BY a three hour margin Mrs. VIII
liam Gordon of Clifton Heights, Pa,
fell heir to a fortune of from $s0,00t
to 100000 through the death of Mr.
and Mrs. Edward w. Perrine at Holm
del, N. ].
Mr.. Perrine was Mrs. Gordon's ia
ther, and Mrs. Perrine was her STEP
mother. He and his wife had made
wills leaving their property to each
other, with the exception of 500 he
left to his daughter. Mrs. Perrine's
estate is $4,000, not including her
jewels.
Both died the same day. Had Mr..
Perrine died first his property would
have gone to his wife and her heirs.
She died first, however, and her es-
tate passed to him. Three hours later
he died, and as his sole heir the daugh-
ter now gets both estates.

Preparations for the second annual
Labor Day celebration by the Loyal
Order of Moose are nearing compile

promise a celebration much larger

thing was planned and executed on
short notice. Plans have been per-
fected for long time for Sept. 4.
With assurances pouring in from all
sources that many will be in the pa
rade this year, the committee feels
safe in saying that ninety per cent of
the business houses will have floats
to represent their business.
Riverside park will again be used
for the days pleasure and there will
be no use going out of town for Labor
Day as there will be some time right
here at home.
This is not moneymaking propo-
sition that the Moose are working for
and they do not care anything about
the money part of it, but will feel
amply paid If the day is success,
At the same time, the committee will
strive to make enough money on the
stands to pay the expenses of the eel
ebration.
Every person in Mt. Vernon can
help to make this day one grand sue.
cess by being present and also by
lending his or her moral support to
the proposition.
Program for the day will be an.
nounced later. Stay home, have your
friends and relations come here
Everybody boost for big crowd in
town on Labor Day and the Moose
will do the rest.

From Little Kingdom.
NEGOTIATIONS PROGRESSING

Treaty Must Be Ratified by Both
Branches Of Congress and by Au-
thorities In copenhasen-our Rights
In Greenland to Be Surrendered to
the Danes.
A treaty for the purchase of the
Danish West Indies by the United
States has been negotiated between the
governments of Denmark and the Unit
ed States and In the near future Is to
be submitted to the senate of the Unit
ed States and to the two houses Of the
Danish parliament for approval, ac-
cording to information from Copenha-
gen.
If the treaty is ratified as It stands
in project" form at present the United
States will pay for the islands $685.
100000 and In addition will relinquish
to Denmark the rights of the United
States In Greenland. Greenland is a
Danish possession, and the rights
which the United States will abandon
are merely rights Of discovery, the
scope of which is Ill defined.
The United States win obtain from
Denmark full possession of the islands
Of st. Thomas, st. John and st. Croix
or Santa Cruz, as 1t is better known.
These islands lie about fifty miles off
the east coast of Porto Rico. They
are 142 square miles in area and sup

lands being negroes, who live by the
cultivation of sugar cane.
The Danish ministry has formally
communicated to the United States its
willingness to accept the terms of.
fered by Secretary Lansing for the is.
lands, and the treaty of cession will
soon be signed at the state department
by Secretary Lansing and Constantin
Brun, envoy extraordinary and minis
ter plenipotentiary of Denmark. 1t is
assumed that the status of the islands
Of st. Croix, st. Thomas and st. John
should the treaty be ratified, will be
similar to that of Porto Rico.
New Treaty Peculiar.
The new treaty Is peculiar in that IL
will require action not only by the
American senate and the Danish rigs.
dag, but by the United States house of
representatives as well, since it will be
necessary for the house to supply the
needed appropriation of $25,000,000 to
defray the expense of purchase.
1t is understood that the people of
the Danish West Indies islands are to
have voice in this question of cession
and that the government has given no
tice that before it ratifies the treaty II
would submit the question to the peo
pie of the islands.
1t is stated further that the people
ON the islands are much in favor OF
the transfer to the United States and
that the treaty is so framed that they
are not called on to surrender Danish
allegiance. They may remain Danes
In fact and in name, while enjoying
whatever advantages in commercial
way may result from transfer of the
islands to the United States.
1t Is stated that formal delivery o.
the territory and property ceded shall
be made Immediately after the pay
ment by the United States of the sun
of money stipulated in the treaty ant
that the cession, with the right Of i'm
mediate possession, is to be deemed
closed on the exchange Of ratifications

BEAUTIFUL HAIR, THICK, WAvY, FREE
 FROM DANDRUFF
DRAW A MOIST CLOTH THROUGH HAIR AND DOUBLE ITS
 BEAUTY AT ONCE.
SAVE YOUR HAIR! DANDRUFF DISAPPEARS AND HAIR STOPS
 COMING OUT.

Immediate?-YesI Certain:-that,s the joy of it. Your hair becomes light. wavy, fluffy, abundant and ap- pears as soft. lustrous and beautiful as a young girls after an application of Dandertne. Also try this-moisten a cloth with a little Danderine and care fully draw 1t through your hair, taking one small strand at time. This will cleanse the hair of dust, dirt or exces- sive oil. and in just few moments you have doubled the beauty of your hair. A delightful surprise awaits those whose hair has been neglected or is scraggy, faded, dry, brittle or thin. Besides beautifying the hair, Danderine dissolves every particle of dandruff; cleanses, purifies and invig- crates the scalp, forever stopping itch ing and falling hair, but what will please you most will be after a few weeks use, when you see new hair fine and downy at f1rst-ye+but real ly new hair growing all over the scalp:
 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 exhilahting, stimulating and life-pro- ducing properties cause the hair to grow long, strong and beautiful.
 You can surely have pretty, charm ing, lustrous hair, and lots of it, if you will just get a 25-cent bottle of Know1ton's DanderiDe from any drug store or toilet counter and try 1t as directed.

SOLUTION OF THE
 CLEARING HEADLIGHT EVIL
Society of AAtomobiIe Engineers is
 Getting After Auto Drivers.


 '9t is safe to say that the practical solution of the headlight problem is near at hand. judging from the find fngs of the committee of the Society of Automobile Engineers, which has had the subject in hand for some time past"
 Reports from A. A. A. clubs throughout the country indicated drastic legislative action in several states unless some concrete solution was put forward by the motor car owners" says President Rowe of the and this caused our legislative board chairman to call upon the Society of Automobile Engineers to give the headlight problem the right of way over other questions upon which it is at work. Chairman Yellott will draft a model bill as soon as the en- gineers complete their report and the introduction in the states which are threatened with undigested regulation.
 "The automobile manufacturers have put the situation up to the lamp makers who through their associa- tion, are cooperating with the so- ciety, which is so near a solution that a report is promised before the first of the new year, when many of the state legislatures begin to assemble. Not few fairly satisfactory devices for glare elimination Rave been put on the market and have found the ap- prova1 of the officials entrusted with law enforcement in several states.
