Every reader of this paper knows
that United States government bonds
are the safest investment on earth.
But many Of them do not, perhaps,
know just how to explain their belief.
One of the reasons why United
States government bonds are the SAT-

A New Ally for Prohibition.

Why should not the Prohibition
leaders of the country, in order to
carry out to its fullest extent the
abolition of the saloon, take up the
nroblem of substitute which must
be put in its place?
The Christian Herald believes that
substitute for the saloon can be
found. The most popular form OF
recreation today is the motion pic
ture. It is capable of supplying the
finest sort of argument against any
attempted resurrection of the saloon.
A QUESTIONABLE sent to a large
number of leading motion picture en-
hibitors throughout the country, with
the view of learning the possible ef-
feet of Prohibition on that industry,
produced surprising results. Seventy
two per cent Of the exhibitors en-
pressed themselves heartily in favor
of Prohibition, twenty-five per cent
were Indifferent, and only three per
cent. were opposed to. Prohibition.
The outcome of the inquiry is stated
/ in these words: "The closing of the
saloons removes the most formidable
competitor of the motion picture
business. 1t is confidently expected
that after July ! motion pictures will
leap into new popularity.
There would seem to be most
providential opportunity here for the
Prohibition forces to avail themselves
of this powerful ally in the struggle
that must follow their legislative VIC
tory, to maintain what they have fair
ly won. The Prohibition Party could
not do wiser thing than adapt the
motion picture to their purpose.
The liquor interests do not want to
stay dead. What chance of revival
would they have if Prohibition were
put into the schools, the meeting
houses, the churches and Sunday
schools on week days, the missions
and every other available place
motion pictures showing the wicked
ness of the whole traffic which has
Just been abolished by national de-
cree? These would drive home the
lesson in vivid, realistic, living illus
tration.
John Barleycorn would not have a
leg left to stand on if his inglorious
career were shown to the multitudes
who would crowd to see real good mo-
ton picture films dealing with the sub
iect. The film would thus become an
I irresistible advocate of national So
briefly and sound morals.
We commend the suggestion to all
friends of Prohibition, and especially
to those who have been active in the
late successful campaign. 1t is one
that strikes us as well worth trying.

Gus and will surely ruin your hair if
you don't.
Dandruffy heads mean faded, brittle
scraggly hair that finally dies and
falls out-new hair will not grow
then you are hairless and nothing can
help you.
The only sure way to abolish dan
druff for good is to destroy the germ
that causes it. To do this quickly
surely and safely, and at little ex-
pense, there is nothing so effective as
Partisan sage, which you can get from
Lee & Osgood Co. and good druggists
everywhere. 1t is guaranteed to Danish
dandruff, stop itching scalp and fall
| ing hair, and promote a new growth,
! or the cost, small as it is, will be re-
funded.
/ Parisian sage is a scientific prep
| paration that supplies all hair needs
an antiseptic liquid neither sticky OF
greasy, easy to apply. and delicately
| perfumed.
| If you want beautiful, soft thick
lustrous hair, and lots of it, by al
means use Partisan sage. Don't de-
