One New Hampshire parish was

He was fond of outdoor work of almost

Funny Toothache Cures.

Before the days of dentists and when
people generally believed in the value
of charms there were ever so many
mysterious ways Of preventing tooth
ache One of these was to dress the
right side of the body first-right stock
ing, right shoe, right sleeve, right glove.
A favorite plan In Scotland was to
draw a tooth, salt it well and burn it
in full view on glowing Goals. In
Cornwall many save their teeth by
biting the first young ferns that ap-
pear.
The custom of catching common
ground mole. cutting off the paws while
the little creature still lives and wear
ing them is traced to Staffordshire,
England. Some people who are fond
of exercise believe that walking twelve
miles-no more, no less--to get splin-
ter of the toothache tree will drive
away the worst ache and pain that
ever tortured poor tooth. The belief
that toothache is caused by a worm at
the roots is prevalent in many parts of
the world; hence this cure: Reduce
several different kinds of herbs-the
greater variety the better-to pow
der. Put a glowing cinder into this
powder and nhale the incense After
ward breathe into cup of water and
the worm will be gone forever.

It is rank foolishuess to attempt
to remove sallowness or greKsiness
of the skin by the use of cosmetics
or focal treatment, as advocated
by the beauty doctors" The only
safe aud sure way that woman can

can only be accomplished by keeping
the liver healthy and active. The
liver is the seat of disease and blood
pollution. Green's August Flower
acts directly on the liver, cleanses
and enriches the blosd, puriies the
complexion It also cures consti-

induces refreshing sleep. A sing.S

RING WORM AND DANDRUFF.
They Are Each Caused by Pestifer-
Gus Germ

Ring worm and dandruff are some
what similar in their origin; each is
caused by parasite. The germ that
causes dandruff digs to the root of the
hair, and saps its vitality, causing fall
ing hair and. finally, badness. With
out dandruff there would never be bald
ness, and to cure dandruff it is neces-
sary to kill the germ. There has been
no hair preparation that would do this
until the discovery of Newbre's Herpi
eide, which positively kills the dandrufi
germ, alays itching instantly, and
makes hair glossy and soft as silk

sat up listening until the quarter

WEATHER REDUCES NuMBt r
Smaller Crowd Than Usual Hears Pc
tersen's Band Concert.

The cool evenings have caused a
slight falling off in the attendance at
the concerts at the Watch Tower and
there was only a fair audience present
last evening to hear the concert by
Petersens band. The band was also
cut down in size and only about third
of the usual number of players took
part. NJ NJ. Johnston of Wichita was
the soloist of the evening, who sang
1.-The Sword of Ferrara,' by Billiard,
and he also sang an encore number.
Mr. Johnston has baritone voice of
much power, very sweet and excellent
ly trained.
