THE HAIR
When not properly cared for, lose
its lustre, becomes crisp, harsh, and
dry, and falls out freely with every
combing. To prevent this, the best
and most popular dressing In th

removes dandruff, heals troublesome
humors of the scalp, restores faded
and gray hair to its original color,
and imparts to it a silky texture
and a lasting fragrance. By using
this preparation, the poorest head
of hair soon

Th robber stole th tools from the
section house at Ilarulay, three mile
west of th sac ue of th wreck, aud re
moved the fishplate which Jul tied two
rails together. They selected thatop
of a grade, going up which th train Is
likely to slow down, thereby lessening
tli chance of so badly wrecking the
train as to bury beneath the dubrl the
treasure they were seeking. The
precaution were unavailing, as what
they sought to avoid occurred. When
the train reached the spot the engine
left the track aud most of the cam fol
lowed it, piling oue ou top of
another, and making an awful wreck.
The express car was burled so that It
required two hours' digging to got at
IU Fortunately, although th engine
was at tli bottom of th pile, the
debris dldu't catch fire, aud thus an
awful horror was everted, a many of
th Injured would, lu tht event, have
perished before the reseunrs could have
