A Simple Way To q
Remove Dandruff

There is one sure way that has never
failed to remove dandruff at once, and
that is to dissolve it, then you destroy it
entirely. To do this, just get about four
ounces OF plain common liquid arvon
from any drug store (this is all you will
need), 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 dis
solve and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace of it, no matter how much
dandruff you may have.
You will find all itching and digging
of the scalp will stop instantly, and your
hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky
and soft and look and feel a hundred
times better,

what he had said. They are sending some of the boys to reformatorics- making criminals of them
 Joel and Hazel were quite used to be- ing called at any hour, but this night they sat in bathrobes and slippers with Old Jacob and planned and planned as merrily as if it were a party, until the sun rolled himself up with a yawn He had almost decided to cover his face with cloud for last forty winl1s, but the sight of Old Jacob hurrying home wearing a determined and really very beautiful smile made the big, round sun change his mind. "I'u just stay out and help" he declared, positively, so the clouds that had gathered went tumbling away.
 Nobody knew really just how tac se- cret got out, unless the brook gllrgled 1t through some faucet The perfume laden breeze may have breathed 1t forth in its morning song, or perhaps some bright golden butterfly let 1t be known that beyond the wall there was a great deal of rcarranging, transplanting, roll ing, smoothing and harc1nering going on.

They would have done their share in its de- velopment, and they would have been so proud of 1t. Old Jacobs eyes shone with the joy of his dream as he stopped at one of Brookdale's busiest corners.
 Four avenues met here and swept grandly on, statue to some of the city's heroes stood calmly in the center, and on either side magnificent buildings lowered toward the sky. John would have" But the gay call of little girl to her mates across the way broke Tn on Old Jacobs dream.

out of danger.
 John would have been quick and brave like that" Old Jacobs heart sang ezuItingly and mighty cheer arose from the crowd and the motorman steadied himself against the bar.
 But the cheer stopped as though the throats that uttered 1t had suddenly be- come paralyzed, for the red-haired boy slipped as he tried to dodge back His coat caught in the running board and he was flung against the statue of some of the city's heroes. As they tenderly gathered tip the life1ess little body Old Jacob leaned weakly against the build ing.
 John" he replied, du1ly; and all the way home his heart moaned for this brave son that might have been. The great gate swung open and shut with ! dull hollow sound, and over the garcen there hung q strange something like sigh that might have come from the heart of the flowers. Long after the last pansy had closed her eye for the night Old Jacob walked up and down, up and down, with that bright, boyish face ever before him. Then came the recollection of the minister's visit that morning and

 "You are a very rcsourceful young mar" she said by way of praise before he had drawn up little table before the blazing fire and poured her cup of fragrant tea from the little old brown teapot she had handled lovingly for so long. Tt is quite like old times, drink ing tea here, isn't it?"

pain in her heart as she mingled with the nerryrnaIers. Roger had always been her joy, but now ke evidently cared for her no more. All his time was given to Hazel. At last, unable to be brave any longer, Ruth unobserved entered the deserted sugar house. She sat down on a low bench, trying to plan her life without Roger, when he and Hazel en- tered, seemingly for hot sugar. So en- grossed were they with each other, they never saw Ruth, who was trying to escape without being seen. Suddenly she was arrested by an exclamation from Roger, and turned in time to see a show CT of boiling sugar fall over his hands and arms as he pushed Hazel from the kettle, that they had somehow upset. A cry of pain escaped from Rogers lips as the sugar burned into the flesh. I'm mediately Ruth seized a bucket half filled snow and water, and, hurrying to him, pushed his hands into it.
 Come here and help" she called to Hazel, who was moving towards the door.

part to play Aunt Caroline had prom ised her gay season. Well, she had more than fulfilled her ambitious re1a- lives hope for her. Every eligible man she had met had offered her his homage and his heart. It had remained for Ran dall hione to appear indifferent.
 A wind came sweeping down the mountain and sent little chill through the girl. There came a loud clap Of thunder and few big raindrops fell, pretending sudden summer storm. Hil- da drew back in fright. Lightning il- lunined the darleening heavens.
 "Hilda, I am going to break in win dow and let you out of this storm, said voice close to her. 'Just wait a min ute!' She looked up to see Randall, coat collar turned up and hat pulled low to protect him from the violent rain storm as he hurried around the cottage. It seemed long time before the front door swung open and Randall was pull ing the boards of with a little hatchet he had found somewhere.
 He cut up the boards and kindled g fire in one of the grates. Then he open ed up a big box and unearthed a gay

