FALLING HAIR MEANS DANDRUFF IS ACTIVE Save Your Hair! Get a 25 Cent Bottl* of Danderine Right Now--Also Stops Itching Scalp. Thin, brittle, colorless and scraggy hair is mute evidence of a neglected scalp; of dandruff--that awful scurf. There is nothing so destructive to '• the hair as dandruff. It robs the hair of its luster, its strength and its very life; eventually producing a feverish- ness and itching of the scalp, which if not remedied causes the hair roots to shrink, loosen and die--then the hair falls out fast. A little Danderine tonight--now--any time--will surely save your hair. (Jet a 25 cent bottle °of Knowlton's Dandeilne from any store, and after the first application your hair will take on that life, luster and luxuriance which is so beautiful. It will become wavy and fluffy and have tWe appear­ ance of abundance; an incomparable gloss and softness, but what will please you most will be after just a tew weeks' use, when you will actual­ ly see a lot of fine, downy hair--new hair--growing all over the scalp. Adv. Heads--She Lost. The room was full of little girls In I^nk slips and pigtails.... They sat in rows at wooden desks, as quiet as mice. Over them presided ft sweet- faced damsel, stern withal. The lessoft concerned coins of the realm, and they had been through the entire range, from pennies to silver dollars. One little miss, however, was singularly .in­ attentive. Her gaze was fixed upon a playful sparrow on the window-sill, and she had no thought for coins. Sudden­ ly the teacher pounced upon her. Plac­ ing a half-dollar on the pupil's deck, slvj demanded: ^What's that?" "Heads," came the InsftaiitaneeaB reply. New Art Disguises Uniforms. One of the latest conceptions for rendering military uniforms less vis­ ible on the field of battle js to use ma­ terial in pronounced irregular alternat­ ing patches of contrasting light and dark colors with navy outlines. Some of the darker patches are out­ lined in a atill darker color, and small­ er spots of contrasting color break up the color effect of some of the patches, so thut the effect of uncertain light and shade is produced, to cause, the garment to lose its identity by min­ gling with the background.

"Darling," she said, "we simply can­ not keep a cook. We've had three this week and a new one is coming to­ night." "Ah," said the shyster and ambu- Innce-chaser, "you are lax In your methods. Each cook should sign a contract, and, once signed--ahem!. They cannot leave! Now, I'll write out a tractcon--I mean a contract, and have the new cook sign it. And there you are!" \ On the stroke of 6:30 Marie Antoi­ nette McCarthy, the new German cook, weighing 238 pounds, arrived. The shy­ ster lawyer approached her carefully with a baseball bat. "I have a contract for you to sign before you go to work. Fll read it: " 'The party of the first part, Marie A.

