GIRLS! THICkEN AND
BEAUTIFY YOUR HAIR
AND STOP DANDRUFF
Try This! Your Hair Gets Wavy
Glossy and Abundant
at Once.

To be possessed of head of heavy,
beautiful hair; soft, lustrous, fluffy,
wavy an dfree from dandruff, is mere
ly matter of using a little Dander-
ire.
1t is easy and inexpensive to have
nice, soft hair and lots of it. Just
get 25-cent bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine now-all drug stores rec
ommend it-apply little as directed
and within ten minutes there will be
an appearance Of abundance, fresh
ness, fluffiness and an incompatible
gloss and lustre, and try as you will
you cannot find trace of dandruff
or falling hair; but your real surprise
will be after about two weeks USE,
when you will see new hair-fine and
Gowny at first-yes-but really new
hair-sprouting out all over your
scalp-Danderine is, we believe, the
only sure hair grower, destroyer of
dandruff and cur for itchy scalp,
and it never fails to stop falling hair
at once.
If you want to prove how pretty
nd soft your hair really is, moisten
cloth with a little Danderine and
carefully draw it through your hair
taking one small strand at a time.
Your hair will be soft, glossy and
beautiful in just few moments-a
delightful surprise awaits everyone
who tries this. 8

DRINK A GLASS
OF REAL HOT WATER
BEFORE BREAKFAST.
Says we will both look and feel
clean, sweet and fresh
and avoid illness.

Sanitary science has of late made
rapid strides with results that are Of
untold blessing to humanity. The lat
est application of its untiring re-
search is the recommendation that it
is as necessary to attend to internal
sanitation of the drainage system Of
the human body as it is to the drains
Of the house.
Those of us who are accustomed to
feel dull and heavy when we arise,
splitting headache, stuffy 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 flush
ing out the whole Of the internal
poisonous stagnant matter.
Everyone, whether ailing, sick or
well, should, each morning before
breakfast, drink glass Of real no:
water with teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate in it to wash from the
SIOHldCU, HVcI anu UOWCio VIC PiS'
vious days indigestible waste, sour
bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleans
ing, sweetening and purifying the en-
tire alimentary canal before putting
more food into the stomach. The
action of hot water and limestone
phosphate on an empty stomach is
wonderfully invigorating. 1t cleans
out all the sour lamentations, gases
waste and acidity and gives one a
splendid appetite for breakfast. While
you are enjoying your breakfast the
phosphated hot water is quietly ex'
tracing large volume of water from
the blood and getting ready for a
thorough flushing of all the inside
organs.
The millions of people who are both
cred with constipation, bilious spells
stomach trouble, rheumatic stiffness
others who have sallow skins, blood
disorders and sickly compilations, are
urged to get quarter pound of lime
stone phosphate from the drug store
This will cost very little, but is suf
ficient to make anyone pronounced
crank on the subject of internal san
itation. IL

Dear Editor: Have recently been as

warded to my new address.
Several thousand soldiers are being
trained here and forty eight doctors
were sent over from the Medical Off
GERS Training Camp at TT. Oglethorpe,
Ga. te help get them in shape for
France some time in the future.
My only regret is that did not enter
the service sooner. No one knows. eX-
cepting those who don uniforms, how
ENROLLING it makes one feel to be in
the service of the dear old L. $. A.
For the sake of those contemplating
entering the service, will say, the more
you understand the better you can aI-
preciate. They say the only time a
soldier is not soldier is when he is
sick or won't eat.
Best wishes.

Warning Against Fires.

Bulletin No. 10 from the State COun-
Gil of Defense reads as follows;
This is the time Of falling leaves
and bOnfires
Beware of the bonfire! 1t Is a
menace to the lives of children, and to
property.
Wind and sparks run riot race In
mid air. With their carnival comes
the soft-sterping undertaken, and the
clang of the fire-gOng.
Rotted leaves make fine fertilizer.
The leaf mould will pay thousand
fold in increased fertility for all labor
expended.
Conserve the leaves by burning, not
burning.
Bonfires OH city pavements cause
ruin which means dollars from the tax
payers pocket.
Remember always: Carelessness
which starts fire in wartime Il
treason.

CORRALING RABBITS

Killing rabbits at five cents head for the benefit of the American Red Cross is the latest diversion of the young women of Casa Grande, the prosperous farming town nestling in the midst of 100000 acres of irrigated land in Arizona. The young women, aided by white men, Indians and Mexi- cans gather each night in great circle and with much shouting, beat ing of brush and laughter drive the jack rabbits toward portable corral of woven wire which makes possible the end desired. The drives take place each evening and on an average 800 pairs of rabbit ears are collected each day. The rabbits are killed by thrown clubs. The county pays bounty for each pair captured. The farmers re. joice over the results because the dry season on the lands now irrigated has driven the rabbits to the green fields where they are eating much $35 ton hay. '
