To be possessed Of. a head of
heavy, beautiful hair; soft, lustrous,
fluffy, wavy and free from dandruff
is merely matter of using a little
Danderine.
1t is easy and inexpensive to have
NICE soft hair and lots Of it. Just
get a small bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine now-it costs but few
cents-all drug stores recommend
it-apply a little as directed and
within ten minutes there will be an
appearance of abundance, freshness,
fluffiness and an incompatible gloss
and lustre, and try as you will you
can not find trace of dandruff or
falling hair; but your real surprise
will be after about two weeks use,
when you will see new hair-fine
and downy at first-yes-but really
new hair-sprouting out all over
your scalp-Danderine is, we believe
the only sure hair grower, destroyer
of dandruff and cure for itchy
scalp, and it never fails to stop fall
ing hair at once.
If you want to prove how pretty
and soft your hair really is, moisten
a cloth with a little Danderine and
carefully draw it through your hair
taking one small strand at a time.
Your hair will be soft, glossy and
beautiful in just few moments
delightful surprise awaits everyone
who tries this.-Adv,

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
it if you don't.
1t doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it 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 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 de-
stroy 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 dandruff you have. This sim
pie remedy never fails.-Adv.

J.. S.PROTESTS
DESTRUCTION Of
BELGIAN MINES
Holds Such Act Would Con.
firm Belief Solemn Assur-
anCes of Germany Are
Not in Good Faith.

Washington. Nov. 7.-Secretary
Lansing made public today a mes
sage to the German government
through the Swiss minister protest
ing against the reported intention of
the German authorities in Belgium
to destroy coal mines upon evacua-
ton. If the acts contemplated are
carried out, the message says, it will
confirm the belief that the solemn
assurances of the German govern
ment are not given in good faith"
The note, addressed to the Swiss
minister follows:
II have the honor to request that
you will bring the following to the
attention of the German govern
ment:
Units note of October 20 the Ger
nan government announced that
the German troops are under the
strictest instructions to spare private
property and to exercise care for
the population to the best of their
ability
Information has now reached the
government of the United States to
the effect that the German authori-
ties in Belgium have given notice
to the coal mining companies that
all men and animals should be
brought out of the pits; that all raw
materials in the possession of the
companies should be delivered to the
Germans and that the mines will be
destroyed at once.
ACTS so wanton and malicious in
volving as they do the destruction of
a vital necessity to the civilian popu-
lation of Belgium and the conse-
quent suffering and loss of human
life which willfollow, cannot fail to
impress the government and the peo-
pie Of the United States as wilfully
cruel and inhuman. If these acts, in
fragrant violation of the declaration
of October 20, are perpetrated, it will
confirm the belief tat the solemn
assurances of the German govern
ment are not given in good faith.
In the circumstances the govern
ment of the United States, to which
the declaration of October 20 was
made. enters an emphatic protest
against the measures contemplated
by the German authorities for whose
conduct the government of Germany
is wholly recnonSih1e"

Germans Destroy Railways,
Indicating That They Will
Not Accept Battle Along
Present Line.

With the British Army on the
Franco-Belgian Front, Nov. 7.-(By
Associated ress.)-Steady progress
was maintained today by the British
First, Third and Fourth armies. The
main body of the enemy is appar-
emily continuing its retirement to-
ward Mons. Maubeuge and Avesnes,
while the comparatively weak forces
which are assigned to the task of
fighting a rear guard action were
interposing such resistance as they
could.
This morning the Germans were
destroying the railways in the vicin-
ity of Mons, indicating that they had
no intention of accepting battle
along the present line.
Up to last night the British had
penetrated to an extreme depth of
II miles in two days. At dawn to-
day they renewed their attack and,
Notwithstanding the heavy rain
which had been falling for two days,
were getting ahead rapidly.
Quievrechaim, at the Belgian Dor
der northeast of Valenciennes, ca
pitulated today. Further south the
British are forging ahead on Belgian
soil. having forced crossing of the
Angreau river late yesterday and
captured Angreau and Roisin. Other
attacking troops succeeded in reach
ing the main Bavay-Avesnes high
way southeast of Bavay, while their
comrades were driving on Bavay
from the west.
The German divisions in front of
the British are weak in numbers,
tired out by fighting and greatly dis
organized. Their falling back, how
ever cannot be characterized as a
rout, for they still retain an organ
ization.
Prisoners captured by the British
tell of the desperate straits of their
army. They report that on some
sectors the soldiers retreated with
out orders and that on others they
refused to deliver a counter attack.
In regard to the so-called Mons
Undergraduates line there is no
regular system of defenses linking
them together. The line. therefore,
is largely imaginary.
