Dandruffy Heads Become Hairless If you want plenty of thick, beauti-j ful, glossy, silky hair, do by ail means get rid of dandruff, for it will starve your hair and ruin it if you don't. It doesn't do much good to try to brush or wash it out. The only sure way to get rid of dandruff is to dissolve it, then you destroy it entirely. To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid Arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. -y By morning most, if r.ot all, of your dandruff will be gone, and two or three more applications will com-1 pletely dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it.

You will find, too, that all Itching and digging at the scalp will stop, and your hair will look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store. Four ounces is all you need, not matter how much dandruff you have. This simple remedy never fails. (Advertisement.

Like each of these already familiar studies, her "Our Capital On the Potomac" evidences thorough research. Vashington life from the prehistoric days before subjects of King Powhatan roamed the Pototnac's banks, till the closing hours of the second Wilson Administration is set out entertainingly, informingly and with no lit.tle illumination. Comprehensively conceived. the work is executed with a nice of proportion and a discriminating appreciation of major and minor characters as well as of major and minor incidents in the Capital's history.

Thu personal factor in the equation" is happily stressed, the anecdotal given dramatic emphasis, the incidental and even accidental, as well as the eventful phases of the town's development are picturesquely portrayed. In style the book has the quality of sustained charm. As a study in America's social and political life, Miss Xicolay's work is well worthwhile. In some respeeus it is perhaps the best mirror of the wide field it attempts to cover that may be had, though particular periods of Washington's history are more intimately set out than in her work, notably, for example, in Bowers' "Party Battles of the Jackson Period," which may be profitably read collaterally with Miss Nicolay's tremendously interesting chapter, "King Andrew the First." Though occasionally error is made, as, for example, when Jefferson Davis is written down as Secretary of War in the Fillmore Administration, yet the book is exceedingly accurate when its wealth of detail is borne in mind. Portraits of men and women who stride through its pages are certainly vivid and probably as faithful as might be expected.

Pxcepting chapters dealing with years immediately before the War Between the States, and the aftermath of that war. the book is free of the partisan spirit, though Miss Nicolay has her prejudices as well as her preferences preferences and prejudices.it might be added, that are natural in one of her background of tradition and actual life environment. Her social goddesses, like her political gods, are unmistakably her own, even as her political devils and social Salomes arc; none other than her father's daughter's. Withal, the book is more than interesting in that it is essentially delightful, particularly so in the reveal-ings it gives of her own sex's subtile and at time subtle, not to say sinister, influence in Washington life, not merely of late, but almost from the first hour of the capital's existence.

A curious item of interest to and ends hunters is "George Horton. the Negro Poet," a slight brochure by Coliier Cobb and privately printed by him at Chapel Hill, N. C. Horton, it seems, was a slave born in 179S who paid his master CO cents a day for his own time and then eked out his existence writing love verse and album mottoes for his own young masters, the students at the University of North Carolina. A quarter seems to have been the standard rate for a moderate length and moderately fer- vent love-poem; for 50 cents Horton waxed passionate, as witness this stanza from "love:" "Whilst tracing thy visage, I sink lr.
