Old Doc Wind

Old Doc Wind has whispering voice.
He has secrets he says he'll tell.
He declares that he'll make our hearts
rejoice
Keep our bodies clean and we'll
He has never a powder and never pill,
But our minds are disturbed with doubt,
For, say what you will,
He gives you chill.
So, old Doc Wind keep outi
Did Doc Wind has voice like snore,
And they tell me his nose is blue.
When we won't let him in at the big front
door
He tries to get in at the f1ue.
There is never a doctor who's quite so
bold
OF his virtues for hours he'll spout
But the bards have told
That his heart is cold.
So, old Doc Wind, keep out!
Old Doc Winds on the outside, but
He says it's shame and sin
To have all the doors and windows shut
When he desires to get in.
But he whistles a tune at the front and
the back
OF the house. and his heart is stout,
And he says, Good lack,
/ can get through a crack,
And they can't keep Doc Wind out!'

THINGS | REMEMBER"
Frederick Townsend Martin Wrote
Candid Criticisms of Notables.


The late Frederick Townsend Martin,
spoken of by many as the leader of
society in New York and the successor
of Ward McAllister, published in Oc-
tober, 1913, "tSnings l Remember" a
book showing the personal side of in
ternational society life. In this he told
of well known leaders of the social
world and drew upon the recollections
of some twoscore years for stories
about society leaders both in America
and Europe. King Edward. three
popes, General Grant and others found
a place in this volume of memoirs,
which was considered a rather frank
revelation.
Mr.. Martin, who was sixty-four years
old, never married. He was a student
of labor questions and friend of the
needy. He frequently visited the Bow
cry mission, in New York, and gave
talks there to the human derelicts, and
on many occasions these men were his
guests at dinners specially provided.

The income tax law promises to live
up to the expectations of the admins

WASHING WON'T RID
HEAD OF DANDRUFF
Dissolve 1t, That's Best Way.

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
arvon; apply it at night when retiring;
use enough to moisten the scalp and
rub it in gently with the finger tips.
Do this tonight, and by morning
most if not all of your dandruff will be
gone, and three or four more applica-
tions will completely dissolve and en-
tirely destroy every single sign and
trace of it, no matter how much dan
druff you may have.
You will find, too, that al Itching
and digging of the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy, lus-
trous, glossy. silky and soft, and look
and feel a hundred times better
If you want to preserve your hair,
do by all means get rid of dandruff,
for nothing destroys the hair more
quickly. 1t not only starves the hair
and makes it fal lout, but it makes it
stringy, straggly, dull, dry brittle and
lifeless, and everyone notices it. You
can get liquid arvon at any drug store
1t is inexpensive and never fails to do
the work.
