Dandruff Surely
Destroys The Hair

Girls-if you want plenty of thick,
beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do by ali
means get rid of dandruff, for it viii
starve your hair and ruin it il 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 dissolve
1t, then you destroy it entirely. To do
this. get about four ounces Of ordinary
liquid arvon; apply it at night when re.
turing use enough to moisten the scalo
and rub it in gently with the finger tbs.
By morning, most if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or four
more applications viii completely dis
solve 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 yo,,r
hair will look and feel hundred time
better. You can get liquid arvon at AM,
drug store. 1t is inexpensive and four
ounces is all you will need, no matte
how much dandruff you have. Th;,
simple remedy never fails

Music at the Lecture
Many Added Attractions In Con-
nection With the Sleeve
Valve Lecture at Grand
Il Tomorrow Evening.

Arrangements have been com.
pleted for the motion picture lee
ture on the knight sleeve valve
motor to be given tomorrow night
at the Grand theatre by the Over
land-Irwin Co.
Mr.. Cooper is scheduled to ar.
rive in Keokuk early tomorrow
morning and during the day he
-s.will meet Overland dealers. who
are coming here from various
parts of this territory.
AS an added feature for Wednes-
days entertainment 1t was an
nounced today by Mr.. McLoney
that musical program will be
played by a six piece orchestra,
and a number Of vocal selections
will be rendered by local bari
tone singer.
The lecture itself, according to
= tMcLoney, is calculated to interest
women as we'll as men and the
motion pictures which Mr.. Cooper
is to show are regarded by film
men as being the best of their
kind ever produced.
Imagine yourself standing in
side an automobile motor" says
Mr.. McLoney. Picture yourself
gazing at close range upon the
heretofore mysterious why's and
wherefores of what makes the
wheels go round in that small but
formidable space underneath the
hood of the car you drive. This
is thrill that will be experience
ed by those who attend the lecture.
Tho EnJCht n IF tho
scenes in the films used by Mr..
Cooper has been photographed in
magnified form, the effect being a
giant like appearance on the
screen.
''In this manner every detail in
the construction is brought out
sharply and clearly and the var
ious points of interest are ex-
| planned to the audience in Ian
guage stripped of all technicalities.
| How an automobile engine de-
| velopes power at any given speed
| is graphically illustrated and in
addition to this there are a num-
Der Of other features including a
1 close up view of a girl at the
wheel of a Willys-Knight car and
in which picture is shown the ease
with which a woman may operate
] an automobile. There also are
some clever animated cartoons
/ and birds-eye view in panoramic
form of the largest automobile
factory in the world
Demand for tickets has been
such that Mr.. McLoney fears that
| the ] 900 seats in the Grand thea
| ter will not be sufficient to ac-
commodate the crowd. In every
other city where Mr.. Cooper has
talked similar condition has
been confronted.

Criticism Of Pledges.
by Perry Arnold, United Press Staff
Correspondent
MITCHELL, S. D., Oct. 17.-Speak-
ing before farmer audience of 1000,
Nominee Hughes today analysed N
terms of sharp criticism the demo
cratic platform pledge as to the
tariff and solemniy warned his audi
tors that the present plan of great
appropriations and decreasing Of the
revenue through import duties,
couldn't 60 ON indefinitely as though
there was an irexhaustible supply OF
money"
Hughes produced figures showing
| that in 1913 under the Payne bill,
the total of imports was S1,S13,0OO,000
against $2,197 100000 in 1916 under
the Underwood bill. Notwithstand.
ing this vast increase, he declared
the actual revenue to the govern
ment in duties on these imports was
only $212,O00.00O in 1916, as against
1919 100000 under the republican pro-
tective policy.
AS against these figures Hughes
read the democratic platform en-
dorsement OF the Underwood bill and
the democratic assertion that it
stood for tariff sufficient to provide
for government economically adj
ministered. He denounced the adj
ministration for wasteful extrava-
gance in government. ''The mere
existence Of resources and the mere
existence Of men capable of handling
and developing these resources, are
not sufficient to insure prosperity .
he declared. I'VE must have ade-
Quate government policies for main
tanning the advantages of our mar
kets. We must have protection for
American agricultural industries.
otherwise our plans for departmental
regulation will be mere barren
FORMS"
The audience in this city of about
1000 was mostly of farmers, many
OF whom had travelled long distances
since daylight to hear Hughes ex-
pound his principals. The day was
cold and Hughes shivered frequently
in his breezy ride to the hall.
