To Fight Against Disease Unless The
Strike at the Underlying CausA


Strike at the Underlying Cause.
To treat Dandruff, and Falling HAIR
with irritants or oils on which a para
site germ will prosper, is like scooping
water from the ocean to prevent the tide
from rising.
You cannot accomplish a satisfactory
cure without having a right understand
ing Of the fundamental causes Of the
trouble.
You must kill the Dandruff Germ.
Newbro's Herpicide does this because it
is specially made to do that very thing.
When the germ is removed, the hair
has no choice but to resume healthy
growth and beauty.
