Dandruffy Scalps
Lead to Badness

It's indeed a pity that thousands OF
men and women are neediessly growing
bald, says a prominent hair specialist,
who states that loss of hair usually
comes from dandruff, and anyone who
gives the hair and scalp just a little at
tention should always have an abund-
ance of good healthy hair. Dandruff
causes badness by clogging the scalp
pores SO that the hair roots are deprived
OF proper nourishment besides giving the
microbe that causes it fertile ground for
prolific breeding. The remedy is very
simple Kill the dandruff germs-the real
hair destroyers-by applying little Of
the genuine Partisan Sage that you can
now get at any American drug store. 1t is
one Of the simplest, safest and best meth
DDS to surely stop itching scalp and fall
ing hair, remove every trace oe dandruff
and invigorate the hair roots to grow
new healthy hair. It's the discrimina ling
woman's favorite dressing because it's
free from sickness, delicately perfumed
and will not streak the hair, while even
one application makes it bright-looking,
soft and fluffy.
BE sure to get the genuine Partisan
sage (Girouxs) for this does not stain the
hair and is guaranteed.-Adv.

Peace Note Aftermath"

The editor Of the Manchester (N H,
Union deals with Prussian methods If
warfare in semi -jocular manner
but the indictment of frightfulness is
Just as dsmning. 1t says:
1t viii DE remembered that Cor
many's peace notes, last winter were
merely the prelude to intensif,ed
frishtfulness. Failing a conference
looking to peace on the basis of a
swapping back. all around. the U-boat
was unleashed.
NOW, another peace effort has failed.
ana Germany is still running true to
form We say the peace effort has
tailed, because while only our own
government has made formal reply Ia
the Pope. recent official utterances in
both England and France forecast re-
plies similar to our own. Germany evil
IDENTIFY understands that the incident is
closed, and signalizes her accordance
OF our refusal to talk peace with her
by attacking one Of our group Of hos
ritais in France.
II Is a perfectly characteristic Hun
nish thing to do-just the sort Of a
think that We must expect as we go
into the war. It will require vigorous
mental effort on our part to learn to
accept the situation cody. because the
thing is utterly ahhorrent to us-some-
thing we could not possibly do or think
Of doing. All our reverence for law, all
our sportsmanship. all our human
sympathies rise in rebellion against
this lawless, unmanly, inhuman thing.
But we must accuston ourselves to it.

The Suffrage Burden"

George DID.

Just as the English have had TO accept
the murder Of children from the air.
and the Belgians have had to accept
slavery, and the French have had to
accept wanton dissertation of temples.
For evidently to the German mind this
is all a part of the game.
Let us try to look at it from the Ger
man point Of view. There Is behind
the lines. say cobbling outfit, where
partly-worn shoes are fixed up. 1t is a
useful thing. 1t reduces war costs. If a
bomb can be dropped in it, destroying
several thousand pairs of shoes, tine
machinery, and the cobblers, it is good
military business to do it. 1t adds to
the costs Of the war There is also a
human repair shop, where disabled
things labelled men, for convenience,
are fixed up. 1t is profitable to repair
then-costlv not to do so. Drop bomb
or two in this place. and men instead
or shoes are destroyed, surgical appa-
ratus instead OF shoe machinery is de-
moIished. and doctors and nurses, tn
stead of cobblers. are killed. 1t all adds
to the enemv's war expenses-there-
fore is good military business.
Horrible! you say, to think Of flesh
and blood in this way. Yes, but that
isn't the way we think of it, you know.
1t is just the kultur way-kultur, that
for generations has been teaching the
Germans that other peoples are only
FERTILIZER folk" to be plowed in as
manure for the nourishing Of the con-
quering German race.
We'll, we have received the rejoinder
to our reply to the peace proposals.
We expected something Of the sort.
But it isn't the last word in the argu-
ment. It won't be long now before our
man. fighting like men and according
to the rules, will be raining wrath
upon these slayers of the helpless.
