How the Evil One Came to Be Popu.
iarly Known as "The Old Scratch"

-
One of the many familiar names Of
his satanic majesty is 'The Old
Scratch" 1T Is undoubtedly due to the
fact that scratching is so disagree
able that people thought it no worse
than the evil one. "A scalp full of
dandruff keeps one scratching all the
time; not only disagreeable but con-
sidered very inelegant in polite society
AS it should be-because one ought
to keep the scalp so clean that it would
not itch. To cure the scalp Of dandruff
effectively, use Newbro's Herpicide. 1t
kills the germ that creates the dand-
ruff, which is preliminary to falling
hair. and, finally. badness. NO other
hair preparation kills the dandruff
germ. Herpioide also is a very delight
full and effective hair-dressing. Sold
by leading druggists. Send 10 cents in

Company, Detroit, Mich. One dollar
