Sure WAY to Get Rid Of Dandruff

There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that is TO dissolve it. Then you
destroy it entirely. To do this, Just
get about four ounces of plain, or
binary liquid arvon; apply it at
mig hit 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 two or
three more applications will COM
pletely dissolve 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. and your hair will be
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and

He cited many figures from Rus

we're nearly all for the years 1918 to
1921. He read a report Of well known
Russian physician about the terrible
conditions In the hospitals. but he
failed to give the date of the report
or to mention the blockade in connec'
ton with this. He charged the work

breaking up the home by making d.

that thousands Of young workers are

buck, and other mail order houses.
The league demands that this ex-
ploitation Of the youth Of Illinois must
stop.
Miners Taken from School.
In the mining towns of Illinois the
young workers are expected to follow
the trade Of their fathers and enter
the mines. most Of the towns having
only the one industry. These lads
must work underground when their
bodies are still uniformed and their
minds immature. During periods of
unemployment, the government ne.
elects the youth Of Illinois. The min
ers are forced to loiter on the streets
because no provision has been made
for them to attend school.
Paid t7Ks Cents an Hour.
In BelviGere. Illinois, the National
Sewing Machine company, employing
one thousand workers, pays the youth
employed by them seventeen and one.
half cents an hour. This company
manufactures washing machines and
sewing machines for the Montgomery
e Ward company, in large quantities.
Thus while entire families in BeIve
dere are forced into industry by the
lew wages, the Montgomery Ward
company makes millions Of dollars out
OF the profits Of the toll wracke6
bodies OF the young workers. The
profits OF the Montgomery Ward mail
order house, because of the extensive
exploitation Of young labor, were the
largest in history during the year Just
ended. Net profits of the company
last year were $10,4S3,5O1, after mil
lions had been paid out in dividends
to the millionaire stockholders. This
money was taken from the exploited
young workers of Belvedere, earning
TN cents an hour, and from the
thousands of young workers employed
in the Montgomery Ward factories in
Chicago.
Demand Voice In Industry.
The Workers Communist Party
calls the attention of the Illinois leg
isiature to these conditions, and de.
mands that not only the federal child
labor amendment be ratified, but that
effective means be Immediately taken
to end the widespread exploitation of
thousands Of Illinois young workers.
