SOFTNESS OF SEALSKIN. Is Htvnlcd l)j Human Hnlr Where Dandruff is Krndlenled. Sealskin is admired the world over for Its softness and glossiness; and yet the human hair is equally as soft and glossy when healthy; and the radical cause of ail hair trouble is dandruff, which is caused by a pestiferous parasite that saps the vitality of the hair at Its root. Newhro’s Herpicide is the only preparation that is fatal to the dandruff germ. Without dan druff there is no falling hair, hut a lux uriant growth of glossy, soft, hair is cer tain. Scouring the scalp won’t cure dan druff. Kill the dandruff germ. Thous ands of women owe their beautiful suits of hair to Newbro’s Herpicide. Sold by leading druggists. Send 10c.

DOPE DIPPER IS GIVEN A KNOCK OLE BLOW Narcotic Sale is Prohib terl Now CANNOT BUY THE STIFF EASILY Law Passed By Legislature is Effect ive and Sale of Dope is Limited to Prescriptions Given By Physicians. Americus "dopers” view with alarm the fact that the bill passed by the legislature prohibiting the sale of nar cotics is already effective, thus cut ting out their “feed,” or else making it more difficult to get the drugs here tofore quite accessible. The dopers thought the new law, like the booze killing, was not effec tive until January, thus giving them four months to steam up. But they are up against it already, with a jolt. Under the law recently enacted by the legislature, druggists are prohibit ed from selling morphine, opium, or dope of any character except upon the prescription of a reputable physician, and a prescription can only be used otjce. This will make it quite expensive as well as troublesome to get the stuff for the dopers. The Limit of Life. The most eniment medical scien tists are unanimous in the conclu sion that the generally accepted lim itation of the human life is many years below that attainment possible with the advanced knowledge of which the race is now possessed. The critical period, that determines its duration, seems to be betwen 50 and 60; the proper care of the body during this decade cannot be too strongly urged; carelessness then be ing fatal to longevity. Nature’s best helper after 50 is Electric Bitters, the scientific tonic medicine that revi talizes every organ of the body. Guar anteed by Eldridge Drug Co. 50c. lm. Returned to the City. Dr. H. B. Allen has returned to Am ericus and resumed the practice of his profession. Dr. H. B. ALLEN, Eye, Ear and Throat Specialist, 8-27-3 t. Barlow' Block.
