Dandruffy Heads
Become Hairless

If you want plenty of thick, beauti-
full, 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 1t, then you destroy it entirely. To
do this, get about four ounces OF or
binary liquid arvon; apply 1t at night
when retiring; use enough to moisten
the scalp and rub it gently with the
finger tips
BY morning, most If not all, OF your
dandruh will be gone, and three or
four more applications win completely
dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of it.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp viii stop, and
your hair will look and feel a hundred
times better You can get liquid arvon
at any drug store. II is inexpensive
and four ounces is all you will need, no
matter how much dandrun you have.
This simple remedy never fails

GRONEN
GETS His
MAD UP

Declaring that hand picked
special committee of the CONNER
cial club had emphatically turned
down the idea of obtaining addi-
tional power for the city's munich
pal system, Commissioner Gronen
said Friday that he would appear
next week before the membership
of the club, and lay the city's case
before it.
I've heard of hand-picked
iuries, but / had my first taste of
it last night" said Gronen.
1.-THE members were almost
unanimously opposed to munich
pal ownership, and most of them
were more friendly with the r. r.
& p. Co. than with the city. You
can imagine the reception that |
received.
The special committee was APP
pointed some time ago to investi-
gate Gronen's statement that in
creasing business for the power
plant would necessitate shortly
the construction of an additional
power supply.
Bean a Member!
Among the members were Louis
Bean, manager of the T. r. & p.
Co.; Chester Thorne, John T.
Bib, w. II. Raleigh, Paul Savidge
and George II. Stone.
II laid all my data before the
committee said Gronen. Il
showed Just how fast the city's
business had increased, just how
much additional business was in
sight at the present time, and just
how soon our present plant would
become inadequate.
1.-THE committee argued against
every statement that | made. II
was plainly opposed to municipal
ownership, and the members very
emphatically declared that the city
power plant had no right to COM
pete in the power field.
"Mr. Stone was reasonable, and
offered no objections to my state
ments. Savidge and Raleigh have
both been engaged in city work
and realized the truth of my state.
