You Can't Brush Or
Wash Out Dandruff

The only sure way to get rid of dan
druff is to dissolve it, then you de-
stroy 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.
Do this tonight, and by morning,
most If not all, of your dandruff will
be gone, and three or four more ap-
plications will completely dissolve
and entirely destroy every single sign
and trace of it, 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, lus-
trous, glossy, silky and soft, and look
and feel hundred times better.
You can get liquid aryon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive and
never fails to do the work.-Adv.

national harvest are almost counlIe0o
and they present the most critical OF
situations, of which no solution eA-
lists but a continued expansion OF the
efforts Of the Railway Administrator
in the movement of foodstuffs IN
every direction to the exclusion OF
much other commerce Of the country.
Considerable progress has been mace
in the last 10 days, but continued r1s-
es in the price of cereal commodities
and the failure to secure sufflclent
surplus over immediate domestic con-
sumption to feed the allies are evil
dence that there is still deficiency
in food cars and that they need be
still further increased.
Comparisons of the movement
from day to day during the last few
DAYS with movements Of similar per-
iods last year reflect the efforts be-
ing made by the railway Directorate.
We have, however, a Ions accumula-
ton to be got over and to be got over
within the next SO days. The situa-
ton calls for every cooperation OF
the public-through the quick loading
of cars, loading of them to capacity
and discharging them quickly-and IN
every way reducing the tax on the
railways. Cooperation can be given
by reduction in consumption OF food
stuffs, by the consumption OF home
and local stores to the exclusion, so
far as may be, of transported articles.
If every interest co-operates we snail
supply the allies and remedy the dis
tribution OF our abundant domestic
supplies, for our farms are full OF
foodstuffs.
mo effort is being spared to move
allied food as fast as it can be accum-
ulated in the interior and today the
railway Directorate is arranging spec
ial trains to carry meat and packing
house products from Chicago to load
the waiting ships"
Larger Shipments in Sight.
Hoover's warning comes at time
when there looms possibility OF
greater shipments, in the belief of the
Railroad Administration officials. Di-
doctor General McAdoo's priorities
and embargoes have cleared the situa-
ton somewhat for freer transporta-
ton to the seaports and DR.. Harry A.
Garfield's fuelless days have helped to
free the harbors Of the ship conges-
ton.
In both OF these administrations
there is confidence that if the pub
lie comes to the aid, particularly in
the matter of nonshipment of noneS-
sentials, the transportation relief will
be afforded
Director General McAdoo two weeks
ago started thousands of cars into the
corn belt. and with the scheme of
coal distribution put into effect today
by the Super-War Council a greater
movement is possible. Frank warn
ing is given by officials that some in
dustries must be compelled to slow
down in shipments and production.

SWEEPS PEORIA

PEORIA, H.. Feb. 22.-Within the
last twenty-four hours more than
1000 families in Peoria have reported
to the health department that from
one to four members of each mousse

cent of the doctors in Peoria.
The ailment manifests itself by con-
tinued vomiting, cramps, and diarrhea.
The health department has been un-

"Women's foreign service hospitals,

too long, but the National American
Woman Suffrage association duly took
it over, length and all. Then along
