EXPLAINS WHY MEN
ARE GROWING BALD

Thousands of men are growing bald
every day and don't know the reason
why. Many of them never expect to
save even what hair is left.
This is indeed a pity. says a hair
specialist who claims that badness
usually comes from carelessness and
that anyone who gives the hair just a
little occasional attention should al
ways have an abundance of good
healthy hair. Dust and dirt help to
cause badness by clogging the pores
in the scalp and giving the germs of
dandruff fertile ground for prolific
breeding.
The treatment is very simple: wash
out the dust and dirt with any pure
soap at least once in ten days and de-
Stroy the dandruff germs by applying
every other night Partisan Sage, a de-
lightfully efficient preparation that
hundreds of druggists recommend as
the surest treatment to stop hair from
falling, to remove dandruff and to re-
fresh and inEiEorate the hair roots.
OF course, like all successful discoV-
cries, Partisan Sage has been greatly
t,attered by limitations which makes it
necessary to ask for it by name. The
cost of a generous bottle is very little,
and to supply the steady demand II. c.

ply on hand.

WHAT DYSPEPTICS
SHOULD EAT

Indigestion and practically all forms
Of stomach trouble, about nine times
out of ten. are due TO hyperacidity;
therefore stomach sufferers should,
whenever possible, avoid eating food
that is acid i'm its nature, or which by
chemical action in the stomach develops
actditY. Unfortunately such rule
eliminates most foods which are pleas
ant to the taste well as those which
are rich in blood. lesh and nerve build
ing properties. This is the reason why
dyspeptics and stomach sufferers are
usually so thin. emaciated and lacking
in that vital energy which can only
come from a we'll fed body. For the
benefit to those sufferers who have been
starchy. sweet or fatty food. and are
trying to keep up a miserable existence
on gluten products. II Is suggested that

tralize any excess acid which may be
present. or which may be formed, and
instead of the usual feeling of uneasi-
ness and fulness, you probably will find
that your food agrees with you perfect

ated Magnesia as a food corrective and
ant-aCid. 1t has no direct action on the
stomach; but by neutralizing the acid

which intiameS the delicate stomach
lining. il does more than could be pos
sibly done by any drug or medicine that
acts upon the stomach lining rather
than the stomach contents. Medicines
of various kinds should be taken when
ever necessary but there is no sense in
dosing an innamed and irritated stom-
ach with drugs instead of getting rid of
the acid-the cause of the trouble. Get a
little Bisurated Magnesia from your
druggist. eat what YOU want at your
next meal. take some of the Bisurated
Magnesia, as directed above, and see
