I other county taxes are paid and the
remaining two dollars before December
13. The money derived from the tax

onment in the county jail to continue

IT RUINS HAIR TO
WASH IT WITH SOAP
Soap should be used very ip&ring
ly, it at all, if you want to keep
your hair looking its best. Most
soaps and prepared shampoos contain
too much alkali. This dries the scalp,
makes the hair brittle, and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
just ordinary mulsifled cocoanut oil
(which is pure and greaseless), is
cheaper and better than soap or any
thing else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thorough
ly. Simply moisten the hair with
water and rub it in. It makes an
x abundance of rich, creamy lather,
which rinses out easily, removing
every particle of dußt, dirt, dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and it leaves
the scalp soft, and the hair fine and
silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and
easy to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, and a few ounces
will supply every member of the
family for mouths.

COURT
SOME WILL jfISE BOUNTY
Magistrates' Errors Deprive a Number
of Hunters From Rewards on
Noxious Animals
Because of technical errors, due it
is said to faulty preparation of atli
davits by the aldermen and justices, a
large number oif the claimants who sent
bills to the Dauphin County Commis
sioners for bounties for killing noxious
birds and nnimals will not be avowed.
Something like seventy-two claims for
approximately S2OO were settled by the
Commissioners this morning while a
score or more others were put in the
class oif "payment refused."
In .those cases where the claims will
not be paid the at<l«rinau or justice
who made affidavit that hie destroyed
"the particular bird or animal for
which the bounty is sought" neglected
to set out the name of a disinterested
elector who it is required shall witness
the burning or mutilation of the pelt.
The magistrates certified to those
facts iti all of the cases but they sub
mitted as a witness the naino of the
person who is seeking t'he bounty. That
is considered by County Solicitor Ott,
to be a failure to come within tho re
quirements of the laws, antfi if the
claim is paid by the county, it will be
in danger of not getting reimburse
ment from the State.

"In addition to these employes,
6,031 citizens of Franklin and Cum

How Thin People
Can Get Fat
Increase ID Weight Ten Founds or Mora
A Physician's Advice
"I'd certainly Rive most anything to
be able to fat up a few pounds and stay
that way," declares every excessively
thin man or woman. Such u result is
not impossible, despite past failures.
Thin peoplo are victims of mal-uutri
tion, a condition which prevents the
fatty elements of food from being
taken up by the blood as they arc when
the powers of nutrition are normal. In
stead of getting intd the blood, all the
i fat and flesh producing elements stay
in the intestines until they pass from
the body as waste.
To correct this condition and to pro
duce a healthy normal amount of fat
the nutritive processes must be artifi
cially supplied with the power which
nature has denied them. This can best
be accomplished by eating a Sargol tab
let with every meal. Sargol is a scien
tific combination of six of the best
strength-giving, fat-producing elements
known to the medical profession. Taken
with meals, it mixes with the food and
turns the sugars and starches into rich,
ripe nourishment for the tissues and
blood and its rapid effect is remarkable.
Reported gains, of from ten to twentv
fivc pounds in a single month are by
no menus infrequent. Yet its action is
perfectly natural and absolutely harm
less. iSargol is sold by G. A. Gorgas
and other good druggists everywhere
and every package contains a guarantee
of weight increase or money back.
Caution:—While Sargol has pro
duced remarkable results in the treat
ment of nervous indigestion and general
stomach disorders, it should not, owing
to its remarkable flesh producing effect,
be used by those who are not willing to
increase their weight ten pounds or
more.—Adv.
