say Where there's Dandruff cured Newrobs Herpicide has been at work"
 The reason of Herpicide's isolation as a genuine cure for Dandruff lies in the fact that it attacks and de- stroys the root of the whole trouble "a parasitic germ which feeds upon the material which nourishes the hair follicle.
 Other so-called remedies are not directed at this true cause of the dis ease.

BETTER BE SAFE
 THAN SORRY

insurance is one thing about which prudent people take few chances. If your time has a money value which is liable to be lost through Accident or Sickness you should carry an Ac- ci'e;@t and health Policy with some responsible company. You are talk ing no chances by insuring w.ta the Ar erican National The Company is an established legal reserve company, which long ago passed the exper:aen- tai stage. In fact there never was ! any experimental stage with tae Am erican National since the company was organized by men of large means, | who had sense enough to employ com- petent and experienced men to man. age the different departments of the ! company. In addition, they showed ! faith in the company's plans by put ! ting up $1O0OO0 with the State of ! Texas guaranteeing all policies before | the first policy was issued. So if you want safe and dependable in- surance, just as good when you are gone as while you are here to defend ! your rights, you will make no mistake ! in giving the American National your business. We opened the office here ; for the American National and have 1 never changed companies and our company has never changed agents.

The fly catching industry OF Lake
Texcoco is the subject of the first

many centuries a monopoly which
was granted distinguished Aztec war

treaty with the Casique Chimalpopoca
of Tenochtitlan in whose territory the
lake then lay, by which number OF
Tencan Aztecs were permitted to
catch flies on the lake in order that
the sacred quetzals OF the Great Tec
CALI OF Mexico City, might enjoy this
delicious food. The industry was the
subject also of other treaties.
The few men still engaged in the
business have to exc out living now

catcher Of Lake Texcoco will be no

San Antonio. Texas. Aug. 1S.--he
Oldest. surviving industry on the North
American continent is in imminent
danger of extinction; before long the
fly catchers of Lake Tcxcoco, Next
CO. must change their ancient and
honorable calling for one of more
modern origin. Even In the days Of
the Azteca, Lake Texcoco was famous
for its fly resources and tons OF the
insects were caught annually to be
used as poultry food. In more recent
years the product became even an al
ticle of export, large poultry raisers in
Germany and this country looking up
on the self-embalmed flies from Tex
coco as a choice tidbit for fancy stock;
In addition to the number Of flies
diminishing. Lake Texcoco is CONTRACT
ing today at much greater rate than
formerly and the few men who still
make living at fly catching will ia
year or two be obliged to turn
their hands to something else.

yes. as 1t were. The insect has the
habit OF swarming close to the surface
of the water and is caught with a
large net requiring considerable dex.
terity In handling. AS soon as the
catcher has spread the net over the
flies he dips it into the water for the
purpose OF drowning the flies and cur.
ing them. Owing to the large percent.
age of alkaline matter in the water
picking is completed almost instant
ly. The insects arc then spread over
large sheets and dried in the sun. AT.

The attraction at the Murray to-
night will be the Cutter Stock COM
pany in My Wife's Divorce" That it
will be well presented was demon
strated last night when this company
appeared in the same play. The Cut
ter Stock company was always a ia
vorite in Richmond and 1t is this sea-
son more deserving of appreciation
than ever before. In its presentation
of the play last night it gave the
patrons Of repertoire at this place
revelation. The company produced the
play with its own scenery, while in
the play itself have the members of
the company ample opportunity to dis
play their ability. Mr.. Cutter has Sc
cured a company this season that is
far above the average stock company
and his plays for the week will with
out doubt be presented as carefully
and as thoroughly as by any company
making a speciality of simply one pro,
duction. Vaudeville is presented be-
tween the acts and an evening at the
Murray this week will be one of pro-
fit and thorough enjoyment. Friday
and Saturday, The Cowboy Sheriff."
