of Danderlne Right Now—Also
Stops Itching Scalp.
Thin, brittle, colorless and scraggy
hair Is mute evidence of a neglected
scalp; of dandruff —that awful scurf.
There Is nothing so destructive to
the hair as dandruff. It robs the hair
of Its luster, its strength and its very
life; eventually producing a feverish

if not remedied causes the hair roots
to shrink, loosen and die —then the
hair falls out fast. A little Danderlne

save your hair.
Get a 25 cent bottle of Knowlton’s
Danderlne from any store, and after
the first application your hair will
take on that life, luster and luxuriance
which is so beautiful. It will become
,wavy and fluffy and have the appear
ance of abundance; an incomparable
gloss and softness, but what will
please you most will be after just a
few weeks’ use, when you will actual
ly see a lot of fine, downy hair —new
hair —growing all over the scalp. Adv.
Things Have Improved.
A well known politician, at a din
ner in Washington, said of commer
cial honesty:
“Commercial honesty is improving.
When a man lies to you and cheats
you, it no longer excuses him to say,
'Caveat emptor’—‘lt’s business’ —and
■hrug and smile.
“In fact,” he ended, "things have
now so much improved that if some
multi-millionaires were to lose their
fortunes the same way they gained
them, they'd insist on somebody go
ing to jail.”
BAD CASE OF DANDRUFF
Bissell, Ala.—“l had a very bad case
of dandruff on my head. I was tor
mented by itching and my hair began
to come.-out by the combfuls. I al
most became frantic, fearful that I
would lose all of my hair which was
f my pride. There were some pimples
on my scalp and I scratched them un
til they made sores. My hair was dry
and lifeless.
“I saw the advertisement of Cuticura
Soap and Ointment and sent to my
druggist for three cakes of Cuticura
Soap and a box of Cuticura Ointment.
I washed my scalp with warm water
strong with the Cuticufa Soap and
dried, afterwards applying the Cuti
cura Ointment, working it in the scalp
slowly with my fingers. After using
them for several days my hair began
to stop coming out. The dandruff all
disappeared and in less than four
weeks a cure was accomplished per
manently.” (Signed) Miss Lucy May.

Price of Realty in Rome.
In the big cities of the Old World
the highest value seems to belong to
a property in Rome. Here is where
a value of $450 a square foot is found,
and the land is not used for an in
come-producing building, but includes
the property of the German embassy
to Italy. Business property in Rome
does not bring nearly this high price.
In the principal centers of offices and
shops values do not mount much
above S2OO a square foot.

submit to any operation. He did so and
I improved right along. I am now doing

BUILDING A CONCRETE ROOF
Excellent Suggestion for Farmers
Found in Successful Experiment
of Michigan Fruit Grower.
A good suggestion for farmers gen
erally is contained in the successful
experiment of a Michigan fruit grower
in building a reinforced concrete roof
and using ordinary barbed wire as re
inforcing instead of resorting to the
relatively costly material specially
manufactured for that purpose. The
building covered in this fashion had
(

a strong and rigid frame, both in the
body of the building and in the roof,
which was of the gable type, and the
concrete was laid directly on the shin
gles. Barbed wires, spaced 1 ft. apart,
were first stretched over the ridge
from eave to eave and drawn tight,
and other wires, spaced 3 ft. apart,
were then stretched lengthwise of the
roof. The shingles made the bottom
of the form, while 2-tn. strips nailed
around the sides of the roof made the
sides. The concrete mixture consisted
of five parts of screened gravel to one
of cement, and the concrete was laid
to a depth of about 3 in. After being
troweled, the concrete was finished
with a coat consisting of three parts
of sand and one of cement, and later
a coat of raw linseed oil was applied
to make the surface waterproof. Only
insignificant cracks have developed,
and these are easily repaired by pour
ing in a mixture of oil and cement,
says the Popular Mechanics. Such a
roof as this is adapted only to cases
where the frame of the building is
sufficiently rigid to prevent distortion
in the heaviest wind.
Paper Sponges.
Paper sponges, which are claimed to
possess all the liquid absorbing ca
pacity of the natural product, are now
being made. The paper pulp is first
treated with chloride of zinc until it
forms a nearly fluid mass, to which
common salt is added. This mass
then undergoes a Icompressing and
drying process in a special machine
which, by means of rollers and plates,
provided with a number of metal pro
jections, produces in the mass the ca
nals and cavities of the real sponge.

