In a fcn. Interview ho said: "If the germs of dandruff are not soon uua.ailiued, the United States will some day be known as the hairless nation. The Americans must wage a relentless war of extermination at once, and I am going to help them." "My receipt for killing dandruff germs, well known as Parisian Sage, is now being manufactured In the United States.' There Is only one way to cure dandruff, and that Is to kill the dan druff germs. There is only one preparation that will kill the germs, and that Is Par isian Sage. Parisian Sage Is now manufactur ed In Buffalo, N. Y., by the Giroux Hfg. Co., and agencies have been established in every town in Ameri ca. You take no risk in buying a bot tle of Parisian Sage. The Dillon Drug Co. is the agent In this city and will guarantee Parisian Sage to cure all dandruff, stop falling hair, remove all diseases of the scalp, or money back. Parisian Sage Is the most marvel ous hair dressing and tonic; it makes the hair beautiful, luxuriant and soft In one week. It causes luiir tu grow If the hair root be not altogether dead.

A celluloid comb caught fire on the head of a Centralla, Wash., girl yesterday and her red hair was all burned. Ouard Special Service. New York. Jan. -I. New York has recently been the scene of sever al spirited meetings having for their purpose the adoption of a national flower. Ureal rivalry has developed among the various factious favoring the different posies, but it now seems evident that the lines of battle will be drawn between the advocates of the mountain laurel and the friends of the columbine. Petitions to con gress are now being prepared by the leaders ou both sides, and the Sol ons at Washington will be asked to arbitrate the matter. Prof. Frederick l.eltoy Sargent, formerly of Harvard, but now In structor of botany at the University of Wisconsin, heads the columbine forces, and has Just delivered a tell ing blow upon the laurel adherents, lie asserts that laurel contains a deadly poison, andromedotxiu, wiiictt. If It Is as bad as it sounds, should be sufficient to forever blast the hopes of the laurel lovers. This poison, says Prof. Sargent, is more powerful than strychnine. On the subject of his favorite flow er, the columbine, Mr. Sargent has waxed enthusiastic. Blooming red, ! whilo and blue In various parts of! the country, all columbine, says Mr. J Sargent, is certainly a patriotic flow er. Hut that Isn't all. It's namo Is derived from the saino Latin word as Columbia and Columbus. That ought to be more than sufficient, but lis ten: Botanlcally, the columbine be longs to the genus nquilegia, which, as you must know, is derived from the Latin aquiln, meaning the e.igie. , A bird of a flower, what? lint I'rof. Sargent doesn't stop there. The ter minal sepnient of the columbine, he asserts, contains thirteen parts, sym bolic or the thirteen original states. Meanwhile the members of the Kansas Club of New York, In the in terests of peace, are planning to run the sunflower on a dark horse. Speaking of centennials you were, weren't you tomorrow will be the centenary of the birth of Dr. Kdwlu 11. Davis, famed throughout the world as a physician, medical In structor, author and archaeologist, and the anniversary will be Inform ally observed by the scientists of this city. Dr. Davis was born In Ohio, Janu ary 22, 1811, and died In this city May 15, 18S8. Ho gained Immortal ity through his work, "The Ancient Monuments of the Mississippi Val ley," which the distinguished Swiss scientist, Morlot, declared was "as glorious a monument of American science ns Bunker Hill Is of Ameri can bravery." This great book, tho result of years of patient n-search In the valley of the "Father of Wa ters", coitttlitutct) the first volume of the collection of the Smithsonian Institution. Another centenary soon to be ob served Is that of William Page, the artist and portrait painter, which falls ou Monday next. Albany was the birthplace of Page, but most of his hie was spent in this city, and lie died at his home In Statou Island In ISS'i. For many years he was the president of the National Academy. He was also an enthusiastic sports man ami Invented many improve ments in boats and guns. The tendency of young ladies to alter the spelling of their names t by no means confined to shop girls. "The Colonel's lady, and Judy the Ogrudcigh are sisters under the skin." Just now tliero Is an epi demic of this sort of phonetic spell ing, and, although it had its begin ning in Washington, the craze has spread to New York society circles and will doubtless soon make itself felt all over the country. The eld est daughter of the secretary of the navy commenced it. Originally Mlsaj Alice Meyer, she Intely announced that she Is hereafter to bo referred i to by press nnd public as Miss Alyai Meyer. All tho Alices In the BOclety of New York and Washington are now practicing the writing of "Alys." and tho old-fashioned Alice will doubtless soon become extinct in our best social circles. Bluntly Increasing, and a consider able addition to the popular knowl edge or the southern continent will be mnilo by the excursion of the stcnnishlpllliiecher, which sails from New York today on a seventy-four day cruise to South American and West Indian ports. The tourists will visit the principal cities and places of Interest In Brazil. Uruguay, Chile, and Argentina, passing through the atrults o f Magellan. A few years ago, such a tour would have attracted lit lie patronage, but New Yorkers and tho people of the country at large are now awaking to the fact that there Is much of interest to be seen in South America, as well as great possibilities In the way of trade and commercial development.
