Combing Won't Rid
Hair OF Dandruff

The only sure way to get rid of
dandruff 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 retir-
ing. 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 ap-
plications will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy every single sign and
trace of it, no matter how much
dandrun 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-
trous, glossy, silky and soft, and look
and feel a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
- drug store. 1t is inexpensive and
never fails to do the work-Adv.

STAR OF THE NORTH.

Most people. IL they know nothing
else of astronomy. at any rate know
the Pole star. the one star which
seems to keep its place in the heavens
without movement Of any kind. There
are great many. however. who do
not know what a wonderful thing IL
is. In the first place. 1t can be seen
when looked at through q good teles-
cope to be two stars. and not one.
There is one fairly bright one, of what
Is known as the second magnitude,
and another of the ninth magnitude
close to it.
But that is not all. The brighter OF
the two is really three stars revolv-
ing round one another. or. rather.
round their common center of grav-
lty, like three children playing "ring
a. round OF roses." This secret is re-
vealed to us by what Is perhaps the
most astonishing of all scientific in
struments. the spectroscope. It not
only tells us what the stars are made
of but whether they are moving to-
ward US or away from US.
When you stand facing the star you
are always facing north. The reason
that 1t does not appear to move. as
the others do. is that 1t Is nearly in
line with the axis of the earth. Its
distance from us is enormous. This
can be judged from the fact that al
though the earth in its journey
around the sun is about 1so, 200. 900
miles from where It was six months
ago that makes no appreciable differ
ence to its distance from the Pole
star. II must. therefore, be many
times 190. 100000 miles away.

but are implored to hold firm under
strain OF which they have bitter
experiences. They now perfectly
understand that no defenses can be
held when II Is decided to bring suf-
ficient force against them.

has far exceeded all former efforts
In results. moral and material But
the great attack in the east, which
was hoped for and which, In combi-
nation with those In the west and on
the italian front, might well have
been decisive, can no longer be

From the military as well as from
the political point of view, the Rus
sian upheaval has introduced new pos
sibility, the effect of which no man
can foresee. All that is certain is
that the Germans will use their ut
most efforts to turn the disorganiza-
ton of Russia to the fullest account,
and that the allies must spare no
effort to make their aims perfectly
clear to the present leaders OF the
Russian people.
Allies Must Define Objects.
The German object Is to represent
the allies, and Great Britain in par
ticular, as the obstacle to reason
able peace, which their excessive de-
mands alone prevent. The time has
] come for the allies to dehne theii
objects and to make clear to neutrals
and belligerents that they are hght-
ing only for the freedom OF all ma.
tions from the intolerable menace oi
German militarism.
"Now that America is ranged on

aid to our cause, and as II is making
great preparations for a military In
tervention, the moment Is propitlous
for q formal joint declaration. Here
az home, as throughout the world,
there are signs that cannot be Ignored

inc broods over Europe, and some
German writers have begun to real
