ANOTHER WONDER OF SCIENCE
Biology has Proved that Dandruff is
Caused by n Germ.

Science is DOING wonders these days in
medicine as well as in mechanics. Since
Adam lived, the human race has been
troubled with dandruff, for which no hair
preparation has heretofore proved sue
sessful cure until Newbro's Herpicide was
put on the market. 1t is a scientific prep
aration 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 iuxuriantly,

A Cat with One Kitten.

A friend of mine owns a most
wonderful cat
A few months ago my friend had
occasion to "fit," and during the
hustle of packing and loading the
carts, puss and her kitten. evinced
great uneasiness, and finally disap-
peared. No traced of them could be
found inside the house or out, and,
much to my friends distress of mind,
she had to depart without them.
Only about half a mile along the
road one of the children shouted:
"Oh, mother, look at pussl"
Sure enough, there was the faith
full creature trotting timidly behind
the carts, and so she followed on to
the end of the Journey.
After examining the new home she
again disappeared, and just after
dusk my friend heard shrieks of de-
light coming from baby's cot in the
next room.
Gently opening the door. she be"
held puss rubbing her furry face
against baby, and he screaming with
joy, while, curled up In corner, lay
a poor bedraggIed kitten fast asleep.
The devoted mother had just taken
the bearings of the new home and
then returned for her kitten; carry
ing It all the way in her mouth, a
distance of three miles s. f. Chron-
