Dandruff Soon
Ruins The Hair

Girls--if you want plenty of thick,
beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do by all
means get rid of dandruff, for it will
starve your hair and ruin it il you don't.
1t doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash il out. The only sure
way to get rid IF dandruH is to dissolve
it, then you destroy it entirely. To do
this, get about four ounces Of ordinary
liquid aryon apply it at night when re-
firing; use enough to moisten the scalp
and rub it in gently with the finger tips.
By morning, most if not all, OF your
dandruff will be gone, and three or four
more applications will 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 your
hair will look and feel hundred times
better. You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive and four
ounces is all you will need, no natter
how much dandruf you have. This
simple remedy never fails,

With the official baseball season al
ready started and the time only few
weeks off for the opening of the semi
pro game it begins to lcok as tho fans
of the Illinois valley will be without
the great national game. In Streator
and Peru. there is some interest shown
but Ottawa, La Sale and Morris, have
practically given up the idea of put
ting team in the field.
Streator started cut with the inten-
ton of placing fast serni-pro nine in
the field. one that would compare
fayorably with any aggregation in this
part of the state. StTcator has plenty
of fans to support her team if once a
collection of diamond stars is brought
together.
A trolley league with La Sale,
Spring Valley, Peru and Ottawa, as
members seems to have fallen thru as
no definite steps have been taken by
the members who were promoting the
proposition.
Peru will probably enter the field
with O team, regardless of what the
outcome of the trolley league amounts
to. The Peruvians. however, will find
it necessary to stage most OF their
games on foreign fields as they have
not been given enough support to war
rant staging many home games.
At Streator they have abandoned
the idea OF a City League entirely.

fairly well but there was not enough

awakened, and the shagbark hiekories are
 beginning to produce wonderful prismatc
 oolors. Suddenly from underneath the green network of the trees, there comes a gurgling song. It Is the little brook singing, singing, ever singing. Here ana
 there the dancing sunbeams try to eaten it, but the musical brook slips from them, and goes merrily on. The chicl6adee with 1 his silvery notes tries to stop it. but the brook runs only faster and says, q am happy, 80 happy; all winter long 1 was asleep under a blanket of snow and icA but now 1t is spring, and ] can so on and on. and see the wonderful world about me! Winter tried to hinder me, but always I sang, and now am free and happy-I have found life, beautiful life!
 And as this great awakening comes to nature, 1t comes to us. The awakening, which reveals our true self, and leads us over daisied fields and sunkissed meadows, and at last to a new life itself; a life which we never knew existed. For perhaps, like the little brook we have slumbered, encased In 8 house of ice, oblivious to the great world outside, and then some day the ice breaks and our house is shattered. We see our true self our faults are no longer hid from us We start on the road to forgiveness, and as we journey onward, spring enters into our life: all that is good and great within us blossoms out and forms itself into a noble character. We have had our great awakening.
 I once knew 8 woman who in the pur- suit of happiness neglected her home and child. And this woman never knew the real happiness of life until her child was taken by the Master. Then came the great awakening. She had slumbered. Long solitary hours she spent to her self All her time and interest had been devoted on herself. Finally she erected child's hospital for the poor, and IS the years passed by that great happiness, which she had never known, came The song of the bluebird entered into her life; the springtime of her life had come. It was the great awakening.

triotic song of the Germans "Deutsch- | land Ueber Alles," is an indictment o1 l Germany on that score, then I wish to state in all possible charity that he is wrong. He interprets the words to mean: Germany above all the nations! They | mean nothing of the sort. They mean exactly the same thing, which we mean, when we say that from Maine to Cali fornia, from the Great Lakes to the Gulf. | Our motto should be: America First | Above Everything On Earth They do not call for world dominion or as Kip | ling expresses it in his recessional "Do- minion Over Palm and Pine" nor do the words of the German song boast as the
 English Rule Brittanica' does: All thine shall be the subject main and all the shores it circles thine! No, the song sim ply means and distinctly says that from the Maas (Mouse) to the Mamel, fromsthe Alps to the Baltic, Germany should be above all in this world. And 1t does not address itself to the many millions of Germans scattered all over the world, but only to those in the fatherland itself. It is clear to me that pr. Barnwell is not familiar enough with German or with this particular song to fully under- stand the sentiment of it. His unintentional error is on a par with another very popular error which makes
 out the German word "Kriegsherr" mean
 ing chief commander of the army and
 navy one of the prerogatives of our
 President as well as of the German Elm
 peror, war-lord bogy.
 To convince Dr. Barnwell and others
 who are laboring under the same mistake
 will give a full translation of the song
 Deutschland Ueber Alles," and am cer-
 tain that the words and the sentiments expressed will strike a sympathetic chord in the hearts of all Americans who have retained only spark of the American spirit:
 Germany above all; above all fin the world
 As long as it stands together in broth erly unity for defense or offense. From the Mouse to the Mamel, From the Alps to the Baltic, Germany above all in the world! German women, German faithfulness, German wine and German song Shall always retain their fair renown! They shall inspire as to noble deeds our whole life long.
 Ge, man women, German loyalty German wine and German song. Unity, justice and liberty for the Ger man fatherland!
 Let us all strive for them brotherly with heart and hand
 Unity. right and freedom are the foun- dations of welfare.
 Flourish in the splendor of these bless l ings,

 l out of place. I venture to say, despite | the London censor, that if we had song ] like this, substituting the word AmericaT for German and clothing the same senti
 ments in as beautiful language and il :, we were singing it in unison from the Atlantic to the Pacific until the very vault of heaven should reverberate 1T
