Are Microbes In Your Scalpi
1t Has Been Proved That Microbes
Cause Badness


Cause Badness
Professor Una of Hamburg, Germany
and DR.. Sabourand, the leading French
dermatologist, discovered that a mic
robe causes badness. Their theory
has time and again been amply veri-
fled through research experiments car
ried on under the observation Of eminent
scientists. This microbe lodges in the
Sebum, which is the natural hair oil,
and when permitted to flourish il des-
troys the hair follicles and in time the
pores entirely close, and the scalp
gradually takes on shiny appearance.
When this happens there is no hope OF
the growth Of hair being revived.
We have a remedy which will, we
honestly believe, remove dandruff, ex-
terminate the microbe, promote good
circulation in the scalp and around the
hair roots, tighten and revitalize the
hair roots, and overcome badness, so
long as theirs is any life left in the hair
roots.
We back up this statement with our
own personal guarantee that this REM
edy called Rexall 1893" Hair Tonic will
be supplied free OF all cost TO the user II
it fails TO do as we state.
1t will frequently help to restore gray
and faded hair to its original color, pro-
viding loss of color has been caused by
disease; yet 1t is no sense dye. Rexall
1893" Hair Tonic accomplishes these re-
suits by aiding in making every hair
root, follicle, and pigment gland strong
and active, and stimulating . natural
flow Of coloring pigment throughout
the hair cells.

1893" Hair Tonic thorough trial and

fund the money you paid us for it.

FARMER FOUND

Gave Attention to Sick Horse and Rel.
atives Became Scared About Him.
Bismarck. n. D.. Oct. 12.-There
we're rumors afioat last evening TO the
effect that q. ]. Bostrum, living about
ten miles north Of the city. in Gibbs
township. had disappeared very rys-
ter.ously, and no trace could be found
Of him.
Mr.. Eostrum had came to town
Monday. but had dropped out Of sight.
The word was passed about the street
and notwithstanding he was q pioneer
here with a very wide acquaintance,
no one had seer Mr.. Bostrum. Last
night his son. John. had driven to
town looking for him. but no n
sesmed to know whether the son had
located the missing father. Up to
1880 o'clock this morning he had not
been located. A reporter took up his
trail and succeeded in locating the old
gentleman in a barn in the ear OF
the Franklin house where he was at
tending a sick horse. He was veil
and the horse was better, and his ex-
c~lusiveness had been due to the fact
that he had been staying by the horse
every minute since he arrived. Mr..
Bostrom said his son had located him
last night and had gone home to re-
turn with another horse today. but
had failed to advise nyone not
knowing that there was any concern
regarding his father.

BIG DRAIN IS
PROGRESSING
State Engineer Says big Pro
jeet on Mouse River is
Making Roadway.

Bismarck. n. D.. Oct l2.-state
Engineer Atkinson has returned from
a visit to the Mouse river dredge,
working on the Mouse river near
Deep. n. D., and reports the work
progressing satisfactorily on the con-
struction OF the Mouse river drain. It
Is expected that by the time the river
closes UP there will have been about
seven miles Of excavation on the old
channel during this season. Part Of
this years work will be as heavy as
any along the entire length OF the
drain, end for that reason it Is antic-
ipated that at least twice as many
miles will be made next year as will
have been made this year. The con.
tractors for this work are the France
Dredging and Construction company
Of Toledo. Ohio, and this winter when
the dreege Is laid up 1t will be thor.
ough!y ove-hauled and repairs made
to the machinery. so that it will be
in first class working condition and
ready to start as soon as the ice leaves
the river mex spring.
After leaving the dredge, the state
engineer went to Mohall. Renville
county. to advise with the drainage
commissioners in that county con-
corning the drain which 1t Is con-
templated constructing. leading east
from the city Of Mohall. to drain tho
many sloughs and potholes tributary
to this town. which have become a
menace to the health Of the inhab-
itants. Survey for the drain has been
made. but the work on the construc.
ton has been held up by legal pro-
ceedings. and It is probable that 1t
cannot be constructed until the sea-
son Of 1913.
From Mohall aIr. Atkinson went to
Pembina county to look over the pro-
posed location Of a drain west of
Crystal. where the Lost river comes
down from the Pembina mountains
and spreads out owe several thousand
acres Of land. making it impossible
to raise crops on the overlooked land
with any certainty Of maturing the
same. The surveys Of this proposition
are to be taken up at once by the
state engineer, and plans and specifi-
cations prepared so the work can be
let early in the spring.
