.DANDRUFFY HEADS
BECOME HAIRLESS
Scalp Dries-Chokes out the Hair
And Prevents its Growth.

II you want plenty of thick, beautiful,
glossy, silky hair, do by all means get
lid Of dandruf, for it will starve your
hair and ruin it if you don't.
It doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out. The only sure way
TO get rid of dandruff is to dissolve It,
then you destroy it entirely. To do this,
get about four ounces OF ordinary liquid
aryon; apply it at night when retiring /;
use enough to poisten the scalp and rub
il il, gently with the finger tips.
By morning most, if not all, OF your
dandruff will be gene, and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace of it.
You will find, too, that all itching and
digging of the scalp will stop, and your
i,air will be silky, fluffy, lustrous, soft
and look and feel hundred times bet
Ter. You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. It is inexpensive and four
ounces is all you will need, no matter
how much dandruff you have. This
simple remedy never fails.

O TO SHAVE.

Safety razors have been but a mixed
blessing: they have made men forget
how to shave. Apart from that. even
a safety razor eau only be used in
one way if the best results are to he
obtained.
Whichever kind of razor you use.
you should be careful always to shave
with the run of the beard. Never
shave against the grain: ii is bad for
the skin. the beard and the razor.
A safety razor should be pressed
Fat against the face. and the action
of Il scythe should be initiated. That
is To say. instead of running the razor
straight down the face. use a semi
circular motion.
Perhaps the most important part Of
a shave Is the lathering. The more
the beard is lathered the softer it will
become. II is false economy to scamp
this part Of the performance in order
to ave time or trouble.
An ordinary razor should always be
stropped before and after use. and the
soap should be thoroughly taken off
it by hot water. 4 razor is all the
better for q rest occasional,y.
Learn how to use a strop property.
The razor strop should hang from Il
point not higher than the waist-line.
Shaving. and the care of Il razor is
3 science. and the man who can keep
his razors in good condition is q man
to be erried. especially in the winter.

At last we are set down In the
midst of Damascus. a city that can
claim life without n break from it's
founding back in the dim dawn OF
the worlds history. When Abram
crossed the desert from Haran 1000
years ago this city was standing. (See
Gen. 14:15 and 15:2.) She dates back
to the time Of the Pharaohs In Egypt:
in fact. she was old when Greece and
Rome yer striplings in years. Rome
may be termed the Eternal City,"
but Damascus is twice as old, and
though her streets have run red with
blood of battle and rapine many
times, she has not been overthrown.
babylon Is an heap in the desert
and Tyre a ruin on the Shore" but
Damascus remains.
Was there ever such a place to see
the nations of the earth parading to-
gether? Here i'll the market place are
motley crowds of Persians, Moors,
Afghans. Indians. Egyptians. Sudan
csc. Jews. Bedouins. Druses, Turks.
Europeans. The strcets-so crooked,
SO narrow. so dirty. 30 full of life,
with that strange spell OF the desert
upon them! The residences as seen
from the street are ugly and disap-
pointing enough, yet. like old barns
and tumbls.dowu mills 1t home, are
fascinating and picturseque.-Chris-

Remarkable Growth of Imports
Shown; Farm Products Situation
Appears Startling in Figures

The department Of has
just issued a statement of exports and
imports for tho month of December,
1919. The tariff hill did not go into
effect until October. 1918, and on
some articles the new rates did not
go into effect until Dec. 1. 1915, hence
tho imports for December, 1918, are
all under the new tariff law. The
publication makes Il comparison be-
tween December 1919 and December
1913 and from this comparison the
enclosed table is taken.
In this table only such articles as
are produced on the farm are mem
toned. and the imports Of those ar
ticles for December 1913 as compared
with December 1919 shows an enor-
nous increase of over 800 per cent
in totals. The farmers of North Da-
kota who raise cattle. horses, sheep,
oats, flaxseed. butter and potatoes are
the ones most violently affected. For
instance, oats With about 5000 thou
sand bushels imported in December,
1912, and over $500, 900 bushels inn
ported in December. 1913. shows the
effect of the low tariff on this product.

TulsToy MAN OF, WONDER.
Marvellous Contradictions in til
Makeup of RusSia's Writer.

Tolstoy's biography illustrates bet
ter Than any other the distractinR
contrasts of the typical Russian no.
bleman and intellectual. He saw
from the inside every soldiers camp
and in the courts of royalty. In h
drawing rooms of fashion and in the
haunts of Bohemia. He lived the
savage life in the Caucasus, and the
patriarchal life at Yasnaya Polyana.
A mar of uncomfortable passions. he
committed every sin that it was fash
ionable for a man of his caste to
commit. He gambled away his an
cestral home. he Joined the revels of
his fellow officers and wasted his sub
stance in h company of gypsy girls.
Yet from an early age he aspired to
sanctity. Although professionally a
soldier. he early became an apostle
of peace. A literary lion in the cir
cles of Moscow. he became the ex-
ponent of the simple life. An aristo-
crat to his finger tbs. hep preached
the gosple of democracy. A big land
owner. he ended by being an advo-
cate of the ideas of Henry George.
a Christian ascetic and a woman
hater. yet his wife bore him sixteen
children.