We have made a good deal of fun of country folk who "set store" by the phases of the moon in planning their work or trying to forecast the weath­ er. The general idea seems to be that things will not turn out well when done "In the dark o' the moon," or when that luminary is waning, on the theory that a growing moon symbo­ lizes increase, advance, growth, Where­ as a waning moon'symbolizes decline and decay. But a new and somewhat more philosophical turn is given to the matter by an angler who writes in The Country Herald (England) and who suggests a novel explanation for tlu> periodical dourness of pike as follows: "An old angler friend rather surprised me this week by asking my opinion of the effect of the full moon upon pike prospects. I had nothing to say, because I had never considered there was any relation between the two.. But he thinks so, his view being that the jack take advantage of a moonlight which almost turns night in1o day. to feed. Consequently when the angler arrives the following morning thejr ap­ petite is satisfied and they have tio de­ sire for his lures." • Waiter Couldn't See the Joke. Dipping the other day into Mrs. Stuart Menzies' biography of Lord William Beresford, there is the follow­ ing good story: "It was at the Raleigh club" (writes Mrs. Menzies) "that Lord William and one of his brothers, Lord Marcus, I believe, for some reason, or perhaps for no reason, put the ball porter into the refrigerator. "The heat of the man's body, or his language, caused the Ice to melt, so one of them drew from the tap some water into a tumbler and sent it with his compliments to a friend in the smoking room, describing It as Garcon Glace (literally 'iced palter'), "The porter was left in a little too long, and there was some trouble af­ terward. This became known as the Garcon Glace incident. "Everybody thought it funny ex­ cept the waiter, and he had to be paci­ fied." British Manicure Lady. "In English barber shops you do not have to pay for mirrors, elaborately tiled floors and a manictfte girl," writes Homer Croy in Everybody's. "Over there a manicurist Is consid­ ered the last vocable, in the way of smartness. The manicure girl hasn't the run of the shop as she has5 here; she lias a little cage down in one cor­ ner, where she Is bottled up as if she were a rare liquid. When a man wants to have any light* housework done -on his hands he thrusts one of them through the bars, while the pro­ prietor hurries up with a newspaper for him to read. In America we would be insulted if the owner of the shop put something into our hand to read while the manicure girl was working on us. In England the art of jolly­ ing the manicurist is unknown." Feminine Instincts. Woman today is a product of age­ long inheritances. Her special and peculiar faculties (only some of \l*hich are here discussed) have been devel­ oped through the activities of her sex in thousands of bygone generations. These faculties may properly be called "instincts" because they represent in­ herited experience. They are particularly interesting as a subject of study for the reason that they are suggestive of the history of feminine occupations since the earli­ est dawn of human existence on the earth. * Faith Sublime. > We wonder if there ever was a woman whose faith in her husband was so absolute that when she found the small shreds of a letter In a fem­ inine handwriting in his wasteba*ket she didn't try to piece them together but dismissed the matter from her mind with the reflection that of course it was a business communication.--Co­ lumbus (O.) Journal. May Be a Hairless Race. The hair growth on various parts of the body is regulated to perform s specific purpose. When we tamper with this growth for centuries we de­ velop new forms. Perhaps this is why baldness is a modern affliction, en­ tirety unknown in primeval periods. Eventually the human race will prob­ ably be denuded,of all hair. Good in Various Vegetables. Potatoes are said to improve the hair, which may account for the won­ derful heads of hair In Ireland.

PATRICK: "A stone lay deeply bedded in the clay until one of strong hand uncovered it, heaved it aloft and made it the capstone of a noble edifice." This is his description of his life. He was a centenarian wait­ ing for his death when he wrote it, and to his eyes the career of the Apostle of Ireland was a blend of human worthlessness made capable of lofty achievement by the call of God. It is a great man's humble estimate of his share in remaking a great nation. And it is correct as to the humble beginning, and the mighty accomplishment, and the abiding of humility in the bosom of the man who wrought so mightily. Not without reason has the nalie of St. Patrick been held in veneration through these many generations. There is nowhere a teacher whose services for learning exerted so wide an influence in a time so critical for all culture. There is nowhere a states­ man whose activity so completely reformed the character of any people. There is nowhere such a national hero : whose fame is sounded across fifteen centuries and can still stir emotions of ardent enthusiasm' far beyond bis nation's shores. There is nowhere t saint whose teachings are blended like his with the destinies of his nation, so that the invocation of his name can be at once the cry of patriotic devotion and the expression of religious venera­ tion.--Rev.

