For Instanco, one whoso hair Is unmanagablo will find that by applying a mixture of one teaspoonful of glycerine to flvo times as much water to loose ends of tresses those short strands stay neatly In place, says the New York Evening Tel egram.

In the minds of a great many peo ple, tho economic side of local option has great weight, especially in the communities where the question Is to bo votod on next June, and where the Saloon Kevenue plays a part. How can Oregon City bo run without this Sa loon revenue? Is uppermost Just now In the mlndi of thinking people and tho question is being agitated especial ly by those who pay taxes. It In a ser ious question and It ought to be thoroughly discussed and both aides ought to be given a large hearing. In the minds of business men, there lin gers doubt regarding tho feasibility of running the city without the aid of the 1 present liquor license, and on the other hand there Is manifested a great amount of zeal to abolish the saloon without taking thought of the finan cial problem of the city. On both aides of tho question there is an abundance of good argument which ought to be heard and understood before the vo ter casta his ballot at the June election. The aim of the local option people Is to make Clackamas County dry next June, the aim of the Saloon con stituency Is to keep it wet In order that the problem may be thoroughly discussed a mass meeting will be held next Friday evening.
