NEWBKO'S
HERPICIDE
IsGuaranteed by

BOWDITCH, WEBSTER & CO.,
Special Agents.
Nearly everyone has dandruf7. and
must reconcile themselves to the idea of
becoming completely bald or resort to
the use of Newbro's Herpicide.
The manufacturers have absolute faith
in Herpicide to kill the germ and re-
move all traces of dandruff. So per-
feet is this belief that all dealers are
instructed TO sell the preparation with
a money back" agreement
Such supreme confidence is the best
evidence in the world of the merit OF
Herpicide. They know the result, hence
the guarantee. 1t protects the pur-
chaser.
Used as directed, Newbro's Herpicide
kills the germ that causes dandruff and
prevents the hair from coming out. 1t
stops itching of the scalp, which is so
disagreeable.
Send 1oc in postage or silver for
sample and booklet to The Herpicide
Co.. Dept. R., Detroit, Mich.
Herpicide is for sale by all druggists,
and applications may be obtained At

CHORDS AND DISCORDS

When the ices were served / nearly
collapsed The party broke up
shortly after the milk man reported
on his morning round. I remained
in bed until noon of that day.
After luncheon we. got out the
charts and began specializing as to
whether it would be in the interest
of science to search for the air fun
mel that Dimitry told me of in his
remarkable narrative OF some nights
ago. We have our dogs and sleds
ready for the dash to the extreme
north, but if we find we can make
the trip by quicker and safer
method we shall adopt the latter. Dr.
mitry has been accommodating, and
has Just returned. He reports that
he has discovered the funnel-if not
the one that he had his sister took
the trip in, one that behaves in much
the same fashion. On the morrow
we shall know.

THIRD INsTALLMENT.

Tuesday, the 18th, we arrived at
the home OF Dominic Muskoweler,
brother of Dimitry, one of my faith
full Esquimaux Dominic, we found,
was engaged in the ice business and
prospecting. He is fortunate in not
having any competition, although
somewhat handicapped in getting his
product to market. The plan he is
at present following is to arrange
the ice in RATS. These are foated
down to a railroad connection with
the various towns in which he has
customers. Dominic in his youth
was employed asa stoker on a Mis-
sissippi rafter and when he located
in these parts he applied the knowl-
edge he gained when steamboating
in working out the success of his ice
business. Dominic D. so thoroughly
acclimated that he goes about in
clothes such as we wear in the sum-
mer season in the states. He told
me confidentially that he expected
to marry some day and that he had
sent his photograph to a number of
the matrimonial agencies in the
states, but that all of the ladies
baked on the cold deal up here. One
youngster who said that she was
raised on the farm and craved the
life such as is lived in the barren
north disappointed him at the elev-
enth hour, he said. She wrote that
she was ready to come just as soon
as he provided her with furs. In
order TO expedite her departure he
forwarded her the money to make
needed purchases, but she never
answered him.
Emil Frozenupsky has recovered
from his illness and he Joined in the
festivities the night of our arrived
at the Muskoweler home here. Di
mitry had prepared such reception
as one hardly could expect in this
bare country. He had invited in a
large company of the natives TO meet
our party. There are no social lines
drawn here. Among the guests were
ice harvesters and merchants. Some
brought their wives After a big
dinner we danced. ] had to keep
dancing all the while to prevent my
body freezing, as Dominic insisted
on my removing my furs when ]
crossed the threshold of his home.

MAY FORM CORPS
First Aid Branch of Red Gross
Organization Will Probably
Be Launched Here.
RESULT OF GLASGOW VISIT
Plan Is to Take One or Two Men
From Department of Different
Manufacturing Plants.

Organization of first aid TO the in
jured corps may be effected in Rock
Island as a result of the visit Of DR..
NJ. w. Glasgow of Birmingham. Ala,
who Iectured here Thursday afternoon
on the subject. DIR. Glasgow is in the
employ of the Red Cross Society of
America and is touring the country de-
livering lectures on the topic OF first
aid to the injured.
DIR. Glasgow lectured Thursday after
noon in a Pullman car which was set
out on a siding opposite the Rock Is
land passenger station. Thirty or more
factory men and several nurses were
present and listened to an interesting
discourse. Briefly summed up. he di-
vided his lecture in the following
parts:
lures.
Controlling hemorrhage.
Treatment of shock.
Clean dressing for wounds.
Transporting patients
Treatment of burns and scalds.
REsCUING FROM BUILDINGS.
Rescuing persons from burning build
ings and from electric wires and resus-
Chatting them afterward.
While it is not expected that the men
who heard this talk will remember all
he told them, it is through the first aid
corps that they will learn and do eff
fective work. The idea is to select
one or two competent men from each
department of the various factories as
members of this corps. A medical adj
visor will be at the head of the organ
ization and meetings will be held once
or twice a month, when he will give
demonstrations and lectures. The mem
bers of the corps will be given first
aid text books to study and in this
manner will familiarize themselves
with the work.
ORIGINATED IN EAST.
The first movement originated in
the mining section of Pennsylvania.
Its wonderful results were rapidly seen
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1911-01-14

and today six cars with lecturers are
touring the mining section organizing
corps. Organizations have been per
fected in Pennsylvania, Oklahoma,
Tennessee, Kentucky and Alabama.
The trip by DR.. Glasgow is the first
effort made by the Red Cross society
to bring first aid work home to the
factory and railroad men. The idea in
sending it out is for the purpose of
organizing first aid corps in towns
and cities where there are large
shops.
