A FACT PROVEN.
Should Convince Even the Most Ssep-
teal of It's 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 a rabbit innoculated 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 application 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
