First Appearance of DandruR q Fore
runner of Future Badness.
That such is the case has been con-
clusively proven by scientific research
Prof. Unna, the noted European skin
specialist, declares that dandruff is the
hurrowed-up cuticle Of the scalp. caused
by parasites destroying the vitality in
the hair bulb. The hair becomes lifeless,
and. in time, falls out. This can be pre-
vented.
Newbros Herpicide kills this dandrufr
germ. and restores the hair to its natural
softness and abundancy.
Ferpicide is now used by thousands OF
people-all satisfied that it is the most
wonderful hair preparation on the mar
, ket to-day.

TO attempt to prohibit seizure or 10 de-
fine contraband OF war. The only prac-
ticaI solution cf the question came In tire
establishment OF war Itself. George T.
Robertson OF London took the floor as the
representative OF Great Britain. He said
that the proposition as presented was but
the argument OF the weaker nations. Great
Britain he cited az a nation which favored
any mode Of warfare iust as long as it
harassed and damaged the enemy.
At the close of the debate the report
Of the Committee on Nations was pre-
sented. and then Mr.. Justice Brewer as
sumed the chair. Closing a short address
Of felicitation at the results Of the Con-
gress, he expressed the hope that Some

worldwide peace. and that not the least IN
strnmental In bringing about this much
desired elimination OF affairs would be tho

would be the forerunner Of many others
Of Ike importance and results. With this
sentiment. he declared the congress adj
Jcurned without day.
