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 de-
stroy it entirely. To do this, get
about four ounces of ordinary liquid
arvon; apply it at night when retir-
ing; 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 ap-
plications will completely dissolve
and entirely destroy, every single sign
and trace of it, no matter how much
dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all 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 fall out, but it makes il
stringy, straggly, dull, dry, brittle
and lifeless, and everyone notices it,
You can get liquid arvon at any drug
store. It is inexpensive and never
fails to do the work.

ANTWERP. Sept. 20 (by mail to
New York; "A contributor to the
Antwerp Socialist paper De Volks-
gazet who is a soldier with the Bel
gian army in the field, writes the
following remarkable story:
Last Thursday we succeeded in
making 13 German Uhlans prisoners
of war. / was one of these ordered
to guard them and to escort them
from the theatre of battle. First we
did not speak to our captured enc
mics. They, too, were little inclined
to talk AS l could understand and
speak German, I was ordered to ad-
dress the commands to the prisoners.
One, a smartly built fellow, not too
big, but broad shouldered, of manly
and proud bearing, began to whisper
all sorts of questions to me. He
asked me where we we're, what would
happen to them, and whether the
Belgian population we're infuriated
against the Germans.
At first / did not enter into any
parley with the talkative Uhlan. Be
fore answering any of his questions

came, and what had been his business
in his own country. Imagine my
amazement when he told me that he
had been a paid official Of a trade
union in one OF the largest towns ir

with a leading comrade IN the labor

Grand Stand Boxes

The Arizona State Fair will. as usual. sell the grand stand boxes some thirty or more days before the opening of the Fair. For the last two years the de- mand has been greater than the supply. Last year there were some forty or fifty more on the waiting list after all the boxes were sold.
 There are. at the present time, one hundred and sixty two boxes in the big grand stand at the State Fair grounds. forty having been added this year. Never theless the supply will not be equal to the demand. Already. letters and checks have been sent to the State Fair office, asking for reservations, and there is no doubt but that the rush wIIl come just as soon as it is generally known that appli- cations will be received.
 Applications will be received on and after September 14th, and the drawings for location will be made on Monday, Oct ober 9th.
 The method of procedure is as follows: People must send in their application for box with their check for $25.OO, and no more checks will be received than there are boxes. This pro- vision is made so that at the drawing everyone who is per mitted to draw will receive a box, and the drawing is not really for a box at all, but for the location.
 As a matter of fact. there is not a poor box in the grand stand. Every box affords a beautiful view of the track, and the magnificent stretch to the wire.
 Checks will be received until, and including, Saturday, Oct ober 3rd, but those who want boxes should send their checks ih with application, by the first mail, orthey may be tco late.

 The Northern Hotel Company, of Los Angeles, wants some new and original ideas inadvertising their new fireproof hotel: some thing that will attract the public eye, and yet get away from the sameuess now used by so many houses.
 A few days ago the manage 'ment was talking this matter over with an old Experienced advertising man who suggested that we ask the readers of the NEWS to suggest some new ideas in. the line of advertising, using either reading notices, catch lines, or designs to be used in advertising the Hotel Northern. The management concluded to do so and to give preference to the ladies submitting their ideas, and also to give a premium of thirty dollars in yellow gold, for the best ideas, divided into three purses; first, fifteen dollars; second, ten dollars, and third, five dollars. The awards to be made by committee consisting of the advertising managers of three country newspapers and two city newspapers. Names of participants and winners will be published. and the contest closed the fifteenth of November.