WATER-PROOFING OF CLOTH
Idea for Process Known as "Craven
ette" Accidentally Obtained in a
Yorkshire Dye House.
The water-proofing of cloth, so uni
versal today, was unknown twenty
five years ago. In 1890, Thomas Fearn
ly Wiley, of Bedford, took out the first
patent for the process known as “cra
. venette.” He got the idea from an ac
cident in a Yorkshire dye house.- Cer
tain materials had been wrongly dyed
and the workmen were directed to
wash out the surplus logwood color
with alum. After the material had
.been dried the improvement was so
marked that the dyer ordered a repe
tition of the alum washing. The cloth
was sent to the wetting-machine, but
the workmen found that they could
not wet It. It passed through the wa
ter and came out dry. Thus was
the discovery made that cloth could be
water-proof and yet remain porous.
The process used today is as follows:
Cloths intended for rain-proofing are
first freed from grease and are then
saturated with the clear liquor obtain
ed in adding together solutions of pure
sulphate of alumina and acetate of
lead. The lead is precipitated out and
tire acetate of alumina is died In the
fabric. The cloth undergoes further
treatment with wax, which is some
times applied frictionally from a block
under the pressure of a pneumatic
roller. Under the method more gen
erally used, the wax, Or mixture of
waxes, is melted by heat and applied
in an infinitesimally fine film by the
action of a ductor roller.

of the tool than words could do, but
it operates in this way: The upper
handlebar is raised and by the triple
pivot connection raises the curved
lever member. The claw member can
then be inserted under the box lid and
the latter pried up a fraction of an
inch. The lid is then hammered down
again and the heads of the nails re
main just far enough above the sur
face for the claw, or the little lifter
attached to the side of the device, to
get under and uproot them.

Who Is Your |

j v Moody Bible Institute, Chicago x
1 TEXT—No ihan can serve two masters.
> —Matt. 6:24.
- Mammon may mean self, the world,
* the flesh or the devil. We will confine
• our thought to three possible mas-
I ters.
I Self as Master.
’ Man, as a rule, thinks he is his own
master. He says: “I am the cap
tain of my soul.” He recalls without
hesitation the words of the poet:
“Man, know thyself,
. Presume not God to scan.”
and he interprets these words to mean
that a knowledge of God is not his
first duty. In many cases he utterly
. ignores God and sees in himself pos
i sibilities of a perfect man, and strives
i to develop them by himself. A party
> of travelers in the Alps were starting
. out one morning to scale one of the
• highest peaks, and invited a young
i man to go with them, and on his de-
i clination, asked him if he did not in-
tend to make the ascent. He replied:
"Yes, I will make it, but I will make it
by myself. I have a guide book, and
have my own head.” The party made
the ascent and returned in safety. The
next day the papers reported the find
ing of a dead body of a young man
at the foot of a precipice with a guide
book tightly clutched in his hand.
Thus many imagine that they can go
on without God.
Satan as Master.
The teaching of the word of God is
very clear that there is an intelligent,
powerful, malicious personality in the
universe opposed to God, and he is
called Satan, or the devil. He is the
god of this age, and he is given great
power, and seems to be lifted above
mankind, to a position from which
he exercises this great power. His
power is seen in individual lives, and
in masses of men. The diabolism that
is found in certain companies of hu
man beings is almost beyond belief.
The plot against the Jews of Russia
- charged with the ritual murder of the
’ boy Yushinsky, which, according to
1 George Kennan involved the Russian
1 government itself, can only be ac
counted for on the proposition that
some satanic mind planned it all. De
mon possession was clearly taught in
the scriptures, and in modern times
- has been clearly proven in China and
other parts of the world by most con
' servative and discriminating students.
1 : Os some men it can be truly said,
they are devils incarnate. The devil
does not always operate in the most
debased and fiendish manner, or men
would resist him and fly from him.
Many whose lives are fairly admirable
are yet in the mastery of the evil one,
but do not know it. Did not Jesus say
that certain men were the children of
the devil? In the individual, the mas
tery of the devil is seen in his in
ability to control his appetite, his tem
, per, and his actions.
God as Master.
But may not God be master? Jesus
Christ, \vho was God, claimed to be
’ master, saying: “One is your master,
even christ.” While there are few,
comparatively, who acknowledge God
as master, there are those who may
claim to parallel the 7,000 in Israel
who did not bow' the knee of Baal.
The disciple Thomas freely called
Jesus Master, and the Holy spirit
coupled the idea of the saving power
of Jesus Christ with his mastership
in the use of the term Lord Jesus.
The mastership of God involves sev
eral things. First, definite, positive and
purposeful surrender to God. When
Saul of Tarsus by the gate of Da
mascus asked: “What shall I do,
Lord?” he made a definite surrender.
He acknowledged himself from that
moment as the servant and very slave
of God. Secondly, man will at once
let God guide him. As God’s guid
ance is most clearly given in his ward,
that word will be man’s study all the
days. Thirdly, his life will be one of
complete obedience. There will be no
! further question as to whether the
thing God commands is feasible or
' not. It is only as to whether it is a
clear command. “His not to reason
1 why, his but to do or die.” This per
' feet surrender is not imbecility; it is
a sane, sensible recognition that the
leadership of God is better than his
own. An illustration of this is seen in
the career of such a man as Dwight
1 L. Moody.
Yielding the mastery to God, secures
; supreme happiness. One of the mas
• ter tricks of the devil is to make man
believe that to serve himself is to
secure happiness. The only fear of
1 Dan Crawford, who for 22 years was
i in the long grass of Africa, was that

