V te bald-headed men who sit in the front row at the theater and worry at odd time about a wis, take couragat The fact that there ia no hair on the top of your heads Indicate only that the hair-destroying microbe holds forth your pate. . This annoying little creature ran himself be destroyed, and Pn his destruction your hair will com jnenca growing, and eventually become thick enough to hide , the shiny spot that to ao familiar In the front row here tofor referred to. Not long since -.he San Francisco Ex aminer offered the advice that men le- fraia trim wearing tight fitting hata. It pointed out that tight fitting hats Bad a decided tendency to prevent circulation in th scalp, with the result that the growth ot hair was made Impossible. The Ex aminer is pretty well up in stuff of this kind, but the scientist editor erred In his statement. The cause of baldness is the mlcrooe. ' Scientific work lately at hand give us some Interesting Information with reference to the matter; It seems that the hair-destroying microbe's function Is to preverft growth of the hair. The microbe is of the surface variety, and, once It la removed or destroyed, the hair will grow. , A certain, ray of the unknown ray machine will settle the hash of the microbes responsible for shiny pates, for the foreign Institutes have tried out the treatment and found it to be perfectly successful. By expos ing the microbes to this ray, their de struction is brought about, and, 'once they are killed, the growth of hair con tinues. The microbe Is alone responsi ble for baldness, and there is an effect ive way of circumventing the funct ions of .this unpopular germ, Almast any physic! in owning anX-ray machine Aft easily cure baldness If he Is pro vided with the apparatus necessary to produce the euseullal my. , It is interestlrig in this connection to note that the treatment Is absolutely without sensation. -. The ray manifests Itself In a glass tube, and in its glare the "microbe perUhes. The Itch, mi crobe is destroyed almost instantly in the light of .the violet ray, and even such terrible affliction as lupus (tuber (rutosfe ot the skin) yields to X-ray treatment., Kl V -. Science has made wonderful strides, and in the case of almost any consti tutional disease it Is only necessary to determine the nature of the germ and then consult a bacteriologist for the remedy. Whit 'he anti-toxin treatment will not accomplish the X-ray can be depended upon to bring about, and even the roost pronounced cases of pulmonary tuberculosis can now be pos Itlveiy. and permanently cured. That the percentage of deaths from con sumption is not smaller is the fault of the patients, who, In'their' enthusiasm over bettered health, regard themselves as cured and neglect to observe the pre cautions so' absolutely essential to per manent cure. POST CHECK SYSTEM. Henry A. Castle, auditor of the post office department, shows an annual shortage of half a million dollars or more in the money order system, says the Gasette, of . Janesville, Wis. The pposltton to the post check currency plan comes largely from this bureau because the new currency would prac tically abolish the money order system. :Th!s opposition "should not be permit ted to block the establishing of a cur rency that combines a safe and conven MISS SARAH FINLEY, I Vlc m Vice-President of th Palmetto Club, Memphis, Tenn. IKE OF CAEDUI is a thorough! scientiiio and mod em remedy, meet- inff th needs of the modern woman in the. modern way without the torture of an operation. Wine of Cardui has cured them in the pri vacy of their homes and it has found a place in th hftarta of American women that no other medicine has found. In their graUude over 10,000 American women have written letters commend ing Wine cf Cardui. Wine of Cardui meets their wants as no other medicine does. H sustains the young girl at the shock of her entrance to womanhood. Women who take Wine of Cardui have little discomforj during pregnancy and Jittle pain at childbirth. When the change of life appears they enter a happy, healthy old ago. . Every month it comes to the rescue to assist Nature in torowiug the impurities from the body. Miss Sarah Finlcy, of Memphis, Tenn., vice-president of the Palmetto Club of that city, speaks for herself and ni&ny friends when she bestows the Jfljt Borah Hatty- ofCARJ)VI lent draft for remittance, with a re Hahle circulating mejium.'

The bill should bvme a Jaw at the present session of congress and it will, it public sentiment should become suf ficiently aroused to express to con gressmen it view on the subject. Let ters to congressmen from their consti tuents M aid the cause. The rabbit cannery at Kcho has be gun .operations with a capacity of a ton of luck rabbits a day. There will be no wast-s. every portion of th rab bit's" anatomy being utilised. The game' poi'thtns are eannoJ; the hides and fore feet will be sold, W.0W hides belts al ready contri't;-d for. The bones and re mainder ot the rabbit, will be dried In a retort and then ground and sold tor chicken feed. This is the only' Institu tion of its kind In the United States.

Montana who was quick on the trigger but slow and wary of speech, seems to have been succeeded by a cowardly braggart who shoots men from ambush, perjures himself at crim inal trials, talks Incessantly of his deck teas daring and runs like a frleghtened rabbit before a deputy sheriff or a mil itiaman. This is wholly fortunate, a It removes even the element of plctur esquenes from crime which in reality Is always sordid, says an exchange.

' It Is the duty of home people t0 Pt ronise home institutions, to use the pro duct of home enterprise, particularly when Is Is as good as any other, and thereby render permanent and prosper oua our manufacturing enterprises It is a practical application of reciprocity The Astorian is extremely anxious that the city campaign shall be con ducted on a plane that will not encour age personalities. This result can only be attained by a clean contest. Mis representation by the one side or the other will not profit any person. The Astorian believes in the future of Astoria. Let Astoria people stand to gether. TO- CURE A COLD IH ONE DAY. Take Laxative Bromo Quinine Tab lets. All druggists refund the money if it fails to cure. E. W.