PATRICK'S PLACE OF BIRTH LONG IN DISPUTE FROM Boston a bitter cry 'hat the mention of a Scotch birth­place for St. Patrick is not to be tolerated. The controversy is an old one. and this is not a place for taking sides, so we will iv.?rely present the rival views to the inter­ ested reader.* It would appear that, lih>: Hniner, more than one spot Is prepared to de b.?tt|e for the, honor #<>f being Patrick's birthplace--Scot­ land, Wales and Brittany being all contestants. First let our well-read correspond­ ent spr^ii; "I have read every author worth rending on the question and with only one desire, namely, to find out the truth, and have no more doubt on the question that he was born In Brittany than I have that he was a real live human being. English and Scotch desire to appropriate every­ thing and everybody worth while. Is the cause of the error in the case. For every line that can be said about his French birth one hundred are written on the British (island) side, hut such claimants have no tor Ilealy's theories. :uh1 then ask yourself if there is a shadow of the Scotch claim left. Yet we are con­ tinually dinned with the dogmatic assertion that "St Patrick was born in Scotland." ' ' * Oh the othep-fmnd, to quote from. Archbishop Healy of Tuain: "Philip O'Sullivan Beare, a mnn of learning and authority, declared that Patrick was born in Bretagne. He was the first writer of note who put forward that opinion, for ^an­ cient writer known to us ever ad­ vanced It." The difficulty has been to settle where exactly Bonnavem Taberniae is, which is the town Pat­ rick mentions la his "Confession" as his ^ome. ' Lannlgan believed In a French but npt ® Breton l)irthplace. Doctor riealy states that his view was n modification of O'Sulllvan's. - "He says that the Bonnavem Taberniae of the confession w'»s the same town as Boulogne-sur-iner, in Picardy and was the birthplace of our saint. But the confession does not state that Bonnavem Taberniae wpjs Patrick's birthplace, but that it was the place where his father had a villa from which he himself was cawled off a captive." Doctor Healy himself states: "It appeurs to us to be quite clear from the account the saint gives of him­ self that he was a native of the Ro­ ut his preface as follows: A| "I had conjectured that It should be sought near the Severn or the 4ft Bristol channel. The existence of three places named Banwen (which 9ft may represent Bannaventa) in Gla- morganshire opens a prospect that the solution may possibly lie there." The reader Is now in possession of the names of the chief authorities modern and ancient on the subject, and he may weigh O'Sullivan and a* Lannigan against Doctor Healy aud Cardinal Moran, or Colgan and A*, O'Flaherty against Keating and O'Hanlon. Or he may weigh l'rofes- A* sor Bury and Sir John Ithys against them all. Whatever the merits of the question it cannot be a dogmatic 'ussertlon on either side. But even if St. Patrick had been born in what is now called Scotland or Britain, in neither case could it be claimed that he was what is meant by either of the modern terms, "Scotchman" or "Anglo-Saxon." The word Scotus In those days meant Irishman pure and simple, and was only given to Scotland owing to the Irish colonies which undertook civilizing work on her west coast (Argyle means liter- ally Arergaedltal, the land of the Irish).

IRISH LOVE OF EQUALITY In Some Way# it Has Tended to Pre­ vent a Closer Unification of the Great Race. The art and literature of the Celt naturaliy is pure, noble, moral, re­ fined and idealistic. Besides, his love of equality has a leveling effect, anil a tendency to uniformity of social and economic ideal*. This love of equal­ ity has, however, prevented a closer unification of the Irish race iu matters vital to its independence as a separ­ ate and distinct people. Their sensi­ tiveness, It must be admitted. Is the real reason why, notwithstanding their acknowledged valor, they lost their in­ dependence ; and mainly because of this natural Instinct, they cannot and never could accept conquerors or. mas­ ters with that humility thajt would have lulled suspicion and created a new starting point for a successful, dash and break for independence. This sensitiveness absolutely prevents forgetfulness, and the hatred engen­ dered by centuries of persecution can­ not be dulled or dispeHed by promises QUAINT BELIEFS IN IRELAND Leprechaun and Banshee Have Been ftecognized "Institutions" of Em­ erald Isle for Centuries. • The two preternatural beings most spoken about in*Ireland are the lepre­ chaun and the banshee.

The leaf now recognized as the national emblem is that of the white clover, but the name shamrock is generic and Is applied also to the purple clover, the speedwell, the pim­ pernel and to the wood sorrel. The clover of two or four leaves was held sacred In....the festivals of the Greeks. The one of four leaves, when carried about, is supposed to Irsure success at play and confer the |A»wer of detecting evil spirits. The lover may put It under his pillow Und he will dream of his beloved, or th« maid­ en may slip It into her sweetheart's shoe without his knowledge and It will Insure his safe return from any Jodrnev. It may he employed to pre­ vent the wearer's, being drawn Into military service. Is said to be a cure for lunacy, and Is still, among the Irish,, regarded as magical, even sacred.

Following is an invocation to the Shamrock- of Luck, common in parts of Ireland and the Isles: " i Thou shamrock of good omena.

The Celt undoubtedly was the most purely moral and religious of all the barbaric races, and this necessarily grew out of his lofty Ideals and lively ImQglnatlon, which demanded pleas­ ures of mind rather than thought of future food and raiment. This made for Improvidence, but who will say the gain is uot greater than the loss?
