He was a chubby individual of indefi-

that he was nearer forty-one.
Depositing Barnes pack on chair

the hall upstairs he favored the guest
with perfectly unabashed grin.

Length of Arms and Leos.

According to many measurements
made at the Anthropological labora-
tory In London. the right arm in
human beings is in a majority of cases
longer than the left arm. while, on
the contrary, the left leg is longer than
the right leg.
Sometimes. however. the relative
proportions are exactly reversed but
seldom does perfect equality exist be-
tween the two sides. The tendency
of the right arm to exceed the left arm
in strength Is sometimes greater ia
men than in women. while equality of
strength in the two arms occurs almost
twice as frequently with women as
with men.

Within ten minutes after an appli-
cation of Danderine you can not find
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 tirst-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
seraggy, just moisten cloth with DAN
derine and carefully draw it 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-
rance.
Get small bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine for 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-thats all-you
surely can have beautiful hair anG lots
of it if you will just try little Dam
derine.-Adv.
