Dandruff is the cause of nine-tenths OF

by germ. The only way TO cure dand-
ruff is to kill the germ; and so far. the
only hair preparation that will positively
destroy the germ is Newbros Herpicide--

Ayres (the Neaie Publishing Company:

novel dealing with life at the National
Capital, written by a Washingtonian.
Mrs Ayres has made much out of
subject not new and a plot not wholly
original The book, however, teens with
dramatic interest from the opening TO
the closing chapter II abounds in bits
Of description that are brilliant. Whether
designedly or for the purpose OF not put

sources of plot and counterplot, Mrs.
Ayres has confined nearly the whole nc
ton Of her story TO three or four char
acters, In Inning some Of whom she has
displayed an insight into certain phases
OF life that Is little short of genius. Her
men-only two of them-are types that
the experienced Washingtonian will
recognize as not oyerdraWn. Her women

speak and deport themselves in ways
