NOT A PARTICLE
OF DANDRUFF OR
AFALLING HAIR
SAVE YOUR HAIRI DOUBLE ITS
BEAUTY IN JUST A FEW
MOMENTS.
25-cENT "DANDERINE" MAKES
HAIR THICK, GLOSSY, WAVY
AND BEAUTIFUL.

Within ten minutes after an appli-
cation of Danderine you can not find
a single trace of dandruff or falling
hair and your scalp will not itch, but
what will please you most will be
after a few weeks use, when you see
new hair, fine and downy at first
yes-but really new hair-growing
all over the scalp.
Danderine is to the hair what fresh
showers Of rain and sunshine are to
vegetation. It goes right to the roots,
invigorates and strengthens them.
Its exhilarating, stimulating and life
producing properties cause the hair
to grow long, strong and beautiful.
A little Danderine Immediately
doubles the beauty of your hair. No
difference how dull, faded, brittle and
scraggy, Just moisten a cloth with
Danderine and carefully draw it
through the hair, taking one small
strand at a time. The effect is amaz-
ing - your hair will be light, fluffy
and wavy, and have an appearance
of abundance; an Incompatible lus-
tire, softness and luXuFiance.
Get a 25-cent bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine from any drug store or
toilet counter, and prove that your
hair is as pretty and soft as any
that it has been neglected or injured
by careless treatment-that's all
you surely can have beautiful hair
and lots of 1t If you will just try
q little Danderine.-Advt.

BEING FRIGHT"

There is a new shade of the mean
ing Of the word fright" in a sense
in which it is being commonly used
these days.
When you say Hes right" these
days, you mean he is whole-heartedly
with the government.
When a city of a community is
fright, it is patriotic to the core,
and harbors no preachers of sedition,
no selfish and disloyal citizens.
The country is about 95 per cent
fright, now. 1t was not many
weeks ago that this statement could
not have been made. At a rough
guess, IS per cent would have been
nearer the mark.
Fargo, we believe, is a little above
the general average. This city is
getting close to the 100 per cent
right" mark. There is a feeling OF
unity which the city didn't have be-
fore the boys" went. There is an
unselfish spirit coming to the front,
that was dormant two months ago.
Nothing else matters much these
days IL a man is right. II he Is
fright" he can't help being a good
citizen. He can't help obeying the
laws and supporting the government.
He can't help giving his time. money
and energy to the cause. He
can't help guarding his tongue
against wild and useless criticism.
He can't help a warmer feeling
toward his fellowmen and brothers
in arms, no matter what their sta
ton in life may be. He can't help
feeling that it is no time for private
quarrels that might hamper the one
great cause.
Let's make Fargo 100 per cent
right.

Uncle Sam wants engineers, fire.
men, switchmen and operators for
engineering service in France. Or
-ders to this effect have been re-
ceived at the local recruiting Office
of the United States army, with in
structions to enlist as many men of
this kind as possible for overseas
service.
American troops arriving in France
and the large amount of construction
work being done by Americans in
carrying on the war, bring an urg-
ent demand upon the United States
for help of this kind.
Eight men have enlisted in the.
army service since the first of the
month. The first five, whose names
appeared above. were sent to the
Jefferson barracks on Oct 8. and the
last three were sent Tuesday.

There could be no more deliberate

a dastardly plot against a friend and

diplomats, plots were fostered to
paralyze the great transportation

The Editors Mail Bag


To The Editor of The Forum:
Fifty-five boys-Nelson county's
second quota to the draft army-left
here last week for Camp Dodge. Be-
fore leaving they each received a
pleasant surprise in the form of
present Of $40 from ]. p. Lamb Of
Michigan City, Nelson county's fore
most philanthropist. So far as we
know this is the largest personal
donation to the soldier boys yet re-
ported in the state and in the ag-
-S550-represents a large
sum of money. The Lamb brothers
Of Michigan of which j. p. Lamb is
the senior member have a reputation
for patriotic philanthropy. In the fall
of 1914 when the cry for help came
from starving Belgium this firm con-
tributed 1000 sacks of flour to the
Belgian Relief fund.
Mr.. lambs encouragement to the
boys leaving for the training camp
is in striking contrast to the dis
enlargement they are receiving from
another supposed to- prominent
Nelson county citizen--to wit: A. ].
Gronna, alleged II. s.. senator, who
has so persistently lent his aid to
obstruct the governments measures
aimed to assist the boys. Not only
will the boys remember the generosi-
ty of Mr.. Lamb but there are MUIR
murings from the parents and
friends OF the boys through the
county to the effect that they will
also remember what A. ]. Gronna did
not do for their boys when he pre-
ferred to play the part of satellite for
Bob La Toilette in his attempt to
give comfort to the Kaiser's cause.
Nelson county is patriotic to the core
and is anxious for an opportunity to
prove to the state that it is in
no way responsible for the unpatrio-
tic attitude OF the senator whose
home happens to be here.

Applies For
First Papers
To Join Army

Ole Odegard Of Fargo, did not
want to be classed with that
bunch of foreigners who have
been parasites on the United
States and when called for milf
tary duty gave the excuse that
they are not citizens of the coun-
try.
ole had heard of that kind of
men. This week he applied to
the clerk Of the district court
for his first papers that he might
join the United States army.
At the United States recruiting
office on Front street when he of
fered his services to the govern
ment, Odegard told the officers
that he had been a resident of
the United States for eleven
years and was going to show the
boys" that he appreciated what
Uncle Sam had done for him.

ism, and laws against speculation,
middlemen and cold storage plants.
Whatever we may think of these
proposals for other purposes. they
provide no sovereign remedy for the
high cost Of living. Quack remedies
are quite as dangerous in human
society as they are in human ply
siology. In fact. the effect of the fall
lacious beliefs out of which quack
remedies grow is itself generally in
furious.
Historical Effects of Wrong Ideas.
1t is curious how many great his
tortcal effects the world has expert
enced from misunderstanding the
real nature of rising or falling
prices. For instance. the misunder-
standing as to falling prices in the
eighties and nineties led to the free
silver campaign of 1896 and has af-
fected American politics indirectly
ever since. 1t stimulated the Irish
land agitation and the home rule
movement because of the pitiable
condition in which it placed the Irish
peasant debtors. The misunderstand-
ings OF the recent rise of prices have
stimulated the demand for the I'm
derwood tariff act, while in England
the high cost of living has itself been
cited as a reason why England could
encourage its own production by
putting on a protective tariff!
Everywhere the effect of the I'M
rest is to propose changing the pres
ent condition Of things. The general
attitude of mind has been I've don't
know what's the matter but let's do
something"
The Problem is Monetary.
This all means that if we do not
supply an effective, scientific remedy
for the disease, some unscientific,
ineffective and probably even in
furious nostrum will be tried. In 1896
we nearly tried the free silver no
strum for falling prices. Today in
the same way we are menaced with
revolutionary socialism. -
We come back to our proper sub
ject of price movements. j can see
no way of radically changing price
movements except by changing
monetary standards. After the war
is over the question Of the policy OF
governments in regard to monetary
standards will surely come forward,
There will be a fight for and against
resumption Of specie payments in
paper money counties such as there
was in this country after the Civil
war when it took a decade to con-
quer greenbackism. But If the coun-
tries now on a paper basis insist on
early resumption and carry it out
there will be a sudden fall of prices
which will have as unpleasant effects
as the present rise Of prices. We
found this so ourselves in the late
sixties.
The real cure lies in stabilizing
the dollar. A plan for such stabiliza-
ton will be the subject of the fol-
lowing lecture.
