TRY THIS If YOU
HAVE DANDRUFF

There is one sure way that
never fails to remove dandruff
completely and that is to dissolve
1t. This destroys it entirely. To
do this, just get about four ounces
of plain, ordinary liquid arvon;
apply II at night when retiring;
use enough to moisten the scalp
and rub 1t In gently with the fin
ger tips.
By morning, most, IL not all,
of your dandruff will be gone,
and three or four more applica-
tons 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 itch
ing and digging of the scalp will
stop instantly, and your hair will
be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky
and soft, and look and feel hum
dred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive, and
four ounces is all you will need.
This simple remedy has never
been known to fail. adv.

CHICAGO, Sept. Fl. -
Many prominent Chicago men
and women are breathing
easier today than they have
for some weeks following the
confiscation of card index
case used by the blackmail-
ers, some of whom are sup
posed to be under arrest here.
AT least 20 names were listed
and opposite each one was some
note of misconduct which the
syndicate hoped to use for extor-
tion," said a detective here today
who worked on the case.
"All those listed were of prom
inence financially and socially
here. But the names will not be
given out" he said.
Evidence of the syndicate's OPP
erations continues to pile up here.
A wealthy machinery manufactur-
err is known to have become infat-
uated with a woman in a cafe.
AS the romance waned, the wom-
an told him she was i'll and sug-
gested he send her to the noun
tains and give her 100000.
Wanted $4,000.
II you do not see the Justice
of this, perhaps your wife WILL"
she wrote him in answer to his
objections.
He had the woman Swallowed
in New York and forced her to
sign a statement that she had
lied and absolving him from fur
Their payments.
Another woman hired out as a
stenographer and after several
rounds of cafes and road houses
with her employer, demanded
$4,000.
But she didn't get ii when a
detective exposed her game.
Many Schemes.
In some instances, a victim has
been held prisoner for as long as
10 days. During this time he
would be given every opportunity
to realize what embarrassment
would attend any publicity and
then inevitably, 1t is said, the
victim would offer payment.
The second method was the
badger game" The woman
would meet the victim, lead him
on and at set time, one or more
of her pals would appear on the
scene.
Another development OF this
afternoon was Identification by
Division Chief Offley of New
York of the man arrested in Chi
cago as DOC" Donahue, who has
been the object of search in
New York state.

in the same time.
"Wednesday morning the cap
tain of the ship discharged the
entire crew, because he said that
they were slowing the cargo in
a dangerous manner, and he was
afraid to take his ship to sea
with such a load"
The skipper of the Winkleman
is said to be favorable to the
union cause, but because his en-
ployers are unfair to union labor
in certain other ports, the Taco
ma union longshoremen cannot
handle cargo for the ship.

PUZZLED Hard, Sometimes, to Raise Children.

Children's taste is ofttimes more ac curate, in selecting the right kind of food to fit the body. than that of adults. Nature works more accurately through the children.
 A Brooklyn lady says: Our little boy had long been troubled with weak digestion. We could never persuade him to take more than one taste of any kind of cereal food. He was a weak little chap and we were puzzled to know what to feed him on.
 One lucky day we tried Grape Nuts. Well, you never saw a child eat with such a relish. and it did me good to see him. From that day on it seemed as though we could almost see him grow. He would eat Grape Nuts for breakfast and supper, and think he would have liked the food for dinner.
 "The difference in his appearance is something wonderful.
 My husband had never ,fancied cereal foods of any kind. but he be- came very fond of GrapeNuts and has been much improved in health since using it.
 We are now healthy family and naturally believe in Grape-Nuts.
 "A friend has two children who were formerly afflicted with rickets. was satisfied that the disease was caused by lack of proper nourishment The children showed it. So I urged her to use Grape-Nuts as an expert ment and the result was almost magi- cal.
 They continued the food and today both children are as we'll and strong as any children in this. city. and. of course. my friend is a firm believer in Grape-Nuts for she has the evidence before her eyes every day" Name given by Postum Co.,. Battle Creek, Mich.
 Ever read the above letter? A new one appears from time to time. They are genuine, true and full of human interest. (Adyertisement)

PEEL SISTERS ARE
 ARMSTRONG FEATURE
Orpheum Theatre Packed by Crowd Delighted by Su-
 perior Vaudeville.

Armstrong's Baby Dolls received a cordial reception on their return ap- 7earance at the Orpheum last night, after completing successful run at he Crawford Theatre in Fl Paso. The popular playhouse was packed by a crowd which overtaxed the seating ca pacity of the theatre.
 Armstrong's Company. as a whole presented a much classier show than n it's former appearance in Bisbee. The jokes and comedy skits were much livelier and there was a whole 'ome quality about the entire program which was distinctly pleasing Some new song hits were rendered in a man ?er which was quick to catch on with the big crowd.
 However, the best feature of the Fhow. by all odds, is the work of the three Pfeil sisters who made such a tremendous hit in Fl Paso. These at tractive and extremely talented young girls offer far and away the classiest -audeville offerings staged in Bisbee this season. Singing. dancing and a sew stunts of an acrobatic nature com prised the work of the Pfeil Sisters, ast night, but they have varied pro gram for each performance. The girls were repeatedly called back and not in many months has an Orpheum crowd manifested such spontaneously liberal lpprobation as was accorded the three Pfiel Sisters last night. Summing up he entire Armstrong offering. it may be said that the show is one of the eleanest and brightest now being shown on any stage.
