11 A Send for a Sample Bottle of Newbro’s Herpieide We want everyone to become acquainted with a hair preparation that not only promises to do certain things, but does them. We want every person having trouble with their hair to become familiar with the merits of Newbro’s Herpieide, to experience its subtle but ex quisite odor and to see the beautifying effect which it has upon the hair. There is a germ or microbe which lodges in the scalp and the result is the scale-like accumulation we call dandruff. That dandruff is due to a germ is no longer a theory, but a scientifically established fact. The existence of this germ was proven by M. Sabouraud, an eminent French scientist, who inoculated a rabbit with human dandruff, causing the rabbit to become denuded of hair in six weeks. A similar demonstration with a guinea pig was later made by I)rs. Lesser and Bishop in England. The fact that Xcwbro’x Herpieide is compounded in harmony with the germ theory of dandruff accounts for its extraordinary success in the treatment of this ailment. Thousands of users have found Herpieide most dependable for the eradication of dandruff, to stop Itching of the scalp and to pre vent falling hair. It receives the highest endorsements. The re sults attending its intelligent use are a revelation and stamp Xew- bro'8 Herpieide as wonderfully reliable. Xewbro'n Herpieide is always positive in its action. Every promise made for it in the advertising, on the label or by the dealer who sells it, is backed up by one hundred per cent of the most pleas ing and satisfying efficiency. To convince yourself of the wonderful hair-saving and beauti fying qualities of this scalp prophylactic, send ten cents in postage or silver, to cover cost of packing and mailing, to The Herpieide Company, Dept. 72 B, Detroit, Michigan, for trial size bottle of Herpieide, also a valuable booklet on the care of the hair. /[ If you prefer to give it a more thorough test than you />/ could from a sample, you can buy a large size bottle from / *° your dealer, who will personally guarantee it. If the first bottle used does not produce good results, he will ■' c°° o'V-j- refund your money Herpieide is dispensed in all the better Barber Shops and Beauty Parlors.

At the restaurant it was said that Mrs. Gundi-rman. under the nan of Mrs. SIchel, had worked there, but that she had left with a man. “Her husband came after her.” said a waiter. “She told us she was going hack to New York with him. She has alwavs said she lived in New York. I heard her tell him that she would go with him if he w’ould be good to her. We knew she had left her husband. But she never told us why. We never knew that she was ever the wife of a rich man. She was a good dishwasher.” Decide to Extend Brinson Railway Capital Necessary for Improvements Has Been Raised—Work Starts Soon.
