NEWBRO'S
HERPICIDE
Solves the Problem of
Good Hair

After Prof. Sabouraud
confirmed the germ origin
of dandruff, science was
confronted by a new prob
lem which was not solved
until the discovery OF
Newbro's Herpicid e.
Herpicide, being the first
successful preparation
compounded in harmony
with this new theory, be
comes the original remedy
to kill the dandruff germ.
Since then numerous
preparations said to be
Just as good" as Herpi-
eide have been thrown
upon the market; others
have adopted Herpicide
claims, but their remedies
remain the same, but none
have ever reached the
same degree of popularity.
Everywhere this remedy
is recognized as the one
genuine dandruff germ de
stFOyer. As a result Herpi-
eide has more satisfied
users than all other hair
preparations combined.
Being the original rem
edy, users expect more
astonishing results from
.Herpicide than they would
look for from any other
preparation and they usu-
ally get them. SO Won
derful has been the sue
cess of this germicide that
it is now recognized as the
standard hair remedy of
the world.
Herpicide kills the dan
druff germ, checks falling
hair. 1t stops itching of
the scalp almost instantly.

SWANS bakery and restaurant For
Is months the board of trade has kept
the lumber company going in an effort
TO pull it through. but finally decided

The restaurant has been in trouble for
three weeks. Both concerns filed ad-
missions of inability to pay when the

the papers bearing the name of Joseph
Kirk, attorney for the board of trade
SWANS was established in pioneer
days. In its old quarters in Sutter
street near Kearny it drew patrons of
the second and third generation. Many
oldtimers would dine nowhere else.
Unaccompanied women were especially
fond of the place Attorney Kirk says
that had Frank Swain consented his
debts would have been settled by his
creditors for sentimental and personal
reasons. But the location at 140 OFar-
rell street is considered hopeIessly un-
fortunate, just as was Swain's tenn
porary location after the fire in Post
street near van Ness avenue Inc
business was taken into the hands of
the board of trade three weeks ago.
The lumber compauy's liabilities
amount to about 5000 600 No esti-

possibly two of the train robbers who
held up and robbed Missouri Pa
cific train Friday night, are under ar
rest there.
Fireman Slocum and Engineer Loose

said they thought the other was an
other bandit who did not enter the
engine cab. Both said one of the
men under arrest was one of the two
who entered the train at Eureka and
later climbed over the tank of The en-.
gine, compelling them to run the en-.
gine ahead and finally to cut off the
baggage and mail cars. Fireman Slo-
cum, while on his regular run, saw
two men on freight train. He was
positive that one was the man who
entered the cab and threatened tc
shoot him. He went on to Jefferson
City and notified the police.
Slocum remained there and had tht
police search for the men when tht
freight arrived. The two men wer,
seen in a railroad restaurant and triet
to escape when officers appeared.
