Here is another instance Of the
remarkable reconstructive powers of
Tanlac. Mr.. Carnahan is only one
of many thousands who have taken
lit with the same wonderful results.
.Tanlac proved of great benefit to him
because it contains cartain medicinal
properties which enrich the blood and
promote a healthy appetite for nour-
fishing food. Tanlac has been very
successful in overcoming nervousness
and sleeplessness, not from a quiet
ing effect on the nerves, for it has
mo such effect, but by strengthening
the nerves and bringing back the
normal state of health through its
effect on the appetite and nutrition
of the body.
Tanlac is sold in Keokuk by vii.

Dandruff Soon
Ruins The Hair

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 dissolve
it, then you destroy it entirely. To do
this, get about four ounces of ordinary
liquid arvon; apply it at night when re-,
firing; 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.
You will find, too, that all itching and
digging of the scalp will stop. and your
hair will look and feel a hundred times,
better. You can get liquid arvon at any,
drug store 1t is inexpensive and four
ounces is all you will need, no matter
how much dandruff you have. This
simple remedy never fails.

The daylight Sunday passenger
trains on the NJ. & st, L. are not to
be put back into service, at least not
for a time. This is the answer that
General Manager W. G. Bremner has
given to the petition Of the MARSHALL
town Club and commercial bodies OF
Mason City, Oskaloosa, Eldora and
other cities and towns that Joined in
to have this passenger serv-
ice restored. The reason given Is that
even before these trains were taken
off. after the United States declared
war, they were improbable.
Mr.. Bremner indicated that II con-
ditions in the business became normal
again that he would be glad TO con-
slider placing these trains back in
service. No definite promise. however
OF when this would be was given.
Trains Not Self Supporting.
General Manager Bremner went into
the question of this train service very
fully and explained why II was i'm
possible for the company TO consider
resuming the service. He said that
not only was the company losing
money under federal control. but that
these Sunday trains had not been self
supporting before they were taken off.
The cost OF operating the two pas
sengers, he said. was 1855 a round trip
and the fares never paid the cost Of
operation. They had been operated for
wears simply TO give service. but under
the present conditions the company
was not warranted in putting them
back into service.
