REGULATING THE READY
REVOLVER.
CSan Francisco Chronicle)

\ step, and it is only step. in
the right direction has been taken
by the state senate in passing a bill
10 regulate the sale of firearms and
other deadly weapons. 1t prohibits
the carrying Of certain specified
deadly instruments; requires dealers
to maintain register Of frearm
sales. and forbids sales to persons
under Is years.
The intention is excellent. but il
is difficult TO see how such law is
going to minimize the undoubted
evil of the ready revolver. The mere
fact Of the dealer maintaining a
register Of sales will not help any so
long as he is permitted 10 sell TO all
and sundry purchasers over the age
of IS years. His book may help the
police in tracing offenders, Lut by
the time the police are called in the
murder will have been committed.
In the nature Of things the dealer
will not be able 10 discriminate be-
tween the person intent upon crime
and the householder purchasing a
revolver for protective purposes. II
the shopkeeper is a good citizen, he
will. of course. refuse 20 sell 10 a
wildeyed man or woman but il so
often happens that the modern Grim
inal is model OF composure. well
dressed and apparently respecta bic.
IL would be far better 10 p0hibit
the sale or even the possession OF
fireams For what purpose are such
weapons required If for the defense
Of the household a long barreled
gun would be just as useful and
an instrument OF that kind could
not be carried about the streets with
out attracting attention
There is no Disgusting the simple
truth that there is no other country
in the world where so many murders
are committed by means Of firearms.
Nor Is this 20 be wondered at when
one passes down the street and no

The advantage of deep spading

The advantage of deep spading

Yet practically no person in perfect
health is in any great danger Of con-
tracing the disease under ordinary
circumstances.
1t requires the presence of the germs
and some outside Influence which SO
lowers ones vitality that the growth
of the germ goes on practically un-
opposed by natural forces. In other
words. anything that disturbs the
normal balance encourages the growth
of disease germs of every variety.
Fatigue is one cause. The tired
feeling one experiences after pro-
lonsed effort of any kind is simply the
sum total of the protests coming from
every cell in the body against over
work. In this condition the cells are
unable to put up good fight and SO
they succumb to the onslaught Of the
disease germs because they are SO
tired that there is practically no fight
left in them.
Loss of sleep and over-eating also
are predisposing causes. The first
operates by leaving the cells partially
exhausted by the work Of the previous
waking hours. For it is only during
sleep that fatigue exhaustion Is ncu
tralized.
Over eating cutters up the body
with a lot of more than useless ma :
terial that has to be handled and the
body is unable to do this and at the
same time maintain its defenses
at the maximum strength.
Stale air. another cause. is prac-
tically always the result of the pres
ence of number of persons in the
place where it is found. Air that is
thus deficient in oxygen cannot keep
the functions of the body going at a
normal pace and SO thus logged and
hampered, it Is in a fair way to fall
easily before the onslaughts of wait
ing germs.

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 1t If you
don't.
1t doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash ii 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 1t 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 dan
druff you have. This simple remedy
never fails.
