WHAT CAUSES COLDS I.

Z This question and Glow to Prevent
Colds" is asked a thousand times
every day. A cold is really fever,
not always caused by the weather but
due to a disordered condition of the
blood or lack Of important food
elements. In changing seasons fat
foods are essential because they dis
tribute heat by enriching the blood
and SO render the body better able
to Withstand the varying elements.
This is the underlying reason why
the medicinal fats in SCOTS Emulsion
quickly overcome colds and build
strength to prevent more serious sick
ness. It contains natures medicinal
fats, so skillfully prepared that the
blood profits from every drop, and it is
free from harmful drugs or alcohol.

There isn't an imagination In Iowa
that won't be stirred by the lyric. 1t

time at the close of short course in
road building at Ames last week.
Only four counties In the state were
not represented. All told there were
1T engineers present at the banquet,
and some state officials, too.
Sweet Adeline" was selected on
which to build the parody because
the engineers recalled that President
Wilson was offended year ago when,
at the army and navy club banquet,

was sung to popular patriotic air.
The engineers don't expect Gov.
George w. Clarke to be angry with
them IL he finds out about their song.
They have made quite record in
the state by seeing to it that con-
tractors and other persons didn't get
more Of a county's money than was
due them.

Dutch Threat is Good Logic.


From the Grand Rapids Herald:
The Anti-Treating league organized in
England by church dignitary Is ex-
pected to exert powerful influence
in promoting temperance among the
troops preparing to go to the front.
The members are pledged to refrain
from buying drinks for any one except
themselves. Apparently there Is no
intention to turn the league into d
total abstinence society, for the cleri-
cal founder suggests that private hos
pitality in the home may continue as
usual. From reports reaching this
country Tommy Atkins evidently was
in danger Of being overcome by too
much kindness on the part of stayat-
home patriots. Everybody wanted to
buy him a drink. AT the public
houses his money was no good. II no

1t doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out. The only sure
way to get rid of dandruff is to dissolve

this, get about four ounces of ordinary
liquid arvon; apply it at night when re-
firing; use enough to n1oisten the scalp
and rub it in gently with the finger tips.
By morning, most if not all, of your
dandruf will be gone, and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace ofsit.
You will find, too, that all itching and
digging Of the scalp will stop. and your
hair will look and feel hundred times
better. You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. It Il inexpensive and four
ounces is all ron win need, no matter
