his fling in the papers as the savior of
his country in trouncing Vardon and

has yet to beat Travers in the National
Amateur.
1t is rare combination to find a
man who is master of both medal and

NEGLECT THE CARE OF YOUR SCALP
AND YOUR HAIR WILL BECOME A DISGRACE

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
a rule, the least attention and no real
effort is made to keep it healthy.
If the dandruff germ is allowed to
work unmolested and the scalp becomes
custed with dirt accumulations, one
may expect the hair to die and fall out.
There is no cause for surprise in this
phenomenon; it is natural and happens
in every instance where the care of the
hair and scalp is overlooked.
The one sure remedy which prevents
the loss of hair and permits healthy
luxuriant growth is found in Newbro'a
