For Moving,
The above expression is one
whicli Is used frequently in connec-
tion with hair preparations. Just
exactly what is meant by tt in each
Instance is a question. Baldness is
not a disease and hence, does not
permit of\ai cure. It is a result in-
variably tolU* traced to the dan-
druff germ and if the condition lias
become chronic, that is. Jf. there is
complete atrophy of the hair fol-
licles, a "cure" Is absolutely imp le-
gible.
Approaching baldness, seen in
falling hair, may always be check-
ed and If the hair follicles are not
atrophied the hair may be indued
again to grow.
This la accomplish*'?! by regular
applications of Newbro’s Herpicide,
which e'eanses the scalp and kill*
the dandruff,germ. The destruction
of thA'germ does away with the ac-
cumulations of scarf skin and thus
eliminates the most common enemy
to beautiful hair.
Soft, glossy, fluffy hair cannot
grow on a scalp infested with dan-
druff any more than a delicate plant
can grow on an ash heap. The scalp
must be kept clean and free from
dandruff. The best remedy for doing
this is Newbro’s Herplcide which
receives the highest endorsements
from pro fees IdffST "men. the stage
and the bAst people everywhere.
Applications obtained at. all first-
class barber shops, and hair dress-
ing parlors.
