Among our officials there are some
honorable exceptions-some men who
feel that they are in Office to serve
the people.
But there are Others-and their

that the only thing the average citizen
Is good for Is to vote.
Party allegiance is forgotten when
they are sworn in and the Jobs go

Every motor truck installed by a

1T costs the producer A cents to
haul 100 pounds Of wool from the

could haul the same load for 10 cents.
This Is an unnecessary waste Of "a

1T costs cents to haul 100 pounds
Of potatoes from farm to shipping

AS a special attraction at the Best

booked the World Film five-part fea
ture, "The Almighty Dollar" in which
F'rances Nelson, e. K. Lincoln and
June Elvidge are co-starred a"c

the younger gay, carefree Maisie.
Unused to the ways of the world,
Maisie soon falls under the spell Of

believes his protestations of love, and
despite Mans advice meets him
clandestinely at doubtful places. John

sociates. He rescues Maisie from a
terrific subway accident when she was
on her way to fill dinner engage,
ment at DR.. Thornton's apartment,

begun quickly develops. After short
while Harwood declares his love and

HAUBER THEATRE.

Today-"The Triumph of Truth" is
a drama of the sea, with Cleo Madison
and Vhomas Chatterton. The sea has
mystery all it's own. That the sea
will hold its secret is so proverbial
that it is no wonder Harvey Gates
gave it one more mystery, although
but temporary one. In the atmos-
iphere of waves breaking over rock
bound coasts he has laid plot Of
unusual interest. 1t is built about the
fact that girl is saved from watery
grave, but does not recover consci-
BUSINESS soon enough to discover the
name of her real hero. Thus another
has the opportunity Of lying to her
and saying that he is the man to
whom she is indebted. In this way he
hopes to gain her affection. The plan
fails only because the other man re-
turns and the truth comes out. The
part of an orphan who is mistreated

day for sixteen weeks run. Never
before has there been such plot
conceived and never before has there
been such master writer as Albert
Payson Terhune to put the plot into
pictures This serial is making
tremendous success all over the Unit
ed States. Everyone is enthusiastic
about it. Just imagine how the plot
started off. All the great city Of
New York is in an uproar-in state
of mind bordering on panic. Promi
nent men in all walks of life have been
found murdered by an unknown as
sassin. Who will be the next to feel
the assailant's big powerful hands
close upon his throat? But-there is
one man who knows all-and he dares
not tell. Doctor Montrose, one of the
leading physicians of the city and
great scientists, knows all, but to tell
would expose how he worked for
years to compound mixture which
would produce kind of super-man,
and would quicken the intelligence Of
man-but his first patients turned out
to be master criminals with mania
for murder. Maurice Costello plays
the part Of the young newspaper re-
porter who is trying to unravel the
mystery. Ethel Grandin is his sweet
heart, and the daughter of Doctor
Montrose. Olga Oloniva and Eugene
Strong are the two chief criminals who
cause all the CONSERVATION. The
gowns worn by the women in this Sc
rial are from five to twelve weeks
ahead of prevailing styles.

The Easiest Way
To End Dandruff

There is one sure way that never fails
to remove dandruf completely and that
is to dissolve it. This destroys it en-
tirely. To do this, just get about four
ounces of plain, ordinary liquid arvon;
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
dandruf you may have.
You will find, too, that 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
a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any drug
store. It is inexpensive, and four
ounces is all you will need. This simple
remedy has never been known to fail
