Hesorcin is one of the most ef fective germ destroyers ever dis covered by science, and in con neclion with Beta Napthol, which is both germicidal and antiseptic, a combination is formed which de stroys the germs which rob the hair of its natural nourishment, and also creates a clean, healthy condition of the scalp, which pre vents the development or new germs. Pilocarpin, although not a col oring matter or dye, is a wel known ingredient for restoring the hair to its natural color, when the loss of hair has been caused by disease of the scalp. These ingredients in proper combination, with alcohol added as a stimulant and for its well defined nourishing properties perfect perhaps the most effective remedy that is known for scalp and hair troubles. e have a remedy which is cnielly composed or these in gredients, in combination with other extremely invaluable medi cinal agents. We guarantee it to positively cure dandruff and to grow hair, even though the scalp in spots is bare of hair. If there is any vitality left in the roots, it will positively cure baldness, or we will refund your money. If the scalp has a glazed, shiny ap pearance, it's an indication that baldness is permanent, but in other instances we believe bald ness is curable. We want everyone troubled with scalp disease or loss of hair to try Rexall Hair Tonic. If it does not cure dandruff and grow hair to the satisfaction of the user, wo will without question or quibble return every cent paid us for it. We print this guarantee on every bottle. It has effected a positive cure in JKt per cent of cases where put to a practical test. Ilexall ")3" Hair Tonic is en- lireiy unlike, and we IIiinK, in every particular, Itettcr than any thing else we know of for the pur pose for which it, is prescribed. We urge vou to try this prepara tion at our entire risk. Certain ly we know of no better guarantee to give you. Remember, you can lain Ilexall Remedies in Plalts- nionlh fnly at our store The Rexall Store. F. 0.

Finest. Bridge on Plat lo River and on the Omaha-Kansas City Scenic Motor Road." Messrs. (iuilil, Carr and Wat kins assured the president and secretary of' tho Plattsmouth Commercial club that Omaha would have a great representa tion here on the day of the open ing, and that Plallsmoulh would he given a chance to get, in on Ihe Omaha-Kansas City Highway as sociation, and became a member thereof. In a two-page article on the subject of roads in the various stales, the November Motorist says: "The Omaha-Kansas City association is a new project, and there will be a meeting held early this month to perfect plans for active work. It is proposed to have a route from Omaha to Plattsmouth, via Fort Crook, crossing over the new Platte River presented by the cast ot home and in surrounding towns for the benefit of the good roads move ment, and the performance has been very highly spoken of and has drawn large audiences wher ever given. A charge of 50 cents for any seat in the house will lie made for tickets of admission. The evening performance will be preceded by an open air band concert in front of the opera house. The entertainment should be encouraged and patronized by every citizen interested in the growth and advancement of our city. The opera house should be packed from pit to dome with boosters for the Omaha-Kansas City motor highway. Nothing would please Mr. Pollock more than to have a fine showing made at the minstrel performance. He has expended a large amount of money on tho bridge project, and Ihe enterprise is one of which everyone in the city can justly Married by Judge Beeson.
