To be possessed of head of heavy,
beautiful hair; soft, lustrous, fluffy,
wavy and free from dandruff is mere
ly a matter of using little Dander-
ine.
1t is easy and inexpensive to have
nice, soft hair and lots of it. Just get
a small bottle of Knowlton's Dander-
inc now--it costs but few cents-all
drug stores recommend it-apply
little as directed and within ten min
utes there will be an appearance of
abundance, freshness, f1ufiness 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
falling hair at once.
If you want to prove how pretty
and soft your hair really is, moisten
cloth with 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 a few moments
delightful surprise awaits everyone
who tries this.-Adv.

SOCIALISM WAS
FOUNDED BY MARX

Karl Marx, a German Jew, who
formulated and advocated that eco
Eomic creed now called socialism,
died thirty-fve years ago today,
March IA, 1888. The father OF
scientific socialism''-so called to dis
tinguish it from the Utopian social
ism of the previous decades and
enturies-was born just a century
ago, and the socialists of the world
had already commenced to plan a
great observance of the centenary
when the war suddenly put an end :,
that ambitious fabric of information
alism which Marx and his associates
and successors had devoted their lives
to fostering Marks book, Capital
is in many ways a. monumental eco
romic study, and was the result of
years of patient toll. Marx and hi,
colleagues, banded together in the In
ternational Workingmen's Society,
remained firm in their principles dur
ing the stormy days of the Franco
Frussian war, and maintained friend
w intercourse with the French com
rades," The International contain

pelling Bakunin and his following. Il
was an expiring effort, however, ana
after the death of the International
Marx devoted his entire attention tt
the building up of the German socia
/ democracy. He was often imprison
ed in Germany, and spent much of hi
time in England, carrying on his worl
from London.

LYRIC

Nam zelle," the French-American
comedy success continues to create
furore at the Lyric theatre and at

this popular house have the Poll
Players had such excellent material
to work and each and every member
of the company is taking advantage
of the opportunity of showing what
they can do.
The production was written for
laughing purposes only and that the
author succeeded in his intentions is
evident both in the afternoons and
evenings. There is not a serious line
in the entire play and although there
is a plot it is almost entirely lost in
the flood of comedy which is poured
over the footlights both from the
stage and from the audience. During
the second scene in the second act
most of the actors form a part of the
audience, and the manager, ushers,
ticket taker, stage hands and even

spicuous by his absence so far as the

play.
The same act is Of peculiar interest
in that the audience is given an OPP
portunity of seeing the stage hands
strike and reset a scene which is
done in full view of the spectators.
While this is going on the play con-
tinues without interruption and some
| ludicrous situations are shown as
| the actors and stage hands interfere
with each other in their work. Those
who have seen Miss Warda Howard
in the more serious parts which she
has been playing will be delighted to
see her in an entirely different role,
that of a frivolous French actress de-
| termined to score a success despite
all opposition.
