$500. OF this amount s1O,3o6.47 rep
resented the full satisfaction of the
principal and interest of the bank
claim against Dilenbeck. The rest
$292.43, was the court costs.
The satisfaction of the judgment
was so unexpected that even Dllen-
beck's local lawyers were not aware
that the money was to be paid until
lust before it was turned over TO the
clerk.
Father Settles Sons Case.
The case was tried only week be-
fore last, and ended when Judge WI

and directed a verdict for the bank
Steps were taken at once by Dllen-

The Easiest Way
To End Dandruf

There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that is to dissolve it. This destroys
it entirely To do this, just get about
four ounces Of plain. ordinary LIQUID
arvon; apply it at night when retiring:
nse enough to moisten the scalp and
rub 1t in gently with the finger tips.
BY morning most, If not all, OF your
dandruff will be gone, and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace Of it, no matter now
much dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching and
digging of the scalp will stop instantly
and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous,
glossy. silky and soft and look and feel
a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any drug
store. It is inexpensive, and four
ounces Is all you will need. This simple
remedy has never been known to fail
