How to Be Rid of
 Disgusting DandruH

The only way to be permanently rid of disgusting, untidy dandruff Is to correct it's cause. Shampooing merely cleanses the scalp for a few days, then the scales form again as thick as evers
 To destroy the dandruff germ and get rid of dandruff for good, part the hair and apply little of the genuine Parisian Sage directly on the bare scalp, and rub it in with the finger tips for few minutes until absorbed by the scalp. You will surely be amazed at the result of even one ap- pIication, for your hair and scalp will look and feel 100 per cent. better. Only a few days massage with Parisian Sage are needed to destroy the germs that cause the dandruff to form. The scalp becomes healthy, the hair will grow better and show more life and vitality, and you need never
 be troubled by dandruff again. Faded,
 dull or lifeless hair is quickly restored to beauty by this simple process, which | is absolutely harmless, and will not stain the hair or make it greasy. Parisian Sage can be obtained from Lee & Osgood Co. and druggists
 everywhere. It is not expensive.

 there are about 330,0G0 full blooded In-

 l The Indian association, besides pay l ing salary and expenses of a secre- | tary in this country, supports an In- 1 diaE association secretary in India. The work that is being conducted by 1 the government among the Indians is | excellent and it has q fine educational l system. The missionaries have laid | foundations for development along the | religious lines and the future of the
 Indian race depends upon the develop ment of the present body. The Indian race is going to be absorbed into the white race eventually and there arg now only 56 per cent who are full. | blooded Indians. In about two more l generations the full blooded Indian | will be eliminated. The Indian prob. 1 lem is practically reduced to charac- | ter development process in Indian

The Right Way
To Buy Clothes

: In buying clothes there are some things you can see for yourself = the color, pattern, weave, style, fit, price.
 But there are some things you can't see-quality of 'in- sides
 You buy mostly from what you see, and for the rest of it you take somebody's word.
 The part you can't see is the more important. The service you'll get from wear ing the clothes depends mostly on how well they are made.
 The garments you buy here will be a guarantee that you get the quality on the Inside as well as the outside.
