Sure Way to Get
Rid Of Dandruf

There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that is to dissolve it. This de-
stroys it entirely. To do this, just get
about four ounces of plain, 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 1t, no matter
how much dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging Of the scalp will stop in
stantly, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive, and
-FOUR ounces ls all you Will need. This
simple remedy has never been known
to fail.

ARMY COULD NOT
PROVE MINOR CASE

Robert A Minor, journalist, was re-
leased by American military authori-
ties in Paris because OF lack OF evil
dence against him, Secretary OF War
Baker has informed the Senate.
Minor was arrested on charges of cir
culating Bolsheyistic propaganda
among American troops in the army
Of occupation.
He was released without trial for
lack OF evidence to substantiate the
charges" General Pershing informed
the War Department, according to
Bakers communication. Investigation
by the judge advocate general of the
A. Z. F. resulted in recommendation
that the charges be dropped, the
latter stated
Investigating officers said they
would not be willing to convict Minor
on the evidence obtained, but would
urge that he be brought to trial If
corroborative witnesses could be
found Failing in this, Minor was
released, the report said.
The case had better not be tried
at all unless there is proof which fully
warrants conviction" the report con-
tinues, declaring that to attempt a
trial which might in result in ac-
quittal would "be injurious to the
cause of good government" as Bolshe-
Wiki in America were watching the
case closely, the report continued.
Bakers communication was in re-
sponse to a Senate resolution intro
duce by Senator King OF Utah, ask
ing why the United States had per
mitted Minors release.
