INTERVENTION IN MEXICO
Nora Gillispie

Intervention in Mexico means an
added load TO an already over5ur-
Gened populace, both in Mexico and
the United States. The people of Mex
leo, with the best constitution in the
world, and country of unlimited
wealth. are now in the throes Of civil
war, partly on account Of foreign eX-
plitation aud partly on account oNt
home talent, draining the last ounce
Of endurance from them. The Pear
son Syndicate of England, own most
Of the oil land, which our own dearly
beloved John D., thinks he ought to
have. Mr.. Hearst also owns few
million acres with few thousand
rairs of slaves who are fighting am
cnp themselves instead of co-operat-
ing to throw the incubus off their
backs. The workers in the United
States are in the same fix. They are
50 dissatisfied that the only relief the
owning class can see is to sic them on
each other, and by the cry Of wolf
set them at each others throats, ano
thereby make exploitation safe a. lit
tie longer.
The idea Of an insult to the flag is
pitiable subterfuge. A flag that cal

Automobile Accident.

Saturday afternoon while Wayne
Davis. an employee of the B. & M.
freight office, was on his way to Derby
Line on his motorcycle. he met
with an accident, which may result in
the loss of his foot. Davis was run
ming on the right hand side of the road
when he met an automobile which was
on the same side of the road. Think
ing that the driver would turn out, he
kept his course, but the driver of the
automobile failed to turn out. Mr..
Davis was as far as possible on the
side of the road and was sidewiped by
the passing car, throwing him and the
motor cycle into the ditch. Just here
reports differ as to whether the auto.
mobile stopped but Davis had the
number and upon investigation it was
found to be listed in the name of one
Stone from Lyndonville. Davis was
picked up by an auto from Island POND
and brought here 1t was found that
his leg was broken just below the
knee and bad fracture of the ankle.
| He was taken to the hospital at St.
Johnsbury for treatment.

THE EASIEST WAY
TO END DANDRUFF
Stop Falling Hair and Itching
Scalp.

There is one sure way that never fails
TO remove dandruff completely, and that
is to dissolve it This destroys it en-
tirely. To do this, just get about four
ounces OF plain. ordinary liquid arvon;
apply 1t at night when retiring: use
enough to moisten the scalp and rub it
in gently with the finger tips.
By morning most, If not all. OF your
dandruH Will be gone. and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve and entirely destroy. every single
sign and trace OF 1t. no Matter how
much dandruff you may have.
You will fnd, too. that all itching and
digging of the scalp will stop instantly,
and your hair Will be tiuffy. lustrous.
glossy, silky. and soft. and look and feel
hundred times better.
II you want to keep your hair looking
rlch. do by all means get rid of dan
drum. for nothing destroys the hair so
quickly. II not only staryes the hair
and makes II fall out, but II makes il
stringy. straggly. dull. dry. brittle, and
llfeiess, and everybody notices il. You
can get liquid arvon at any drug store.
IT Is inexpensive, and four ounces is
all YOU viii need. This simple remedy
has never been known to fail.-Advt
