HoRvATH's ATTEMPT FAILURE.

The recent attempt of Lieut.. Gener-
al Horvath to gain control of the Rus
sian military forces in Siberia was
such a complete failure that it is prob
able the 400 zemstvo troops which
sided with him and subsequently were
disarmed, will join the army of Gen.
Semenoff, anti-Bolshevik leader in
Transbaikalia, who is cooperating
with entente forces. The troops Of
fered no resistance to the decision of
the allies that they must lay down
their arms.
The disarming of the zemstvos was
effected by squads of allied troops
who virtually besejged the barracks
occupied by the revolters. A decision
to submit an ultimatum to the revolt
ers was reached by the council COM
manders.
The revolters were given the option
Of returning to their original command
or of joining the forces of General
Sem menoff on the Manchurian front or
of submitting to disarmament.
At o'clock Sunday evening the al
lied patrols appeared in the streets
approaching the staff building and ad-
joining the barracks. A curious
throng attracted to the scene remain
ed until midnight. Apparently warn

their barracks to the allies emissaries
and for hours refused to treat with
them. Eventually, however. they sub

An aide to General Horvath today
sought to explain away the detection
of the troops and disclaimed any in
, tention on the part of his chief to
seize control of the government.

Within ten minutes after an appli-
cation of Danderine you can not find a
single trace of dandruf or falling hair
and your scalp will not itch, but what
will please you most will be after a few
weeks use. when O e new hair,
fine and downy at first-yes-but real
ly new hair-growing all over the
scalp.
A little Danderine Immediately
doubles the beauty of your hair. No
difference how dull. faded, brittle and
scraggy, just moisten a cloth with
Danderine and carefully draw 1t
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. The effect is amaz'
ing-your hair will be light, fluffy and
wavy, and have an appearance OF
abundance; an incompatible lustre,
s~oftness and luxuriance.
Get a small bottle of Knowlton's
nanderine for a few cents at any drug
store or toilet counter. and prove that
your hair is as pretty and soft as any
that it has been neglected or injur'
ed by careless treatment-that's all
you surely can have beautiful hair and
lots of it if you will just try a little
Danderine.

Excess Profits.
