious picking
tomatoes, he said to him, "Son, YOU
have been a pretty smart boy, helping
Pop, now there are two rows of to-
matoes which you may pick for YOUR
self and have the money I will take
them in on my load and you may go
along and sell them''
The boy said he would take two
rows but he would rather select two
rows in another part of the field. This
was agreed to and the boy got Z bas-
kets. which he took in and sold for
62c basket
When the trade was over and no
more thought Of, the boy told how he
had filled the baskets with Turn-the-
Lane apples, and topped them off good
with tomatoes and sold them.
The apple tree stood in the two
rows he had selected and the ground
beneath them was covered with fallen
apples!

INVOLVED

Armed with warrant, Constable
Peter P. Custis went to Paulsboro
night before last and arrested Irving
Harris, and brought him to the office
of j.. Ellsworth Long, Justice of the
Peace.
The charge against Harris was false
pretense, but it may develop into a
more serious charge, if the hearing
shows to that intent.
There is something like $1,000 in
volved, according to what is limited.
Harris gave bail in the sum of $500

MOUNTING
TAX RATE

The tax rate for Bridgeton is S2.15,
the highest tax rate that has ever been
suggested for the city.
Last year the tax rate was s2.O3.
which was the highest tax rate the
city had had up to that time.
Never before had the tax rate
amounted to 81. The average rate
was about $1.9O.
This vastly increased tax rate
comes, too, upon very largely ad-
vanced assessed valuations, and in
spite of the very considerably in
creased ratables brought about by
new buildings.
This tax rate of $2.15 is based upon
anticipation of receipts of $50 900 or
more. which includes all of the water
rent collections for 1917.
AS an illustration of the increasing
tax burdens, take the following taxes
paid by members of City Councilmen
upon their residence property:
In the Third ward a residence
which paid taxes of $97.26 in 1911,
fl" years ago, will pay this year
sl1S.71.
In the Fourth ward. a residence
paying taxes of $437S in 1911. will
pay $500 this year.
In the Second ward a residence
paying taxes in 1911 or $17.74, this
year will pay $2O35.
A residence in the Fifth ward in
1911 paying taxes of $3262, this year
will pay $37.55.
A residence in the Third ward that
in 1911 paid taxes of $62.3S, this year
will pay $77s3.
Thus it will be seen that the five
members of Council paid taxes in the
aggregate upon their residences in
1911 of $253.7S. This year, five years
later, the aggregate taxes to be paid
upon these same five residences is
$310.S4, or an increase of a little more
than 20 per cent

SPEND VAST
SUMSFOR WILSON

Long Branch, N. j., Tuesday-Hen-
ry Ford, automobile manufacturer and
pacifist, is going to spend a great
sum of money to try to get President
Wilson reelected. He came to Sha-
dow Lawn today to see the President,
told him he had opened headquarters
in the Biltmore Hotel, New York, and
would Immediately publish page ad-
vertisements in all the newspapers of
prominence in the United States, tell
ing farmers and working men why
they should vote for President Wilson
on November Z.
Mr.. Ford brought copies of adver-
tisements, which he showed to the
President for his approval.
When Mr. Ford called on the Presi-
dent about fortnight ago he said to
reporters that he would not contri-
butte a cent toward the democratic
campaign fund, but now he has an
nounced his intention of spending
many thousands of dollars in adver-
tising for the democratic national
ticket. He said this evening that he
was going to take off his coat to help
Wilson carry New York State" and
would work with all his might from
now until election day.
