Products of the Biddies as Scarce as the
Proverbial Hens Teeth.
The egg famine has struck Marshall
town, and last evening grocers reported
that there was not an egg in Marshall
town for sale. Marshaltown is not
alone in her trouble. however, for the
same condition prevails, practically,
over the entire country. There are no
eggs in the market said one grocer
Yesterday afternoon, "altho all day I
have succeeded in filling all orders, no
matter what they called for with half
dozen lots. now have four eggs left
in my store. j have made every effort
TO secure them today, have offered %
cents and have sold all I could buy
at So
When asked how long the famine
would probably last he replied that If
the present warm weather continues
there should be enough to supply the
demand in three days, at from 20 to %
cents a dozen.
One shrewd restaurant manager in
the south part of the city yesterday
afternoon managed to get hold of sew
enteen dozen fine fresh eggs that We're
brought to the city by woman resid-
ing up the Story City branch of the
Central. He bought the, entire lot at
90 cents, and has the market practical
ly cornered on the Ievee."

ANOTHER WONDER OF SCIENCE.
Biology Has Proved That Dandruff Is
Caused by a Germ.

Science is doing wonders these days
in medicine as well as in mechanics.
Since Adam delved. the human race has
been troubled with dandruff, for which
no hair preparation has heretofore
proved successful cure until Newbros
Herpicide was put on the market. 1t
is scientific preparation that kills the
germ that makes dandruff or scurf by
digging into the scalp to get at the root
of the hair. where it saps the vitality:
causing itching scalp. falling hair and
finally badness Without dandruff
hair must grow luxuriantly. Herpicide
at all druggists 1t is the only de-
stroyer of dandruff.
