NATURE SPARES
The Strlckcn Ruse From Grief.
What a fortunate provision of nature
It Is. that deprives the rose of mental
suffering: for how poignant would bo its
grief to discover, in the height of Its
bloomlr.fr glory. that a canker fed at Its
heart, and that its beauty and fragrance
were doomed forever. Nature always
spares the suffering: she is a veritable
store-house of pleasing rewards, for
those who seek her aid. In the years
gone by falling hair anl grayness have
cast a gloom over the lives of thousands
of young women, but thanks to the in
vestigations of scientists the true cause
of hair destruction !s now known to be
a germ or parasite that burrows into
the hair follicles. Jfewbro's Herpicide
absolutely destroys this germ, thus
permitting the hair to grow as na
ture intended. Sold by leading drug
gists Send 10c. in stamps for sample
