that this first document was not the aiii-
davit he would have liked to make, but
that il was dictated by counsel for Mr.
Heinze for the purposes OF the Minnie
Healy case and not for the disbarment pro-
ceedings.
An interesting minor point which was
brought to light was that Judge Harney
carried AS revolver with him OH the
night he went TO the meeting at the Thorn
ton hotel and that he did so because John
MacGinniss had led him to believe that
Mr.. Shores was similarly armed.
The session was not without its hui
mors. The witness told little story dur
ing the morning little story regarding
an incident which came up in the trial OF
the Minnie Healy case in April and May,

and in consequence was late in getting
back TO court. Then he experienced a
Feeling of relaxation and grew so drowsy
that he could not keep his eyes open and

Not only after the examination, but

have been all through the trial.
For all this, the testimony OF Judge
Harney by no means was so positive
and so strong as his declarations in his
affidavit charging Mr.. Shores with un-
professional conduct. He weakened
perceptbly. At times Judge Harney
was confused. At other times he suf-

A FACT PROVEN
Should Convince Even the Most Skep
ticaI Of Its Truth.

If there is the slightest doubt in the
minds of any that Dandruff germs do not
exist, their belief is compelled by the
fact that rabbit inoculated with the
germs became bald in six weeks time.
1t must be apparent to any person.
therefore, that the only prevention of
badness is the destruction of the germ
which act is successfully accomplished in
one hundred per cent of cases by the ap-
plication of Newbro's Herpicide.
Dandruff is caused by the same germ
which causes badness and can be pre-
vented with the same remedy-Newbro's S
Herpicide.

cause you remove the effect"
