A Simple Way To
Remove Dandruff

There is one sure way that has never
failed to remove dandruff at once, and
that is to dissolve it, then you destroy
it entirely. To do this, just get about
four ounces of plain, common liquid
arvon from any drug store (this is all
you will need), apply it at night when
retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp
and rub it 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 how much
dandruff you may have
You will find 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 hundred
times better.

FEAR OF SWEEPING CHOLERA
EPIDEMIC IN FRANCE ALLAYED
Conditions on Battle Front Offer No
Grave Menace, Says Report.
PARIS, July {

PARIS, July o.
Fear that heaps OF decaylng human
bodies along the battle front would provo
the source of cholera epidemic that
would sweep all France was allayed to-
day by an official report from the par
llamentary Committee on Hygiene.
Doctor Pottevin, chairman Of the COM
mittee, began the investigation to learn
the truth of statements that the decom-
position of thousands of cadavors I'm the
trench country threatened serious conse-
quences. For several weeks reports have
reached Paris that the cholera epidemic
in Austria had its origin in the slaughter
in the Carpathans, and that other war
ring countries were fighting epldemics
developed from putrefactlon The COM
mittee's report made public today de-
clared these assertions to be unfounded
From leading medical men, the com
mlttee has found that decomposition of
bodies at the front offers no grave mem
ace" said Doctor Pottevin. Not only
is 1t out of the uestion that a cholera
plague could arise from such condition,
but the sanitary conditions surrounding
the French army would not permit an
epidemic to take hold. We have taken
every precaution to prevent cholera from
reaching France from other countries"

VIENNA REPORTS ITALIANS
REPULSED AT GORIZIA

VIENNA, July 9.-Infantry attacks fol.

launched by the Italians all along the
front in Gorizia, but these were repulsed
by the Austrians, 1t was officially an
nounced today. At Redlpulia 25O italian
corpses were counted in front of the
Austrian trenches.
The text of the official report follows:
In the latest fighting in Gorilla the
enemy commenced the actions with over
whelming artillery bombardments on July
8, following up with infantry attacks. All
these attacks were repulsed. A strong
attack against the bridgehead at Luni-

MEANING OF MOVES
IN ToDAY'S WAR NEWS

All doubt as to the intention OF
the Germans for a great offensive
In the West, including a new drive
on Calais and the expulsion OF the
French from Alsace, is now re-
moved. The movement of 1000
military trains from the eastern
front can have but one meaning
another attempt TO inhict serious
blow on the French and English,
The Allies are conscious of this
fact and stand ready TO meet the
new sweep of the Teutons.
The definite check of the Austro-
German invasion of South Poland
by the Russians and the offensive
resumed by the Slavs in southeast
ern Galicia give indications of the
complete failure of the third Teu-
ton attempt to capture Warsaw
and a resumption of a new Russian
invasion of Galicia in the near
future. The tone and admissions
of Berlin and Vienna dispatches
on the situation in the East are
highly significant in this regard.
The Italians operating along the
Isonzo are meeting with an in
creasing resistance from the Aus
trians. Even should they capture
Gorizia, the fall of which is inn
minent, it is clear that as far as
the immediate future is concerned
the opposition of the enemy will
be stubborn and will entail much
sacrifice Of life.
