BREED THEATRE.

If it is reasonable 10 judge q picuTa'f success by tie attendalc- i draws. Tna Mollycoddle, Douglas Fairba nks' latest production for United Artists Co4 3oralion which is at the Breed theatre today and Saturday, is destined to quality as sensation. People in droves awaited en- trance to see the production after the first performance and from adNices from other communities, simI.ar conditions prevail.
 The production is typical of Fairbanks. The star does the things he knows by past experience that he is most success ful in doing. His smile is ever there. His theme has real worth. The story is the type that has pleased in the past and the spirit of the whole thing is the whole some Fairbanks spirit.
 The production is unusual chiefly by reason of the huge outlay of fun that has accompanied it's making. There are countless sets, every one of them involv- ing great expenditure of money and made with careful regard to detail. There are exceptional exterior scenes. There is excellent photography master ly cutting and a resulting continuity that prevents the least momentary drop in in tereSt.

Sure Way To Get
 Rid Of Dandruff

There is one sure way that has never failed to remove dandruff at once, and that is to dissolve it, then you destroy it entirely. To do this, just get about four ounces of plain, common liquid arvon from any drug store (thls is all you will need), &oplY 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 completely dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it, no matter how much dandruff you may have.
 You will find all itching and digging of the scalp will stop instantly, and your hair will .Se fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better
 You can get liquid arvon at any drug storef It is inexpensive, and four ounces is all you will need. This sim pie remedy has never been known to fail.
