1t doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash II out. The only sure
way to get rid Of dandruff is to dissolve
1t, then you destroy il 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 1t in gently with the
finger tips.

more applications will completely dis

hair will be silky, fluffy. lustrous, soft
and look and feel a hundred times bet

Honest, Clean Humor Makes
Same Appeal as of Old
Without Changing a Line.

From the year of grace 1854. practi-
cally every person who has had access
to the dramatic column of news
paper has utilized the privilege to put
in type an opinion as to the merits of
The Mikado." These opinions would
stretch pretty nearly all the way around
the world il laid out end TO end, or
reach part of the distance to the moon
if piled one on the other.
But the last word will not be uttered
regarding Gilbert e Sullivan produc-
tions until that final cataclysm The
reason being that in tho preparation
OF their stock for the trade, Mr.. Gilbert
and Mr.. Sullivan worked out a we'll
known scientific theory. There are GER
tain phrases and some chords that
produce a laugh or a thrill, no matter
what the language or the age. And
the comp;iers of THE Mikado." Pima
fore" "Iolanthe,' THE Pirates of Pen

Not Line Changed.
Manager William A, Bradv has recor-
nized this in discarding the word re

1t first must be dead. And there never
has been a time in the last thirty-fiye
years when Gilbert and Sullivan

been time when 1t was not thorough
ly up-to-date without the addition of
single line or a single bit of busi-

Many Witnesses Testify on Both

This marked the close of the IA

sion in the circuit court for the past
week. After one Of the hardest and
closest legal battles that has ever
been waged in local court, jury Of
twelve of their peers decided that
George owen and Mike Robinson
were not guilty of the murder of Bob
Braden, on the night VI August H.,
1918. The case was finished Satur-
day afternoon, the charge was given
the jury by Judge Turner, and the
members deliberated over the verdict
until this morning. Promptly at the
stroke of 9, the clerk polled the jury,
and upon inquiry of the judge all an
swered that they had not found the
defendants guilty of the charge.
Speculation had been rife ever
since Saturday afternooA as to the
outcome of the trial. There had been
rumors all day Sunday that a decision
had been reached, but they varied in
their substance all the way from &C
