HOW TO Be RID OF
CHRONIC DANDRUFE

The only way to get rid OF disgust.
ing untidy dandruff is to correct ITS
cause. Shampooing merely cleanses the
scalp for a few days, then the scaioi
form again as thick as ever.
To destroy the dandruff germ and
get rid Of the dandruff for good, part
the hair and apply little OF the gen.
utne Partisan Sage directly on the
bare scalp and rub 1t in until absorb.
ed. You will surely be amazed at
the result of even one application, for
your hair and scalp will look ana feel
100 per cent. better, Only a few
days massage with Partisan Sage
should be needed to destroy the germs
that cause dapdrutf to form. The
scalp becomes healthy, the hair will
grow better show more life and vitality
and you should no longer be troubled
by dandruff. Faded, dull or lifeless
hair is quickly restored to beauty by
this simple process. Partisan Sage
can be obtained from Mt. City Drug
Co., and druggists everywhere. It Is
not expensive.

the old barges anchored there, where
you could get sea food in abundance.
At night when the lights came out like

Mrs. MACEDONIAN had kept house for
the captain for years in the snug little

after he had gone away, she stayed on,
looking after Peggie. And with Ben
and his three assistants they remained
a contented household until the com

One morning after Beg had opened
the old.fashioned wooden shutters out

had started the whirr of her sewing
