HELPFUL HINTS ON HAIR
Scalp and Hair Troubles Gener ally
Caused by Carelessness

Dandruff is contagious disease
caused by microbe which also pro-
duces badness. Never uses a,com or
brush belonging to some one else. No
matter how cleanly the owner may be,
these articles maybe infected with mi
crobes, which will infect your scalp. It
is far easier to catch hair microbes than
it is to get rid of them, and a single
stroke of an infected comb or brush may
we'll lead to badness. Never try on any
body else's hat. Many hat-band is
resting place for microbes.
If you happen to be troubled with
dandruff, itching scalp, falling hair we
badness, we have remedy which or
believe will completely relieve these
troubles. We are so sure of this that
we offer it to you with the understand
ing that it will cost you nothing for the
trial if it does not produce the results
we claim. This remedy is called Rexall
"93' Hair Tonic. We honestly believe
it t. be the most scientific remedy for
scalp and hair troubles, and we know of
nothing else that equals it for effective
aess, because of the results it has pro-
duced in thousands of cases.
Rexall "93" Hair Tonic is devised to
Danish dandruff, restore natural color
when is loss has been brought about by
disease, and make the hair naturally
silky, soft and glossy. 1t does this be-
cause it stimulates the hair follicles de-
stroys the germ matter, and brings
about free, healthy circulation of blood,
which nourishes che hair roots, causing
them to tighten and grow new hair. We
want everybody who has any trouble
with hair or scalp to know that we
think that Rexall "93" Hair Tonic
is the best hair tonic and re-
: storatlve in existence, and no one
should scoff at or doubt this statement
until they have put our claims to fair
test, with the understanding that they
pay us nothing for the remedy if it does
not give full and complete satisfaction
in every particular. Two sizes. so
, cents and s100. Remember you, can
obtain Rexall Remedies in Langdon only

A Trick Worth Trying.

Provide yourself with ladder which
you place upon the ground. Climb to
slowly up toward you, stepping down
ward upon the rungs until you reach
the bottom of it. Mount to the top
again and repeat the process. thus rails
ing the ladder each time while you de-
scend to the lowest rung. and continu-
ing alternately to ascend and descend
until you have passed out OF sight.
Come down in the same manner, and
to give an extra touch Of mystery to
the feat on reaching the ground deftly
palm the ladder. This trick never fails
to awaken the audience to the greatest
applause.-Chicago Post.

Voice Of the Ant.

There are probably sounds in nature
too acute to be distinguished by the
human ear which may. however. be
perfectly clear to the auditory sense
Of other members Of the animal king.
dom. 1t has been claimed that ants
have the most perfect sound producing
organs that have yet been discovered
In insects. These are situated upon
certain segments of the abdomen. the
sounds being produced by rubbing.
But nobody has ever heard these ant
voices. although many authorities are
convinced of their existence. An at
tempt was made to hear them with the
aid of the microphone. but the only
sound detected was that made by the
crawling Of the ants.-Exchange.

Havoc of the Hide Hunters.

In 1881 the buffalo hide hunters
shipped $4,000 buffalo hides to the
east. The next year the number was
100000 and in 1888 100000 Only 300
were reported in 1884. and after that
there was none at ALL In 1888 Sitting
Bull and his band, with some white
hunters. killed the last 10000 of the
northern herd. The last survivors,
twenty-eight in number, were killed
on the Big Porcupine in 1886 and We're
mounted for the National museum
With that the wild buffalo of North
America practically ceased to exist
except for a few in the Yellowstone
National park and handful in the
wilds of habasca.-Outing.

London's Muffin Man.

The muffin man mad no monopoly OF
the street bell when William Nv. was
king, as John Ashton records in a
sketch of that time. The dustman also
rang bell and yelled. and the post
mans bell was most popular institu-
tion. There were no pillar boxes in
those days. and the sound Of the bell
brought people who lived far from Il
postoffice to their doors to give the
postman their letters to post. In 'Pick-

even then the muffin man was chief
