What so proudly we hailed at the twiights last cleaning,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars throttle perilous fight,
Der the ramparts we watched, were s. CALAMITY streaming7

Washing Won't Rid
Head Of DandruH

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 re-
firing; 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
applications will completely dissolve
and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace of ii, no matter how
much dandruff 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,
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
never fails to do the work.
