Corporations are retiring men at 50. They are not hiring any over 40. A balded man often looks 10 years older than he is. A man with gray hair always does. It is important nowadays that a man look as young as he is; it is vastly im portant that a man having a family dependent upon him should take care of his hair. If you have dandruff—get rid of it by killing the germs. If your hair is falling out—stop it. If your hair is turning gray—don’t waste any time. There is one sure remedy that will cure these misfortunes and aid you to remain young. Parisian Sage, the great Hair Resto rer is guaranteed to permanently re move dandruff in two weeks, or your money back. Parisian Sage stops falling hair— it prevents the hair from turning gray. Parisian Sage is sold and rigidly guaranteed by R. H. .Iordan & Co., and druggists everywhere. Price 50 cents a large bottle.

Los Angeles, Cal., Jan. 21.—A chase after a smuggling craft, believed to be heavily laden with contraband Chinese and opium, is proceeding in southern California waters. The United States revenue cutters Bear and Orient are patrolling the coast in expectation of encountering the vessel. Every immigration officer In this part of the state has been detailed to w'atch some isolated port where the smugglers may try to land. The Bear, it Is understood, sighted the smuggler between San Diego and San Pedro on Thursday night. The revenue cutter gave pursuit, but the sumggler craft made out to sea and was lost to sight in the darkness. The smuggler is said to be a very fast vessel and the men aboard her heavily armed. of Ran- Mrs. Muggins—“Don’t you ever try to save any money?” Mr. Muggins—“Sure. I saved $4 today.

O, I know people read them. My wife and children look for jour changes first thing every day. In fact. I’ve got in the habit myself, but does it bring you business?” LISTEN TO THAT, NOW, JOHNNY JONES, and break out crying. There are but three elements in successful adver tising, viz: securing attention; having SOMETHING to offer; telling the truth about it. I’ve never knowingly misrepresented my offerings, and I never tender that in which I haven’t the utmost confidence. As to getting attention and securing business: with but one head, two hands, and a pair of clumsy feet, I don’t see how I can do much more than at present. I work day and night and have two practical helpers, the latest tools, up-to-date systems, and still I’m sawing wood when I should be sleeping. THE NEW SERIES IS STILL OPEN Boys, and it almost makes me weep to see how the people want the real thing. Of course the Mutual B. & L. sets a terrific pace, hut it’s better to ride in our 2nd class coach than to sit with the “gusher” and not arrive on time. E. L. Keesler, Sec. & Treas 'Phone 344. 25 S.
