Sure Way to Get
Rid of Dandruff

There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that is to dissolve it. This de-
stroys it entirely. To do this, just get
about four ounces of plain, ordinary
liquid arvon; apply it at night wnen
retiring; use enough to moisten the
scalp and rub it in gently with the fin
ger tips.
BY morning, most if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications 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 in
stantly, 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. 1t is inexpensive, and four
ounces is all you will need. This SIM
pie remedy has never been known to
fail.-Adv-

A FEW ADVERTISING FACTS

The window decoration in Flag staff during the holidays were the best ever seen here, and few cities would claim more beautiful displays or larger choice of selection. A good window display is first aid" to good advertising and an argument for mak- ing advertising as much part of the business conducted as the buying of goods to please customers. The mer- chant who figures that an advertise ment is merely donation, is a back number in the business world and might just as we'll make room for the live one that is wise to the fact and who will get the business. Even the big companies that formerly in effect told the people, to take it or leave it" have concluded that times have changed and taking the people into their confidence is wise plan.
 When those who have enjoyed a monopoly take that view, you may assured that they have good financial reasons for the change of heart. Rail- roads, telephone, telegraph, express companies and even our astute Uncle Sam spend money now for that valu- able business commodity, though Un- tle Sam spends it on press agents hired by the government and asks the charitable newspapers to do it for nothing, as it is in the interest of the people and incidently political boost for that special department of the ad- ministration. "Cussing out a GUS toner" and "the public be damned" nowadays fail to make a good inn pression on the public. The big men found it out first and the little men are falling in line. You may have a temporary monopoly, small or large but you cant keep it going on that basis for any considerable length of time. A pushing advertiser is bound to win in any legitimate business, even if he must have some one on his staff to handle that important end of the business. When any kind of busi- ness does not grow, it's a dead game it may grow by force of circum- stances for awhile, but few win in a dead heat.
