DANDRUFF AND ITCHING SCALP
YIELD TO ZEMO TREATMENT.

Why should you continue to expe-
riment with salves, greasy lotions
and fancy hair dressings trying to
rid your scalp of germ life? They
can't do it, because they cannot pen
citrate to the seat of the trouble and
draw the germ life to the surface of
the scalp and destroy it.
Why not try a PROVEN REMEDY
one that will do this? We have a
remedy that will rid the scalp of
germ life and in this way will cure
DANDRUFF and ITCHING SCALP.
This remedy is ZEMO, clean, re-
fined, penetrating scalp tonic that
goes right to the seat of the trouble
and drives the germ life to the sur
face and destroys it.
A shampoo with ZEMO (antisep-
tic) SOAP and one application of
ZEMO will entirely rid the scalp of
dandruff and scurf DO not hesitate,
but get a bottle of ZEMO today. 1t
acts on a new principle and will do
exactly what we claim for it.

PARROT HAS A SENSATION
RURAL MAIL CARRIER RECEIVES
TWO THREATENING EETTRS.

stitute Was Not Satisfactory.

Jan. 1st, and Then That His Sub
stitute Was Not Satisfactory.
The town of PARROT has been the
center of sensation of more than
ordinary interest the past eight days.
On Sunday morning a week ago
Mr.. Smedley Flowers, the mail car
rier on one Of the rural routes eerv-
ed from that town, received through
the postoffice a notice which read;
"You are warned not to be caught
carrying our mail after January. 1st
If you want TO live stay in Parrott.
We have asked favors of you which
YOU have refused to grant The
communication, which was unsigned
and written in capitals with a pencil,
also contained abusive language and
stirred the little town as it never
had been before.
Mr.. Flowers put substitute car
rier on Monday morning, and sent the
threatening letter to the postal au-
thorities at Washington with the re-
quest that he be relieved from duty
for two months. Joe Christie, the
substitute who served the route last
week, seems also to have been equal
ly Objectionable, as Sunday morn
ing, just a week after the receipt
of the first letter, Mr.. Flower re-
ceiyed another one written in the
same manner and stating that his
property. which consists Of store
houses in Parrott, would be burned
if the substitute he had placed on
the route was continued.
Mr.. Flowers is one of the most
highly esteemed and universally pop
ular young men of Parrot, and he
and his friends are at loss to under
stand why he should have received
the letters. He cannot imagine any
thing he has done to give offense to
anyone.
The government will, of course, !
take the matter up, and secret ser
vice men put at work on the case.
