THE HAIR BRUSH.
Breeds Dandruff. which Causes Falling Hair
and Finally Badness

Prof. Unna, Hamburg, Germany, Eu-
ropean authority on skin diseases, says
that dandruff is as contagious as any
other malevolent disease, and that one
common source OF the spread OF dandru
is the use Of the same hair brush by diff
ferent persons. The way to avoid catch
ing dandruff or any other disease from
another's brush, is to insist on the use
OF Newbro's Herpicide. 1t not only kills
the dandruff germ, but it is also an anti
septic that will prevent the catching OF
any disease whatever through contagion
of another's brush.

The county commissioners have had
several applications since the cold
weather set in for aid from people who
claimed they were in need of such help.
In each instance tire appeal came from
woman who had number OF small
children to support. On investigation
it was found that these women were the
victims OF brutal husbands and had
been left with nothing to live on and a
big family to maintain. The county
really has no right to support these
people. When such cases came up be-
fore the commissioners the worthless
husbands should also be brought in and
put to work on the public highways or
subjected to the whipping post.
