NOBLE ACT OF WOUNDED
 CAPTAIN WHO IS MISSING

London. - Three years ago Lady Robert Sheffield stuart qualified as a hospital nurse and went to France firm in the belief that her husband missing since the battle of NeuVe Chappelle, was alive, and hopeful that she might learn some news of him. He was a captain of the Royal Scots fusiliers and With four brother officers was severely wounded. Captain stuart insisted that his comrades should be re moved before he was taken off the field, and when the stretcher- bearers returned for him he had dis appeared.
 Lady Stuart made eager inquiries wherever her duties led her, but the patient quest thus far has been un- rewarded, and the missing officer is now presumed to be dead. He was the heir of the Earl Of Castle stuart, his elder brother, Viscount Stuart. having fallen at Loos.

 Boy Scouts of America.)
SCOUTS MUST PRAISE GRUB"

The gardening season of 1913 is here, the war is still on, and America is sending more men across the ocean to prevent the enemy reaching our glo- rious country, says Chief Grub Scout Hal B. Fullerton.
 America must feed these men, and feed them well. They are our boys who are risking everything, even their lives, to save our country, our homes, from the horrible fate of each and every country in Europe that our cruel enemy has overrun.
 That means more work, bigger work, better work for the boy scouts than the splendid work they did last year. Get busy; keep busy!
 This year every scout Is asked to be responsible for securing one adult to agree to work with him on the scouts individual garden or on the troop gar den or on the local council garden. The adult might be a scouts father, his brother or his sisters best fellow, his uncle or, indeed, any man who will faithfully stick to the job until the crops are. harvested.

 That such Is the case has been con- clusively proven by scientific research. Prof. Unna, the noted European skin specialist, declares that dandrur is the burrowed-up cuticle of the scalp. caused by parasites destroying the vitality in the hair bulb. The hair becomes lifeless, and, In time, falls out. This can be pre- vented.
 Newbros Herpicide kills this dandruH germ, and restores the hair to its natural softness and abundancy.