When the Idol of His Heart Fell

Have it tomorrow afternoon, and that will be the wind up of sugaring. The buds are too far out and the nights too warm for any more good sap. Ask ev- eryone," he called, as Roger hastened away to give out the invitations.
 Rogers invitations were all accepted, so the sugar house the next afternoon was quite crowded. The young people were soon sent to find clean snow for the pans that were to receive the hot sugar. Portly matrons arranged, on a long pine table, forks, pickles, dough- nuts and sandwiches, where all could help themselves. MT. Merrill had the syrup boiling in an iron kettle and it was ready for the snow, as the young people laughing and talking entered the house
 Its too nice to stay in. Let's eat outdoors, someone suggested, and soon the merry group were seated on impro- vised seats around the table enjoying the delicious hot sugar.
 For Ruth, the party held no pleasure, although no one would have guessed the

thought they knew it ail they'd have none O me. So built the wall about what was mine. The timbers in the gate are six inches through. The dogs would tear any one to pieces that tried to enter. Little Joan is here-you and your wife are welcome-but not another man, woman or child shall ever enter the garden. Not one, not one, not one" The cane tapped on the wide porch as Old Jacob paced up and down, but the minister did not give up.
 They are arresting the boys caught with balls ill the street and sending many of them to reformatories, making criminals instead of good citizens Of them. If you had a son.
 Not one man, woman or childr" in terrupted Old Jacob sternly, and the minister arose with hopeless sign.
 As Old bacob watched him disappear down the path Joers words rang in his ears, If he had a son" How many times he had said it! How many times he had dreamed of son that might have been! Because the thought hurt him, Old Jacob walked out of the gar den into the streets of the city he hated.

of suddenly and reached in the inner pocket of his coat. Here are some of the letters Why did you return them?"
 They never reached me" she told him simply, while her heart was singing in happy accompaniment to her thoughts. Aunt Caroline and I only stay here in the summer time. We live on plan tation way down South. She has always told me that men were attentive to me because they knew father left me a for tune. So when we began coming up here for the summers l made Up my mind to dress and live simply so that nobody would know anything about me. This year-merely because I thought you went away without a word believ- ing me poor and perhaps beneath you socially-I took rooms at the hotel to show of like a siYfy child. fl you came back"
 He was up, around t- table and had taken her into his arms before she could finish her amazing story. Oh, my dear, let's be married and have our honey moon right here in the cottage-without even our dear Aunt Caroline for a chap erone!"

night to take care of the sap from the large orchard. During this time Roger did not see Hazel, Ruth's friend, but news travels quickly in rural communi- ties where everyone IS interested in city visitor, particularly one so pretty and seemingly unable to do anything useful, as Hazel was. So Roger, during the busy week, heard many rurnors of her conquests, and how she didn't even make up her own bed, or get up until nearly noon" But this only add ed fuel to the flame.
 "Of course," Roger reasoned, ''she is dreadfully misunderstood. She wasn't used to country ways, and whoever would expect such Q dainty little person to work? It was preposterous." And as soon as the rush season was over, he again spent all his spare time at Ruth's house, calling on Hazel.
 Hazel had never attended a sugar party in a Vermont sugar house, so 1t was Rogers pleasure to give one for her.
 "Of course" agreed Mir Merrill
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1919-04-12

"Oh, can't" she cried, covering heR face with her hands. 'I just can't look at horrible things. They make me faint. I couldn't help; and why should l? ?" she asked, angrily. If Roger hadn't been careless he wouldn't have been burned,
 As soon as Rogers hands entered the water the burning pain stopped, only to enter his heart His idol had fallen. He tried to make excuse for Hazeps con- duct; but he knew there was none. Then his eyes rested on the dark head bent so Compassionately over him. He gazed at the small brown fingers work ing so carefully and skiIfully at his wounds. Bending his head nearer the dark one, he whispered
 ''Ruth, dear. can you ever forgive me?"
 Joy again entered Ruth's heart as her eyes for one moment met his.
 Forgive you? There is nothing to forgive" Then as the kindly matrons entered the sugar house, she said: "We must hurry and make these dear hands well"

evaporator was well filled with cedar and birch logs, doing their best to con vert the sap into syrup and filling the house with its sweet spring aroma.
 Miss Mason Is the prettiest girl I've ever seen" said young Roger Merrill to himself, as he mechanically turned the faucet that let the sap into the evap- orator from a huge tank in the corner. q don't know when I've seen a girl I liked so well at the first meeting. How pretty she looked when she tried to pull the candy with her small hands It was real fun to help her. Her hands are just like rose petals, so soft and pink. wonder Ruth has never had her here before" The thought of Ruth gave Rog- CT a pang of remorse, for hadn't he and Ruth been supposedly sweethearts since slhool days?
 Well, Roger, guess we still have to hustle some to keep ahead of the trees, said Mir Merrill, entering the sugar house. Tt looks and feels like we were in for good run of sap. Have good time at the party last night" he con

tinued
 ''Yes, very" answered Roger, turning off the faucet and smiling at the vision of a fluffy golden head.
 Meet Ruth's new friend?"
 ''Yes! And Dad" said Roger, eager ly, "she is the prettiest and most charm ing g.ri I've ever seen"
 "H-m," said Mir Merrill, stroking his chin and looking at his son. I'm glad you had a good time and admire Ruth's friend, but boy she'll have to go some to beat Ruth
 "Ruth's all right" hastily said Roger, and then wishing to change the conver- sation. Shall go and empty the buck cts or finish off the syrup?"
 You empty the buckets, son. I'll do better at the syrup yet, though you are college graduate"
 "All right, Dad,' said Roger as he started, his mind still dwelling on the charms of Ruth's friend.
 The predicted run of sap proved true, and for week Roger, his father and hired men worked practically day and
