The Labor Day weekend is upon
us and unless we have been unusual
ly wise and careful, there are a vast
number of repairs to be taken care
Of before the fall season sets in.
Let's start with the face. The
chances are the summer sun hasn't
done 1t any good. The texture of
the skin Is cOarsened, there are a
good many new squint lines around
the eyes, and the color is nOticeably
darker. A series OF good facials,
either professional or at home, will
go far towards improving the skin.
Get good cleansing cream and a
good night cream and use them both
regularly. You've got to get at this
and stick with it unless you want
Christmas to find you still looking a
bit ragged.
Re-condition Your Hair
How about the condition of your
hair? Did you, as suggested early
in the summer, remember to keep it
covered when yon were in the sun
for any length of time or did you
fling your hat aside with careless
abandon while relaxing on the
beach? If you did, your hair is
probably dry as straw and streaked
a thousand different shades. So
you'll have to get to work on it. too.
A series of oil shampoos will help,
or, If you prefer, oil can be rubbed
into the scalp and left there over
night and then removed with a good
shampoo. In cases of extreme dry
ness this latter course will probably
be more effective. A good hair col

Creek, it was a favorite dodge of
the law violators hauld into court
from that particular territory to
prove that the offenses charged
occurred "above the Pike county
line" In cases of the kind, the
presiding judge would, in good
faith, dismiss the charge for lack
Of jurisdiction.
In 1887, probably for the first
time, murder was committed on
this strip of land and the offender
was indicted in both Floyd and
Pike. The prisoner was first ar
raigned in Floyd and the presiding
judge held that the crime was
committed in that county, and he
was tried there. Thereupon, the
charge pending in Pike county
was dismissed, because the man
could not be twice placed in
jeopardy for the same offense.
Henry P. Scalf, great grand
son of Tandy R. Stratton, living
on the Stratton estate, says that
he has voted and served as an
election officer in both Floyd and
Pike and that he has served on
juries in both counties, but that
he does not know to which county
he legally belongs.

April 20, 1875, on the Washington &

miles an hour. It was invented by
Professor c. c. Page. The first cleo
trio locomotives to be put in service
on railroads were on the Baltimore
& Ohio railroad in 1895, for use in
their Baltimore tunnels, and were
built by the General Electric COM
pany.
