THE EASIEST WAY
TO END DANDRUFF

There is one sure way that
never fails to remove dandruff
completely and that is to dissolve
It. This destroys 1t entirely. To
do this. just get about four
ounces of plain, ordinary liquid
aryon; apply 1t at night when re-
firing; use enough to moisten the
scalp and rub 1t in gently with
the finger tips.
BY morning most. IL not all, of
your dandruff will be gone, and
three or four more applications
Will completely dissolve and en-
ureiy, destroy, every single sign
and trace of 1t, no matter how
much dandruff you may have
You will find. too. that all itch-
ing and digging OF the scalp will
stop instantly, and your hair will
be fluffy, lustrous, glossy. silky
and soft, and look and feel q hun
o1ed times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t Is inexpensive,
and four ounces is all you will
need. This simple remedy has
never been known to fail. adv.

They talked late about Jarvis
work, his methods of writing, the
length of time it took him to con-
ceive and work out a play. 1t all
fascinated Bambi. She felt that a
wonderful interest had come into
her life. A new thing was to be
created, some day, under her roof,
near her. She was to have part in
it, help In its shaping to perfec-
ton. She gloated over the days
to come, and warm rush OF
gratitude to Jarvis for bringing
her this sense of his need of her
made her burst out:
"Oh, life is such fun"
He looked at her closely.

sword" she laughed, starting for
the garden. You go to bed, so

play. I'll round up the Profess
sor. He's forgotten to bring him

He obeyed without objection.
He felt, all at once, like a ship
at anchor after long years of float
ing aimlessly, but, manlike, he
took his good fortune as his just
right. and 1t never occurred to
him to thank Babmi for his new
sense of peace and well-being.
The marriage of Jarvis and
Bambi furnished the town with a
ten days topic of conversation,
fact to which they we're perfectly

Indifferent. Then it was accept
ed, as any other wonder, such as
comet passing, or an airship dis
aster.
In the meantime the strangely
assorted trio fell into a more OF
less comfortable relationship. Jar
Wis and the Professor almost
came to blows, but for the most
part the diplomatic Bambi kept
peace. But the hours hung heavy,
and one day, as she lay in the
hammock, a book in her hand, ii
came to her that she might try II
herself. She might put down her
thoughts, her dreams, her ambi-
lions apd make story of them.
Thought and action we're one with
Bambi. In five minutes time she
had pencil and paper, and mad set
forth on her new adventure.
For the next few days she was
so absorbed in her experiment
that she almost neglected the
Heavenly Twins" The Profess
sor commented on her absence,
and Ardelia complained that 'ev-
erybody in this heah house is
crazy, all of them studyin' and
writin'; yo' CANT even sing a
hallelujah but somebody is a
shoutin' 'Sh!'"
Only Jarvis failed to note any
change. 1t was too much to eS-
pect that the great Jocelyn could
concentrate on any but his own
mental attitudes.
Like most facile people, Bambi
was bored with her masterpiece
at the end of a week, and aban-
doned it without sigh. She de-
cided that literature was not to
be enriched by her. In fact, she
never gave a thought to her first
born child until a month after its
birth, when a New York maya
zirfe fell into her hands offering
a prize of $500 for short story.
She took out her manuscript and
read it over with sense Of sur
prise. She marched off to a
stenographer, had it typed, and
sent 1t to the contest, using a pen
name as signature, and then she
promptly forgot about 1t.
Six weeks more of hard labor
brought Success" almost to COM
pletion. Bambi was absorbed in
the play. 1t was undoubtedly
much better; her hopes were high
that it would get production. If
only Jarvis could get to New York
with it and show 1t to the mag
mates; but that meant money, and
they had none. Her busy brain
spent hours scheming, but no
light came.
Then out of the blue fell a
bolt! A long envelope,
with a magazine imprint on 1t,
came with her mornings mail
and nearly ended a young and
useful life. The editor begged to
inform her that the committee of
judges had awarded her the short
story prize, that her tale would
be published in the forthcoming
Issue, and she would please find
check enclosed. Had she any
other manuscript that they might
see? Would she honor them with
