A WOMAN TO BE PRETTY
Must Have Luxuriant and Glossy Hair,
No Matter what Color.

The finest contour Of n female face, the
sweetest smile of a female mouth, loses
something If the head is crowned with
jcant hair. Scant and falling hair. it is
low known, is caused by a parasite That
BURROWS into the scalp TO the root of the
lalr, where it saps the vitality. The lit
le white scales the germ throws up in
)urroW!ug arc called dandruff. To cure
iandruff permanently, then, and to stop
Ealing hair, that germ must be killed.
Newbro's Herpicide, an entirely new re-
suit of the chemical laboratory, destroys
the dandruff germ, and. of course, stops
the falling hair, and prevents badness.

Among the saying s attributed to Doug
las Jerrold is a very bitter one he ap-
piled to Mark Lemon, then editor Of
Punch. Lemon was deeply attached to
Dickens and showed it in very open
fashion, which perhaps aroused the
great satirist's jealousy. At all events,
as Jerrold was walking out one day
with Lemon and another friend, and
Dickens with several more behind
them, Lemon suddenly dropped away
and turned back, 'What has become
Of Punch ?" asked Jerrold's companion.

The manuscript for Bulletin No. II
has Just been sent to press. This
bulletin is essentially the report of
Prof. Bolley to the college and to the
department of agriculture at Wash
ington, D. c., of the particular fea-
culture while in Europe under the
cooperative directions of the North
Dakota agricultural college and the
! bureau of plant industry. The bull
letin is entitled ":Flax Culture" and
aims to give in a condensed manner
all of the essential features of flax
culture as observed in various coun-
tries of Europe together with the
conclusions drawn in such manner as
to make the teachings of the report
applicable to use by American grow
ers of flax and the users of fax prod
ucts. The report is illustrated by
twenty-five full page illustrations
and will contain in the neighborhood
of one hundred pages of printed mat
ter. On account of the great cost of
issuing this bulletin upon the special
subject of FLAX Culture it will be
sent out from the station only upon
direct application either to President
Worst or to Prof. Bolley. Fl

M The French philosopher N. lie Bon,
commenting on the motto Of the revo-

between the French and the British lay
In the fact that the French were enam-

liberty, while the British insisted on
liberty and never gave a thought to
equality. And when some one quoted
this to Rudyard Kipling he instantly
added his own comment to the effect
