FEW CENTS DESTROYS
YOUR DANDRUFF AND
STOPS FALLING HAIR
1 Save Your Hair! Make it Thick.
Wavy and neautiful---Try This!

Thin, brittle, colorless and scraggy
hair is mute evidence of neglected
scalp; of dandruff--that awful
scurt.
There Is nothing so destructive to
the hair Is dandruff. 1t robs the hair
OF it's lustre, it's strength and it's very
life; eventually producing a fever
ishness and itching Of the scalp,
which If not remedied causes the
hair roots to shrink, loosen and die
then the hair falls out fast. A
little Danderine to-night--now--an
time-will surely save your hair.
Get small bottle OF ,Knowlton's
Danderine from any drug store or
toilet counter, and after the first APP
plication your hair will take on that
life, lustre, and luxuriance which
is so beautiful. 1t will become wayy
and fluffy and have the appearance
Of abundance, an Incompatible gloss
and softness; but what will please
you most will be after just few
weeks use, when you will actually
see a lot OF fine, downy hair--new
hair growing all overt the scalp. adj,

to defend his country and it's flag.
f Nearly every civilized country gives
Its boys military training. It Is com.
pulsOry. It is based upon the fact that
1t Is the duty Of everyone to help de-
fend his country; and as war is now
carried on, no one can do much unless
he Is trained. Also, the records show
that the killed and wounded among
unframed troops is nearly three times
as great as 1t Is with well-trained men
who know how to fight and how to
protect themselves. BY this plan q

with my kidneys, they acted irregu-

back was awfully painful, especially
after I had been walking or when I
lifted anything. When I sat down a
few minutes my back became so stiff,
Icould hardly get up again. Ny limbs
throbbed with pain and I felt tired and
weak. Everything would whirl before
my eyes sometimes when got up from
a chair. Doan's Kidney Pills, which I
