It is familiarly known to KEN thousands of users throughout the World ******* as the Original Remedy for destroying \. dandruff contagion and saving the hair A and as a delightful hair-dressing.

SHARPS LETTER Luverne, Ala.. Feb. I*. 1913. I want to give my testimonial on the wonderful results of using; Herpicide. December 14th. 1911, we adopted a little girl from the Orphanage. Her head was almost entirely covered with what we term % "scaled heaxl." one side being entirely bald. T used every remedy I ever read or heard of including physician s prescriptions but they availed nothing. At last In desperation and as an experiment, he cause it isn't advertised for that, I began on Herpi'ide. The tlrst few applications stopped the itching, After using two and n half bottles she was entirely cured. I wish you could see her hair. If 1 had used any more Herpicide 1 don't know what we would h»\© done with it as she already has hair enough for tw.>. The bald places are well covered and it is peculiar that all the new hair is curly while the old hair is straight. The child, whose name is Elcurtis is now eight years old and calls herself the "Herpicide Girl." MRS. C. K. SHARP. Each day reveals almost marvelous and frequently astonishing results achieved by the use of NEWBRO'S HERPICIDE. There are surprises in every bottle which may be expected by the one who uses HERPICIDE carefully and intelligently. While the results are not always of such an astonishing nature as those experienced by Mrs. Sharp they are invariably satisfying. HERPICIDE eradicates the contagion that causes dandruff and thus checks itching of the »calp and falling hair.

MANY LOCOMOTIVES TO GO ON SCRAP PILE Inter-state Commissioners Fix Life of a Railroad Engine at Seven Years With the arrival of new locomo- j tives, thousands of old engines; throughout the country will go to the ' scrap heap. Stringant interstate laws j fix the life of a locomotive at seven; years. This means that at least 300 I engines In service on the main line of the Pennsylvania Railroad will soon be turned Into scrap, or undergo many Improvements. Standards for staybolt construction and steam pressure are also fixed by the Interstate Commerce Commission. The rules practically prohibit nearly tfill of the locomotives now in service from being used after January 1, 1915, ' Subsequently it was announced that ! the first series of locomotives built j within the last three years can re-1 main in service until January 1, 1920. j providing certain improvements are j made.

I'm not going to lose finy sleep over the affair, for certainly! I'll have no band in it. However, a ; Solution will be worked out and it is possihte that the 300 locomotives in question will be rebuilt In a way to comply with the demands of the! commission."

ORAL HYGIENE The human mouth is the most im portant organ of the bodv from the standpoint of prevention of disease although through ignorance of this fact it is the most neglected. The mouth is a breeding place for harm ful bacteria of many kinds. Statistics prove that over 90 per cent, of humanity have conditions obtaining in their mouths which are harmful and dangerous to the health of their in ternal organs. Health organizations have spent millions to free food, water and air from bacteria which would produce disease within the bodies of the con sumers. while at the same time many of these same harmful bacteria in habit the neglected mouths of such a great proportion of the human race If you are afflicted with any disease of the internal organs, first of all have your mouth put in a sanitary t-ondition and keep it clean.

Shipping- Trout.—Orders for the re sumption of the distribution of trout from the State fish hatcheries were issued to-day \>v N. R. Ruller. State commissioner of fisheries, following receipt of reports that conditions of streams were improving. Some days ago it was found that some brooks and creeks fpr which trout had been asked were s'n shallow because of lack of rainfall that it was not advisable to put out the yearling tish. Since that time the rains have bettered condi tions and trout are being shipped at the rate of over 1,000 a day from Bellefonte and at the same, from, Corry. All fish shipped are a year old, it is stated. Demands for trout, sun fish. perch, blue gills and bass this year are greater than ever known and the trout requisitions will probably be greater than the capacity of the hatcheries, although the year has been very successful in propagation. lawyers Honored. —Deputy Attor ney General W.
