SUCCEEDS LIKE SUCCESS Why Is Newbro's Herplclde a success? Because It has the "Force" or capacity to produce an effect What is the effect? The destruction of the invisible, vine-like, microbic growth that lodges in the sebaceous glands of the hair follicles, where Its growth and development causes dan ruff, Itching scalp, failing hair, and later, incurable bald ness. Is Herplclde pleasant to use? Clear as crystal Newbro's Herplclde Is the daintiest, most delightful and refreshing application ever prepared for the scalp. It contains no oil, grease, sediment or dye matter. Careful people who now consider it a duty to use a scalp prophylactic, to insure cleanliness and freedom from dandruff contagion, prefer Newbro's Herplclde on account of its extreme purity, exquisite fragrance and refreshing quality. Ladles, In particular, become enthusi astic over It, because it keeps the hair light and fluffy and gives It a silken gloss.

Before this discovery, ap proaching baldness was considered inevitable, and after It came the scalp was treated with tincture of canthar Ides (made from dried blistering bugs) and other Irritant to make the hair "grow," Every dermatologist now recog nizes the fallacy of this treatment. Save your hair while you have hair to save. Kill the dandruff germ with Newbro's Herplclde and give nature a chance; marvelous Iresults will follow. MATERIALLY BENEFITED BY ITS USE.
