We never did; but we have
seen the clothing at this time
of the vear so covered with
dandruff that it looked as if it
had been out in a regular snow
storm. No.nced of tltts snowstorm.
As the summer sun would
melt the falling snow so wilt
melt these flakes of dandruff In
the scalp. It goes further than
this: it prevents their formation.
It has still other properties:
it will restore color to gray hair
in just ten times out of every
ten cases.
And it docs even more: it
feeds and nourishes the roots
of the hair. Thin hair becomes
thick hair; and short hair be
comes long hair.

THI3Y CONCURRED.
Supeilntendent neemcr on behalf of
the olllclals at the Hillside Home ex
pressed neatly eoneuirence In the sen
timent of the resolution.
It wns decided to meet at the Hill
side Home on the morning of Wed
nesday, Dec. 2S, for the purpose of mak
ing the annual intentoiy.
Dr. Paine spoke In praise of the c n
leitalnnient given a few evenings ico
by the employes nt the home for the
amusement of both the pauper and
Insane Inmates. The entei talnment wns
a drama, "In tho Trenches," and v 113
produced under tho direction of (he
mation. Mis, Beemoi. Dr. Paine said it
was a bource of much benefit to the in
mates, both sane and Insane seeming
to enjoy It hlghlv. He hoped a sim
ilar uffalr might be git en soon again.
A mistake in the case of Mi. Mjiv
MiDonough, of lellows vtieot, t.ia
prevented by Mts. W, 15. Duggan. of
the Associated dimities. Her husbf-nd
lecentlv had both legs cut off and Is
in the Hillside Home She wanted aid
for herself and lite chlldicn. The boar J
was on the point of giantlng her le
qtiest when Mis Duggan entered the
mom and said Mrs. McDonough's hnme
wns not a lit place tor childten to be
l cued. It was also stated that a .-b-ler
of tlie applicant was willing to caie
for seteial of the childten The boiul
decided tei see that the chlldien wu
provided ten, but not to aid the uiothei.
Mis. William Hume, of the Tenth

be discharged. She did not want to
live with him. The ellrectois being

MRS. DONAUUH'S STORY.
The mother of lite chlldien, Mis
Daulul Donahue, of Hemlock street, ex
cited the ditec tots' pity. Although her
oldest child Is nine years old, the wom
an did not appeal to be oter twent"
fite yeai.s ot age. Her husband Is
living, but has been sick and unem
ployed. They wete $100 In debt and
could not get ctedlt. It was voted to
give her id for ono month.
Five dollais wns voted to Mis. Mc
Oiall, of Decker's court, whose hus
band is out of woik. She wanted the
money to pay lent and avoid being
ejected.
Michael Rionnan, of Meildian street,
was given permission to go to the Hl'l

The board did not think It wise to
