Tells How to Make Hair Grow Thick and Lustrous on Bald and Thin Spots. Thousands of men ldnd worlsen“uct a5 every lay ane n' Know 18 reason why. This is indeed a pity, says a hair specialist, who states that baldness usually comes from carelessness, and that aunyone ‘who gives the hair just a little atten- tion should always have an abundance of good, healthy hair. Dandruff and dirt cause baldness by clogging the b) pores in the scalp, and giving the dan-| druff germs fertile ground for prolific breeding. “The treatment is very’simple: maVe the ditt by shampooing at loast once in ten days and destroy the dan- druff-germs by frequently applying a littie of the real Parisian Sage, a most efficient preparation that the best druggists everywhere are now recom- mending as one of the quickest and safest treatments to surely stop itch- /ing scalp and falling hair, remove all dandruff and to properly nourish and invigorate the hair roots. Parisian Sage is also the discrimi- nating woman's favorite hair dressing because it gives her halr a softness and luster that fascinate and compel ‘admiration. A generous bottle costs but little from Lee & Osgood Co., who guarantee it to you. —_— LOCAL PRODUCE GROWERS FORM ORGANIZATION. F. E. Peckham Elected President at s ing Held Saturday.

There are those who ‘think that there is coming out of the conditions of the present a brighter future. A saloonless " nation something to which some people are looking for- 1920 has been a date set by some active workers for national pro- hibition. When it was first stated that in 1920 we can write ‘“Prohibi- tion” in our constitution, those who made the declaration were called vis- ionaries. However, it is said “that the liquor interests have published in their magazines this statement: “We see the handwriting on the wall. doom is pronounced.” As a well known lawyer of this city said a-few days ago, “A few years prohibition was a joke, but it lool now as if it were coming very soon. There are of course diversities of opin- fon about this matter. But what are some of the direct- facts that give hope for the fulfilment of the proph- ecy of a saloonless nation? There are at least eight and possibly many more reasons for the early prospects of a saloonless nation. We mention first the rapld and co: stantly accelerating prosress of - pro- hibition in the United States. Prior to Jan. 1, 1915 there were nine states der prohibition. They were Maine, nsas, North Dakota, Georgia Ok- lahoma, Mississippl, North Carolina, Tenn@ssee, and West Virsini on Jan, . a_prohibition amendment o ing dtate constitution of Artsons went into effect. Since that time, Jan. 1, 1915 N laws have gome into effect states of Alabama Arkansas, Golorado, Idaho, Iowa, Oregon, South Carolin: Washington: and on Nov. 1, of this year, prohibition became effective in the state of Virginia. On the 7th of November of - this year, _Michizan, Montana, Nebraska, South Dakota and the Territory of Alaska by vote of the people, took their stand for pro- hibition, so that at the present time 28 states are prohibition states, al- though the Nebraska law becomes ef- fective May 1, 1917; South Dalkota, ly 1. 1917: Michigan, April 30, 191 Montana Dec. 531, 1918.

The third reason for the hopeful- ness of a saloonless nation is based upon. the fact that the recent victories of Nov. 7 when Montana, Nebraska, Michigan -and_South Dakota = voted statewide prohibition; Idaho made statutory prohibition constitutional; Utah and Florida elected -governors and legislatures pledged to prohibition, Kentucky, nearly dry now. plans to vote upon the question—were “more | their platforms.

The action of the great railroad systems in abolishing the sale of liquor on their tralns and in the railroad stations is significant as well as their rules not to_employ men who. drink. 1 read the other day an interesting article which said “If prisoners had their way liquor would ge. fi mew York state.” Petitions said tain the names of 1000 immates. of Sing Sing, Auburn, and Dannemora state prisons of New York, were filed with the legislative, committee recent- 1y at a hedring in support of the state wide prohibition bill. But we will mention our lakt pros- pect for a saloonless nation. It is a Qquestion of time. When congress will give the people an opportunity to vote they will vote right, undoubtedly. But in many states the legislature meets only once in two vears. Unless a spe- session iz called there would be ome delay from this cause if con- gress should act in the “off yenr.” Brethren, 1 think I have bidbuzht before you sufficient data to-start vou discussing the subject: for as dark as the picture looks if we p_our eves on Norwich or Connecticit with its $2 per cent. of popula under territory: the outloalk for a_saloonless nution if. w. eves for the v of the nation.

The Public Utilities commission has { transmitted its fifth annual report to the govemnor coverng the year® end- & June 30, 1916. The report. con- s a general review of the work of the year together with certain rec- ommendations and detailed summaries and_analyses of the financial condition of the several ciasses of companies under its juris- !diction. A brief abtsract of the report cotiows.

Fourth reason: “The situation = at present shows 40 states with fewer saloons in all of them together than are in the city of New York” and there are practically. 24 states abso- lutely dry.

And then, there is the qulet of the Cadfllac, which is a thmg beyond— a thing unique in itself. cars. X Steadiness is purely. a relative term,- d;fi’ering in degree with different Many a car might satisfy you in that respect until you had experienced the effortless ease of the Cadillac—then you are spoiled for less luxurious roadability. You may have experlenced what you beheved to be the acme of travel comfort, . But when you-come to the Cadillac, you know that you have found what travel comfort really is. The gallantry with which many a car struggles up a hill, thrills you with pleasure, until you have mounted a hill in the Cadillac. Then it dawns upon you that you have not known before, what hill mastery really means, The Cadillac does niot triumph over a hill *by hard work—it breasts the brow of itas a bird breasts the breeze. You may travel many a plsasurablc mile in many a car, and still never be free from the discomforts of vibration. But when the Cadillac,shows you true smoothness, then you see how much ‘more pleuunbh every mile might be. A man can be comparatively comfortable in one chair, or one car, and infinitely more comfortable in another chair—or in a Cadillac, : of comfort they enjoy which makes Cadillac owners im- patient of anything less comfortable. Their thought is—why should we be con- tent with comparative comfort when it is so It is the increased measure easy to secure the superlative? 1t is thé seemingly little things that are ' the really big things in motoring—things in which the Cadillac shows you the difference. ; Surely, no one who gives the subject real 7 : - thought would let a few hundred dollars first- =~ cost stand in the way! It is the difference between merely travel- % ing, and traveling in luxury. It is a difference that affects every' mo- . P ment of every hour you ride in a Cadillac, from one end of the year to the other. Of course, you can be content with less GENEE R and still get over the ground—but is there any 5 P - good reason why you should not-get over the AN e ground with the greatest possible enjoyment? The more you study the subject, the more - you will be convinced that you are entitled to - . 3% w the most that motoring can give you. ) And that decision means—the Cadillac.
