Combing Won't Rid
Hair OF Dandruff

The only sure way to get rid of
dandruff is to dissolve it, then you
destroy 1t entirely. To do this, get
about four ounces Of ordinary liquid
arvon; apply it at night when retir-
ing: use enough to moisten the scalp
and rub it in gently with the finger
tips.
Do this tonight, and by morning.
most If not all, of your dandruff will
be gone. and three or four more an
plications will completely 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 at
once. and your hair will be fluffy. lus-
trous. glossy, silky and soft, and look
and feel hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. It is inexpensive and
never fails to do the work.-Adv.

A New Crusade?

Heretofore whenever a nation has
attempted to set up new system of
government for itself. it has reck-
oned that task sufficient to occupy
tor recognition of its government
from other nations. The French rev.
olutionists did not try to foist their
rev ideas and theories upon Eng
land or Spain or Japan or any other
place, except as segments of terri
tory might have been conquered by
military expeditions. The makers Of
the United States Constitution did
net concentrate their energies on die
tating other constitutions for Siam
and Patagonia, but devoted them
selves to making practical applica-
ton of the principles which they be-
lieved necessary to the establish
ment of the government of the Unit
ed States. If they considered Siam
and Patagonia at all, they merely de-
cided that those countries had gov
ernments already established and
that it was entirely outside the prov
ince of foreigners to interfere, no
matter how excellent theories they
might produce.
Not so the bolsheviki. Never be-
fore in the worlds history has a
worldwide crusade been deliberately
begun to overthrow all established
governments and remodel them all
according to one pattern, even
though, the several nations be al
lowed to. retain their separate enti-
ties. Not only the governments but
the social and economic systems as
well, must be overhauled to meet the
soviet requirements. Time and again
religious bodies have undertaken to
bSing the entire world to their way
Of worship, and have employed all
manner Of means to that end, as wit
ness the military aggression of the
Saracens in the seventh century,
when they overran Asia Minor and
North Africa and entered Spain.
II bolshevism has a distinct re-
ligious phase, that phase is being
carefully hidden until such time an
the way is paved politically and So
cially. as it's adherents hope, to bring
1t to the fore. And it is growing in
creasingly evident that there is at
least some connection between boil
shevistic endeavor and the followers
OF one Of the worlds Oldest religions.
This may eventually become appar-
ent to the naked eye and explain the
fervor with which the bolshevik the
cries are being advanced.
Men become fanatical and their
ardor burns over the propagation of
religion. whereas they are philosophic
and contemplative regarding systems
OF politics and economies.

Not AT One" With Himsejf

Anyone who has concluded there
is no interest in the discussion of the
League of Nations might have ar
rived at different decision had he
been privileged to listen to the
speech of Judge Maher before the
Augusta Republican Club. Monday
evening. The speaker dwelt for
nearly an hour on this subject and
held the closest attention through
out his able and informing discourse.
A feature of his argument consist
cd in convicting Woodrow Wilson BY
the nib Of his own pen. In Woodrow
Wilson's "A History of the American
People" Volume 4. page 1o2 may be
found this which Wilson wrote re-
specting a matter of history which
practically parallels his later expert
ence with the Senate:
In April 1874, President Tyler sent
to the Senate Treaty of Annexation
which he had negotiated with Texas.
Secret negotiation. piece of business
privately carried to completion and
made public only when finished. suited
well with the Presidents temper and
waysbf acton. A man naturally Sc
cretive, naturally fond, not of con-
ceatment. but of quiet, subtle man.
agement, not insincere, but indirect
in bis ways of approach, he relished
statecraft Of this sort. The Senate
rejected the treaty by the very de-
cisive vote of is to 35. Men of both
parties alike. were. deeply irritated
that the President should spring this
veaShty matter upon the country in
such a fashion, taking no counsel be-
forehand. save such as he chose to
take"
It VIA be well to read that last
clause carefully. Men Of both par
ties alike, were deeply irritated" etc.
Evidently Wilson in the dispassionate
writing Of that history saw clearly
the relations existing between the ex-
ecutave and the legislative branches
OF the government. saw the need of
maintaining those relations. sympa-
thised with the attitude Of the Sem
ate. saw that level-headed men of

Too Greedy.

The reports from New York on the
sugar situation indicate conditions of
decentralization in the market, the
impression being that consumers
have overbought and in some in
stances confectioners are said to be
trying to unload their top-heavy
stocks. Without much strain on the
conscience one may hope all of those
who assisted in boosting the price
are now underneath. Some probably
are. The keeping up of the price has
discouraged many from doing the
canning they otherwise would have
done, and so defeated the designs of
those bolstering; in other words they
have stumbled over their own greed,
after doing lot of mischief.

Why Physicians Recommend
Magnesia For Dyspeptics

Take little magnesia after meals"
is now a favorite dyspepsia prescrip-
ton among thousands. The reason
for this lies in the fact that practi-
cally ninety per cent of all stomach
troubles is due to acid which irritates
and inflames the delicate mucous MEM
brane lining of the stomach and makes
natural digestion impossible. Medi-
cnes. drugs and diets all fail simply
because they do not remove the acid.
the cause of all the trouble. The
value of magnesia, which is neither a
medicine nor a drug in the ordinary
meaning of these words lies in the
fact that it neutralizes the acid or
the many forms of magnesia such as
the oxides, carbonates, milks and
fluids, the best is undoubtedly Bis
urated Magnesia. teaspoonful or four
tablets of which in a little hot water.

ACID, stops the fermentation of the
food and thus insures painless, natural
digestion. Pure Bisurated Magnesia
can be obtained from any reliable
druggist and stomach sufferers should
give it a trial.-Adv.
