Success Exceeded French Hopes.

Paris Aug. 5 (Havas)-F'rench

mans between Rheims and scissors,
have lost touch at no point with the

For Itching Scalp

You do not want a slow treatment
for itching scalp when hair is falling
and the dandruff germ is killing the
hair roots. Delay means--no hair.
Get, at any drug store, a bottle OF
zemo for 25c or $100 for extra large
size. Use as directed, for it does the
work quickly. II kills the dandruff
germ, notlrishes the hair roots and I'M
incdiately stops itching scalp. 1t is
j pure, reliable, antiseptic liquid, is not
greasy, is easy to use and will not stain.
IS and shainpoos are harmful, as
they contain alkali. The best thing to
nee for scalp ifritations is zemo, for it
is safe and also inexpensive.
