The Easiest Way
to End Dandruff
There is one sure way i lia I never
tails 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, ordinary
liquid arvnn: apply it at night when
retiring. Use enough to moisten the
si nip and rub it in gently with the
finger tips.
By morning, most ir not all, of your
dandruff will is- gone, and three or
four more applications will completely
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 in
stantly. and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, anil
look and feel a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store, it is Inexpensive, and
four ounces is all you will need. This
simple remedy lias never been known
to fall.

To the Families of Men in the Military Service of
the United States;
Congress has passed a law requiring men in the
military service to make certain allotments out of
their salaries to their wives and children. It per
mits them to make allotments to other near rela
tives. The government agrees to add certain al
lowances to these allotments.
The act further provides for compensation to
men who are disabled in the service and permits in
surance to be taken out for the benefit of the men
and their dependents.
You are probably not familiar with your rights
under the law.
The Missoula Chapter of the Red Cross will
gladly furnish you information and advice in regard
to these matters, free of charge. For this purpose
an office will be open in the courthouse every
Thursday evening at 8 o'clock. This office will be
the room just west of the office of the county su

The Hume Service Section of the Red Cross will

25 NAMES ENROLLED
IN PUBLIC RESERVE
Skilled Mechanics Join
Branch First Day.
The first day of the week's drive to
enroll men in the public service re
serve has resulted in 25 applications
for membership In that branch of the
service. VV. F. Cobban, local enrolling
agent, with offices at the chamber of
commerce building, reports that all the
men who have applied are skilled
workmen, ranging from carpenters to
iron workers of every description. The
majority of the men who applied are
mechanics in the employ of the Dyer
Construction company, the company
which had charge of tHe construction of
the Great Western Sugar plant in this
city,
"I regard this enrollment in the pub
lic sere-ice reserve merely as a form
of introduction to the government of
men skilled in particular trades." said
Mr. Cobban. "When a man enlists In
this service he is assisting the gov
ernment in getting a line on the num
ber of men available for work in tho
various branches of the government in
dustrial work. The enrollment is not
a binding instrument and the applicant
is free to accept or reject any offers
of employment from the government."

success.
