aged German, swallowed the contents
of a four-ounce bottle of carbolic acid,

found yesterday In a corner of his
door yard.

he paid all his debts, his taxes and
every obligation he was known to
have. He owned two houses and lota
The deeds to the property he had In
his pockets.
Not wishing to disclose the identity
of the druggist who nad sold him the
carbolic acid, Wllkle tore the name
from the label of the bottle.
Wllkle said several days ago that
he was becoming a burden to his fam

feeble to work. He then threatened to
commit suicide, but his relatives did
not treat the threat seriously. He was
one of the best-known men on the

explored by a party under the direction
; of the sheik of Glzeh. In the collec
tion Is a portrait statue of Cheops.
It Is a seated figure of illnt stone,
four feet high, c learly showing the an

on a well-developed human being, It
Is estimated by the Egyptian authori

Mrs. Stanford to bring the relics to
California, that the statue was made
7000 years before Christ.

clean and Uuinty preparation, particularly one that over
comes cxoubsive oiliness and leaves the hair light and

Herpicide. Discriminating ladies become enthusiastic
over its refreshing quality and exquisite fragrance.
A WOMAN TO BE PRETTY must have pretty hair.
The features may be quite plain or even homely, yet
if the head is crowned with an abundance of beautiful
hair, attractiveness will not be lacking. The poet says:
"fair tresses man's imperial race ensnare." Herpicide
gives the hair a charming distinctiveness that Is char
acteristic of no other hair dressing.
DISEASED HAIR A MISFORTUNE. Unsightly or
diseased hair is a misfortune in more ways than one.
There is the actual Injury to the hair follicles, and the
consequent loss or thinning of the
hair; this may cause diseases that
sometimes follow a removal or thin
ning of nature's protection to the
head. A diseased condition of the
hair effects a woman's disposition
to a marked degree.

ravages of the dandruff microbe, after which the
natural beauty and abundance of the hair will return
