Dandruf Surely
Destroys the Hair

Girls-if you want plenty of thick
beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do by all
means get rid of dandruff, for it will
starve your hair and ruin it if you
don't.
1t doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out. The only sure
way to get rid of dandruff is to dis
solve it, then you destroy 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.
By morning, most If not all, of your
dandruff will be gone. and three or
four more applications will complete
ly dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of It,
You will find, too. that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop, and
your hair will look and feel a hun
dred times better. You can get liquid
arvon at any drug store. 1t is inexpen-
sive and four ounces Is all you will
need, no matter how much dandruff
YOU have. This simple remedy never
fails.-Advertisemen

ago he visited some of the chief COM
plainants with George Cobaugh, his
efficiency man, and tested out some
of the spigots.
The changes on Oak Knob have
been contemplated for some months,
lack of funds only preventing the
start of the project. With the clear
ing off of the water debt the financial
obstacle to the proposed changes is
removed.
In addition to insuring better and
much needed pressure for the higher
sections of the city, the larger reser-
voir will protect generally the entire
city's water supply because the facili-
ties for circulation will be vastly i'm
proved.
To Supply Whole Hill
We'll be able, with a new reser-
voir on Oak Knob, not only to serve
the people in the Thirteenth ward
and other high points more adequately
but to supply the entire HILL" said
Commissioner Bowman. Further
more, our service generally will be
vastly improved. AS the situation is
to-day, our water supply would be

will again return there in a short
time. Contract for the first section of
the railroad has already been award
cd and work Is now under way.
This first spur will run between
Santa Cruz, in the shadow of Moro
Castle, to Jibico and Cnasi distance
of about 80 miles. The cost of this op-
grafton will be approximately $780,
900.
AT Cnasi there is located large
sugar mill recently purchased by Mr..
Hershey and it is the plan to con-
struct the first line to this sugar mill
SO that the annual output of the mill,
some $4,000 bags of sugar, each weigh
Ing $50 pounds, may be transported to
tidewater at lower cost.
Just as soon as this first spur is
completed work will be started on the
remainder of the line which will con-
meet the towns of Minas, Florida, Jib-
leo, Cnasi, Corral Nuevo and Matan-
zas
While this railroad is being con-
structed Mr.. Hershey plans to have
| built another larger sugar mill be-
tween Jibico and Santa Cruz. This
new mill will have an initial capacity
of 100000 bags of sugar each season
ana provision VIII De made Tor IN
creasing this capacity to 10000 bags
If needed. The mill will cost about
$1,00O,000.
The expenditure necessary to COM
plete the entire Cuban project will
approximate nearly S5,000,000 over a
period of a number of years.
Hershey Cuban Railroad
Besides the big railroad, which, by
the way. will be called the Hershey
Cuban railway, Mr.. Hershey owns quite
sugar plantation in Cuba. In fact 1t
is several plantations for near Cnasi
he Is the proprietor of some 1000
acres of fine sugar and and up near
Santa Cruz he owns another 1000
acres-a total of about 10000 acres.
Construction of this new railroad
and big sugar mill as such huge ex-
penditure, associates of Mr.. Hershey
declare, is in pursuance of the Her.
shey idea This is taken to mean that
the genius of Chocolate Town has a
vision for the future.
The big chocolate plant now uses
about $4,000 bags of sugar every year.
The present mill at Cnasi Is capable of
supplying this amount. Yet the pro-
posed mill will within a year or two
be turning out an additional 100, 900

of the big mains would occur and
there should be trouble of some kind
at the pumping station which would
prevent pumping the water directly

"The chances for such trouble
simultaneously are remote, of course,

doubt If under such conditions, Har-
rlsburgs water supply in the present
reservoir would last more than three
days. What we should have is a re-
serve supply and this is what a new
high service reservoir would provide.
Present Reservoir Holds $1,000 900
Our present old reservoir has q
capacity of 27,000,000 gallons, but
that was built twenty-five or thirty
years ago. The city has grown won
derfully in that time and the water

why not? To my mind, the pres
ent high service station should have
been larger originally. But there is
plenty of room up there"
For Closed Top?
What about the type of construc-
ton? Would the new reservoir be
closed as is the present one?"
THE new one should be constructed
of concrete and as for the type, 1
don't know but what the present sys-
tenn of a closed top could we'll be fol-
lowed. The theory is. of course that
the waters best purifier is the combi-
nation of air and sunlight and while
this is true, in some places the covered
reservoir has been found to be equally
satisfactory Our tests of water from
the high service station are better
really, than the samples taken from
the old one. However, I'm collecting
data now on the subject and will be
able to go into the problem pretty
thoroughly as soon as 1 can get to-

only the Thirteenth ward and other

not obtain the proper pressure by the
old method. The increasing service
naturally has decreased the pressure.
