means get rid Of dandruff. for 1t will
starve your Nhair and ruin It II you
don't.
It doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash u out The only sure
way to get rid Of dandruff Is to dis
solve it. then you destroy it entire

of ordinary liquid arvon; apply 1t at
night when retiring; use enough to
moisten the scalp and rub it in gent
~ with the finger tips.
BY morning, most II not all, of
your dandruff will be gone, and three
or four more applications will COM
pletely dissolve and entirely destroy
every single sign and trace OF 1t.
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 rem

as well as for the maintenance of ma
ttonal discipline among Themselves
Sir Auckland said that Lincoln best
epitomized the best form of govern
ment the human race had been able
to devise-as "by the people, for the
people" but. he added, Il wonder
how many realize what tremendous
revolution this relatively new idea is
producing in all human relationships,
, or even how new the idea itself is
and how little 1t has been tested.
Only triflinS minority OF the
| peoples of the world understand 1t.
| doubt IL oven In Europe there is a
majority which supports 1t. certainly
there Is not a majority which under
| stands It. I would like to be con-
WINGED that there was majority
| really understandingly In favor of it
in the British Isles.
IF the Idea Is to continue without
serious setback. we people who be-
beve In 1t will have to stand firmly
together for there are powerful for
ces opposed to 1t. So far as we know,
the millions OF Asia have opposed the
idea turnout all their history. altho
a small number Of Asiatics are now
loud In It's support. Islam necessa riIy
is opposed to It,. The boisheviki are
naturally violently opposed to it. So
too is everyone who has what he re-
CARDS as a big idea or great principle
OF incalcuable good which he or she
wishes to force upon the people
whether they wish 1t or no.
Theocracy and autocracy, ferceful
application OF the big idea. inevitab-
ly lead to inequality before the law
and so to tyranny, revolution and
chaos or to decadence. conquest and
chaos. That way lies no hope. Let the
bolsheviki and their supporters in all
lands pirate as they will OF reaction
les and imperialists. They, them
selves are the reactionaries. Their
admitted doctrine is to establish a.
privileged class which they call the
proletarlat but they mean by that
term a select body OF their own sup
porters. Their whole creed Is to force
on society n great idea which has
been revealed to them and to them
alone; and, like It or dislike 1t, So
ciety Is to swallow 1t whole-and
that is nothing but pure theocracy.

Comprehensive Legislative Reforms
Considered by Lawyers.
By Associated Press.
St Louis, Aug. 25.-Comprehensive
legislative reforms were before the
American Bar Association for con-
sideration as the organization con-
rened in annual session here today.
The proposed changes. covering a
wide range, were presented in re-
ports submitted by various commit
tees. They tended in part toward
uniformity for state IS and
modernizaton of certain Federal
court procedure.
Discussion Of M main.
tanning the standard OF the bar on
high level also promised to hold an
important place in the convention.
A report prepared by the commit
tee on professional ethics and griev-
ances. stated a canvass OF members
of the Judiciary turnout the United
States indicated that prevailing
sentiment favored the Incorporation
of the bars of various communities
with the Canon of Ethics as a part
of the constitution of the corporations
which would have full power to sup
ervise the conduct Of all practising
attorneys.
| In advocating legislation that would
empower the supreme court to pre-
| scribe rules for common law pro-
cedure in Federal courts. a report
from the committee on uniform judi
cial procedure stated this would have
the effect of doing away with long
drawn-out litigation. and would tend
to improve sta:e court procedure,
| thru the adoption Of the federal sys-
tenn as a model. This latter would
also mark an important step toward
unifying state statutes. the report ex-
| planned.
A further measure Of suggested re-
form urges amplification Of the law
governing removal of causes to def
nitely settle the question Of district
court jurisdiction.
1t is urged also by the committee
| on jurisprudence and law reform
that. legislation be enacted to provide
more adequate protection for the
treaty rights Of foreigners in the
United States.
The association will be called upon

report from the committee dissdnts.
Another report from a special com
mittee. declares that the interval be-
tween the election and inauguration

If an administration Is discredited by
a popular vote of want Of confidence,
the prestige Of the government at
home and abroad is weakened and
there is danger of humiliation and
disaster to the republic" This re-
port urges that the dates be brought
closer together. but makes no recon-
mfndations as to other dates. 1t also
advises abandonment of the short
session Of the retiring congress.
While the general convention is in
session. various sections OF the as

MAYS WHO PITCHED FATAL BALL,
HAS HIT FIFTY-FIVE PLAYERS

When members of the Boston and
Detroit American league baseball
clubs recently started an anti Mays
campaign, they started something
that will meet with the Endorsement
OF practically every American league
baseball player.
Eve, since Mays has been in the
American league he has had tho
reputation OF being n "bean ball"
pitcher. In other words, it was al
legged he would let drive with a
pitched ball that was calculated to
make the batsman dodge.
Against some pitchers who art
noted for their control. the batsmen
will stand close to the plate and even
take step or two forward in an ef-
for to hit the ball before the curve
breaks. Mays Is one OF group OF
pitchers who always has worked to
prevent any such familiarity with
his offerings.
He has worked on the theory that
IL now and then he threwN>~a swift
ball close to the batter. the batsman
would be cautious as to how close to
the plate he stood and the farther
the batter stood from the plate. the
easier II would be for pitcher to
retire him by throwing balls on the
outside That's why several pitch
ers have resorted TO the bean ball"
Walter Johnson once was asked
why he did not Use the "beaper" &C.
casionally. His reply was:
III l hit batter on the head, I
might XIII him.
Carl Mays entered the league In
1915. He hit five batsmen that year.
The following senson he hit nine. He
led the league pitchers in that re-
spect In 1917 by hitting fourteen. He
was second in 1918 when he hit elev-
en- and second In 1919 when he struck
ten. This year he struck six bats
