There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that is to dissolve it. This destoys
it entirely. To do this, just get about
four ounces of plain, 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, no matter
now much dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop in
stantly, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, 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 four
ounces is all you will need. This simple
remedy has never been known to fail.

MOVIES HELP
 GOOD WORK FOR
 GOVERNMENT

WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 29.- The United States Civil Service Commission has received an expres- sion of the patriotism of practically all the exhibitors of motion pictures in the United States. The Govern
 ment is in need of thousands ot typewriter operators and stenOgra- phers of both sexes for war work in Washington, and through its 300o local boards of examiners in that many cities, the Commission re- quested the owners and managers of motion picture theatres to al low free of charge an announce ment on their screens of this need of the Government. The refusals were so few as to be negligible. Not more than a hundred of the 20,000 odd exhibitors who were ap- preached declined to render to the people the service asked. Even these can not be charged with dis loyalty; most of them held decided views as to their duty to their pa irons who pay for entertainment only. The only criticism of the Government came from three exhib- itors who declined on the ground that it was proposed to place tax on motion picture tickets. One owner asked remuneration in the sum of 25 cents week, and anoth- CT stipulated that he was to be re- lieved of any responsibility for damagc to the slides furnished by the Government The slides cost less than 10 cents apiece. Almost without exception the movie men were not only willing, but were even eager to serve the Government in the manner requested. This hearty response from 10000 busi- nnss men representative of every part of the country has a striking si"nincance. It is interesting to note in this connection that the es- timated daily attendance at motion picture shows in the United States is ten million. This allows an ay- craze of 500 for each house.
