HAIR AND THE
MARRIAGE MARKET
Too many men have been unpleas
antly surprised to find that their
wife's hair which they had so greatly
admired was only a. switch or trans
formation. We now know that poor
hair is a confession of either
laziness or lack of knowledge and that
fair care with sensible means will in-!
sure scalp health and hair beauty. In :
washing the hair it is not advisable
to use a makeshift, but always use a
preparation made for shampooing
only. You can enjoy the best that is :
known for about three cents a sham-'
poo by getting a package of cantlirox ,
from your druggist: dissolve a tea-;
spoonful in a cup or hot water and j
vour shampoo Is ready. After its use]
the hair dries rapidly with uniform,
color. Dandruff, excess oil and dirt |
are dissolved and entirely disappear, i
Your hair will be so fluffy that it will,
look much heavier than it is. Its
luster and softness will also delight
vou. while the stimulated scalp gains
the health which insures hair growth.

Genuine Prescription
For All Rheumatism
Satisfaction Guarantied or Money
Back. Says H. C. Kennedy
Rlteum —that is the name of the
scientific prescription that is putting
old rheumatism out of business.
Rheuma cures by driving the uric
acid from the blood. It also acts di
rectly on the kidneys and is better for
them than most so-called kidney
cures. •
Porter Smith, Dobbin, W. Ya..
writers: "I have been a great suf
ferer from rheumatism for about 26
years. The disease had become
chronic. I began taking Rheuma with
little faith in its virtues, but was bet
ter from the first day I began its use.
and at this time have no more pains.''
H. C. Kennedy and all druggists sell
Rheuma. and no rheumatic sufferer
can afford not to use it. 50 cents a
bottle. Your money back If not satis

To Renew Complexion
Without Cosmetics
If the excessive user of cosmetics
only knew the impression her artitici
' ality really makes upon others, she
would quickly seek means of gaining a
j natural complexion. Let her acquire
i the mereolized wax habit, discarding
j make-ups entirely, and she will soon
have the kind of complexion that wo
j men envy and men admire. It's so easv
i to get an ounce of mereolized wax at
! any drug store, use nightly like cold
! cream and wash it off mornings. And
the results are so remarkable. Gradu-
I ally the lifeless cuticle peels off. in al
| most invisible flaky particles. In a
! wtek or so there's a brand new com
j plexion. clear, velvety—soft, of girlish
color and texture. The treatment is so
simple, harmless and marvelously ef
fective. the wonder is that every wo
man whose skin is withered, discolored,
! rough, chapped, freckled or pimpled,
has not already adopted it.
| Let wrinkled women quit pastes and
i massage creams which mar the skin
still more and try this more sensible
I treatment: Dissolve 1 oz. powdered
I saxoiite in H Pint witch hazel; use as
i a face bath. Every line will quickly
I I disappear.—Advertisement.

A SIMPLE WAY TO
BEAUTIFY YOUR HAIR
Easily Done at Home and At a
Trifling Expense.
The hair is like a flower —it must
have care and proper nourishment.
Just as a plant without air and water
withers and dies, so will the hair go if
not given proper nutriment. The scalp
must be perfectly healthy and free
from dandruff, as the scalp Is to the
hair what good soil is to plants and
flowers.
If your hair is not pretty; if it is
losing Its color, too dry, matted, falling
out, or If the scalp Itches, you can
Quickly overcome all of these conditions
by using Parisian Sage, which supplies
every hair need. It soaks right in to
the hair roots, stimulating them and
furnishing the nourishment that is
needed for the hair to grow not only
long and heavy, but fluffy, soft, lus
trous and gloriously radiant.
You can get a bottle of this inex
pensive yet delightful and helpful hair
tonic from H. C. Kennedy, or at any
drug or toilet counter. Improvement
begins with the very first application—
besides stopping the walp irritation it
removes every bit of dandruff. The
use of this unequaled hair tonic will
surely give your hair new life and
beauty.

STORY RITEN'
By the Messenger Boy
I The subjeck of this is a interview,
' the editer of the Telegraph saying
i to me the other day the interview is
j one of the most tellin' ways of bein'
a reporter. He said Irvin Cobb, who
jis to talk about himself here this
(Thursday, is the biggest interviewer
! in the U. S., he havin' got a famous
: interview out of Lord Kitchenier,
which the great British War officers
said he didn't get at all, but just
made up, which the eriter says is the
big test of a reporter.
So I went into the dary lunch
counter down the alley for to Inter
. view the prop. Tony Macaroney about
| what he dose with come-backs and
, | how he makes his soup, thinking his
i expreshuns on this subjeck would
make good readin' for Harrisburglers.
.! Bein' nervous at tlrst I paid a nickel
for a cup coffee and a couple dough
: nuts to chew on while collectin' my
■ thoughts. Pretty soon a feller come
in and set down one side me and
| ordered soup; then another come on
the other side me and ordered selery
and began chewln' on It, and it bein'
tough It made a awful racket In my
• ear, which together with the man
. | swiilln' his soup on the other side,
| : upset my thoughts about the inter
view and made me mad.
»| So I up and ast Tony where he
!lkept his hog-trough and he better get
. 1 it out, and also a hatchet for to chop
!up his celery before he give it to
. I customers to wear out teeth on. Then
; | the chewln' noise and the soup-swal
lowin' stopped on each side me and
I felt two pairs eyes borin' right
through me. Tony looked onimous
' at me and said what did I want, and
then I ast him what he did with
come-backs and what he made soup
out of. He up and jumped over the
counter and upset some puddin' and
grabed me by the neck and chucked
! me out the door assisted by the two
slobs I had been criticlsin'. So I didn't
get a interview as I Wanted.

