Conway Takes Another Game.

The Conway ball team won out by a score of 9 to i'll the rubber" game played at East End Park Monday afternoon. The game was snappy one throughout and was noticeable for good playing and a lack of errors on both sides. The town boys appeared for the first time in their new uniforms and seemed to go into the game with more vim than usual. Evans curves which heretofore have been puzzlers for them proved easy and they rapped the ball repeatedly to all parts ot the field. The Hen drix boys, however, supported their pitcher in good style and kept the runs down considerably. Al finder, the Conway pitcher, was in unusually good form and struck out fifteen of the Hendrix slug gers. The following is the score by innings:

WHAT CAUSES DANDRUFF.
Greatest European Authority on Skin
Diseases Says It's a Germ

Diseases Says It's a Germ.
The old idea was that dandruff is
scales of skin thrown off, through a
feverish condition of the scalp. Prof.
Unna, Hamburg. Germany, European
authority on skin diseases, says dan
druff is a germ disease. The germ bur
rows under the scalp, throwing up lit
tie scales of cuticle and sapping the
vitality of the hair at the root. The
only hair preparation that kills dan
druff germs is Newbro'S Herpicide.
