CURIOSITY.
Leads to investigation and Truth.

What shall we do to be saved? was
the title of one of Robert Ingersoll' s
lectures. People of faith and people
of no faith f1ocked to hear it. Thous-
ands are asking What shall do to
get rid of dandruff?" The answer is.
Kill the germ that causes dandruff,
falling hair and finally badness; and
the only thing that will do it is New
bros Herpicide. That is the very lat
est discovery of the laboratory, and it
is the only preparation that claims to,
or that will, kill the pestiferous dan
druff germ. 1t also is delightful hair
dressing. free from oil or grease or
sticky substances. Try it and be con-
WINGED of its actual merit. Sold by
leading druggists. Send 10c in stamps
for sample to The Herpicide company.

PROSECUTION ON
PERJURY CHARGE
Certain Witnesses Are Accused
In Case Of Prye VS..
kaIbaugh.
INVESTIGATION IS ORDERED.
Judge Richie Called County Attor'
ncy Christensen's Attention TO the
Matter This Morning.

In all probability there VIII be some
prosecutions Of witnesses in the case OF
John Prye against Perry Kalbaugh ell
al. which was tried IN Judge Riches
court last February. II is likely that
at least one witness viii be charged
with perjury as the matter was called
TO the attention Of County Attorney
Christensen today by Judge Richie
who made the statement In open court
In the presence of The attorneys
for both plaintiff and defendants that,
according TO the alidavits on file In the
case some one had committed perjury
and he thought the county attorney
should investigate the case.
The court sent for the county attor-
ney and laid the matter before him at
the conclusion OF the arguments or the
attorneys on u motion for new trial.
The question of prosecution Is now IN
the hands Of the county attorney ana
he stated this afternoon that he would
probably issue a complaint against j..
H. Vaunatta. II seems that Vannatta
and two other men made an affidavit,
which was used By the defendants in
support OF their motion for new trial,
to the effect that witness for plain
tiff by the name OF A. A. Hoyey had
admitted to them that he had perjured
himself on the witness stand and that
he would do 1t any time TO help poor
laborng man out.
Vannatta atteHards made another
ahidaWt, whichHs used by plaintiffs
attorney, IN WHwf he denied that Ho-
yey had said aJvtpng about perjurng
himself while Jon the witness stand
There Is also Anoiher affidavit in the
files Of the case byanother witness who
said that Vapnhtta told him he was
sorry he had made his first affidavit
about Hoyey and that ne wished he
could get out of IT some way as he was
afraid II would cause Hovey trouble.
All the affidavits In the case are now
In the hands OF the county attorney
who will make thorough Investigation
OF the matter. The action was brought
by Prye to recover $723.62 alleged to be
due for labor performed in Kalbaugh's
quarry and judgment was rendered in
plaintiffs favor,
