TOMAH, WIS." The death of Mr. Robert Howie, which occurred Sunday afternoon at his home on the south side of this city, takes one of Tomahs earliest settlers and one of the best known men in Monroe county. Mr. Howie was born in Irving, Ayrshire, Scotland, on Aug. 6, 1830.

In 1S5 6 he emigrated to this country, coining directly to Tomah, where he entered the employment of Tomahs founder, Mr. Gillett, for whom he worked for a number of years. Mr. Ilowie carried the mail from Tomah to Sparta on foot and had many hairbreadth escapes from wild animals. After this he assisted Mr.

C. C. Miller, who was surveying this country, and then he engaged In teaming from Sparta to La Crosse. He then bought a farm consisting of about one hundred acres in and surrounding Tomah, where lie has resided ever since. He was a crack shot and an ardent sportsman in the true sense of the word.A great lover of horses, he was always willing to challenge all comers in racing.

In 1911 he carried off the purse in one of the horse races. For a number of years he raised English hares and pheasants for the market. He carried off nearly all the prizes for vegetable produce for a number of years at the Eastern Monroe County fair. His generous hospitality was proverbial. As a conversationalist Mr.

Howie was without a peer and it was indeed a treat to hear him relate the episodes of his past life in his pleasant lowland Scotch dialect. Mr. Howie was married to Agnes Alexander, also a native of Scotland, who survjves him. He also leaves to mourn his loss five daughters, Elizabeth, Estella, Anna, Violet and Lucile, and two sons, Robert and Wallace, and also a large number of friends. Mr.

Howie had been failing in health ever since last fall, when he was struck in the back hy a trunk, but was very active until about two weeks before miANS HAIR REACHES TO KHEES A Year Ago Was Threatened With Baldness. Tells How She Made Her Hair Grow. Had anyone told me such marvelous results could be accomplished so quickly, I positively would' not have believed it. Twelve months ago my hair, which then reached barely to my shoulders, was falling out at an alarming rate and growing very thin, actually exposing the bald scalp In several spots. It was dull and lifeless in color, turning grey in patches, and very dry and brittle.

My head was covered with dandruff and itched like mad all the time. I tried fully a dozen different hair tonics but they were all the same and never did me a bit of good. One day I chanced to read in my home paper of a simple home prescription to make the hair grow that was recommended by a well known physician. It said, that by taking ordinary Lavona de Com-posee and mixing with Bay Rum and Menthol Crystals and applying to the scalp each night with the finger tips that new hair would grow very rapidly. I decided to try it and I had my druggist mix 2 oz.

of the Lavona de Composee with 6 oz. of Bay Rum and V2 dr. of Menthol Crystals, and started to use it. My, how quickly my hair did grow. First the hair stopped falling, the itching ceased and the dandruff Then tiny little hairs appeared all over my scalp.

These grew and grew as though nothing would ever stop them. They are growing yet and while, of course, I have used the treatment steadily and expect to continue It, at least until my hair reaches the floor. I might have stopped and been perfectly satisfied at the end of three months. I think that any woman can get long, thick, beautiful hair by using this prescription as I have recommended it to several-friends and all are delighted with the result. The prescription Is very inexpensive and any druggist can fill it.

Those who use it should he careful not to get it on the face or where hair is not desired. A 'A 5 A gown of old rose tusser with bolt of pompador ribbon. The skirt shows the broad panel pleat in back. The waist is cut low with a yoke of chi fon. NEWS PROSTRATES MADEEOS BROTHER DEL AFIELD, Feb.
