Scalp That She Curea IJnnilraff.
Cleanly woman has an erroneous idea
that by scouring the scalp, which re

the dandruff! She may wash her scalp
every day, and yet have dandruff her
life long, accompanied by falling hair,
too. The only way in the world to cure
dandruff Is to kill the dandruff germ,
and there Is no hair preparation that will
do that but Newbro's Herplclde. Herpl

CHAPTER XIV.
Fortshadowinga.
NOW William saw that bit Lit
tle Sweethearts had been ao
inspired purchase, after all.
They had delivered the dual
tap upon a tottering edifice. George's
deeds at dliiuer had unsettled. bu; Lit
tle Sweethearts bad overthrown, and
now there was awful work among the
ruins, to an lroulcul accompaniment of
music from the front yard.
This accompaniment came to a stop,
and Johnnie Watson Jumped. tie
seized each of bis < ouipanions by a
sleeve and ^tpoke eagerly, bis eyes
glowing. "Here!" be cried. "We bet
ter get around there. This looks like
It was goin' to last all afternoon.
"Joe, you ge: the next dance wltb
her. and Just about time the musk
slows up you dauce her around so you
can stop right near where Bill will be
standlii', so Bill tan get her quick for
the dance after that. Then, Bill, you
do the same for me. and I'll do the
same for Joe again, and then. Joe. you
do It for Bill again, and then Bill for
me. and so on If we go In right cow
and work together we can crowd the
rest out. Come on quick!"
The three rau lightly to the dancing
lawn, and Mr. Bullitt was successful
In obtaining the u»xt dance wltb the
lovely guest of the day. "I did prom
ise big Untie Georglecums." she said.
"Well, 1 don't think he'll come." said
Joe— "^hat Is, I'm pretty sure he
won't."
A shade fell upon (he exquisite face.
"No'ty, Bruvva Josle-Joe! The Men al
ways turn when Lola promises dances.
Mustn't be rude!"
"Well"— Joe began, when he was
Interrupted b.v the Swedish lady named
Anna, who spoke to them from the
steps of the house. Of the merrymak
ers they were the nearest.
"Dot pick fella." said Anna, "dot one
dot eats—we make him In a pet room
He lioller! He tank he neet some
halp."
"Does be want a doctor?" Joe asked.
"Doctor? No! He want make him
In a amyoulance for hospital!"
"I'll go look at blrn," Johnnie Wat
son volunteered, running up. "He's
my cousin, and I guess I got to take
the responsibility."
Miss Pratt paid the Invalid the trib
ute of one faintly commiserating glance
toward the house. "Well," she said,
"If people would rather eat too milch
than dance!" She meant "dance with
me!" though she thought It prettier
uot to say so. "Come on, Bruvva Jo
sle-Joe!" she cried Joyously.
And a little later Johnnie \£atson
approached her where she stood with
a restored and refulgent William, about
to begin the succeeding dance. John
ale dropped Into her hand a ring, re
ceiving one la return. "I thought I
better get It," he said, offering no fur
ther explanation. "I'll take care of his
until we get home. He's all right,"
said Johnnie, and, then perceiving a
sudden advent of apprehension upon
the sensitive brow of William, he went
on reassuringly:
"He's dulft' si well as auyb<?4y could
ho did. He's always beetl considered
the dumbest one in till 6trr relations—
never did know how to act"
"You don't think there's any"- Wil
liam becan au<L after, a amuse, contin
j#k\\I.
I »' 'V
"No! He want make him in a amyou
lanca for hotpital!"
oed—"any nope or ins getting strong
enough to come out and dance after
while?"
Johnnie shook his head. "None In
the world!',' he said conclusively.
Over the greensward William lightly
bore his lady, while radiant was the
cleared sky above the happy dancers.
His feet moved In a rhapsody of com
panionship with hers. They danced
and danced and danced.
Then .Joe danced with her, while Wil
liam and Johnnie stood with handa
upon each other's shoulders and watch
ed, mayhap with longing, but without
spite. Then Johnnie danced with her
while Joe and William watched, and
then William danced with her again.
So passed the long, Ineffable after
noon a way-ah, seventeen!
" 'Jav a good time at the trolley par
ty?" the clerk in the corner drug store
inquired that evening.
"Fine!" said William, taking his over
coat from the hook where he had left it
"How J' like tbetn Little Sweethearts
1 sold you?"
'"Fine!" said William.
The haloed summer still Idled on ita
way, yet all the «hile sped quickly,
like some languid lady in an elevator.
There came a Sunday, very hot Mr.
and Mrs. Baxtet. having walked a
scorched half mile from church, droop
ed thankfully Into wicker chairs upon
their front porch, though Jane, who
had accompanied them, immediately
darted away, skipping as lithesomely
as If she had Just come forth upon a
••ool morning Kagerly she sought Gen
esis, who was turning an ice cream
freezer.
But as a group of five young people
passed along the othar side of the
street Mi. Raxter abruptly stopped
fanning himself, and. following the di
rection of his gaze, Mrs. Baxter ceased
to rock.
".My soul!" snia wiiuams ratner.
"Ilasn't tliat girl gone lioine yet?"
"I think she Is going soon," said Mrs.
Baxter. "The I'a re hers are to have a
dance for her Friday night, and I un
derstand there's to !>e a floor laid In
the yard and great things It's a fare
well party."
"That's one mercy, anyhow!"
Genesis < timed the handle of the
freezer with Ills left hand, allowing
his right the freedom of gesture which
was an intermittent necessity when
tie talked. In the matter of dress. Gen
esls had always been among the most
Informal of his race, hut ti day there
was a change almost unnerving to the
Caucasian eye. lie wore a balbonlsh
suit of purple, stiangely scalloped at
pocket and cutT and more strangely
decorated with lines of small parasite
buttons, In cc-lor blue, obviously but
tons of leisure; also a white, soiled
evening tie heavily o\ ei buidened by a
green glass medallion of the Emperor
Tiberius, set in brays.
"l'es'ni," sad Genesis, "now I'm In
at swim flyiu' roitn ev'y night wlf
