Legislative Notes

Governor Holcomb sent the Sunday

passed last week and would have le-
galized the sale of various articles such
as ice cream, soda water, tobacco, news
papers and gasoline on Sunday. This
was the governors second veto mes.
sage on Sunday bill. The bill in
question was objected to on the ground
that while some OF the articles men,
toned are of perishable nature others
can be bought on Saturday just as
we'll as on Sunday.
Mr.. Peasley moved to reconsider the
bill and Mr.. Hartford of Stamford had
it tabled.
The house of representatives by an
overw helming vote adopted a resolu-
ton proposing an equal suffrage
amendment to the constitution. Prior
to the final vote a motion to indie finite
ly postpone was defeated on a roll call
14l to SO. The vote on adoption of the
resolution was almost the same.
In the senate the proposition to have
legislation to permit hotels to sell
liquor on Sunday to guests was quick
~ disposed of when Senator Quiggs's
motion to indefinitely postpone bill
of the character was adopted II to 10.
An appropriation of "a 900 has been
made for publishing William II. Tay-
lor's legislative souvenir. The matter
has yet to be approved by the governor.

Thin SpOts.

Thousands of men and women are
growing bald every day and don't
know the reason why. This Is indeed
a pity, says a hair specialist, who
states that badness usually comes
from carelessness. and that anyone
who gives the hair just little attention
should always have an abundance OF
good. healthy hair Dandrun and dirt
cause badness by clogging the pores
in the scalp. and giving the dandrum
germs fertile ground for prolific
breeding.
Tho treatment is very simple; re-
move the dirt by shampo3ing at least
once IN ten days and destroy the dan
drmf germs by frequently applying a
little of the real Partisan Sage, most
efficient preparation that the best
druggists everywhere are now recon-

safest treatments to surely stop itch
