MICROBES IN THE SCALP
The Latest Explanation is That
Microbes Cause Badness.

Professor Unna of Hamburg, Ger
many and DR.. Sabourand of Paris,
France, share the honor of having
discovered the hair microbe.
Badness is not caused through a
few weeks work of these hair mi
crobes, but is the result of conditions
brought about by their presence.
Badness may not occur until years
after the microbes began work, but it
certain to come sooner or later.
The microbes cut off the blood sup
ply They feed on the fatty matter
about the root of the hair, through
which the blood is absorbed Finally
the fatty matter is wholly consumed,
the food supply of the hair is gone
and it starves and finally dies.
Resorcin is one of the most effec-
tive germ destroyers; Beta Napthol is
both germicidal and antiseptic; Pilo-
carpin, though not a dye, restore nat
ural color to hair when loss of color
was caused by disease. These curatives
properly mixed with alcohol as a stinu-
liant; perfect a remedy unequalled for
curing scalp and hair troubles.
We want everyone who has any
scalp or hair trouble to try Rexall
"93" Hair Tonic, which contains all
these ingredients. If it does not grow
hair on your bald head, stop your
hair from falling out; cure you of
dandruff; make your hair thick
silky, luxuriant; if it does not give
you complete satisfaction in every
particular, return the empty bottle
to us, and we shall return every pen
ny you paid us for it, without ques-
ton or formality
Of course, you understand that when
we say that Rexall "93" Hair Tonic
will grow hair on bald heads, we do
not refer to cases where the roots
are entirely dead, the pores of the
scalp closed, and the head has the
shiny appearance of billiard ball
In cases like this, there is no hope
In all other cases of badness Rexall
'93'' Hair Tonic will positively grow
hair, or cost the user nothing. Dod-

SEASON OPENED BY
UNDER SOUTHERN SKIES
Familiar Play Well Received
by Iheater GOerS.

Under Southern Skies opened the
season at Glover's Opera House last
night, playing to large audience.
The play is well known to Ameri-
Gus people, having appeared here last
season. Only three or four familiar
faces were to be seen in the present
cast. The changes have largely been
for the better and though both the
leading man and the heavy were new
members of the company, the presen-
tation as whole was considerably
ahead of the previous season.
The work of Miss Oakman, as the
heroine, Leila Crofton, was especially
good. George Manning, as MAJ. Crof-
ton, the father, and Harry Linsen, as
Col Paul Daubney, furnished most ex-
cellent support. Miss Stella Congdon
as Aunt Doshey," delighted the audi
ence with her "old time nanny" wit.
The scene of the play is laid III
Louisiana at period few years after
the war. The plot is a story of rival
try between two lovers for the hand
of Leila Crofton A dishonorable trick
was resorted to by one of the men,
which almost won the bride But as
nearly always happens in the play,
and in the book, good triumphed and

IA BUNCH OF A DOZEN
NABBED AT ONE TIME
Grand Roundup by Officers
Sunday.

A file of dozen stalwart prisoners,
handcuffed together and flanked by
policemen on either side while a
guard trained shotgun upon the
covey, marched through the streets
on Sunday afternoon, the spectacle
being a most unusual one here.
1t was Chief Feagin's show, and the
street parade drew a crowd as it
reached the barracks.
Black crappers, escaped convicts
and a white man charged with aiding
a convict to escape, made up the var
iegated personnel of this remarkable
pageant.
1t was the largest catch made in
Muckalee swamp this year.
Unsuspectingly the players were
pounced upon as they sat beneath the
Seaboard Railway trestle Sunday af-
ternoon and rolled the bones. So

Saturday evening, and accidentally
came upon the crappers.
And a more astonished coop of
coons they were indeed.
When the game started the crappers
placed pickets to watch for them,
but these black videttes were also
taken in the dragnet. One or two
on the outside fled, one of them
catching bullet en- route to tn
reeds, but it failed to stop him
The ebony rollers were thus held
until detail of officers from the
city could reach the scene of cap
ture, nearly mile distant.
The crowd invoiced the following
choice array:
Charles Moment, convict; Jim Nc

Jesse Jenkins. "Nigger John, Bob

chaingang here Saturday, stole a
suit of clothes from a negro house.
Before Judge Crisp yesterday he was

tered pleas of guilty, while others
made bond in the sum of $3.50 each.
