DANDRUFF SURELY
DESTROYS THE HAIR

x X x x X X X X X X x x X X
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 complete
ly dissolve 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 hun
ared times better. You can get liquid
aryon at any drug store. 1t is mex
pensive and four ounces is all you
win need, no matter how much dan
druff You have. This simple remedy
never fails.

ests would want to move the whole
department to Portland.
Most of the Multnomah senators
worked hard for the bill, but they were
outvoted by the upstate members.
''If you pass this bill now, two years
from now bill will be introduced to
move the whole insurance department
to Portland" predicted Senator Eddy
He referred to the statements that
had been made that the insurance
agents and the 'insuring public" want
ed branch office in Portland for theii
accommodation, and then reminded the
senators that two years ago the legis
lature passed 2n insurance code which
the insurance interests wanted and
thereby established an insurance mo
nopoly in the state.
"All the insurance people now
want" he said, sis to move the insur.
ance commissioner to Portland where
they will have him under their eye"
Senator Patterson was the first sen.
ator to take crack at the bill, by de
claring that it ought not to pass.
"This practice of dividing the state
offices should STOP he insisted. "This
bill is an entering wedge for building
up big department in Portland, with
more clerks and stenographers on the
state payroll, 1t is bad bill'
ga branch office might be OF more

but it would be an unnecessary ex-
pensc, contended Senator smith OF
Coos tIt might be more convenient
to move the office of secretary of state
to Portland, but that is no reason why
it should be done.
Senator Moser, Senator Banks and
Senator Pierce favored the bill. Sem
ator Moser denied that there was any
inteAtion to move the whole insurance
department to Portland, and said there
WIS no cause for Senator Patterson to
worry.
Resorting to sarcasm, Senator Banks
said the Multnomah senators had no
intention of running off with the state
house, but they did think that the in.
surance men in Portland should be ac.
commodated by having branch of the
insurance department located there.
AS all the insurance agents of his
home town had signed petition in sup
port of the bill, Senator Pierce said he
would have to favor it.

Senator Smith of Coos
senator Pierce replied by asking how
much would the branch office cost the
state. He said he was informed that
the additional cost would be offset by
the additional fees the insurance com

Tell me, We winged winds
That round my pathway roar,
Do you not know some spot
Where mortals want no more;
Where the rich are so uncharitable,
And the poor are satisfied,
Where life is free from envy,
From se1fishness and pride;
Where no one is compelled to work

And life is all summers day

With such lovely face,
Who sees the whole world over

Where the doctors know their business
And the sick folks all get WE'LL

And eggs the same per dozen
And some of them unsound;
And "yaller-legged" chickens
Worth their meaty weight in gold,

And milk, when you can get it,
Is oft times very pale,
And light bread by the single loaf
