Within ten minutes after an appli-
cation of Danderine you can not find
a single trace of dandruff or falling
hair and your scalp will not itch. but
what will please you most will be
after few weeks use, when you see
new hair. fine and downy at first
yes--but really new hair-growing
all over the scalp.
a little Dandt line immediat ely
doubles the beauty of your hair. No
difference how dull. faded, brittle
and scraggy, just moisten a cloth
with Danderine and carefully draw
it through your hair. taking one small
strand at a time. The effect is amaz-
ir y-your hair will be light, fluffy
and wavy, and have an appearance
OF abundance; an incompatible lus-
ire. softness and luxuriance.
Get small bottle Of knowlton's
Danderinc for a few cents at ary

prove that your hair is as pretty and
soft as any--that it has been neglect
ed or injured by careless treatment
that's all--you surely can have
beautiful hair and lots of it if you

Kansas farmers have petitioned the
War Department TO speed the return
of her soldiers to the farms. At a
conference OF farm bureau officers
and county commissioners recently
at Manhattan the committee on
reconstruction offered the following
resolution:
I'VE respectfully request the Sec
rotary Of Na- and the Provost Mar
shall General to adopt some such plan
as will return the soldiers to the
homes they left at the earliest posi-
BILE date. In Kansas there has been
sowrl to wheat this fall Il record
acreage. amounting possibly to more
than 100000 acres, with crop
prospect which, if realized, will re-
quire an army Of workers to harvest
next year. The demands of the farm
for labor in the early spring for
preparation and planting the spring
crops is also great, and in no other
way can the situation so well be met
as through the rehabilitation of our
soldiers and sailors in the manner
