Station How to Destroy the Dandruff Germ BY A SPECIALIST That the dandruff germ is respon sible for nearly all the diseases to which the scalp is heir, as well as for baldness and premature gray hair, is a well known fact, but when we realize that it is also Indirectly responsible for many other diseases as well, we ap preciate the importance of any agent that will destroy its power. We are therefore, particularly pleased to give herewith the prescription which an eminent scientist states he has found after repeated tests, to completely de stroy the dandruff germ in from one to three applications. It will also almost immediately stop falling hair and it has in numerous cases produced a new hair-growth after years of partial bald ness. This prescription can be made up at. home, or any druggist will put it up for you: 6 ounces Bay Rum, 2 ounces do Composee, one-half drachm Menthol Crystals. Mix thoroughly, and after standing an hour it is ready for use. Apply night and morning, rubbing into the scalp with the finger-tips. If you wish it perfumed, add 1 drachm of your favorite perfume. While this prep aration is not a dye it is unequalled for restoring gray hair to its original color. —Advertisement.

Beidleman, Senator and Mrs. Charles Kline, Mr. and Mrs. Cyrus Woods, and Mr. and Mrs. Francis Shunk Brown, and the dozen or more members of the Governor's staff went to the auditor ium immediately after the new chief executive of the Stale had clasped some 4,000 hands at the reception at the Capitol. Because of the recent death of Mrs. Brumbaugh the dancing was discon tinued while the Governor was in the big room. He only remained a few minutes—just long enough to tell the ■IOO or more guests how glad he was to be their guest and to wish everybody a continuance of a good time. Chestnut street auditorium never appeared to better advantage than last evening. Massed flags and bunting formed an attractive background of a color scheme that was made brilliant by the pretty gowns and conventional black and white of the masculine dress. A band under the direction of Cornelius B. Shope and an orchestra under Fred Weber's leadership play ed the kind of music that helped make the affair one of the most successful dances of the year. During the even ing the great party turned In for an old-fashioned "Dan Tucker" during which Frank H. Hoy, Jr., acted as master of ceremonies. Just before Intermission Governor Brumbaugh and party arrived. Es corted by Senator Beidleman and Charles E. Covert, president of the "Big Q" Society, the broadly smiling Governor marched into the hall while band and orchestra swung into "Hall to the Chief," and the great audience arose and applauded. Because of the late hour and the fact that the new Governor was really fatigued after a long and strenuous day and evening. Senator Beidleman asked that the usual receiving line be dispensed with. Governor Brumbaugh spoke for a few minutes and then bowed and marched out of the hall while the musicians played "Auld Lang Syne." Among those present were many members of the Legislature, State offi cials, members of the ".Big Q" Society, their wives, daughters and friends. The Rev. Harvey N. Blckel, of Pottsville, spent yesterday at the homo of his brother, C. M. Bickel, 1509 North Sixth street.

To secure this without making personal canvass of the city, the Ladies' Auxil iary of the hospital is staging the clever operetta "Papa's Daughters" to be presented by local talent at the Majestic theater, on the evening ol' Monday and Tuesday, January 25-26. Nearly everyone knows a good show —when they see it. But everyone does not know what It. is that makes a show good. A show to be interesting and "classy," must be full of "snap" and "pep"—effervescent with comedy, joyous with life, touching in tender sentiment, perfect in plot, startling in denouement and resplendent with costuming. Such a show is "Papa's Daughters," the new operetta. The plot is perfect in detail, the lyrics are the height of the song makers' art, closely and con sistently following the text of the libretto; the lines abound with clean, sparkling humor, while thoughout there is interwoven a tender love story of subtle appeal. Special atten tion has been given to stage settings and costuming, the scenery and cos tuming all being new and of the linest grade. Everyone is looking forward to the presentation dates with keen interest, as Harrisburg theatergoers will then have an opportunity of seeing a lirst class production in every respect. The pleasure of seeing it will be greatly enhanced by the knowledge that this finished production is made possible through the efforts of Harrisburg's own talent. Mr. and Mrs. Edward Evans and daughters. Elizabeth and Esther, of Lancaster, are guests of the former's parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Evans, 267 Sassafrass street. Mrs. Mary E.

Are lots in good sec tion and individuals and whole proposition high class and bona fide? Full quick reply essential." The following reply was received by the Harrisburg Chamber of Com merce: "We have no connection with demonstration car. Am not famil iar with their proposition. Can not advise." The Harrisburg Chamber of Com merce officials say that, since tho dem onstration and expedition coines from McAlester, it is very significant that the representative business body from that city has no connection of knowl edge of the affair. The local chamber is of the opinion that the proposition ought to have at least the indorsement from the McAlester chamber. Although not disposed to interfere with the sale of high clasS real es tate in Harrisburg by out of town in terest, the chamber feels that Harris burg people should act with full knowledge of the telegrams exchanged relative to the people in question. It is suggested that people who are con templating spending their small sav ings in Oklahoma land be advised to exercise the utmost caution and make no deals until the indorsement of the best banks, business firms and public bodies in McAlester be procured. ' ' —■—-■ y //J\\\\\^ What We Say It Is IT Is Diamond Prices Are Fixed For Many Years Ahead The London Syndicate controlling 98 per cent, of the world's supply of Diamonds has fixed the price of stones to cutters for many years to come. This concern, knowing that Diamond mining becomes more expensive and the percentage of fine quality large stones decreases constantly, has dis counted the future by fixing prices so that each sale brings a higher price. In 20 years this increase has amounted to about 200 ner cent. The one thing the Syndicate did not foresee was the present war, which has stopped Diamond mining com pletely. Consequently the Syndicate stopped selling. When it resumes sales, prices will be higher than ever. It is this condition that makes the "Diener Grow a Diamond" plan espe cially advantageous to Diamond buy ers. Come in and let us explain.
