ARE MICROBES IN
YOUR SCALP?
1t Has Been Proved That Microbes
Cause Badness


Professor Unna of Hamburg
Germany, and DIR. Sabourand, the
leading French dermatologist, dis
covered that a microbe causes bald
ness. Their theory has time and
again been amply verified through
research experiments carried on under
the observation of eminent scientists.
This microbe lodges in the Sebum,
which is the natural hair oil, and
when permitted to flourish it DESTROYS
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,
exterlninate the microbe, promote
guod circulation il the scalp and
around these hair roots, tighten and
revitalize the hair roots, and over
come badness, So long as there is any
life left in the hair roots. We back
up this statement with our own
personal guarantee that this remedy
called Rexall "93'' Hair Tonic will
be supplied free of all cost to the user
if 1t fails to do as we state.
1t will frequently help to restore
gray and faded hair to it's original
color, providing loss of color has been
caused by disease; yet it is in no
sense a dye. Rexall "93' Hair
Tonic accomplishes these results by
aiding in making every hair root,
follicle, and pigment gland strong
and active, and by stimulating
natural flow of coIoripg pigment
throughout the hair cells.
We exact no obligations or
promises-we simply ask you to give
Rexall ''93' Hair Tonic thorough
trial and if not satisfied tell us and
we will refund the money you paid us
for it. Two sizes. prices 80 cents
and $1.00 Remember, you can
obtain it in Lancaster only at our
Street.-The Rexall Store. J. T.

School Days In A Year

"HOW MANY DAYS IN THE YEAR

to the WHIG office from an esteemed
correspondent this week, and when we
had figured it the answer was SO sur
prising that it occurred to us other peo-
pie in the county might like to share
the surprise. 1t is not hard information
to obtain, but a little casual inquiry,
from folks We have met, reveals the fact
that few people have ever stopped to
figure out that information. We never
had done so ourselves. Hence our sur
prise. And we are rambling along this
way, without telling you promptly what
the figures show, just to give you a
chance to do a little figuring on your
will not be too much of shock. In
other words We are trying to let you
down easy, so that you will be prepared
/ to accept our yeracity aud accuracy
when we tell you that the schools this
school year WILL BE OPEN FOR 14S
DAYS, provided no epidemic or other cal
amity causes them to be closed specially.
Subtract 217-the number of days the
schools are closed-from 365-the num-
Der of days in the year-and see If we
are not correct

find in one corner 1861, in the other 1912.
That means that Mr.. Reed has been con-

in Chesapeake City from 1861 until the
present-OR MORE THAN HALF A
CENTURY. Wonder If there is another
merchant in this county who can equal
Mr.. Reeds record. Incidentally 1t may

A White Christmas

Well, it was a white Christmas all
eight. 1t began getting white shortly
after midnight Monday night, and kept
getting whittier and whittier all through
Tuesday morning. By noon of Tuesday
the snow lay deep and level everywhere
and it began to look as if we might be
in for a tie-up of travel and traffic. The
children were afraid Old Kris could not
come through. But, pshaw, it takes a
bigger snow storm than that to block
Saint Christopher and his daunt!ess team
pf hardy reindeers. THEY CAME
THROUGH ALL RIGHT, dancing and
prancing and shaking their bells as they
shook Off the snow, while Kris jus;
laughed his jolly little laugh at the way
his old sleigh was flying from house to
house and the things he was leaving
here to gladden. little children's hearts.
He dun't mind the snow a bit. Neither
did anybody else 1t behaved so beauti-
fully. No drifting into nasty piles-too
another. 1t just spread itself out nicely
and evenly over everything, so that new
sleds could bob, and things on run
ners could run, and everybody could
nave real old-fashioned Christmas time.
Which they did-around these "diggins",
anyhow. Bells were jingling, CHEEKY
Eoices cheering, snow fights were in full
plast and the worst old crouch" in the
perg was dumb as as an oyster-he
couldn't think to save his soul, of any
other Christmas that had this Chris tmas
beat a mile" Cause there amt none.
It was as good as any Christmas you
ever saw when YOU were a boy; and il
you don't believe it, ask your boy, if you
are lucky enough to have one.
Yes it was a white Christmas-EVERY
WAY
