No Place For His Talents.

At st. Johns a man slowed away
upon Harry Whitney's yacht, bound
for an arctic hunting trip. He was
discovered too late tc return him to
the little Newfound nd port, but
Whitney de rmined to make him
work his passage. He wasn't success
full at this, however. The stowaway
simply couldn't see any sort Of work.
Short of personal violence he couldn't
be made to button his collar.
"By thunder" Whitney said one day,
"I've notion to leave you here at
Etah." The stowaway seemed mourn
full.
"Bee.lieve muh, Mr.. Whitney," he
said emphatically, you haven't made
me so welcome ON board your jiggered
old yacht that want to stay. But
what could do up hereY He swept
his hand around at the Eskimo huts,

Making a eunsteek.

A party Of men were out hunting,
and an old woodsman who was with
them broke his gunstock in some way
or other. 1t was just about nightfall
when the accident occurred, and mas
much as he was very anxious to do
some shooting early the next morning
he decided to fix up his shooting iron.
Finding a walnut fence rail, he set to
work. His only tools were an ak and
big pocket knife. All night long he
labored vigorously at his task, and by
morning the gunstock was finished and
back in place and worked like a
charm.
"How did you do ity' asked one Of
the number, greatly surprised.

1 Many examples Of Chinese fllial piety
strike the occidental reader az ridicu-
lous. There is the famous story Of
Lao Laitsu, which Mr.. r. f. Johnston
repeats In his Lion and Dragon In
Northern China Laos parents lived
to such extreme old age that he was
himself toothless old man while
they were both still alive. "Conceiv-
ing It his duty to divert their atten.
ton from their weight of years and
approaching end, he dressed himself
up In the clothes of a child and played
about in his parents presence with
the object of making them think they
were still young married couple con-
templating the innocent gambols Of
their infant son."
A similar case is that of Wang P'ou,
whose mother had an unconquerable
dread of thunder and lightning. When
she died she was buried in mountain
forest, and thereafter, when a violent
thunderstorm occurred, Wang P'ou,
needless of the wind and rain, would
hurry to her grave and throw himself
to his knees. II am here to protect
you, dear mother" he would say.

THE CERT WHICH
PRODUCES DANDRUFF
Finally Causes Baldness.--Kill
the Germ and Save Your
Hair.--Newbro's Herpi-
eide Will Do 1t

Did you ever try to discover a reason
for the dying OF valuable plant? You
perhaps found that life was destroyed
by some insect or parasite working
about the roots and sapping away the
elements which go to support plant
life
The dandruff germ exercises the
same destructive influence upon the
life of the hair 1t forces its way down
the folicle around the hair bulb and
thus prevents the hair from getting
proper ncurishment. The hair dies
and dtops out.
Newbro's Herpicide prevents this by
killing the germ. 1t also frees the
scalp from the accommodations of dir,
and scarf SKIN. With the removal OF
these obstacles to clean. healthy scalp
the hair will grow naturally and lux
uriantly.
Herpieide is known as the Original
Dandruff Germ Destroyer.
One dollar size bottles are sold and
guaranteed by all druggists.
Applications may be obtained at the
better barber shops and hair dressing
parlors
