Without a background of nice hair a really pretty face frequently becomes plain but, with it, unattractive features assume life and beauty. Every woman can increase her natural charm by using Newbro’s Ilerpicide. Herpicide makes hair beautiful. Dandruff saps the vi tality of the hair. Herpicide applied inteliistently and regularly checks this destruction of hair life and prevents the hair from falling out, giving it a snap and luster, a soft silky fluffiness which can be ac quired in no other way. Applications may be obtained at the best barber shops and hair dressing parlors. It is guaranteed by The Herpicide Co. Said everywhere.
