One of the most prominent druggists
of America made a statement a few

He said: eff the new hair grower,

sales as it has during the past year, it
will be used by nearly every man, wo-
man and child in America within eight
years.
"When Mildredina Hair Remedy is
used almost universally, dandruff will
disappear and with its departure bald
ness, itching scalp, splitting hair and
all scalp diseases will follow and twen-
ty years from a now bald head will
be rarity"
There is only one way to cure dan
druff, and that is to kill the germs.
There is only one hair preparation that
will kill the germs and that is Mildred
ina Hair Remedy. This unusual hair
restorer with its record of thousands
of cures will grow hair on any head
where there is any life left; it cures
dandruff, stops falling hair ssand itching
of the scalp in three weeks or money

ment who desire to have and to keep
their hair soft, lustrous and luxuriant.

The Master VIII Finish the Work


There is pleasing story that when
a beloved artist pupil had wrought
long at his picture, growing weary and
discouraged by reason Of the many
faults of his work, and had fallen
iasleep by his easel, the master came
softly and with his own hand correct
ed the pupils mistakes, and finished
his picture. So, when we strive to be
holy and to do our best, and yet are
ldisheartened by our failures, the
Master will come and with his own
hand correct our mistakes and finish
Jour work-the fashtoning Of his own
image on our soul. When we awake
we shall be satisfied with his like
tness.-Rev. J. R. Miller, DID.

the Quakers' victory in silence.
Every ball and every ~strike was
followed from the time Rixey struck
the first strike over on Johnston until
the contest concluded with Brooklyn
final demise.
Philadelphia went easy on Jeff
Pfeffer for n few innings but in the
eighth big Fred Luderus continued his
murderous clouting and sent the
Quakers into the lead.
This board aroused the enthusiasm
of the crowd as though they We're
right in the field, every move of the

minutest detail.

Coach Bennie owen smiles broadly,

be slow development IN the eleven this

into shape within the next three

material to build on. The second half
OF the Central game last week was
used by Coach owen most profitably.
