Worth Careful Thought
Do you read the label to know whether
your baking powder is made from cream
of tartar or, on the other hand, from alum
or phosphate ?
Royal Baking Powder is made from
cream of tartar, derived from grapes, and
adds to the food only wholesome qualities.
Other baking powders contain alum or
phosphate, both of mineral origin, and
used as substitutes for cream of tartar
because of their cheapness.
Never sacrifice quality and healthful
ness for low price.

WILSON AND HUGHES
RUNNING CLOSE RACE
Vote in Butts County Reached
Only Six Hundred Seventy Four
Of the 674 votes polled in Butts
county in the national election
Tuesday, President Wilson got
695, Hughes 52, and the Pro
gressives 27.
Hon. Hugh Dorsey for govern
or received 587, and Pickett 51.
All the constitutional amend
ments were ratified in Butts
county, except the one regarding
shipping, which was lost by a
vote of 177 to 134.
With four or five doubtful
states to hear from President
Wilson lacked only ten votes of
election, Thuraday. The race
between Wilson and Hughes is
the closest and most spectacular
in a generation, and only the of
ficial count will determine the
winner.
The state and national election
held Tuesday failed to stir up much
interest and enthusiasm in Butts
county or throughout Georgia. The

great mass of voters cast a straight
Democratic ticket for Woodrow Wil
son and other nominees of the party.
There were a few Republican bal
lots cast, as well as some for the
Progressive nominees.
Butts county an., ueorgia remain
solidly Denmuatic. The election
locally VdS too one-sided to arouse
a high pitch of interest. The nomi
nees were given a fairly good vote,
not as large, however, as some of
their friends would like to have seen.
The polls opened in Jackson at 7
o’clock and closed at 6. In the other
precincts the polls opened at 8 a. m.
and closed at 3 n. m. The ticket was
such an unusually long one that the
managers had a slow and difficult
job counting the ballots.
Secure in the knowledge that
Butts county and Georgia had done
their duty by the nominees, the vo
ters centered their interest in the re
turns from other parts of the coun
try. Any bit of election news from
the East, West and Middle West was
eagerly snatched up. While it was
impossible to tell with any certainty
how the election went, Wednesday
night, still there was keen interest
shown in the bulletins received.
Official Republican and Progres
sive ballots wre in evidence at the
polls. What colored votes were cast
were in the main, cast for the re
publican and Progrssive nominees.

GIRLS! HAVE MASS A
OF BEAUTIFUL HAIR.
SOFT, GLOSSY, WAY!
25-cent bottle destroys dan
druff and doubles beauty
of your hair
Within ten minutes after an ap
plication of Danderine you can not
find a single trace of dandruff or
falling hair and your scalp will not
itch, but what will please you most
will be after a few week’s use, when
you see new hair, fine and downy
at first—yes—but really new hair—
growing all over the scalp.
A little Danderine immediately
doubles the beauty of your hair. No
difference how dull, faded, brittle
and scraggy, just moisten a cloth
with Danderine and carefully draw
it through your hair, taking one
small strand at a time. The effect is
amazing—your hair will be light,
fluffy and wavy, and have an ap
pearance of abundance; an incom
parable lustre, softness and luxu
riance.
Get a 25-cent bottle of Knowl
ton’s Danderine from any drug store
or toilet counter, and prove that
your hair is as soft and pretty as
any—that it has been neglected or
injured by careless treatment —
that’s all—you surely can have
beautiful hair and lots of it if you
will just try a little Danderine.adv.
