Supposing there were no microbes,
there would be no putrefaction, no
breaking down of the dead bodies of

in water.

different kinds of bacteria or microbes
are successively concerned couvert

at last, when what were highly com

duced by the faction of first one and
then of another kind of microbe Into
comparatively simple substances of
twenty or thirty atoms to the mole

??ertrtlu special microbes, which con
vert these later compounds into still
simpler combinations? namely, ammo

food the carbonic acid, ammonia and

Cures that last are cures that tell.
To thoroughly know the virtues of a
medicine you must Investigate the
cures and see If they prove perma
nent. Doan's Kidney Pills stand this
test, and plenty of proof exists right
heTe in this locality. People who test
lfied years ago to relief from backache
kidney and urinary disorders, now de
clare that relief was permanent and
the cure perfect Can any Alaskan
sufferer longer doubt the evidence?
J. Prenatt, 311 Third Ave., N., Se
attle, Wash., says: "The relief I re
ceived from Doan's Kidney Pills over
three years ago, has been permanent
and I, therefore, cheerfully confirm
the public statement 1 gave in favor
of the remedy at that time. For two
years I had attacks of backache and
my kidneys were so weak that the
least cold I contracted settled in them
making my condition worse. Doan's
Kidney Pills promptly disposed of the
pains in my back and regulated the
passages of the kidney secretions. A
the present time there is not a symp
tom of my former trouble remaining.
I advise anyone afflicted with kidney
complaint to give Doan's Kidney Pills
a trial."

Just A Word To
THE FRONT ROW
If every man and every woman would begin now to use
Newbro's Herpicide and teach the children to use it, the
front row of the next generation would not be bald headed
and none of the ladies would be wearing false hair.
Falling hair means trouble. The dandruff germ is there
and will in a short time ruin the best head of hair that
ever grew.
Too many people, finding they need a hair remedy, al
low themselves to be duped into buying and selling some
thing said to be just as good or very much like New
bro's Herpicide.
Why do It? Such a remedy is but an imitation,
a substitute. Herpicide is the original dandruff
germ destroyer. Insist on having genuine Herpi
cide and take nothing else.
Newbro's Herpicide
Saves the Hair
The results from the very beginning are often astonish
ing. The hair will cease to fall and instead of being
dull and dead takes on the sparkle and luxuriance of true
hair beauty.
Herpicide possesses a delicate fragrance which appeals
strongly to persons of taste and refinement.
The Herpicide Co., Dept. L., Detroit, Mich., will send a
nice sample and booklet to any address upon receipt of ten
cents in stamps or silver.
One dollar bottles are sold and guaranteed by all drug
gists. Applications may be had at the better barber shops
and hair dressers.
