NATURE SPARES
The Stricken Rose From Grief.

The Stricken Rose From Grief.
What q fortunate provision of nature
1t is, that deprives the rose of mental
suffering; for how poignant would be it's
grief to discover, in the height of it's
blooming glory, that canker fed at it's
heart, and that it's beauty and fragrance
were doomed forever. Nature always
spares the suffering; she is a veritabIe
store-house of pleasing rewards, for
those who seek her aid. In the years
gone by falling hair and grayness have
cast a gloom over the lives of thousands
of young women. but thanks to the in
vestigations of scientists the true cause
of hair destruction is now known to be
a germ or parasite that burrows into
the hair follicles. Newbros Herpicide
absolutely destroys this germ, thus
permitting the hair to grow as ma
ture intended. Sold by leading drug

COMMITTEE TO TALK ELECTION
Particularly as Refers to the County
Commissioners

Judge J. B. Pilsbury, chairman of the
county executive committee, requests
a meeting of that body at his office at
10 o'clock next Saturday morning. The
object of the meeting is to take into
consideration the election of county
commissioners as provided for under
the recent act of the legislature. Five
commissioners are to be chosen at the
general election on October 5th, and
the time of campaigning is short.
Such ticket could not be selected at
the une primary, as the law had not
been changed at. that time. and the
committee proposes to discuss the sit~
uation and determine just now the five
commissioners are to be selected. The
board voted for in October will serve
for term of four years.
