Of change Of occupation to rest my
nerves. am not strong physically,

ways worked hard, probably too hard
for my own good.
What would you suggest that !

sition and writing especially well.
Il should not care to do any can
vassing, and feel that too close appli-
cation to any indoor work would be un-
wise. like housework and enjoy teach
ing.
DO you think that going west and
teaching out on the plains would be
enough of q change from teaching In
the grades? The western school where
I have been offered a position is several
miles from a small town in state
where the winters are quite cold. Posi-
ly life there would be rather lonely and
monotonous. My friends advise a year
of complete rest, but my disposition is
such that I cannot rest doing nothing.

must be employed, otherwise I fret and

SAVES THE HAIR
AND KEEPS YOU LOOKING
YOUNG.

Don't look older than you are. II is
just as easy to look younger. While
lack of hair or poor hair is not always
an indication of age, it is frequently
accepted as such.
A person well advanced in years pos
sessing good head of hair is always
spoken of as "well preserved"
Everyone can retain beautiful, lux
uriant hair if they make the effort. In
almost every instance poor hair or the
loss of hair may be traced to the aetiv-
ity of the dandrufF germ. Newbro g
Herpieide prevents the scale-lke ac-
cumulatiOn and puts the scalp in per
fectly healthy condition. With the
elimination of the dandruff the hair NO
longer drops ont. The itching of the
scalp stops almost at once.
NewbrO's Herpicide is the remedy for
which there are many substitutes, pre-
parations claimed to be Just as good -
You don't have to accept substitute
Insist upon having genuine Herpicide.
Newbro's Herpicide in soc and Sl.0O
sizes is sold by all dealers who guar
antee it to do all that is cliamed. h
you are not satisfied your money will
