SLANDERoUs INToLERENcE.

SLANDERoUs INTOLERANCE.
A reverand gentleman from
Twin Falls at a recent con-
vention of his church I'M
doubtedly for mercenary mot
ives raised a wild TRADE n bout
Mormon menace, 1t was done
IN an Eastern city where the
people could not get first
hand information regarding
Mormons and Mormonism.
his pastor had the oppor-
tunity and undoubtedly as a
man Of common information
was telling base SANDERS of a
peaceful and la abiding peo-
pie, when he knew differently
1T has always been a mystery
to us that the opponents of
Christianity are the most H.
liberal and intolerant towards
all who choose to differ in
mode of belief in the Gospel.
We believe in the square deal.
We choose to think the rever-
and gentleman was soliciting
more funds. a greater salary
for his so-called missionary
work amongst the benighted
Mormons in Idaho. The real
menace of Mormonism to this
gentleman Is that some time
the philanthropists and spin.
sters of New England may
become really acquainted with
our condition and with Nor
mons and Mormonism, and
then the "Missioners" and
other parasites will have no
host to feed and fatten on.

Washing Won't Rid
Head of Dandruff

The only sure way to get rid of dan
druff is to dissolve it, then you de-
stroy it entirely. To do this. get about
four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon;
apply it at night when retiring; use
enough TO moisten the scalp and rub
it in gently with the finger tips.
Do this tonight. and by morning,
most if not all, of your dandruff will
be gone, and three or four more ap-
plications will completely dissolve
and entirely destroy every single sign
and trace of it, no matter how much
dandruff YOU may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy. lus-
trous, glossy, silky and soft and look
and feel a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive and
never fails to do the work.-Adv.
