Fanners who make a habit of putting
sale bills and other advertising matter in
mail boxes on raral routes would do well
to look up the postoffioe law on these
matters. Recently the federal authori
ties have made a number of arrests and
the offenders in.every esse pleaded ignor
ance of the law. Every failure to affix a
stamp or stamps to any article deposited
in a mail box may mean a fine of ten or
more dollars as Unole Sam does not
excuse ignorance in his large family of
nephews.

ARE MICROBES IN YOUR SCALP?
It
Has Been Proved that Microbes
Cause Baldness.
Professor Unna of Hamburg, Germany
and Dr. Sabourand. the leading French
dermatologistdiscovered that a microbe
causes baldness. Their theory has time
and again been amply certified through
research experiments carried on under
the observation of eminent scientists.
The microbe lodges in the Sebur, which
is the natural hair oil, and when permit
ted to flourish it destroys the hair folli
cles and in no time the pores entirely
close, and the scalp gradually takes on
a shiny appearance. When this hap
pens there is no hope of the hair being
revived.
Dandruff is a contagious disease,
which is largely due to a destructive
microbe, which when left to pursue its
course causes itobing scalp, falling hair
and baldness. Dandruff is caused by
microbe affecting the glands which pro
duce the sebaceous matter, which then
unnaturally dries up and scales off.
We bave a remedy whioh will, we
honestly believe, remove dandruff, exter
minate the microbe, promote good, cir
culation in the scalp and around the
hair roots, tighten and revitalize the
hair roots and overcome baldness, so
long as there is any life left in the hair
roots.
We back np this statement with our
own person! guarantee that this remedy
called Kexall "93" Hair Tonic will be
supplied free of all cost to the user if it

93" Hair Tonic accomplished these
results by making every hair root, folli
cle and piumml glacd strong and active,

Woman and Her Master.
The philosopher and his friend sat
far into the night discoursing on things

"Woman." said the former oracu

Man is naturally her master. She
cannot rationally oppose his will. He
Is Instinctively and by the law of nat

Woman may learn to revolt, but she
can never learn to rule. She has one
mission in life that of obedience.

No Lie After All.
They were telling fish stories, and
at last the tall, lank man on the crack
er barrel said:
"I went down to the river this morn
ing, and, although the water was high
almost to a flood. I took a ten foot
pike"
"Stop there!" exclaimed the fat man
with the corncob pipe. "Tell us you
took an eight pound trout and I'll
sit idly by, but a ten foot pike nev
er! Ananias died for less than that"
"I took n ten foot pike pole," con
tinued the unruffled tail, lank man on
the cracker barrel, "and In less than
five minutes I hooked out a fifteen foot
bass"
"See here! See here." yelled the
man who owned the grocery. "You'll
have to go way from here to finish
that lie. I hain't got no ligbtnln' rod

Ceamie Dust. i
A particle of dust one-hundred thou- j
aasth of an inch in diameter is beld
la lis place in space by the force
of gravitation, but a particle smaller
tbaa this la pushed outward into spacg
by the weight of the sun's light, be
cause as the particle becomes smaller
Its surface, which Is subject to pres
sure, becomes greater In proportion to
Its weight
The sun's corona, the zodiacal light.
the aurora borealis and the comet's
taD are all composed of these infinitely
miBUte particles, in some cases white
hot and in others merely illuminated
by the sun. which are being constantly
driven away from the sm by the pres
sure of Its light.
In the case of the aurora borealis
there is a. movement of the light both
away from and toward the sun. This
Is explained by the theory that the
weight of- the sun's light presses the
particles outward into space for a cer
tain distance and that then a certain
number of them cohere together until
they bave sufficient weight to be at
tracted toward the sun once more by
the force of gravitation.

The Dazzling 8earchlight.
On a dark night no. warship would
be safe from torpedo attack but for
the searchlight. The full moon lights
up a torpedo boat so that it can be
fired at when nearly a mile away. To
produce the same illumination with
the most powerful artificial light an
electric arc of 100,000 candle power
placed three-quarters of a mile high
would be needed if the aid of mirrors
were not available. But with this
light and an ingenious arrangement
of mirrors it Is possible to surpass
the moon. Searchlights are now made
which throw light a distance of sixty
three miles, but objects can be seen
only a few miles from the source of
the light ' The effect on the enemy is
most demoralizing. When the bright
beam Is suddenly thrown on the eye
the pupil contracts violently; when-the
beam is removed the eye can see noth
ing. If this be repeated a few times
it takes all the nerve out of a man. so
that only the best trained and most
courageous can continue the attack.

The Real Napoleon.
At a review of the national guard at
the TuUerlea shortly before Waterloo
I had for some time a most complete
opportunity of contemplating this ex
traordinary neing. His face is of a
deadly pale, his jaws overhanging, but
not so much as 1 had beard. His hair
Is short, of a dark, dusky brown. He
generally stood with his hands knit
behind him or folded before bim and
three or four times took snuff out of a
plain brown box. Once be looked at
bis watch, which, by the way, bad a
gold face and, I think, a brown hair
chain, like an English one. His teeth
seemed regular, but not clean. He
very seldom spoke, but when he did
smiled in some sort agreeably. He
looked about bim not knitting, but
joining, his eyebrows. As the front of
each regiment passed foe put up the
first finger of bis left band quickly to
bis hat to salute, but did not move bis
bead or bat. He bad an air of sedate
impatience. From "Recollections of a
Long Lite- by Lord Brougbton.
