The POWER OF STEAM.
Many May See But 1t Takes Genius to
Realize,

When James Watt saw the steam
causing the kettle lid to jump up and
down he said There must be power In
that steam that 1t can lift such q
weight"
There was.
Millions prior to him had seen the
same phenomenon and regarded 1t as
an unexplained mystery.
Recent scientific research has put its
finger on the cause" Of Dandruff, Fall
ing Hair. and consequent Badness, and
has unearthed tiny germ which eats
the life from the roots Of human hair.
Newbro's Herpicide destroys this
germ and consequently restores the
hair to It's natural state.

STARTS BIG SCRAP.
Hundreds of English Sailors Partici-
pate in Mutinous 0usbreak.

Portsmouth, Eng, Nov S.-A mutt
nous outbreak of 500 to 600 sailors
last night necessitated the immediate
mobilization of the entire force in the
naval barracks here to prevent the af-
fair from developing into a serious
mutiny.
The men had assembled in the gym
nasium when the senior officer, man
of short stature, wishing to administer
a reprimand for breach of discipline,
ordered the front ranks TO kneel so
that he could see the men in the rear.
The order was resented and some of
the sailors who refused to obey were
arrested. Their comrades, aggrieved,
ran amuck, wrecked the canteen and
other premises, started to break ont
of barracks, with the intention of
wrecking the quarters of the obnox-
ious officer and were only prevented
from so doing by the fixed bayonets
of an overwhelming force.
A number of the men who attempt
ed to break ont of the barracks were
arrested.
