PARTISAN SAGE
Helps to Put Hair ON Your Head and
Keep 1t There-Fine for Dandruff

Here's good news for men and women
whose hair is falling, who are getting
bald and whose scalps are covered with
dandruf that nothing seems to keep
away and whose heads itch like mad
The Red Cross Pharmacy has secured the
agency for Partisan Sage, simple hair
invigorator that is so certain in its tonic
action and so sure of giving the limit OF
satisfaction, that they sell it with offer
of money refunded if it does not abolish
dandruff, stop itching head, and not only
check excessive loss of hair. but stimu-
late new growth.
Partisan Sage is delicately perfumed
antiseptic liquid, which when massaged
into the scalp goes right down to the
hair roots and furnishes them with the
nourishment that is lacking to make the
hair grow and show more life and vital
ity. Partisan Sage not only stimulates
hair growth, but beauties it so that it
is a favorite dressing of women who take
pride in beautiful hair that appears much
heavier than it really is A large bottle
is ineXpensiye.-Ady.

 Uncle Sam is mighty big and strong but he is not so big and strong that he can afford to break promise. There is not real American in this country who would not fight to make good one, of Uncle Sams promises. When Uncle Sam says anything, that means that his loyal sons and daugh- ters have said it. The honor and interests of this splendid nation are | in the keeping of it's splendid cit Szenry.

eleven years experience in detective

offers from more than one reputable
detective agency in order to fill out
his term es police chief here and has
couple outstanding, one of which
he may accept.

whether he will affiliate with one of

conjunction with another man whose
name is not to be made public at
present. At any rate, he will con-
tinue to make his home In Ashland,
working from here. To the layman,
the fact that enough work of this
kind exists In the valley seems out
of reason, but Chief Porter assures
us that there are scores of inquiries
which come to his office monthly
which he cannot handle as chief of
police but which have to be turned
over to an agency. He states that
detective work is more profitable
than policing.
While at the head of the Ashland
force, Mr.. Porter has established a
fine system here and held the police
force up to high standard of eff
cheney.