joy in God —but he never lost it

Exacted a Promise.
Mrs. Henry Preston White was leav
ing her home for town the other af
ternoon, and as she started down the
walk a pitiful wail reached her ears.
Turning, she perceived, her little five
year-old son leaning far out of the
second-story window.
“Mother! mother!” he cried. “Please
promise me, w-on't you, mother?
Promise me!”
Mrs. White ran back in much alarm
into the house and up the stairs.
"Darling, tell mother what is the
matter,” she pleaded.
“Oh, mother, promise me,” he
sobbed.
, "Anything, darling, anything.”
“Promise me that you’ll be good,
mother, while you’re In town,” he said,
and began to dry his tears.
Not in Her Line.
One day Mr. Smith went to buy
a bushel of buckwheat for sowing.
The man who sold the wheat was
away, but his wife undertook to
make the sale. She found a peck
measure and they went to the gran
ary.
She filled the measure twice, poured
the contents into the bag, and began
to tie It up.
“But Mrs. Lawton,” said the man,
“it takes four pecks to make a bushel.”
“Oh, does it?” replied the woman,
untying the bag. “Well, you see, I
never had any experience in measur
ing grain before I was married. I al
ways taught school.”
Overdoing Housework.
“Housekeepers everywhere recog
nize that life is too valuable to spend
every hour of the day in the mere

ing can be continuously efficient and
work more than eight hours in twen

scientific methods, more efficient uten
sils.” —Charles Barnard.
WONDERED WHY.
Found the Answer Was "Coffee.”
Many pale, sickly persons wonder
for years why they have to suffer so,
and eventually discover that the drug
—caffeine —in coffee is the main cause
of the trouble.
“I was always very fond of coffee
and drank it every day. I never had
much flesh and often wondered why I
was always so pale, thin and -weak.
“About five years ago my health
completely broke down and I was con
fined to my bed. My stomach was in I
such condition that I could hardly take
sufficient nourishment to sustain life. ,
“During this time I was drinking
coffee, didn’t think I could do without
it.
“After awhile I came to the conclu
sion that coffee was hurting me, and
decided to give it up and try Postum.
When it was made right—dark and
rich —I soon became v^ry fond of it.
