The marked preference for a clean and dainty preparation, particularly one that over conies excessive otllness and leaves the hair light and ilufly, la reilected in the enormous sale of Nebro's fieroiclde. Discriminating ladies become enthusiastic over its refreshing quality and exquisite fragrance. A WOMAN TOE PRETTY must have pretty hair. The features may be quite plain or even homely, yet if the head is crowned with an abundance of beautiful hair, attractiveness will not be lacking. The poet says: "fair tresses mans imperial race ensnare." Herpicide gives the hair a charming distinctiveness that la char acteristic of no other hair dressing. DISEASED HAIR A MISFORTUNE.

A diseased condition of the hair effects a woman's disposition to a marked degree. If the hair is dull, brittle and lifeless, owing to the pres ence of a microbic growth the effect is to dampen one's spirits and cause a loss of interest In personal appear ance. The use of Nebro's Herpicide overcomes the . ravages of the dandruff microbe, after which the natural beauty and abundance of the hair will return as nature intended.
