We know Mr. Hoover will be above joining in this hysterieai

regret is that Ihe rank and file in hoih parlies cannot be de

sordid standards id' Ihe political school in which lie. received
his early Irniniu"; --no reliable person has been able to establish
any facts rcl'leclin'r upon his personal honesty, or, what niiyht
lie termed, his essential, native decency.
If it is necessary to call Smith a crook, a second-story man
or an Old Souse in order to defeat him. then as fur lis wo are
concerned he is elected already. ,
We sincerely ami strongly believe in Ihe desirability from

Answer. Some persons suffer

bran, or oatmeal will serve th
purpose of removing excessive
oil from scalp and hair, if ap
plied as a dry shampoo and then
brushed out. Often a little orris
root is mixed wit h ihe bran :
oatmeal to give it scent. Sul
phur is perhaps the best rem

torial friend tells me a skin
specialist prescribed the follow
ing as a lotion "to prevent the
hair from' turning grey." though
it seems to me a remedy against
seborrhea, dandruff and prema

way my friend says his wile
has used it with satisfaction for
