Quite a sensation has been caused
in this borough over what appears to
hare been the ghost OF a piano which
was brought into town from New
Brunswick one day last week. The
man. or apparitiOn of a man, stopped
and inquired at a store in Broadway
where Mrs. VanBuren. sister of John
Lucitt, a baker in Broadway, resided.
He was directed to Mr.. Lucitt's house
and was seen by Il gentleman to stop
there and unload a piano. Another
gentleman who was passing by the
house saw d crowd of boys, all myths
supposedly, standing gazing at the
novel sight of a piano being hcistcd
up in front of John Lucitts bakery
to the roof of the extension and 80 on
to the front part of the dwelling.
Given to the correspondent as an
item OF news, the correspondent re-
ported it and stated that John Lucitt
had purchased a new piano, knowing
that it had been taken into his resi-
dence and also, because whenever
news of any guests visiting anyone in
the house had been given by them to
the correspondent, they always said
SAY that JOHN Lucitt entertained
them" The/ correspondent was
amazed on seeing in the Citizen that
the said John Lucitt denied having
purchased a piano and learned later
on thai he had requested the editor
to deny it in the Citizen, and also saw

kough we have heard music

ANOTHER WoNEER OF sclHNcE
biology has Proved that Dandruf Is
Caused by "a Germ.

Science is DOING wonders these days in
medicine as well as in mechanics. Since
Adam lived, the human race has been
troubled with d%andruff, for which no hair
preparation has heretofore proved a sue
cessful cure until Newbro's Herpicide was
put on the market. 1t is a scientific prep
lration that kills the germ that makes
dandruff or scurf by digging into the
scalp to get at the root of the hair, where
it saps the vitality; causing itching scalp,
falling hair, and finally badness. With
out dandruff hair must grow luxuriantly.
1t is the only destroyer of dandruff.
