that is to dissolve it, then you destroy

four ounces of plain, common liquid ar
Won from any drug store this is all you
will need),l apply it at night when re-
firing; use enough to moisten the scalp
and rub it in gently with the finger tips.
Ny morning. most, if not all Of
your dandruff will be gone, and three
or four more applications will COM
pletely dissolve, and entirely destroy
every single sign and trace of it, no
matter how much dandruff you may
have.
You win find all itching and digging
of the scalp will stop instantly and your
hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky

times better.
If you value your hair, you should get
rid OF dandruff at once, for nothing de-

but it makes it stringy, straggly, dull

Why Keep Ones Temper

ITO keep your temper is rather a
good idea said DR.. Strickland Good
all in IA lecture At the Institute Of
Hygiene. Every time the heart con-
tracts, he said. its force would raise
weight of two pounds to the height
of one foot, and il does this from
seventy 10 l40 times every minute.
Acute heart strain WIS difficult TO
produce in a young. well norlshed
and healthy adult. but it WAS very
easy TO produce if the heart muscle
was anaemic or poisoned, or was the
seat of degenerative disease.
Running to catch train increased
the hearts work by 22s foot pounds
a minute. Ascending q staireas Sc
slowly increased the hearts work by
ll2 foot pounds; ascending quickly
by 1852 foot pounds.
The enormous amount of total ex-
ira work done by the heart was
shown in the experiment of riding a
bicycle up hill. the gradient of which
was one in ten, and the length 2,9o4
feet. The ride occupied three and
one-half minutes and the total extra
work done by the heart was no les:
than one and one-eighth foot tons.
A rest of half an hour daily would
save in a year 1000 foot pound
of work on the heart.
