Try as you will, after nn application

your scalp will not Itch, but what will
please you most, will be after a few
weeks' use, when you see new hair,

A little Danderlne immediately dou-
bles the beauty of your hair. No differ-
ence how dull, faded, brittle and
scraggy, just moisten a cloth with
Danderlne and carefully draw It
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a lime. The effect Is im-
mediate and amazing—your hair will
be light, fluffy and wavy, and have an
appearance of abundance; an Incom-
parable luster, softness and luxuri-
ance, the beauty and shimmer of true
hair health.

Wasinghton.—The administration
$800,000,000 defense budget began to
take final shape In congress when the
house passed the fortifications bill
carrying a total of more than $51,000,-
000 for coast defenses and the house
naval committee completed its 191R j Lydia~E. Pinkham's Vegetable "Com-
naval appropriation bill with a total ii-ti-—jt „.,,i
of more than $351,000,000.
The army appropriations bill, the
third element of the program, still Is
in the house military committee which
Is expected to complete it next week.
Estimates for the army reach a total
of more than $1)60,000,000 exclusive of
numerous deficiency measures re-
sulting from the border mobilization
and the rising cost of war materials.
Only One Bill Pending.
The only military legislation pend-
ing is the universal service bill be-
fore a senate sub-committee which
will conclude its hearing this week
It is not expected that congress will
take any action on the universal train-
ing bill at this session.
The naval bill carries a total of
$351,433,245 as against $313,000,000
last year, and provides for the con-
struction of three 42,000 ton battle-
ships at a fotal cost of $28,178,592
each; one battle cruiser at a cost of
$26,694,496; three scout cruisers at
$6,746,145 each; fifteen destroyers at
$1,748,612 each; one destroyer tender
at $2,808,000; one submarine tender
st $2,199,400. and eighteen 800-ton
type submarines at $1,434,093 each.
The program is that recommended by
the department and represents one-
half of the remaining portion of the
three-year prograni approved last
year.
Large Submarines Needed.
The committee departed from the
department 8 recommendation only in
the type of submarines provided for
No small coast defense submersibies
are authorized, the committee having
decided against the small 400 to 600-
ton type of boat, such as those now in
service.
Taking up the program of getting
under construction the four battle
cruisers authorized last year, the com-
mittee raised the limit of cost for the
hull and machinery to $19,000,000
j from $16.500,t'00. Department of-
ficials believe a'l four vessels can be
placed with private bidders at that fig-
ure. The committee also heeded, how-
ever, Secretary Daniel's recommenda-
1 tions that navy yards be fitted to build
large numbers of capital ships, author-
izing the expenditure of an additional
$12,000,000 for that purpose, in the
• event the department Is unable to
j make satisfactory contracts for any
t vessel in the present bill or left ov§r
! from the preceding measure. This
. would make available a total of $18,-
000.000 for equipping navy yards.
Appointments Increased
For the three scout cruisers still
awaiting satisfactory bids, the com-
mittee raised the cost' for hull and ma-
chinery to $6,000,000 from $5,000,000.
Another new provision of the bill
raises the number of appointments an-
nually at Annapolis to be made from
the enlisted personnel of the navy
from 25 to 100. Appointments may tie
| made whenever vacancies occur.
The new battleships will be the
■ most powerful war vessels ever built.
They will have a speed of 23 knots an
hour and carry main batteries of
j twelve 16-Inch guns each instead of

Mr. Lucy came to Canada from Wis-

$1,500 available cash in bis possession.
He rented a half-section of partly Im-
proved land in Alberta and commenced
summer fallowing. He broke 300 acres
with oats, 20 with barley, and 200 with
wheat. Also he had two cows and 20
head of young live stock. He was for-
tunute in buying feed at a bargain and
managed to rent the adjoining quarter-
section ns pnsture.
A few weeks ago he decided to real-
ize his profits—and they amounted to
$0,000 absolutely clear from the crop
and the stock.

Welded glass suitable for certain op-

the glass surfaces to be joined are
placed In good optical contact under
pressure, and are heated to a carefully
predetermined temperature, which. t<>
avoid distortion of optically worked
surfaces, must not approach too near
what Is defined as the "annealing*
point." This point of appreciable sof-
tening Is determined for any kind of

suddenly disappears. Similar glasses'
