Better Than Glory.

He wooed her when her hair was brown
And when her waist was slim,
When every other boy in town
Was envious of him.
He walked with her in country lanes
When she was young and glad,
And youth and strength and hope and heath
Composed the sum of all the wealth
That he h d ever had.
He won her when her heart was light
And when / er heart was gay;
When every day was tair and bright
And care was far away
He claimed her as his own when she
Regarded him as one
For whom the fates had much in store
Whom men would noror more and more
For great things nobly done.
He has not won the wor DIS applause,
he knows h : never can;
His sep is slower than it was,
But he's an honest man;
She wears the bloom of outh m re.
Yet side by side they face,
Poor, bent, cd husband and gray wife,
Along the humble walks If lite,

THE POWER OF STEAM.
Many May See but 1t Takes Genius to
Realize.

When James Watt saw the steam
causing the kettle lid to jump up and
down he said There must be power in
that steam that it can lift such a
weight"
There was.
Millions prior to him had seen the
same phenomenon and regarded it as
en- unexplained mystery.
Recent scientific research has put its
finger on the cause of Dandruff. Fall
ing Hair. and consequent Badness, and
has unearthed a tiny germ which eats
the life from the roots of human hair
Newbro's Herpicide DESTROYS this
germ and consequently restores the
hair to its natural state.
