APPETITE AND HEALTH
Loss of appetite ia a euro sign of ill
health.
Those who take Dr. Williams' Pink
Tills for Palo l'eoplo as a tonic invari
ably say that their improvement began
with a noticeable increase in the appe
tite. When you are sick and your vi
tality ia low your appetite fail .Noth
ing tastes good, "i ou take no pleasure
in your meals. Under such circum
stances good digestion is impossible.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills tone up tha
entire system, the blood, is enricheil
and good red blood is essential to nor
mal digostion. The glands that secrete
the digestive fluids are (strengthened,
not merely stimulated, and you once
more enjoy a good appetite. Looking
forward pleasurably to meal-time is the
first sign of returning health, strength
and vitality.
What to eat then becomes a problem
and it is solved by the diet book that
the Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schen
ectady, N. Y., will send you on re
quest. It gives therelativedigeptibility
of different foods, gives the proper diet
in various diseases and is a handy book
to have.
The price of Dr. Williams' Fink Pilla
is fifty cents per box. Your own drug

that the boys, get out quite a readable

NOTICE!
Following a conference of the milk
dealers of the city of Havre, the follow
ing prices and conditions have been
adopted by them, to take effect on
Wednesday, Nov. l.":
1. The price of milk will be eight
cents a quart in quantities of less than
five quarts, seven cents per quart in
quantities over live and under Id quarts,
63 cents jer can in can quantities..
2. The price of cream will be: One
quart, (iOc; one pint, 3ic; one-half pint,
Pie; one-fourth pint, 8c; and not less
than one-fourth pint shall he delivered
at any one place.
3. All customers will be required to
furnish a bottle for each bottle received,
pint for pint and quart for quart.
4. Each milkman's route will be coy.
cred only once in 21 hours, eliminating
the expensive double delivery system.
A number of things have led up to the
adopting of these conditions. Reports
of the dealers show that at present tle
margin of profit is not in keeping with
expenses. The higher prices of labor,
material and all commodities have in
creased the cost of delivering milk. Re
ports from several of the towns tid
cities of Massachusetts show that it
costs from 2 to 4t'3 cents per quart
to deliver milk. The recent raise in
price asked for milk by the producers
naturally necessitates an increased cost
to the consumer. The large number of
milk bottles lost by the individual milk
men from one cause and another adds a
large item of expense to delivery. This
loss for the most part has been stood
by the milkmen, hence the attempt to
regulate the bottle question by simply
asking the customer to furnish hs much
capacity in bottles as he desires milk.
The custom adopted in this city of de
livering milk twice a day to tlie same
ronsumer adds a tremendous item of ex
pense to the milkman's business. The
ronvenience which this method furni-hes
to the consumer is very slight indeed.
Rarre stands practically alone in this re
spect, being the only city of its m.p in
this part of the country where such a
method of delivery has been generally
idopted. Customers are urged to accept
these regulations in the light in which
they are meant, vLiili is that of merely
stablishins conditions which will be of
mutual Item-tit to Che producer, milk
man and consumer.

RALLY INC! TO THE COMMON GOOD.
Some notable statements were made
by President and President-elect Wilson
at Williamsfown, Mass., one day last
week following his second triumph at the
polls. He gave no indication of puerile
joy over his success; nor urn ne irmiiige
himself in any gloating over the re
turns, so far as one can judge by the
facts made public. On the other hand,
he seemed to be. steadied by verdict of
the people and to realize that they had
reposed a great confidence in him, a con
fidence which could not be reckoned light
ly. His "Let us forget our differences
and unite for common service was cal
culated to strike a responsive chord in
the hearts of a great many people out
side of his party organization. It was
a statement which a victor could well af-j
fori! to make; it is just the kind of
statement which would lift Hughes into
a still higher position in the affections
of the American people should he vouch
safe to utter it in his hour of defeat.
Political opponents for a short time, ar
rayed in battle formation, Americans
are, or should be, patriotic citizens from
this time forth, ready to uphold the pres
ident of the United States when he is in
the right and criticizing him only when
he is mistaken in thought or in act. To
make a stronger and better United
States, from this time forth Americans
of all political beliefs should rally to
the common good, forgetting for the
time that the man at the head of the
nation comes from any political organ
ization. Honest criticism, however
should not lie barred either to Republi
cans or to Democrats.

"Take care that your-students don't

ancient "gag," probably from Horace or
some other classic, must have been in

members of the faculty and six students

formidable task of cutting down the so

imbibed anywhere it is to be acquired
where the fraternities and the Bororities
meet for social intercourse outside col
lege hours. Here is a blessed influence
which lingers In the memory and could
be ill spared from our educational pro
cesses. Hut there is a due mean in everything,
and the interests of study have the right

in many other colleges, is that tendency

THE REPUPLICAN "COME-BACK."
Notwithstanding the defeat of Hughes
at the polls last Tuesday, the result of
the election indicates a slow trend back

DON'T BE BALD
Tells Hows to Make Hair ow Thick
and Lustrous on Bald and I'.Mn Spots
Thousands of men and women are
thinking in American politics is desirable
and so we look upon this strange cam
paign and the singular uncertainty as
to its outcome as containing elements of
good. Even if it be ahown in the end
that the majority of the voters has
thought wrong, the demonstration of the
fact will set them to thinking right, once
they have begun to think and act for
themselves, as individual free men, not
mere partisans. In the long run Amer
ica will be benefitted by just such ex
ercise of the right duty of private judg
ment as is indicated by the election re
turns this year.
A rule wdiercby election results may
be accurately estimated upon the basis
of a few returns is a very handy thing
to have in a newspaper office on election
night, but it is a small thing to give
in return for the freedom which refuses
i
the reason why. This is indeed a pity,
says a hair specialist, who states that
baldness usually comes from carelessness.
The treatment is very simple; remove
the dirt by shampooing every ten days
and destroy the dandruff germs by fre
quently applying a little of the real Pa
risian Hage, a most efficient preparation
that the best druggists are now recom
mending as one of the quickest and saf
est treatments to surely stop scalp itch
ing and falling hair, remove all dandruff
and to properly nourish and itivigorate
the hair roots.

faith. Not only did the Republican party
lveeome a contender for the national po-
sion.
Empowering of the interstate com
merce commission to prescribe minimum
litical honors in 1010 but it came within las well as maximum rates
an ace of electing its. candidate for presi
dent. Hughes barely fell outside the po
litical breastworks; and the popular
vote, while giving a majority to Wilson,
was practically balanced with something
like eight million vote apiece. So much
for the presidency. In Congress, too, the
Republicans have made decided gains,
wiping out a Democratic majority in the
House of Representatives and coming up
to a parity with the Democrats in the
division of seats (with one seat still in
question . The balance of power in the
Senate will be in favor of the Democrats
by altout the same majority as during
the last session.
Thus it can le claimed by the Repub
licans, and with no slight lasis in fact,
that the election of Pld was a "come-
tiack" for them in considerable measure
albeit thev did not succeed in winning
the presidency over a candidate of tre
mendous grip on the nation. To advance
from a hopelessly outclassed party in
1!12 to a position of almo-t equal
strength with the winning organisation
shows that the Republican party is
based on a strong foundation. The year
IP 2d looms up large for the party pro
viding the iwrty conducts itself well in
the four years' interim.
It is said also that the roads will
recommend that the committee be speci
fically authorized to take into account in
rate regulation the effects of rates upon
total earnings in the light of exwnses
and, therefore, the effect of Its decisions
upon the credit of the carriers to the end
that adequate transportation facilities
may be assured.
