EXPLAINS WHY MEN
ARE GROWING BALD

Thousands of men are growing bald every
day and don't know the why. Many
of them never expect TO save even what hair
Is left.
This is indeed pity. says specialist, be-
cause badness usually from careIessness
and anyone who gives the scalp little atten-
ton should always have an abundance of good
healthy hair. Dust and dirt help to cause
badness by clogging the pores in the scalp
and giving the dandruf germs fertile ground
for breeding.
The treatment is very simple: Shampoo at
least once in ten days and destroy the dam
druff germs by applying frequently Partisan
Sage. a delightfully."- efficient preparation that
the Red Cross Pharmacy is now recommend
ing as the surest treatment to stop falling hair,
TO remove dandruff and TO refresh and invigor-
ate the hair roots.

Sage is very little and druggists everywhere
have been authorized to offer it with guaran-
tee of perfect satisfaction money returned

CANADA'S BREAD PRICES UP.
Now % Cents Loaf in Quebec--Caused
by Advancing Wheat.

Montreal, Jan 27.--The prices OF
bread have been raised two cents per
loaf in the city OF Quebec, from twenty
to twenty two cents and general adj
vance III bread prices all over Canada is
expected in the near future as the re-
suit of the continued rise of flour prices
which in turn have been caused by the
steady advance Of cash wheat prices.
Since the beginning of the new year
wheat prices at Winnipeg have advanced
from twelve to thirteen cents bushel
and the prices of flour have been raised
81 As per barrel since Sept. 8, 1915, while
May wheat in the latter period has risen
over forty-one cents per bushel.
As yet bread prices in Montreal have
not been advanced, but that they will
be seems inevitable. The local bakers
claim that it is now almost impossible to
and still sell bread at the present rate,
The most plausible reason for the con-
tinued advance of flour prices given is
that the western Canadian farmers are
holding back wheat. These farmers
have their wheat holdings stored in ele
vators of which there are now plenty
and they have been to the banks with
these certificates showing their holdings
and raised money ON them. They are
now holding until such time as they be-
lieve that the wheat market has reached
its highest point before they sell. An
other factor is the huge export demand
which is being felt by the Canadian mil
lers. Their mills are running to capa-
city day and night to fill these foreign
orders at good prices. These orders
come first and the domestic trade next,
as the former bring the best prices.
To supply the home market dealers
have to pay the same prices which are
being obtained for export and all round
there is pinch. Therefore, the bankers
are at the mercy of the millers. The ex-
tent of the export demand can be seen J
by the order which the western Canada !
-four mills have just completed which |
includes one order for 800 carloads for |
the French government and there are
many more larger ones for other allies.

Austrian Charge Wants to Know What
Action America Is Going to Take
Concerning Merchant Ships That
Come Into Port Armed.

Washington, Jan. 27-Baron Erich
Zwiedinek, charge of the Austro- Hun
garian embassy, yesterday asked the
state department what the United States
intended to do in the case of the Italian
steamship Verona, which arrived in New
York with two guns mounted at her
stern. Indications are that the Austrian
government may enter protest and no.
tify the United States that any other
merchant vessels permitted to sail with
guns aboard, even if intended for de-
tense only, will be considered hostile
craft subject to being sunk without
warning.
Yesterdays inquiry was the same as
that made by Baron Zwiedinek in the
case of the Italian steamer Giuseppe
Verdi, which reached New York with two
guns mounted aft. The Verdi was al
lowed to sail on her return trip. Stuff
Gent time has not yet elapsed, it was
said, for Baron Zwiedinek to receive in
structions from his government as to
the course to be taken.

The Colossal Philippine Blunder.

/ The passage of an act of Congress CON-
uniting the United States to the evae-
uation of the Philippines in two years
or in four or at any specific time in the
near future would be a criminal blunder.
I! 1t would be a serious blow to the NOR
ais of the native population. 1t would
be provocation to trouble with any
power which happened to covet the is
lands. 1t would be harm to our ma
tional self-respect, since in our hearts
we could regard it in no way save as a
cowardly abandonment of a sacred duty.
Our rashly assumed tutelage of the
Philippines has cost us much in mon
ey in lives and in worry. 1t would have
been better for us, perhaps, had we
never taken them over from Spain, on
the ambiguous tenure which attaches
them to u.s. But the fatuous idealists
who now urge severance of the tie ig
more or pervert all the moral obliga-
tions of our act when we ratified the
treaty of Paris. We bound ourselves
then not to turn the islands loose in
the community of peoples to be the
prey of their own half evolutionized poll
ticians on the one hand or of imperialist-
ic greed on the other. We engaged our
selves to raise and develop them to
competent standard of civilization and
self government within and to protect
them from aggression from without.
There was really no period visible for
such task. Assuredly no one thought
it could be accomplished in twenty
years and no sane person now thinks
that it approaches accomplishment. The
Filipino politician remains in the child
ish stage of selfish unscrupulousness. The
people, according to all authorities,
worth considering, are devoid of all civic
sense as it exists in the Occident. A
large part of the population ranges from
down to savage, and the re-
ciprocal feeling between these races and
the more cultivated Filipinos is one of
fierce hatred and contempt Here we
have all the elements of bloody chaos |
and unqualified corruption, should our
influence be removed.
The foreign menace is equally plain |
to all sensible men. So long as we
continue to hold the islands it is prob /
able no direct attack viii be made upon /

