Curling Hair Like This
Promotes It's Health

For those whose hair is straight
and lank nothing better could be
recommended than the silmerine
method. This insures a beautiful
curliness which is perfectly natural
in appearance, and the health of the
heated iron is used. A few ounces
of liquid silmerine-which can of
course be had at any drugstore -
lasts a long time. so it is quite eco
nomical to use. 1t is pleasant to use,
and Is easily applied with a clean
tooth brush. The hair should be
moistened the full length before re-
firing.
The pretty wavy effect in evidence
in the morning is surprising to those
who try this simple method the first
time. The liquid also serves as an
excellent dressing, giving the hair
delightful gloss.

Lines of Upper End
Township Established
by Official Survey

Completing their survey to estab-
lish accurately the lines of Lykens,
Wiconisco and Williams townships
and Gratz borough, a commission
appointed by the court in April filed
their report to-day.
Investigation by the commission,
which included County Surveyor
Warren j. Daniel, George w. Roth
ermel and Edgar ID. VanNewkirk,
showed that the "stone corners" and
practically all the trees designated
as markers for the township lines
established in 1889 were still stand
ing. In one or two instances the
trees could not be found but stone
piles were found near them to mark
the points.
Compared with the lines of the
late r. Ellsworth Davis, the expert
employed to fiXe coal land valuations,
it is found that his boundaries did
not coincide with the ones found by
the commission in their survey. To
establish permanently the boun-
daries, markers have been placed
about 1900 feet apart almost the
entire width of the county and maps
showing the exact location of the
boundaries have been prepared.
1t is found that according to the
lines reported by the commission a
number of properties are divided in
half, part lying in each of two
townships and in one instance a
property is divided into three parts
in Washington, Wiconisco and Ly-
kens townships, although it had all
been assessed in Washington town
ship. A number of other correc-
tions in assessments will be neces-
sary it is said.
The commission was appointed to
make the survey and settle the dis
pute about the township lines.
