Hunger and the constantly increas.
ing cost of living are believed to be
the cause of much of the present dis.
content in Mexico and especially of
the recent recrudescence of border
raids. The last corn crop on the cen.
trail plateau was ruined by frost and
the embargo measures on foodstuffs
are also beginning to be felt. Prices
on almost everything throughout the
republic have risen to unprecedented
heights.

Within ten minutes after an appli. cation of Danderine you can not find a single trace of dandruff or falling hair and your scalp will not itch, but what will please you most will be after few weeks use, when you see new hair, fine and downy at first-yes-but really new hair-growing all over the scalp.
 A little Danderine immediately dou- bles the beauty of your hair. No diff ference how dull, faded, brittle and scraggy, just moisten a cloth with Dan- derine and carefully draw 1t through your hair, taking one small strand at time. The effect Is amazing-your hair will be light, fluffy and wavy, and have an appearance of abundance; an in- comparable lustre, softness and luxu- riance.
 Get small bottle of Knowlton's Danderine for a few cents at any drug store or toilet counter and prove that your hair is as pretty and soft as any that it has been neglected or injured by careless treatment-that's all-you surely can have beautiful hair and lots of 1t if you will just try little Dan- derine.-Adv.
