TAKES OFF DANDRUFF

Glossy, Fluffy, 5eaptiful-No
More itching Scalp.


Within ten minutes after an appli-
cation of Danderine you cannot find a
single trace of dandruff or falling hair
and your scalp will not itch, but what
will please you most will be after a
few weeks use, when you see new
hair, fine and downy at first-yes-but
really new hair-growing all over the
scalp.
A little Danderine Immediately dou-
bles the beauty of your hair. No diff
ference how dull, faded, brittle and
scraggy, just moisten cloth with
Danderine and carefully draw it
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time. The effect is amaz-
ing-your hair will be light, fluffy and
wavy, and have an appearance Of
abundance; an Incompatible luster,
softness and luxuriance.
Get rs cent bottle Of Knowlton's
Danderine from any store, and prove
that your hair is as pretty and soft
as any-that 1t has been neglected or
injured by careless treatment-that's
all-you surely can have beautiful hair
and lots of it If you will just try lit

Martin H. Glynn, lieutenant COVER

first in the history of the state to step
into its high office in this manner.
The outgoing executive issued a
statement in which he denounced the
tribunal which had removed him as
"Murphy's high court of infamy"
Among other things the ex-governor
said:
"AIy trial from beginning to end was

"Mr. Murphy was the judge, the
