NINETY Y-THREE"
The Story of a Famous Name
and How 1t Originated

The foremost dermatologist in
France, DR.. Sabourand of Paris, and
Professor Unna, Hamburg, Germany,
discovered that a microbe caused bald
ness. To prove their theory, DR.. Sa-
bourand infected a guinea pig with
some of these microbes and in a com
paratively short time the animal was
denuded' of every hair that was on its
body.
lists were employed by the United Drug
Co, Boston, Mass. to find the means
of destroying these microbes and a.
remedy that would create new growth
of hair where the hair roots had not
been entirely destroyed.
After months of study, experiment.
ing and research work. they discovered
what they claimed would do what was
demanded. To unquestionably prove
their theory, 100 leading druggists, To-
Gated in as many different cities, were
requested to each furnish the name
of responsible person suffering from
falling hair and badness. Each of these
100 persons was furnished three bot
ties of the preparation with a request
to give it thorough trial and report
results.
Five of these people failed to report.
Two declared they had been bald for
years; that their hair follicles had long
been closed. and their scalps were
smooth and glossy.
Ninety-three of the 100 sent in en-
thusiastic reports, stated that they
were delighted with the hair-restoring
qualities of the preparation and ex-
pressed sincere thanks for the wonder
full benefits brought about by it's use
In commemoration of this. the new
preparation was named RexaH "93r,
Hair Tonic.
We sell this remedy with the dis
tinct understanding that 1t is free of
cost to the user in every case where
it does not completely remove dandruff,
stimulate the hair follicles, revitalize
the hair roots, stop the hair from fall
ing out, grow new hair and make the
scalp free from irritation.

NO WAY TO TRACE THE
PENNIES THAT ARE LOST
Where the IOO,OOO,OOO Turned
Out Yearly Go a Puzzle

What becomes of the vast volume of
copper pennies that are turned out each
year by the government? They are
never called in and redeemed like some
kinds of currency and coins, but they
seem to disappear as fast as they are
stamped and put in circulation.
1t is unusual if the date on any of
the pennies in a mans purse at the
end of the day is over 10 years back,
yet the Philadelphia mint, which coins
all the copper pennies, sends out in
some years as many as as S1,000,000
worth of them to the trade centers-
100, 900 one-cent pieces, says the
New York Times. If laid fiat, edge to
edge, in a row they would reach more
than 1000 miles. And still there are
some sections of the country, where the
penny is little known.
In many of the mountain districts of
the south the York shilling" 121a
cents, is still spoken of in trade, but
no one ever hears the l cent piece men
toned. In many towns in the south
and west the tradesmen offer nothing
for a penny, cent purchase is the
smallest that can be made. But of
late there have been more demands for
pennies from the west, and the govern
ment experts have declared that this
is sign of increased frugality.
In the east the chief use of the
penny, outside of filling The child S
bank and buying the morning paper
is for the purchase of chewing gum and
l cent candies. This is a habit which
Is increasing in New York city every
year. All the railroad and ferry termi-
nails and the subway and elevated sta
tions are lined with penny in the slot
machines, and they reap an enormous
harvest every day. So accustomed has
the public become to their use that
many of the more important stations
and waiting rooms have as many as
a dozen of these machines, which have
to be emptied at least once a week
Uncle Sam takes in many pennies for
stamps and postcards, and many of
them flow into the contribution box
in the churches and religious societies.
But all these ways in which the penny
is put to use does not explain where
they eventually go or what makes

ROOSEVELT Will
SPEAK At SEMINARY
Former President Gives Tenta-
tive Promise to Professor,
Who Returns Here

BERKELEY, Aug. 22.-After study
16 months on his sabbatical leave of
absence from the Pacific theological
seminary, DR.. William F. Bade re-
turned last night bringing the news
that Theodore Roosevelt will probably
lecture at the seminary in March while
in Berkeley. The former president has
already given tentative promise to
lecture here, and final word is ex-
pected in the near future.
Professor Babe spent his time abroad
largely in study, and he completed sew
eral notable bulletins of literary and
archaeological significance. Hhe wrote
the italian Social Movement in Rela-
tion to the Vatican" while in Rome
and other Italian cities and made many
contributions to literature bearing on
Dante. His theological theses at
tracted attention of European biblical
scholars.
Besides his studies in italian and
church literature in Italy, where he
spent nearly six months, Doctor Bade
devoted considerable time to the study
of the systems of teaching in the
various continental universities.
He was in Paris during the great
food and escaped from his hotel just
a Ody before the water or the seine
engulfed it. From the French capital
he went to London, where he was a
daily visitor at the British museum
delving in archaeological lore. He also
studied at Oxford university
While abroad the Berkeley savant
was the recipient of much attention
He met Roosevelt in Italy and later at
Dorchester house during the re-
ception of the American ambassador
He was honored at several universities
and assisted at the University of Turin
in the examination of candidates for
the degree of doctor of philosophy. In
Rome he was the guest of Count Co
voni and the Prince and Princess Bor-
ghesi. At Berne. Switzerland, Dr. and
Mrs. Edwin Mendi entertained him.
In England, where he devoted time
to the study of the social movement
he attended the annual meeting of the
social democratic party and sat be-
tween H. NJ. Hyndman and the count
ess of Warwick, the former founder
and leader of the English social
democracy.
Doctor Bade also attended the Hetch
Hetchy hearing in Washington, D. c.,
in the interests of the Sierra club, of
which he is director. He was also
editor of the New York Independent
during the absence of Editor William
Hayes Warren. He is now a contrib
uting editor of that publication.

MINERAL INK WAS USED
IN THE EARLY HISTORY

In ancient tinTes Indian ink, made
from lampblack and glue, was used
for writing on papyri, but inspection of
the earliest manuscripts on vellum or
parchment shows that iron gall inks
were introduced not later than the
ninth century. The reason for the
change, so we learn from the Univer-
sity Correspondent, was that although
a carbon ink is more permanent 1t has
no penetrating power and can be
sponged from the vellum, whereas the
iron ink bites into the fibers and rex
sists the action of air and light.
