The Curse of Mexico

Xochitl, the beautiful Indian maiden
of 900 years ago, is responsible for the
Mexican national drink, pulque, pro-
nounced poolkay. She was the first TO
drink the sweet liquid from the ma
guey plant, cousin of the aloe, that
blooms once in 100 years. The drink in
its fresh state is quite harmless, but
the modern Mexicans have debased ID
by fermentation, and it has now be-
come the curse of Mexico. 1t appears
to have much the same effect as some
other national drinks, for it softens the
brains, ruins the digestion and para
lyzes the nerves. So disastrous a hold
has pulque upon the poorer classes that
employers of labor avoid workers from
the maguey fields if they can get labor
elsewlhere.-Pittsburgh Chronicle-Tele-

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 win 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.-Adv.
