Ag*ln last night, as on the previous
evenings. Turn Verein Hall, at which is

crowded to Its utmost capacity. The staid
German matrons with their self-important

imagination to carry German denizens

The liberality which is being displayed on
all hands is in keeping With the fame of
the German people. Each night an at

DAlfDEUFF CAUSED BY A GERMI.
A New Discovery That Kills the Germ
aad Prevents Baldness. ."
Pretty nearly all the hair preparations
for tlandruff have some merit In allaying
Itching of the scalp, and in being a fairly
pood dressing for the hair, but there is
only one that recognizes what - causes
dandruff, falling hair, and baldness, and
that destroys the cause, a little germ—
and that is Newbro's Herpldde. , Thia
i germ eats its way into the scalp, down, to
J the hair root, where It saps that vitality,
-\ causing dandruff as It digs up the scalp
*2nto little white. scales. Unless it. is de-
stroyed there's no permanent stopping. of
falling: hair and cure of dandruff - and
