HOWARD THROWS
BOLT IN MACHINE
Lieutenant Governor Forces
Senate Secretary to Read
Bill in Full.
VALIDITY OF ALL AFFECTED

Lincoln, April l7.-(Special.)-
Lieutenant Governor Howard today
IN the senate in announcing he was
about to sign House Roll, No 425, the
bill for the reorganization OF the Ma
tional Guard along the lines laid down
III the federal law, announced House
Roll No +23 having been read in part
on three separate days" etc, etc.
Immediately the question was raised
that the announcement OF the gov
ernor that the bill had been read Gin
part" was directly against the provi
SONS of the constitution, which says
that the bill should be read "at large
on three separate days and would,
therefore, make its passage unconsti-
tutional.
The constitution says all bills shall
be read at large on three separate
days in each house; this has never
been done and many times when bill
has been thoroughly discussed in
committee OF the whole and it is bill
which covers many pages it has been
customary for the reading clerk to
skip the unlmportant parts and get
through with it as soon as possible.
This is the first time that a presiding
officer has refused to follow out the
custom and insist that the bill in
order to be signed must be read in
full
The result of the action of the lieu-
tenant governor was to cause recon-
sideration of the vote to be taken and
the clerk then proceeded to read the
ILL "at large 1t contained twelve
pages.
The bill had already passed by prac-
tlcally unanimous vote and at the
conclusion of the reading was again
passed by unanimous vote.
The question now arises whether
the lieutenant governor can sign the
bill. the same objection which he had
on it on third reading being applica-
Bile to the bill on the other two read
ings.
According to the lieutenant gov
crnor's ruling OH this bill, not a bill
has beeen passed by the Nebraska
legislature legally for twenty-five
years at least.

Combing Won't Rid
Hair of Dandruff

The only sure way to get rid OF
dandruff is to dissolve 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 fps.
Do this tonight, and by morninek
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,
lustrous. glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive and
never fails to do the work-Adv.
