Why, the Tribune knows better than

slightest doubt of the success OF the re-
publican ticket every republican govern

WASHING WITHOUT WATER

Without Herplcide.

Did you ever see any one trying to wash
themselves without soap or water?
If you did what would you say of him:
II is every bit 90 foolish to try to get rid Of
Dan6ruff and 10 prevent Badness by feeding
the germs which cause il, with CaHthraiides,
Vaseline, Glycerine and similar substances
which form the principal ingredients OF most
so-called Hair Growers.
Hewbro's Herpicide is successful because it
attacks and kills the parasitic germ which
feeds on the hair roots.

II IS easy to see what Mr.. Taft deems

clntrol of the gcVer lment. To meet
the desire of the nation he promises to
call sn extra session of Congress should
he be elected president to deal with the
tariff question. He does not say he will
recommend a reduction of excessive rates
of duty, although he Is known to person
ally favor such reduction. He must
have the stand-pat.er contributions to
the campaign money chest as we'll as The

but while ore party wants to revise the
tariff to cheaper the cost of living, the
other party would revise 1t so that the
