 ''Dr. Brough's story reminds me of a promising young lad who applied at livery stable for job and was taken on at once. His first task was to grease the wheels of a carriage and in a surprisingly short time he reported to the boss that he had fln- ished the job. 'Whatn exclaimed the man, dye mean to say that yeve greased all four of the wheels a- ready?' We'll replied the new hand that's not to say all of them. I've greased the front ones.' But why didn't you grease the rear ones as well?' Seems to me- came the calm reply, that as long as the front ones go all right the ones behind are bound to follow There you have . fair illustration between Dr. Brougn a college man, and Earle W.

is to dissolve It. This destroys It en-

enough to nhoisten the scalp and rub 1t
In gently with the finger tips.
BY morning. most. IL not all, of your
dandrun will be gone. and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace OF 1t. no matter how
much dandruff you may have.
You will find too that all itching and
digging of the scalp will stop instantly,
and your hair will be fluffy. lustrous,
glossy. silky and soft. and look and feel

A PAIN in the back IL more often
~ a skin malady than anything
n else. The kidneys are seldom
source of backache. This
fact cannot be repeated too often.
The skin and the kidneys are inter-
locking directorates. When the skin 10
most active, the kidneys may be least
active and vice versa. The water lost
through the skin often leaves the KID
ney fluids thick and highly colored with
deposits like brick dust.
There IL perhaps more fluid excreted
by way OF the skin than through the
kidneys. II the pores OF the skin should
be glued up with gold leaf or varnish,
the kidneys would become overworked
and serious illness or even death re-
suit.
The unclogged, freely moving action
Of fluids through the human body pre-
vents the accumulation OF damming up
OF the waste and refuse. which the
wear and tear of life necessarily brings
to pass. Moreover. water has chemi-
cal as well as n mechanical action; II
dissolves as we'll as removes waste
products.
The skin and its automatic sprinkler
system reduces the insurance cost on
health and life by regulation Of the heat
and cold Of the tissues. When sweat Ia
thrown forth or evaporates heat Is
diminished. When the cold Is great
outside. no Precipitation is formed and
heat Is made and retained.
Keep Skin Clean.
Even the cleanest OF skins may TEEN
