8. No government official will say

Now-what is the conclusion?
I. Was the announcement of the
new rays of remarkable power some
bodys dream?
2. Was the naval consulting board
expert either liar or maniac? The
board is not made up of that kind of
men. Furthermore, his statement was
NOT DENIED.
s. Did Edison boast wildly when
he said he had solved the last war
puzzle? Well-you can number 100
magical inventions from Edison's
brain. Can you number one boast?
4. Was the navy department talk
ing through it's hat when it said u
boats were unmasked 10 miles away?
). Is the high government official
who said Edison had finished a job
that would make MIN the worlds
greatest man" CRAZY?
g. Is the Westinghouse company
TURNING ITSELF INTO A PRISON
because it believes that will attract
labor in these times Of labor short
age? .....
7. WHY DOESN'T SOME HIGA
OFFICIAL PUT THESE SPECULA-
TlONS TO REST BY AN OFFICIAL
DENIAL OF THEM ALL?
Isn't it plain that, instead of more
than the facts being revealed, there
exist more facts than have even been
limited at?
Jules Verne predicted the U-boat.
John p. Holland built it.
II. G. Wells in his "War of the
Worlds told how the invading in
habitants of Mars used against the
earth folk a powerful light ray that
burned everything in the path it
swept. i
Is Edison ready, through a Westing-
house-made machine, to turn this light
on the German sharks?

4. July 20 the navy department per-

a new growth. Don't wait until the
hair root is dead, for then nothing can
help you, but get from your druggist
about four ounces of Partisan sage and
apply as directed-it don't cost much
and there is nothing you could use
that's any better. 1t was DR.. Sanger

lighted with the first application, for
Your hair will be right-looking, all
itching ceases and your scalp feels

sages with Partisan sage are all that
are usually needed to destroy the
germs that cause dandruff to form,
and very soon you should be able to
see the new hairs coming in. Pari-
