Claims Dandruff Will
 Cause Badness

If you have dandruff you must get rid of it quick-it's positively danger ous and will surely ruin your hair if you don't.
 Dandruffy heads mean faded, brittle, gray, scraggly hair that finally dies and falls out-new hair will not grow then you are bald and nothing can help you
 The only sure way to abolish dan druff for good is to destroy the germ that causes il To do this quickly surely and safely, and at little ex- pense, there is nothing so effective as Parisian sage, which you can get from Lee & Osgood Co and good druggists everywhere. It is guaranteed to ban ish dandruffs stop itching scalp and falling hair. and promote new growth, or the cost. small as it is, will be refunded
 PaTisian sage is a scientific prep aration that supplies all hair needs an antiseptic liquid neither sticky or greasy. easy to apply, and delicately perfumed
 If you want beautiful soft, thick, lustrous hair. and lots of it by all means use Parisian sage. Don't delay begin ton;ght--a little attention now insures abundant hair for years to come.-Adv

If Too Fat
 Get Fresh Air
How You May Reduce a Pound Daily and Improve
 Health Amazingly

Lack of fresh air, it is said, weakens the oxygen carrying power of the blood, the liver becomes sluggish, fat aecumulates the heart action becomes weak, work is an effort and the beauty of the figure is destroyed.
 Fat put on by indoor life is un- healthy and, if nature is not assisted i'll throwing it off, 8 serious case of obesity may result.
 Don't wait until your health is ruin ed through carrying around a burden of unsightly and unhealthy fat
 Spend some time daily in the open air; breathe deeply, and get from any druggist a box of oil of korein cap sules; take one after each meal and one before retiring at night, also fol- lowing the other simple directions that come with the box.
 Weigh yourself every few days and keep up the treatment until you are down to normal. Oil of korein is absolutely harmless, is pleasant to take, helps the digestion, and even a few days treatment is likely to show a noticeable reduction in weight This system has succeeded when other remedies, etc., have failed It is the delight of those who wish to improve their figure and acquire younger appearance.
