Parasites of Animal Life

Many are the parasites which attack
the live stock, and, while they are
known, very small percentage of them
are understood. Their life histories are
unknown, and until the information
concerning them is supplied it will be
difficult to overcome them. The para
site diseases are about as important as
bacterial diseases, but it is more DIM
cult to see the damage caused by them.
1t is much easier to see the loss from

denly and cause severe losses at the

DANDRUFF
A Sure Way to End 1t

There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely,
and that is to dissolve it. This de-
stroys it entirely. TO do this, just
get about four ounces of plain, ordl-
nary liquid arvon; apply it at night
when retiring; use enough to moist
en- 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 dandruf you
may have.
You will find, too, that all itch
ing and digging of the scalp will
stop instantly, and your hair will
be fluffy. lustrous, glossy. silky and
soft, and look and feel hundred
times better
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store and four ounces is all
you will need. This simple remedy
never fails. Advertisement.

Stray cats have become so numer- ous in Bethlehem that some of the townspeople are urging action in the matter. The matter has been brought to the attention of Representative E. P. Osborne, who being veter- marian as well as legislator. is sup posed to know how to solve all prob lems relating to pets. It is claimed that business depression has forced some of the city people to dispose of their pets and one Waterburian was seen letting a cat out or his sedan on Main street a few days ago. This incident is the foundation for the belief that the city people are turning lose their pets in town, ex- pecting the kind hearted country folk will take the waifs in and give them a comfortable home. But If the business keeps up a public place of execution will have to be provid- ed. The waifs continue to increase daily.

 ORIGINAL ANDRE LETTER.

Lawrenceville, Ill., The original
 letter that Major John Andre wrote
 to George Washington during the
 revolution, asking he be shot to
 death, and not hanged as a spy. Is reported to be in possession of an
 oil company employe here, Herbert Taylor.
 Taylor, whose hobby is collecting historic old documents, believes the letter the authentic original and claims he purchased itfrom New orleans man. who obtained it from contractor, who vouches for the story that it was hidden in a house attic, and stolen by vandals from the national capital after the war of 1872.
 The letter in part reads: sympathy toward a soldier will surely induct your Excellency and a military tribunal to adapt the
 made of my death to the feelings of
 a man of honor.
 Let me hope. sir, that if aught | in my character impresses you with esteem towards me, if aught in my misfortunes marks he as the within of policy or resentment, I shall ex- | perience the operation of these feel. ings in your breast by being inforni- | ed that am not to die on the ibbet."