iensive position to a mere protcctorate

DEFENCE OPENS

Alleged Mo-
tives

Providence, r. l.. Jan. 81 Counse
for Mrs. Mohr stated that she would gC
on the stand In her own defense at yes
terday's hearing soon after the prose
cution had completed its case.
Mr.. Cushing, in opening, said, Mrs
Mohr knows nothing OF the admissions
of the murder excepting what she has
read in the papers. The evidence will
show, l think, that DIR. Mohr was a
faithess and cruel husba"d and worth
less citizen perhaps. We are not going
to attempt to work the so-called 'un-
written law Such defenses are left to
the West and South. New England has
no such defenses. | would not have the
temerity to present such a defense.
"The state accuses Mrs. Mohr of in
stigating the crime it has seen fit to
ascribe to a variety of motives"
The attorney cited the alleged motive
OF jealousy, saying, Jealousy is founded
in affection. 1t is not cold and calcu-
lating thing. For some reason the state
was not satisfied with the motive and
they 60 step further and allege COW
etousness for her husbands property.
The state would have you believe she
was lovely cold blooded woman cal
culating to get her Husbands estate"
Mrs. Mohr was in tears almost con-
tinuously while her attorney was speak
ing. At times she showed intense an
guish and was comforted by others of
her counsel.
Continuing, Mr. Cushing said, "NFe will
show you that Mrs Mohr was not dis

that there was no assignment of the
suit for hearing. There could be none
until the contempt proceedings had been
decided"
ut is true that Mrs. Mohr was jealous
of her husband. She loved him in spite
of long and untold abuse. She hoped
for reconciliation some day. She new
err had any murderous intent against her
husband and never conceived any plan to
do away with him. Doctor Mohr was a
man of charming personality and was
kind and generous when he wanted to
be- Mrs. Mohr wished to preserve his
life; not to destroy it,"

MINERS HEAD WINS
ANTI-STRIKE FIGHT
The United Mine Workers Convention
Votes Overwhelmingly for
Peace Plan.

indianapolis, Jan. 27.-The United
Mine Workers yesterday decided not to
suspend work April /, pending the fran
ing of the new wage scale with the op.
orators when their present contract ex-
pires.
The delegates who voted against a
suspension in case new wage scales have
not been drawn by April represent AGO..
900 union miners. The resolution
against suspension was carried by an
overwhelming majority.
Resuming the fight to determine
whether a general strike shall be called
April l if wage agreements have not
been reached by that time, the conven-
tion listened yesterday to many short
speeches by miners from widely sepa-
rated districts.
David Fowler of Scranton, Pa, repre-
senting $4,000 anthracite miners, said
his district does not want strike. "The
anthracite operators are ready to make
a settlement agreeable to the miners,
we believe" he said, "and we want to
be reasonable"
The vote was taken following many
speeches in which the non suspension
policy of President White was unyary-
ingly Endorsed.
Those favoring a strike wished to hold
a club over the operators. Those OPP
posed to suspension declared such ac-
ton would open union markets to nom
union coal.
1t is now assured delegates said, that
wage scale negotiations will go on I'M
der peaceful conditions at least until
the miners are certain that the oper-
ators will not grant their demands. The
miners appeared confident a satisfactory
agreement would be reached.
Negotiations will begin at Mobile,
Ala, Feb. 7.

Look and Feel Clean, Sweet and

Life Is not merely to live. but to live well. eat well, digest well, work well, sleep we'll. look we'll. What a glorious condition to attain. and yet how very easy 1t is if one will only adopt the morning inside bath.
 Folks who are accustomed to feel dull and heavy when they arise. split ting headache, .stufty from a cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach, can, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy by opening the sluices of the system each morning and flushing out the whole of the internal poisonous stag nent matter.
 Everyone, whether ailing, sick or we'll, should. each morning, before breakfast, drink a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the previous days indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. The action of hot water and limestone phosphate on an empty stomach Is wonderfully invigorating. It cleans out all the sour lamentations, gases. 5; aSte and acidity and gives one a nlendid appetite for breakfast. While
 ou are enjoying your breakfast the v5ter and phosphate is quietly ex- acting large volume of water from s.V blood and getting ready for

 The millions of people who are

Fall Flowing.

Arkansas is just ending a great campaign for clovers and in the next two weeks thousands of acres will be seeded to rye or wheat or oats as a clover and pas ture crop. There will be more green fields in Arkansas this winter than ever before. The Ex- tension Division of the Univer- sity of Arkansas appreciates keenly the splendid cooperation it has had from farmers organiza- tions, bankers, farm bureaus and farmers and now it wants the same fine help in a campaign for fall blowing, especially in the cotton counties. Where cotton fields are now infested with the boil weevil farmers must blow under all stalks and leaves and trash or they will be foolish to plant cotton in those fields. IL will be unwise to gamble on a cold winter to destroy the weevil. The wise course is to blow as fast as the cotton field is cleaned and SOW rye or wheat for cover and pasnure crop. Then the next stop will be to rake all trash from about fences, ditches. logs, stumps. old sheds, and houses and burn same before the rainy season begins. Get the weevil or it will get us.
