The news of the death of
John A. Cole, in Dodge City,
came as a shock to Meade peo-
pie last Saturday evening. Two
weeks ago, while returning
from Garden City, he was
thrown from the running board
of a car in which he was being
taken to where he could get a
supply Of gasoline, and his
hand severely cut by a tin buck
ct which he was carrying. He
was at once taken to a hospital
and after a few days returned
home, Within few days
symptoms of tentanus develop
ed and he at once went to the
hospital at Dodge City. Within
a few hours after arriving there
it became evident that there
was but little hope of bis re-
coVery, and at 3 o'clock, August
3rd, The end came. Mr.. Cole
was an old timer in Meade
county and counted among our
most highly respected citizens.
John Allen Cole was born in
MeadevilIe, Pennsylvania, Oc-
t0ber 6,h, 1862, and in 1881
moved 10 Reno county. Kansas.

it? w. B. NJ.
Answer-Wash the scalp and hair
every week or every three or four
days, using tincture of green soap,
and rinsing repeatedly with tepid
and finally cool water. Then rub
into the scalp, here and there by
parting the hair, some of the fol-
lowing lotion:

Trimming the War Budget.

Many billions Of dollars have been appropriated
by congress to carry on the which the end Of
the conflict makes it unnecessary to spend The
national debt will be heavy enough, at the best and
every dollar that can be saved will help to
shorten the period during which the people must
struggle along under the burden.
1t is a trying time for those who are managing
the finances of the country. While the war was on
any expenditure was justified long results
obtained 1t is different now. There is a different
standard Of values, It IS difficult to decide
what items Of expense are justified and what are
not.
It will be unwise to stop work rapidly
to upset industrial conditions. The change back to
peace-time production must be made gradually How
10 do this is the question.
OF course those who have fat contracts will urge
that the good of the country demands that they be
allowed to fill them. A powerful influence will be
brought to bear upon congress tending to carry US
past reasonable limits. Our statesmen have chance
now to show how far their patriotism rises above
political considerations.
The tri-cities very much interested Putting
patriotism above the desire for profit is prob
lem. We can do a good deal either to help or to
hinder the revision Of the nations budget
