American Boy Arrives
From Zone of War

An American Port, Oct. 17.-Fresh
from German occupied town in France
and with a thrilling history of three
years intimate view of the great war
panorama, thirteen-year- Lueian
Busiere, an American lad, arrived to-
day-and was bitterly disappointed
when the father from whom he was
separated by the war, failed to appear
at the wharf.
Lucian IS father, Theophile Busiere,
an American citizen of French parent
age, lives in st. Louis. Before the war
he learned of an heritage which had
been bequeathed him by French rela-
tives and sailed for Paris with his son
to claim it. There he was pressed into
the French army and the boy sent to
live with relatives near Lille. For nine
months Busiere, Sr., fought against
the Germans and then was released on
representations of the American am
bassador. He found it impossible to
locate the boy. The German hordes
had swept over France and the chi d
was lost. Coming back, Busiere ap-
pealed to the Red Cross and after
months of searching, this organization
finally located in a small town in IN
vaded France.
They persuaded the Germans to con-
sent to his release and finally turned
Lucian over to relatives who sent him
to Havre and then to England. 1t was
a long and arduous task, one delay be-
ing while the youngster was held by
French authorities ON suspicion of be-
ing spy and again at a British port
on the same suspicion.

Market Shows Strength
In Wall Street Today

New York, Oct. 19.-The New York
Evening Sun financial review todoy
said:
The sharp upturn in yesterdays late
session had some effect on today S
stock market The opening showed tho
effect of an overnight accumulation
of buying orders, mainly for the short
account, though there has been good
deal of quiet investment buying going
on the past two or three days.
The increasing momentum impaired
to the liberty loan campaign improved
general sentiment measureably. Re-
ports of further inroads ON German
and Austrian morale operated to the
same purpose. The statement of the
government food contral authorities
that the corner had b6en turned in
high prices and that steps would be
taken to curb extortionate retail pric-
es especially for sugar, meats and
flour, was encouraging and timely.

If you want plenty of thick, beautl-
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 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.
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 it.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop, and
your hair will look and feel a hundred
times better. You can get liquid arvon
at any drug store. 1t is inexpensive
and four ounces is all you will need,
no matter how much dandruff you
have. This simple remedy never fails.

the human body to illustrate the |
working relation of the parts to the |
whole. He said the body was one
body, but had many members, and
that each organ had its particular
work to dO-the nose for smelling,
the eye for seeing, the ear for hear
ing, ETC., but that the eye couldn't
say unto the ear: Il have no need Of
thee In short, each organ had its
function to perform in order to make
the perfect organism. And then he
likened the human body to the body
of Christ or the church and told Of
the need Of diversity of employment
yet with harmony.
The world, before we can have
perfect peace, will have to stand for
the same illustration. The develop
ment Of the telegraph wire to the I'M
deTsea cable gave the world body its

worlds brain is scattered. The cen

And, of course, there could be no
violation Of Gods universal scheme
in as complete an organization of
the world as we now have of our
states. AS the theory of states rights
has been gradually battered down by
experience, so will nations rights
gradually merge into the rights of
hUmanity-eV everywhere the same.
We are a part of the world. We're
in it and of it. We can't get out of

The French revolution checked the

FINLAND ALMOST FREE NATION BY
 NEW RUSS LAW
Practically Every Right of Self-GOvernment Is
 Conferred.

E retrograd, June 1.-The conflict caused, by Ffn1and's claim that the rights of the former emperor as grand duke of Finland did not pass automatically to the provisional gov ernment has been satisfactorily set tied by new law which will be valid until Russo Finnish relations are per- manent1y regulated by the constitu- ent assembly.
 The right to decide all state trans actions, except affairs affecting Rus sian subjects, and the right to fix the date for the opening and closing of the Finnish diet is conceded to the Finnish senate.<
 Finland also gets the right of leg islative initiative, the right to con firm the budget, revoke administra- tive decrees, summon the ecclesiasti- cal council and, finally, the right to pardon offenders, counted in almost all countries as a sovereign preroga- tive.
 { The law practically confers on Fin land complete internal autonomy.
