Mr.. Schartz was man universally

A GREAT DISCOVERY.
Certain Ingredients that Really Pro-
mote Hair Growth when Proper
Iy Combined.

,Resorcin is one Of the most effec-
tive germ destnoyers ever discovered
by science, and in connection with
Beta Napthol, which is both germicii-
dial and antiseptic, q combination is
formed which destroys the germs
which mob the hair Of Its natural nou-
riShment, and also creates a clean,
healthy condition of the scalp. which
prevents the development Of new
germs.
PilOcarpn, although not a coloring
matter or dye, is a wen-known ingre-
dent for restorging the hair to its
natural color. when the loss Of hair
has been caused by disease of the
scalp.
These Ingredients in proper combi-
nation, with alcohol added as a stim-
ulant and for its welLdefined nourish-
ing properties, perfect perhaps the
most effective remedy that is known
for scalp and hair troubles.

UP-TO-DAIE ADVICE
Churches should ADVERTISE Their At
tractions-A Tip Ia Ocala Pastors
and Deacons
by William I. Freeman

Mr.. T. :. Fe;ringer. ! talented ad-
vertising writer Of Newark. y. J..
originally started uut TO become =
minister 10 comply with the request OF
his father. ouc events transpired that
forced a change in his plans.
He became an advertising man in
stead. and il Is good fer the profession
of advertising that he did because the
character building that went on in his
youth and early manhood has enabled
him to practice those business prin-
ciples which have elevated advertising :
SO noticeably IN the last ten years.
l read an address which Mr. Fetting-
er made before the mems club OF the
Roseville Presbyterian church. in a
suburb Of his home town.
a part of his address discussed reas-
ons why churches should advertise
not in the small type. four or five line
spaces as they now DO. but why they
should advertise in a modern, human
interest. up-to-date manner, employing
the same talent. the same skill in the
preparation Of writing display copy as
every successful merchant or manu-
facturer employs.
Churches must make themselves at
tractive to the people. They must en-
ploy talented ministers. fine choirs and
promote cheeriness and warmth. Their
reception To strangers must not be a
stare or cold nod of the head There
must he a hearty hand -shake-a gen
uine welcome.
The church that will advertise that
its minister is human being-that he
loves humanity--that its choir sings
the old hymns and sings them we'll
that will welcome strangers-that will
open up its pews cordially just az a
man opens the door of his home 10 q
friend-such a church will not have
any trouble in keeping its pews we'll
filed.
The churches should boost them
selves just as every business is boost
ed-by the kind Of advertising that
Will command the attention of and Sc
cure the respOnse of the people.
