NIP IT IN THE BUD.
First Appearance of Dandruff a Fore
runner of Fotnre Baldneas.
That such is the case has been con
clusively proven by scientific research. 1
Prof. TTnna, the noted European skin
specialist, declares that dandruff is the
burrowed-up cuticle of the scalp, caused i
by parasites destroying the vitality in
the hair bulb. The hair becomes lifeless. 1
and, In time, falls out. This can be pre
vented.
Newbro’s Herpieide kills this dandruff !
germ, and restores the hair to its natural
softness and abundancy.
Herpieide is now used by thousands of I
people—all satisfied that It is the most
wonderful hair preparation on the mar
ket to-day.
