NIP 1T IN THE BUD.
First Appearance of Dandruff a Fore
runner of Future Badness.

runner of Future Badness.
That such is the case has been con-
clusvely proven by scientific research
Prof. Unna, the noted European skin
specialist, declares that dandruff is the
burrowed-up cuticle of the scalp caused
by parasites destroying the vitality in
the hair bulb. The hair becomes lfeless,
and, in time, falls out. This can be pre-
vented
Newbro's Herpicide kills this dandruff
germ, and restores the hair to its natural
softness and abunda11cy.
Herpicide is now used by thousands of
people-all satisfied that it is the most
wonderful hair preparation on the mar
ket to-day

ANTl-REBATE CASE
First Indictment Under This Insur-
ance Law Heard At
Nashville.

The state law against rebating at
tIacted some attention from local life
insurance men few weeks since.
This law, which prohibits the rebate
of any part of the first premium to the
applicant for lite insurance was passed
several years ago, and Its infringement
calls for fine of from 500 to $500.
The first case since the passage of
the law come up ut Nashville Thurs
day In an indictment against Frank G..
Pryor, well-known insurance agent.
On motion of counsel tor the defense
the Indictment was quashed.
The motion to quash was made on
several grounds. First, that the policy
must be issued to complete the offense;
that it is unconstitutional because
it tends to stIfie competitions that the
indictment did not aver that the policy
offered was life insurance.; that it is
not shown that the def ondant dlscIim-
mated more in favor of Mr.. Allen the
applicant for the policy, than any other
applicant; that the Indictment did
not aver that the orter to rebate was IN
violation of the terms of the policy.
An appeal was taken by the State and
on each of these points the supreme
Court will be asked to pass.

MAURY'S MULE
INDUSTRY
Over $37,50O Paid Out For Mules
Last Monday.

Over 800 mules we're bought by sonth
ern buyers in Columbia and shipped
south last Monday. At an average
price of 1925. which is not high for the
class of mules purchased, the sales
meant $37 500 turned loose in Maury
county for mules
This was the number sold in one day,
and while the nu mber is probably fhe
largest one days sales made in the past
twelve months there have been nthel
big mule days and number of Gar loads
of the lorg ears go south every week.
1t can be easily seen therefore that
the mule business is big industry in
the county. No figuers are at hand

county during twelve months, but il

These are prosperous times for OLD
Maury and the proof can be found 10

Merchants banks on January let, 1905
was 1922, 423. 20, or nearly round mill

present deposit,
The total deposits January lst, 1903,
was $3.50, 900, or nearly 5000, GOO less than
this years total.

ING CONTRACT
n. N. Figuers Closes The Lar
gest In COlumbia's Bust
ness History.

The largest contract for advel tlsing
space ever made with Columbia news
paper or by Columbia firm was closed
Thursday by I. N. FIguers, The Shoe
Man, with Mr.. W. d. Hastings, The
Columbia Herald's advertising man.
The contract calls for 8, 600 inches of
space TO he used In the Daily and
Weekly editions of the HeIald within
twelve months. This means fifty-five
pages the size OF page of the Daily
Herald of solid advertising, ana would
require all the space in nearly sixteen
issues of paper the size of ouI daily
issue. Mr.. Figue1s, however. has
learned from experience the trade
bringing qualities of advertising placed
in both the weekly and daily issues OF
the Herald, and he knows that large
space In both papers will pay HIM
will bring what he is working for, the
trade OF the good people of Maury.
The contract In itself shows that MIR.
Figuors contemplates doing business
on an even greater scale than in mast
years, and IN the opinion OF The Herald
he has started in way that will ao-
cOmplish his purposes.
Since embaIklng IN Lusinees Mr..
Flguers has been one of Tie HeTaldss
best advertisers. But it is a long cry
from the small amount OF 100 inches
he used the first year of the life of the
Daily to his new contract for Daily
space of nearly 4, 00O inches.
Each year he has used : sU.=.s-
amount OF space than the year preceds
ing, aud each year his business has atepk
pace with his advertising.
Mi. 7. N. FigueIs,, JI. the business
manager Of the firm, looks after tho
advertising and gives it that same Close
thought and attention that he does the
buying and selling departments of hls
business. While the greater part Of his
advertising appropriation goes tor
newspaper space, he is wide awake
for any other feature which he thinks
will please his customers and bring
trace and does not hesitate to spend
his money for these special features;
and his liberal premium giving feature
is well known and appreciated all over
Maury county.
Though young IN years, Mr.. FIgueIs
is wise in business management He
knows the details of his busin6sss
how to do anything that needs to
be done in the store and Is not afraid
to take hold and do it; and though
the responsibilities of his large and
growing business are heavy, he carries
them lightly. because he knows his
business, and knowledge is power. !"
The Herald hopes and expects to see
1908 the most prosperous year OF his
business career.
