killing to Meadville and Sheriff R. L
Kones went to the scene at once, but
thus far there is not the slightest clue
to the perpetrator of the deed.
This is but another chapter in the
old Newman-Pritchard feud that has
existed so long in this section, and as
a result of which Willard F. Byrd lost
his life a short time since. Byrd was
riding in his field when he was shot
from ambush.
The negro Marsh was arrested as a
result of the Byrd killing, it being
thought that he was an accessory in
that it was believed that some one
had hired him to 10 the shooting. But
on examination there was no proof
to connect Marsh with the crime in
any way, and he was released.

Many Men Have 1t And Most of Them

Dandruff is caused by germ. This
germ is a persistent sort of germ. He
lives on the vitality stored in the hair
roots, and the longer you tolerate his
presence the surer you are of growing
bald.

only way to keep from growing bald

Nothing In the history OF medf.
