SEBORRHEA IS
KILLING HAIR

Everyone knows that the men
and women OF America are losing
their hair.
The prevalence of seborrhea (the
dandrutf diseased is appalling. But
lust as science proved that dand-
ruff was due to baciIli, science now
offers the remedy.
1t is FAMO.
FAMO destroys the dandruff ba-
cilli and stops the seborrhean e1-
cretion. 1t stops all itching OF the
scalp.
1t penetrates the scalp and unless
the hair roots are entirely dead. it
encourages and stimulates, tho
growth Of new hair.
The ingredients Of FAMO have
never before been used in the treat
,nent Of the scalp, But they are
we'll known to medical science.
Three years were spcnt In per-
fecting FAMO in one OF the great
pharmaceutical laboratories Of De-
troit
FAMO makes the hair and scalp
healthy. 1t nourishes the hair in
a wonderful way and makes it lus-
trous and fluffy.
FAMO comes in two sizes-3S
cents and big bottle at 81. Your
money back if you are not satisfied.

Halloween Quiet In Matawan
sr speciaI torrespordent

BIZ SpeciaI c--orrespondenf
MATAWAN, Nov. Halloween in
Matawan was exceedingly quiet this
year. This was due to the fact that
the borough fathers thought best not
to let the youngsters have their way
as in previous years. and arranged to
have the town patroled by the home
defense police force.
Not a bell was rung or a whistle
blown. This was due to the fact that
the churches were guarded, and in
place Of the usual merriment, when
fires are built, bells rung and property
damage done to O more or less extent,
the night was one of gloom for the
boys and today. only an old worn out
wagon is left here and there, and the
property damage Of the borough is
slight.
The boys seemed lost last night with
nothing they could do without an Of
f1cer OF the home defense at their
Iheek,i and remarks of 1T tbet they
weren't so good when they were kids
could be heard on every side.
But with all the guards the boys
got in some good times, and there is
more than one gate missing today
and more than one step stone ~
over into the street. N--Z
whole was a good little-lIhH
night. much to the regret of the boys.

Old Fashioned Political
Rally In MdtaWan Tonight
50 Special oo-espOnssnf.

MATAwAN, Nov. 1:-with a torch
light procession and bands the local
Republicans will open the campaign
tonight, as far as Matawan Is con-
cerned, with a good old fashioned
political rally. Following h parade
the townfolks have been requested to
assemble in the high school auditori-
um in Broad street n listen to adj
dresses and pleas for election by
Governor Walter E. Edge, Republican
candidate for United States senator;
Congressman Chandler, Robert Car
son and others.
When seen last night by an EVEN
ING NEWS reporter and pressed for
the fact as to whether or not Cover
nor Edge was really to visit the town
or II it was just an advertising stunt,
DR.. Orwil vanwickle, the recognized
leader of the local Republican party,
said that he had been assured Cover
nor Edge would appear and address
the Matawan people without fail.
From the way the affair is billed It
would seem that Congressman Cham
dler Is to be the principal speaker of
the evening. He is slated to tell the
inside story Of the great war as seen
by Washington. Mr. Chandler Is a
convincing speaker and his address
should prove very interesting.
During the meeting music will be
furnished by the Keyport Band.
