DEAR FOLKS:

am going to write several
letters to you-in which
| will tell you some things
that | know you are inter-
ested in.
You and l agree, l am sure.
that life is very much easier
for us if we can keep happy.
We all surely understand
that our greatest happiness
comes when we allow our
hearts to lead us-when we
40 as much for others, if not
more, than we do for our
selves.
We all know, in our home
life, for instance, that hap
plness flies out of the WIN
dow if all the members of
the family are not harmoni-
Gus.
we all know that quarrels,
chickering's, or misunder-
standings in our family or
social circles do not get us
anywhere, so far as the ioy
Of living is concerned.
On the other hand, life is
very rosy indeed if we are
thoughtful and kind to one
another in the family circle,
/ and if we are considerate of
the feelings of all others
with whom we come in per.
sonal contact.
| have always believed that
our business life should be
as happy as our home anc
social life.

But l have always had diff
ficulty in persuading big
business men to 60 to the
public with Heart messages
messages that would un-
fold to you and to me the
human side of their bust

They have told me very
often that you would not be

cause you are very human

ness, and a man who would
be willing to let me tell you

 It doesn't do much good to try to brush Or wash it out 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 tiring; use enough to rnoisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips.
 By morning, most if not all, of your dandruff win be gone, and three or four more applications will completely dis solve and entirely destroy 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 hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store. It Is inexpensive and four ounces is all you will need, no matter how much dandruff you have. This simple remedy never fails
