Sure Way To Get
Rid of Dandruff

There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that is to dissolve IL. This de-
stroys 1t entirely. To do this, just get
about four ounces of plain, ordinary
iiquid 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 IL not all of your
dandrun will be gone, and three or
four more applications will com
pletely dissolve and entirely destroy
every single sign and trace of IL, no
matter how much dandruff you may
have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging OF the scalp will stop
instantly. and your hair will be fluffy,
iustrous. glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store, and four ounces is all you
Will need. This simple remedy has
never been known to ofail-Adve rtise-

Government by Parties Essential,
He Says, in Address at
Philadelphia.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


PHILADELPHIA, January 10
Coming out flatfootedly in favor OF a
return to the party convention
method of nominating members of
Congress and other officers. Senator
Ball of Delaware, republican. in a
speech at the annual banquet of the
Military Order of Foreign Wars here
last night attacked the direct pri-
maries, predicting that they were
undermining the republic.
Senator Ball threw down the
gauntlet to the so-Called progressive
bloc In Congress, which has announc-
ed its intention of spreading the di-
rect primary as a means of nominal
ing President and Vice President, as
well as members of Congress through
out the land.
The Delaware senator insisted that
the government of the United States,

government by parties, the party in
control always being held respon-
Sible for the results He said that
1t had been his experience and obser-
walton that the direct primary, by
breaking down party ties. was max
ing it impossible for a majority party
TO iegislate and keep its platform

Senator Ball. lin the integrity and
wisdom of the majority of the Ameri-
can people. and If the direct primary
enabled tho majority of a party to
nominate their candidates. | would be
an advocate of and loyalty support
that method of making nominations.
But in practice we find the majority
of the party in generally defeated.
and that a minority makes these
nominations. =
IF there were but two candidates
for any particular office. then one or
the other. of course. would receive
the majority hut in practice we find
there are generally many more than
two candidates. and frequently the
man receiving the plurality. and thus
the nomination, will not receive more
than one-third or one-fourth of the
total vote. We find further that the
loyal party supporters, the people
who believe in the principles adopted
by that party at its national Conven-
tion, and for which it has stood for
the years past. divide their vote
among three or four candidates
representing the party principles,
while probably one candidate, pro-
Crat, but whose principles differ from
either party, will receive the solid
support of a class which frequently
is sufficient to make the nomination
over any of the true. loyal men. Thus
the will of the majority is defeated
and the minority representative be-
comes the candidate"
