COOKING CHILDREN.
The beating arrangement of the 7th
grade room in the Heppner school needs
looking after before it causes the sick
ness or death of some of the children.
There are too many pupils in the
room, and those who have to si) close
to the stove get roasted. When they
shut off the draft, children at the fur
ther end of the room get chilled.
It costs the taxpayers enough to run
the school, so tbat no expense should
be spared in looking after the health and
comfort of the children.

DANDRUFF WON'T WASH OUT.
Toe Germ That Canaes It Hst to Be Dei
strojred, to Care Dandruff.
Many a woman spends an hour twice
week scouring her scalp, thinking
scrubbing off the scurf will cure the
dandruff. Two hours a week, at tbe
age of 40 years, she has spent 200 days
of 12 hours each, or two-thirds of a year
of ber lite, in that vain hope; vain, be'
cause you cannot cure dandruff without
killing tbe dandruff germ, and the only
hair preparation on earth that will do
this is Newbro's "Herpicide" also
delightful hair dressing, and thorough
antiseptic against all contagion from use
of others hair brushes. It Is also a de
ligbtful hair dressing.