TALK OVER PHONE
ACROSS CONTINENT
[Continued from First Page.]
THEODORE N. VAIL
ployed in their earliest experiments
and had answered:
"I hear you perfectly. Do you hear
me well?"
Bell —"Yes. your voice is perfectly
distinct. It is as clear as if you were
here in New York instead of being
more than 3,000 miles away.
"I -want to switch in another tele
phone and talk to you through that.
Bell —"I am nw talking through an
exact duplicate of the tlrst telephone,
which was made in June, 1875. Can
you hear me?" „
Watson —"1 hear it perfectly, though
less distinctly than the other, of
course." , .
(Now switching back to the stand
ard transmitter.)
Wonderful Progress of System
Bell —"What wonderful progress has
been made by the Bell system since
then to enable our voices to be trans
mitted over a circuit of 6.800 miles
j without the least apparent distortion
or weakening."
Dr Bell's voice leaped across the
I wires from New York to San Francisco
in 1-15 second.
In 1876 the limit was two miles,
from Boston to Cambridge, and one
had to have pretty sharp cars and a
pretty good voice at that: 18844 saw
Boston and New York linked: then the
900 miles to Chicago were bridged in
'95. One after the other came Omaha,
Denver and Salt Lake City. Yesterday
the oceans were linked by a great talk
canal over whose copper strands Bell
and a hundred officials and business
men who attended the celebration sent
their voices in electlcal waves, at the
rate of 2,000 per second, from coast to
coast , ~ ,
The celebration was held in the
office of Theodore N. Vail, president
of the American Telephone and Tele
graph Company, at the New York end,
and in an office of the Pacilic Tele
phone and Telegraph Company, at San
Francisco. Between these two points
130.000 special poles have been erected,
carrying two complete circuits of four
Wires, each 3.400 miles in length. At
frequent intervals along this line
special coils were introduced to
| strengthen and hold the tiny current,
I and almost countless inventions and
! tricks of the telephone scientists' skill
! have bene used to make the transmis-
I sion perfect.
Crosses Susquehanna
From New York the new line sweeps
down first to the outskirts of Phila
delphia, leaps across the Susquehanna,
zigzags up and down the Alleghenies,
dips into the murk of Pittsburgh, goes
straight on through Ohio and Indiana
to the windy city of Chicago, then
traverses the plains, crossing Missouri
at Omaha, and then It runs along the
very brink of the Grand Canyon and
up over the snow-capped peaks of
Pueblo and the lofty city of Denver;
then it turns northwest to Salt
City and dips down through the foot
'hills of the Rockies, past the orange
orchards of California and finally
crosses the Sacramento river to San
Francisco. From the Statue of Liberty
to the Golden Gate, at the rate of
56,000 miles a second, infinitely less
than the wink of an eye.
For years a corps of more than 550
engineers and scientists in the Bell or
ganization have bent every energy
toward the means of making the feat
possible.
At New York the men who wit
nessed the demonstration included
Mayor Mitchel, other city and state
officials, a number of prominent busi
ness men and telephone officials. A
small group gathered in San Fran
cisco.
Provident Also Talks
In Washington President AYilson,
who was on the wire, talked across
the continent. The President's conver
sations were overheard by the scores
of persons in the telephone company's
offices.
The transcontinental service will not
he established for public use until
about March 1. It will cost a person
$20.70 in New York to talk for three
minutes with San Francisco, and J6.75
for each additional minute.

Do you belong to the "No thank you"
society of the dinner table where the
mere sight of certain foods makes you
feel the pain you know would be yours
if you ever ate them?
Corn Beef, Cabbage, Pork, Beets,
Onions. Turnips, etc., are all good
healthy strengthening foods and a
strong, healthy stomach can always
digest them. Yet If the stomach kicks
back and simply won't work on such
I strong fare It's folly to fall back en
: artificial digesters that push the sM'fl
I through whether the stomach wlllsntu
not.
1 What a weak, easily upset stomach
reallv needs is not a digestive aid but
a stomach strengthener. Any reliabla
physician will tell you It's dangerous to
continually dose the stomach with pep
sin digesters and the like. Ills own
prescription will act tfti the stomach
Instead. No physician ever wrote n
j better stomach prescription than thai
I embodied In the famous MI-O-NC
] Stomach Tablets that H. C. Kennedy
: and most every other druggist In this
i vicinity sells with the positive guaran
] tee that they must put a complete nnd
i lasting end to stomach misery or monev
I back. Ml-o-na strengthens the wall."

vour own stomach machinery. It give!

sour rising, gas. belching, burning
bloating, shooting pains, etc.. and in a

such a clear and perfectly healthy con
dition that It can digest a typical N'rs
Kngland boiled dinner without tli<
slightest effort or distress,—Advertise
