The Easiest Way
To End DandruffI

There is one sure way that never fails
to remove dandruff completely and that
is to dissolve 1t. This destroys it en-
tirely. 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 completely dis
solve and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace Of it, no matter how
much dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching and
digging of the scalp will stop instantly,
arc your hair will be fluffy, lustrous,
glossy. silk 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 is all you will need. This simple
iremedy has never been known to fall

LEEHEY SAYS TONNAGE TAX
 IS NOT SEVERE
Counsel For Shipping Board Explains For Fisheries Bu- reau Effects of Measure

Maurice D. Leehay, Special Counsel for the Shipping Board submitted the following Memorandum to the Bureau Of Fisheries, explanatory of the pro posed shipping legislation:
 'l refer 10 the charge that the pro posed g per net ton license tax on Alaska shipping will be an excessive burden on the private ships operated hy the large salmon packers.
 It will not. It will average about 50 cents per ton on all freight hand led in purate ships. Those ships can well afford to pay it because they are operated at so much less expense than the regular lines. and they make trips to Alaska only during the busy season with practically full cargoes. They now contribute nothing to the year round service for the common benefit
 The Pacific American Fisheries in 1919 oTerate private ships of 4,72S net tons. SO the license tax would have been $14,1S4 Those ships carried that year 3,S01 passengers and 6I.G13 tens of freight The tax would mean aa additional cost of S1 per passenger and IS cents per ton of freight.
 The Alaska Packers Association Pacific American Fisheries and Libby. McNcil and Libby in 1919 operated private ships of 40,243 net tons, so the license tax would be $l20,729 The first named two carried 11.G13 passengers. The number carried by Libby McNeil and Libby is not stated but the total must have exceeded 15,000 and the ships of the three lines 145,145 tons of freight. This would amount to an additional cost of $l per passenger and 72 cents for each ton of freight. It is really not tax at all but a reasonable charge for the year-round service for the comon benefit. Nobody should object to it. As well might large land owner object to road or school tax.
 "The proposed license tax will act ually benefit the salmon industry in Alaska because it will give lower rates to all the smaller operators who cannot afford to have their own private ships. The large packers should not object to paying a reason able contribution to the year round service for the common benefit These large salmon packers would be put to much greater expense if there were no regular lines al all and they had to make their own operators now receive both directly provisions for the service these largo and indirectly from the regular lines It will be admitted that 9 somewhat different condition exists in Bristol Bay but the proposed plan will au tholize the Alaska Territorial Ship ping Board to contract for satisfac- tory reguler service on that route. Indeed it is the purpose of our plan to support by contract proper service on such routes that are now unprofit able"

Start Tomorrow
 and Keep It Up
 Every Morning
Get In the habit of drinking a glass of hot water before
 breakfast.

We're not here long, so let's make our stay agreeable. Let us live well, eat well, digest well, work well, sleep well, and look well. What a glorious condition to attain, and yet, how very easy it is if one will only adopt the morning inside bath.
 Folks who are accustomed to feel dull and heavy when they arise. splitting headache, stuffy from a cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach, can, instead, feel as fresh as a. daisy by opening the sluices of the system each morning and flushing out the whole of the inter- nal poisonous stagnant matter
 Everyone, whether ailing, sick or we'll. should, each morning, before breakfast. drink a glass of real hot water with teaspoonful of lime stone phosphate in it to wash from the stomach. liver and bowels the previous days indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxins; thus cleansing, sweeteping and purifying the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. The action, of hot water and lime stone phosphate on an empty stom- ach is wonderfully inyigorating. It cleans out all the sour fermenta- tions, gases. waste and acidity and gives one splendid appetite for breakfast. While you are enjoying your breakfast the water and phos- phate is quietly extracting a large volume of water from the blood and getting ready for a thorough flush- ing of all the inside organs
 The millions of people who are bothered with constipation, bilious spells, stomach trouble; others who have sallow skins. blood disorders and sickly compilations are urged to get quarter pound of limestone phosphate from the drug store. This will cost very little, but is sui 'icient to make anyone a pronounc- d crank on the subject of inside before breakfast.

 ERE ST -L|TOVSK IS WORRYING GERMANS
Trotzky's Emissary Sperads BoIshevik Propaganda-For- eign Minister Warns
 Reichstag
By Associated Press

Rerfin December 19.-Victor kopp, the Russian soviet representative in Berlin, has been working under written instruc- tions from Minister of War Trotzky Ito do everything in his power to bring throw the present government. 1t is charged by the pan-German Deutsche Zietung in tonight's issue.
 A photographic copy of Trotzkys lets ter with instructions to this effect, IS TOW in possession of the foreign minister, Dr. Simons, the newspaper says, ana II makes a demand for the immediate ex- puIsion or arrest of the soviet represen- tative.
 According to the newspapers informa- tion the letter was written during the victorious march of the bolshevik armies toward Warsaw. Since then, declares the article, Kopp has had every oppor- tunity to visit the Russian prison camps in Germany where 10000 Russians are captured during the war and the re- n ainder interned after the bolshevik drive into Poland when numbers of Russians were forced to cross the Ger man border by the Polish counter drive.
 The charges against Kopp were made in connection with national interpeia- tion in the Reichstag which charged that the free and easy" manner in which tha Germans were managing the Rus sian prison camps under the imperial department offered a fertile field for propaganda. pr. Simonds declined to go into details before the Reichstag, but said the evidence against Kopp was in sufficient to warrant government action The interpolation. however. resulted in an order that these camps hereafter be under the authority of the ministry oi defense.
 The Kreuz Zietung and the Deutsche Zietung have been hammering the ad- rninistration steadily for several weeks on the ground that the Russian pris- oners in Germany, ''in reality formed a body guard for Kopp.i and they alleged that bolshevik> propagandists in every camp have been working virtually un- molested.
