To Have Beautiful Hair and Lots of it, Daily Care Is Needed "I'd certainly give anything if I 1 ould only get some life and luster into my hair," declares almost every woman whose appearance is marred by ugly lifeless, scraggy locks. And \et if she will only follow a few simple j •suggestions she too may soon be en- i vied for her beautiful hair. Just try these simple directions to day: Pour a little Parisian Sage into i the hollow of the hand and wet the lialr roots thoroughly with it. Rub it well into the scalp until dry, and a ■ soft tingling glow is felt over the en lire scalp. Do this regularly for a few days and occasionally wet your brush with the tonic and gently brush the hair. You will certainly be astonished and your friends also at the remark able transformation this simple ireatment will make in the appear- j ance of your hair, giving it life, luster and beauty. Two important things to remember are that the hair must be kept clean und that you surely use Parisian Sage.! The genuine Parisian Sage may be j secured at H. C. Kennedy's or any first I class drug store. Its cost is very small and it is absolutely guaranteed to give j you satisfaction or money back.—Ad-1 vertisement.

WHARTON HITS AT THE CRITICS Charity Board Secretary Dis cusses What the Common wealth Is Doing Persons who "delight in disparaging j the work of our own Commonwealth" ] were censured by Bromley Wharton, i secretary of the State Board of j Charities, who spoke yesterday in Philadelphia. "From the days of] Penn and Logan," he said, "when this \ province early established her alms-1 houses and hospitals, for which a bill i was passed in 1700, to our own time, ; Pennsylvania has claimed the services \ of her ablest sons and daughters and poured forth her treasure for the benefit of her helpless and unfortunate citizens. "In 1913 a bill was drawn by the) Public Charities Association, provid- [ ing for a village for feeble-minded | women of child-bearing age. It was: introduced by Representative Ambler, and after a stormy time in the House, j reached the Senate, carrying an ap propriation 'of $20,000, instead of 1 $250,000, as originally asked. Through! the efforts of the Board of Charities, j this amount was increased to $50,000 , in the Senate and concurred in by the House. The Governor later cut this to $40,000. While the sum is, insufficient, it commits the State to the care of this class and is a move in the right direction. "Another matter which I wish to bring to your attention is the unfor tunate delay in the completion of a; | group of buildings for the feeble : minded at Byberry, Philadelphia' 1 county. These buildings should have | been completed during 1913. but in ' consequence of over carefulness on ! the part of the last city administra tion, a holdup for, further investiga tion was ordered, and they are Just about being completed, but cannot be I occupied on account of having no j power house for heat and light. I iam glad to say, however, that the [present Mayor, Mr. Smith, has shown ] a sympathetic interest in the matter." VOTING ON PROHIBITION By Associated Press Rutland, Vt..

U. of P. Tossers Win From Cornell; Put Tigers on Defensive The University of Pennsylvania bas ketball team last evening won a well earned victory over the red and white , Cornell live on the latter's lloor, and with the ending of their last same byi a 10-y score placed Princeton on the* defensive for the Intercollegiate title. Before the two contenders met on thej Ithacans' battleground last evening! the Princeton and Penn teams were tied for first place with seven games i won and two lost. Penn, by defeat j ing Cornell, and by the way it is the i first, defeat administered to that team |on its home floor this season, putsj j itself in a position where it cannot be ' beaten for the championship, and the | best Princeton can do is to tie her by ' defeating Cornell on Princeton's floor j lon Thursday night. Many believe the league race will end a tie, but others | feel that Cornell will come back and | fool the Tigers, giving Penn a clear 'title to first position. The battle was a sensational one. 1 and Penn led at the end of the first half 6 to 2. McNichol's foul goal . shooting for the visitors kept Penn in the lead, it was the closest and most j j closely fought game of the season. If | Princeton loses to Cornell on Thurs-; I day the best she can do is to tie for second place. The rest of the teams j Jure hopelessly out of it.

Get from your druggist a large but tle of Oxidaze (containing ninety tab lets) and every two hours allow one of tlje tablets to slowly melt in your mouth so that its powerful healing juices, mixing with the saliva, will reach and heal the inflamed mem branes, clear the throat of all danger ous germ life, loosen a dry, hoarse or tight eougli aild by slopping the forma tion of phlegm in the throat and bronchial tubes quickly end the per sistent "hang on, loose cough. Many a serious, possibly fatal, case of lung trouble or pneumonia can be prevented by the simple use of Oxidaze in this way. And, as the tablets are pleasant and easy to take, are not at all expen sive, contain no harmful or habit-form ing drugs, and as G. A. Oorgas, drug gist, and other leading druggists every where sell them on a positive guaran tee that they will stop a cough or money back, no one who has a cough or cold can lose by giving them a fair trial. Be sure to Insist on Oxidaze and take nothing in its place. A single package taken now may easily savu many dollars In doctors' bills in future. UDUCATtuKAL School of Commerce Troup Building 15 So.
