Everybody in the Northwest knows
Col. Daniel Searles, the veteran jour
nalist and publicist of Butte. Jan. 10,

couple of bottles of Newbro's Herpi
eide with marvellous results. The dan
uruff disappeared; new crop OF
hair has taken root. and the bald spot
is being rapidly covered" Herpicide
is the only hair preparation that kills
the dandruff germ that digs up the
scalp in scales as it burrows its way
to the root of the hair, where it de-
stroys the vitality of the hair, caus-
ing the hair to fall out. Kill the dan
druff germ, with Herpicide. Sold by

LIQUID CURES ECZEMA
WHERE SALvEs FAIL.

In regard to skin diseases, medical
authorities are now agreed on this:
Don't imprison the disease germs
in your skin by the use of greasy
salves, and thus encourage them to
multiply. A true cure of all ecze
matous diseases can be brought about
only by using the healing agents in
the form of a liquid.
WASH THE GERMS OUT.
A simple wash: A compound of
Oil of Wintergreen, Thymol and 9TH
er ingredients as combined in the
d. D. D. Prescription. This pene-
trates to the disease germs and de-
stroys them, then soothes and heals
the skin as nothing else has ever done.
A Is cent trial bottle will start the
cure, and give you instant relief. Nc
