Washing Won't Rid
Head Of Dandruff

The only sure way to get rid OF dand-
ruff 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 tips.
Do this tonight, and by morning most
if not all of your dandruff will be gone,
and three or four more applications will
completely dissolve and entirely destroy,
every single sign and trace OF 1t, no mat
ter how much dandruf 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. lus.rous.
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 tails
to do the work.

HE JUST LOOKS GRAND

The wind was whirling around the
corners, and the cold pierced the
heaviest OF clothing, yet they seemed
all unmindful OF the cold that must
have thrust icy fingers beneath the
worn old cloak and cape of the two
women, somebody's mothers, VINO
stood on the corner waiting for the
parade to pass that point last night.
They were as eager as children watch
ing for the circus parade, and the
whining OF an automobile which pro
ceeded the entire parade, sent them
out to the curbing away from the
shelter of the building. only to turn
them back again, disappointed.
But as the red glare Of the fire
works lighted up the windows Of the
buildings along the street, they surged
forward into the street. One of the
women was caring for tiny fodder
who was frightened at the fire and
noise and was treasured by her SER

child, treasured, whimpered an as
sent and the parade was already
passing.
There they come" was the murmur
from the crowd down the street, and
1t echoed in the hearts of those two
women Drawing the cold in their
flimsy garments that there he
comes" And sure enough there they
were in olive drab uniforms, all spick
and span and soldierly. But cluster

mothers who were jealousy awaiting

The Tragedy.
"Thee Bud" lisped the fodder,
"thee Bud" And three pairs or eyes
were strained into the circle OF light
from the red powder and white way
lights. And then the soldiers had
passed. And the tragedy was over.
They had failed to see Bud. With a
little catch in their breath, they as
sured each other that Bud was there.
I'm sure I seen him over there" and
then turned and were caught in the
tide Of the crowd, and fastened up the
street behind the parade.
1t was when they halted at Seventh
street that the load was lifted and
mother love rewarded. They pushed
their way through the crowd, these
women in clothing that hardly kept
the icy fingers of winter from chill
ing them through-and there he was!
AS the boys turned Seventh street,
they smiled into each others eyes.
And those who happened to be stand
ing near heard them say:
Don't he look just grand"

THRIFT DURING WAR
URGED UPON WOMEN
Food and Clothing Economy Will Help
Nation. Houston Says.

Every woman can render important
service TO the nation in it's present emer-
gsney." according TO the Secretary OF
Agriculture, In a statement issued yes
terday. "She need not leave her home to
help the armed forces. She can help TO
feed and ciothe our armies and help TO
supply food to those beyond the seas
BY praeticing effective thrift in her own
household.
Every ounce of food the housewife
saves from being wasted, all food which
she produces in the garden, every gar
ment which care and skillful repair make
IT unnecessary to replace. all lessen that
households draft on the already insult
ncient world supplies.
Clothing Is largely an agricultural
product and represents the results OF
labor on the sheep ranges. in cotton fields
and IN mills and factories. Whenever a
useful garment Is needlessly discarded
material needed 70 keep some one warm
or dry may be consumed merely to
gratify a passing fancy. Women would
do well to look upon clothing at this
time more particularly from the
utilitarian point OF view.
Leather, too. Is scare and the proper
shoeing OF armies calls for great supplies
Of this material. Anything that can be
done to encourage adults or children to
take care Of their shoes and make them
last longer means that so much more
leather is made available for other pur-
poses
''Demonstrsts thrift In your homes and
encourage thrift among your neighbors.
Make saving rather than spending
your social standard.
Make economy fashionable lest 1t be-
come obligatory"
