RAILROAD OFFICES
 ARE DISCONTINUED
Government Operation of Railroads Temporarily AholiSheS Offices "i
 Two officials Here.

C. B. Lindsay. district passenger and freight agent for the Missouri Pacific railroad with offices in this city, has been notified that his office has hoen temporarily discontinued on account of the government operation of railroads.
 g. M Dickey. commercial agent for the Cotton Belt railway has not as yet received official information that his office will he discontinued also. but it is very probable, according to state ments made yesterday by railroad of ficials that his office will be tempo rarily abolished within the next few days
 Both officials. however, will prob ably be placed in other capacities and their clerks will also be given posi- tions in other departments.
 Due to the fact of government op- eration of railroads there is now more competition in freight shipments or passenger traffic, and hence the local offices are not considered necessary

SAVE YOUR HAIR
 AND BEAUT|FY IT
 WITH "DANDER|NE"

If you care for heavy hair. that slistens with beauty and is radiant with life; has an incomparable soft ness and is fluffy and lustrous, try Danderine.
 Just one application doubles the beauty of your hair. besides il im- mediately dissolves every particle of dandruft you cannot have nice, heavy, healthy hair if you have dand- ruff. This destructive scurf robs the hair of it's lustre. it's strength and it's very life, and if not overcome it produces feverishness and itch ing of the scalp; the hair roots fam- ish, loosen and die then the hair falls out fast.
 If your hair has been neglected and is thin, faded. dry. scrasgy or too oily, get small bottle of knowlton's Danderine tauy drug store or toilet counter for a few cents; apply a little as directed, and ten minutes after you will say this was the best invest ment you ever made.
 We sincerely Believe, regardless of everything else advertised. that if you desire soft, lustrous. beautiful hair and lots of it--no dandruff no itch ing scalp and no more falling hair you must use knowlton's DanderiHe. If eventually-why not now?

INDIANA DRY.

With one dissenting opinion and that coming from
Judge Spencer who comes from wet territory the supreme
court has ruled that Indiana will remain dry.
That ends it.
Fellows, YOU might as we'll give up the lease and
the fixtures because there isn't a chance now in the wide
world.
Outside of those who obtain their livelihood by deal
ing in liquor, there was general satisfaction in the cities
OF the Calumet region when the news was given by
TINES extras yesterday. now that Indiana was by the
decision OF the highest tribunal in the land ruled dry.
That prohibition would benefit the industrial and bus
mess world in the Calumet region if it is rigidly enforced
IS the opinion of industrial heads and works managers.
The law must be observed however and it is now
up TO the sheriff and the various chiefs Of police 10 see
region and there is stiI plenty of booze hidden away.
There is a lot OF drunkenness, but the regions close proX
unity TO the state line is largely responsible.
West Hammond Will be a rich place. Its saloonmen
will coin money. The poison sold at some of the estab-
hshments over there is pretty cheap stuff When one
saloon puts in six cash registers and has six bartenders

what West Hammond can do. Why if you put down a
dollar for a drink in some of those places they laugh at
YOU if you ask for change. They are making hay while

at all sure the law is observed.
