We can sympathiZe with the Mis-
souri, Valley editors in their indigna-
tion concerning false reports circulate
ed by residents of other parts of the
county regarding the smallpox s,tua-
ton in that city. If there is anything
utterly reprehensible it is the propen-
sity of people to enlarge upon such
matters to the detriment of towns that
may be suffering from their effect.
Under the strict quarantine regula-
tions always enforced under state and
municipal law, there is small danger
to the general public in any town that
may have contagion within its bord-
ers. 1t is an old fad to get badly
scared over wild stories concerning
the trouble in other towns, but one
that we believe is growing less each
year as common sense and intelligence
becomes stronger and more diffused
among the people. The type of So
called smallpox that has been affecting
Iowa for the past two years Is so mild
in form that it is scarcely to be dread
ed, more trouble and death resulting
from vaccination than from the dis
ease. Yet we do not combat vaccina.
ton, because it is the only safe manner
in which to stamp out the disease.
The case reported here three weeks
ago has turned out to be harmless, so
far as anyone exposed was concerned.
The patient was scarcely ill, and the
people quarantined in the premises
failed to develop any symptoms of the
disease. Where any town enforces
quarantine regulations with the
promptness and thoroughness that has
been the rule in the Valley, they are
entitled to the sympathy and approval
of neighboring municipalities instead
of being made to suffer from false re-.
ports concerning the situation. We
believe in the warmest sympathy for
sister cities in cases of this kind,
coupled with thorough cooperation be-
tween all towns in the enforcement of
health and quarantine regulations
We are happy to know that the Valley
is rapidly recovering from her seige
with the disease, and confidently ex-
pect to soon hear of her complete free
dom from it-Woodbine Chronicle.

RING WORM AND DANDRUFF
They Are Each Caused by a Pes
tlferOuS Germ,

Ring worm and dandruff are
somewhat similar in their origin;
each is caused by parasite. The
germ that causes dandruf digs to
the root of the hair, and saps it's
vitality, causing falling hair, and
finally, badness. Without dam
drutf there would never be bald
ness, and to cure dandluff it is
necessary to kill the germ. There
has been no hair preparation that
would do this until the discovery
of Newbro's Herpicide, which
positively kills the dandruff germ,
alIays itching instantly and makes
hair glossy and soft as silk. At
all druggists. Take no substitutes
There is nothing Gust as good. :"
