How to Judge a
Woman by Her Hair

There are always the well-known
and semi humorous methods, such
as saying brunettes are quick-tem-
pered. But There is real common
sense in just noticing whether the
hair Is well kept to judge a wo-
mans neatness. If you are one of
the few who try to make the most
Of your hair, remember that it is
not advisable to wash the hair with
any cleanser made for all purposes.
but always use some good preparation
made expressly for shampooing.
You can enjoy the very best by get
ting some canthrox from your drug
gist and dissolving a teaspoonful in a
cup of hot water when your shampoo
Is all ready. After it's use the hair
dries rapidly with uniform color.
Dandruf, excess oil and dirt are dis
solved and entirely disappear. Your
hair will be so fluffy that it will look
much heavier than it is. It's lustre
and softness will also delight you,
while the stimulated scalp gains the
health which insures hair growth

VALLEY
A. A. MEETS TO
MAKE FALL PLANS

Good Will, Me-, Sept. 20.-(SpeciaD.-
At the fall meeting Of the Kennebec
Valley High School A. A., the follow
ing schools were represented: Gardin-
er by H. R. Nevers; Hallowell by w.
L. Beal; Waterville by B. A. Ladd;
Lawrence by H. c. Robinson and B.
H. Merchant; Good Will by E. L. AL
len. B. A. Ladd of Waterville was
chosen chairman Of the Games Com
mittee. vice Ginger" Fraser.
An important step was taken in di-
viding the baseball league into two sec
tons; a Somerset section, consisting of
Skowhegan, Madison. Good Will and
Lawrence: and a Kennebec section.
consisting Of Waterville, Cony, Halo
we'll and Gardiner. Several advantages
should come from such an arrange
ment. Two county championships will
be settled; six game schedule will be
required; this schedule will be extended
over the month Of May with chance
for International or outside games:
May 30, June 2, and June should be
tentatively reserved for the post season
series. These dates may be easily
filled with the other clubs In the
league on short notice. It Is expected
that clubs like Cony which have played
other clubs for number Of years may
now come into the league for they will
still have half Of their. playing schedule
for outside games. The schedule will
be published by Oct. LIST. Owing to the
shortness Of the playing season, post
poned games will not count in the
standing and the highest percentage OF
games won will count. On this basis.
as agreed before the season started.
Good Will won the baseball champion
ship, although 1t was unable TO play its
second game with Waterville, which
waterville was obliged to postpone on
account of wet grounds.
The date Of the track meet was re-
ferred to Mr.. Ladd who will announce
the date later. The second annual road
race will be held the forenoon OF Oct.
%. Gardiner won the cup last year
and the competition will be keen for
It this year. This Is the date Of the
Colby Maine game at waterville.
As the requirements Of the X. v. H.
8. A. A. constitution, which was plan
ned before the Maine High School Ath-
letic agreement, cover all the state re-
quirements, its members automatically
become subscribers to the state agree
ment.

Maine Farmers

are busy men, all the year round, and
have so much to do, that they don't
always take time to look after their
health: They say they haven't time to
be sick, so many of them go about
their work, even when they are feel
ing poorly. AS matter of fact, most
farmers could keep we'll, most of the
time, if they would take something
occasionally, to keep the stomach and
liver in order and the bowels regu-
lated.
For many years, IL. F." Atwood's
Medicine has been friend indeed to
Maine farmers. 1t is a remedy that
quickly corrects the little ailments
and keeps man feeling ready and fit
for good days work.

CITY FINALLY AGREES
TO REFUND LIQUOR
TAX HELD INVALID
Claims for Payments Must Be Filed
Before October l

Those who present their claims for
the refund of the liquor tax by October
1 will get their money.
An ordinance to this effect was
passed unanimously by the commission
yesterday afternoon. A petition bearing
the names Of $500 persons who re-
auested the refund of moneys paid by
them for the liquor inspection was for
mally filed with c. B. Lloyd, secretary
of the commission, by Attorney John
Altman, who has waged the fight for
the return of the tax during the past
month.
When the ordinance was presented to
the commission. yesterday afternoon for
adoption 1t was passed without COM
ment by any of the commissioners with
the exception of Mr.. Barber, who stated
that he thought more time should be
given those who wished to file their
claims with the city.
| Within go days after the names are
filed with the commission City Comp
| troller Levy must report to the COM
mission the number of petitioners and
the amount involved. Approximately
$4,000 was collected by the city on the
liquor inspection tax. 1t ia not thought
nearly this amount will be petitioned
for. The ordinance passed yesterday In
lvolved some stringent regulations,
among which are that no person is to
receive the refund who used the liquor
for unlawful purposes.
The name, address and the time the
fee was paid must be verified by the
petitioner before the comptroller or his
deputy. 1t will be unlawful for any
lperson to file an untrue statement.
Many other regulations are required
under the act. Commissioner Ward and
Comptroller Levy will have entire
lcharge of the matter and the moneys
Imay be paid at whatever time Mr.. Ward
might specify.
