more than so years ago has at last

tub is in their possession. The tub was

The hair is more exposed and hence
more liable to accumulate dust and DIRT
than any other portion of the body.
In spite of this the hair receives, as
q rule the least attention and no real
effort is made to keep il healthy.
If the dandruff germ Is allowed to
work unmolested and the scalp be-
comes crusted with dirt accumulations
one may expect the hair to die and fall
out. There is no cause for surprise III
this phenomenon: it is natural ana
happens in every instance where the
care OF the hair and scalp IS over
looked.
The one sure remedy which prevents
the loss of hair and permits healthy,
luxuriant growth is found in Newpro $

F|REMEN SANTA
TO LITTLE BOYS
Letter, Addressed to Patron
Saint of Christmas Mailed
in Alarm Box.

Even firemen are sometimes called
upon to play the part of Santa Claus.
A score or more of the fire ladies
left their quarters on the swinging,
rafting apparatus early today on an
errand for the good saint.
The errand was a simple one, but
the little friends of Santa did not
know how to do it, wherefore the
calling of the ffemen.
Two wee lads were on their way to
school this morning when one of
them spied a red painted box on a
pole at Albert avenue and Esther
streets. Oats de place. said his
companion.
One climbed up and the box was
opened. Then a much-soiled, un-
sealed envelope deposited within.
The two continued their journey to
school.
