They are nature’s advance warning of future baldness and proof that the dangerous little dandruff germ is busy on your scalp. Dr. Sangerbund, the famous Faris specialist, first discoverod that dan- aruft and falling hair are caused by a microbe. Then came the disgovery of the value of the real Parisian Sage (liquid form) in destroying the dan- druff germ and promptly preventing the further loss of hair. The effect of only three days’ use of Parisian Sage is simply marvelous, and the Ameri- can people have now awakened to the fact that dandruff is just as unneces- sary as it is unhealthy, and that they can be quickly rid of # and save their hair by using a few ounces of Parisian Parisian Sage is sold for not more than 50 cents a large bottle at drug and_toilet counters everywhere.

That an effort will be made which will be widely supported to create an auto bureau separatc from the secre- tary of state’s office to have charge of the enormous amount of work asso- ciated with automobiles was learned this week. The autom)bile associations of Connecticut, including the New Ha- ven club, will endorse the plan, it is understood, claiming that the proper supervision of automobiling and the necessary amount of work to Reep down auto accidents and weed out reckless drivers cannot be done under the present arrangement by which the secretary of state devotes only a part of his time to these duties. That something will have to be done in the near future to solve the prob- lem which the office of the state sec- retary faces as the result of the ever- growiag list of automobile hearings is the opinion of State Secretary Charles D. Burnes, who will leave the office next January. According to Mr. Burnes the work of hearing the automobile cases_under present conditions is a hardship for the secretary. To attend the hearings ae says he has spent a large part of his annuai salary of $1,500 on hotel bills and traveling expenses. The move cases there are the more money he has to spend, says Mr. Burnes. “Now ing, T w: that it's all over but the shout- nt to say I'm glad to get out of it,” said Mr. Burnes. “They expect too much of the secretary the amount of money they give . My office is the most woefully un#-rpaid one in the United States. It must have been bad enough before the attomobile hearings begen. Then the secretary had a breathing spell once in a while, but now there is no letup. “The business in the office of the secretary has trebled since Albert Phillips was in office.” HOW Y, M. C.
