NewbrO S Herpicide
Saves the Hair
And Keeps You Looking Young

Don't look older than you are It is
just as easy to look younger. While
lack of hair or poor hair is not always
an indication of age, it is frequently
accepted as such.
A person well advanced in years pos
sessing a good head of hair is always
spoken of as well preserved"
Everyone can retain beautiful, luxU-
RANT hair if they make the effort In
almost every instance poor hair or the
loss of hair may be traced to the
activity of the dandruff germ. New
bros Herpicide kills this germ and
puts the Scalp in a perfectly healthy
condition. With the destruction of the
dandruff germ the hair no longer drops
out The itching of the scalp stops al
most at once.
Newbro's Herpicide is the original
remedy for which there are many sub
stitutes, preparations claimed to be
Just as good" You don't have to
accept a substitute. Insist upon having
genuine Herpicide.

I would not. And the next moment 1

finally got on my head clerks nerves.
Then I came home, only to find the
children gone for their ride. And here

dreading S o'clock, and welcoming it.
I feared what I was going to do,

1 am glad, Diary, that no one will

and indecisive as a woman, and fully
as garrulous.
Dinner was over at last, and Miss
Lee took the babies upstairs. I won
dered as I watched her going up the
stairs with a child clingihg to each

little girl like her. What had the

I hadn't the courage to rebel, though
I heard gay laughter and many voices

Josephine arose and came toward

her hand, permitting me to hold 1t for

me to her friends. she led the way into

The Ladies Hospital Of Deming
BY R. BEDICHEK.

~ NE of the most commendable
institutions Of Deming and one
which has added no little to the
desirableness OF the town as a place
to live, is the Ladies' hospital This
institution had a very humble begin
ming about II years ago. The or1Gl-
majors of this enterprise were judge
Seaman Field, J. P. Byron, J. 4. Ma
honey and Dr.. s D. Swope. Some
time in the year 1893, these men
met and decided that the town, due
10 its central location, and the large
territory Unsupplied with hospital IA
cilities, needed such an institution.
Each Of the above named men gave
a bed TO the hospital. and a building
was rented from Mrs l. E MCDANIEL
was launched Its early years were
full Of hardships- The town was small,
and there were so many charity pa
tients, that it was by no means self
supporting. During this period, ana
for several years, the women who
were interested in the hospital gave
weekly bazars, selling handWork
cakes, bread and various other pro-
ducts from the households of Dem
ing Thirty to forty dollars q week
erty was cheap in Deming, the hospital
board had the foresight to purchase
six splendid lots on Copper avenue,
lust across the street from the Cath
Ole church The lots lay there and
cost practically nothing for a mum
Der of years, and steadily increased in
price. as is the way with all Deming
property
The first help from the territorial
government came in the way of an
appropriation of $500, several years
ago. Since that time the hospital has (
received an appropriation from the /
territorial government of $500 per
year. None of this however Is /
available for building purposes.

This building was rented and the
hospital remained in it until the new
and modern structure was completed,

At the time Of beginning the pres

was in possession of $4,000 or $4,000,

The rooms have largely been fur

furnished another; the Aasons are fur
nishing another, and so on. At pres
ent there are y beds, and the build

For the last five years the institu-

table that the number Of patients
treated in the Deming hospital is in
creasing year by year. As the 1acill-
ties for properly treating patients at
this Institution become more gener-

The hospital association IS not by
any means a closed corporation. In
deed, it is not corporation IN any
sense, except that the organization
was INCORPORATED under the act al
lowing any organization for the pub
lie good to incorporate so as to re-
lieve the individual members from in
dividual liability on the debts which
the organization might incur. It is
not a corpora ton in the sense that an

The Deming hospital needs and is
entitled to the support of every per-

worthy institution has been started
and is well under way by reason OF
the efforts Of certain public spirited
