The secret of keeping young is to
feel young-to do this you must watch
your liver and bowels-there's no need
of having a sallow complexion dark

bowels and liver.

in Ohio, perfected a vegetable COM
pound mixed with olive oil to act on
the liver and bowels, which he gave to
his patients for years.
DIR. Edwards Olive Tablets, the sub

day, In the great heart of the masses
of the German people. Inspired and
moved by the spirit of Luther, Twin

"The native born American citizens
of German ancestry stand upon no

liberty and self government, and a
German speaking nation which har-

"* The two essential in

melting pot of American civilization,
as early Pennsylvania has sometimes
been called, from which poured forth
the steady stream of migration south

A Sure Way to
End 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
dissolve 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, CLOS
sy, silky and soft, and look and feel a
hundred times better--Advertise
