! This destroys it entirely. To do
this. just get about four ounces of
plain, ordinary liquid arvon; ap-
4 ply it at might 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 dRndruff will be gone, and
three or four more applications
will completely dissolve and en-
tirely destroy every single sign
and trace of it, no matter how
much dandruff you may have.

League Protests Proposal for Ma

A protest against the resolution re-
Gently introduced by Senator Lodge
Of Massachusetts,, favoring the es-
tablishment in Palestine of Ma
tional home for the Jewish people,
has been sent to members of the
Senate foreign relations committee
by the Palestine National League,

to the fact that a large percentage
of the people living in Palestine are
non-Jewish. Palestine, it says, lis
the national home Of the Palestin-
ians."
The letter continues:
saThe Jews occupied Palestine for
about $50 years. ending with the
Maccabees, while the present in
habitants are descended from a
stock which was in the land before
the Jews invaded it. and have re-
mained in 1t long after the Jews
ceased to be a nation. To use the
argument of Premier Lloyd George,
