There is one sure way that has never
failed to remove dandruff at once, and
that Is to dissolve it, then you de
stroy it entirely. To do this, just

mon liquid arvon from any drug

ply It at night when retiring; use
enough to moisten th£ scalp and rub
it in gently with the linger tips.
By morning, most if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will completely
dissolve, and entirely destroy, every
single sign and trace of it, no mat
ter how much dandruff you may have.
Tou will find all Itching and digging

"Traffic in Souls" on
at Majestic Theater
The much talked of moving pic
tures, "Traffic in Souls," opened a
week's engagement at the Majestic
theater yesterday and although they
deal with a white slave story, there
was no outwy against them as in the
case recently with the "Inside of the
White Slave Traffic" pictures. The
pictures that were shown yesterday
attracted good sized audiences consid
ering the weather, and the comment
heard at the conclusion «4f each show
was almost entirely favorable to the
pictures.
The story told by these pictures
deals with the experiences of a sales
girl, who is lured from the candy shop
in which she Is employed, and en
snared by white slave trafficers who
endeavor to sell the girl into the
bondage of immorality. The girl's
plucky fight against her temptations,
and her final rescue and return home
give the picture a pleasant ending
that might otherwise seem harsh; but,
on the whole, it seemed to be the
Judgment of the audiences that the
pictures would do much good. These
pictures will be gven at the Majestic
every afternoon and twice each even
ing during the remainder of the week.

however, of Harry Compton, for whom

Sharp Comment Made
on Grey's Statement
By dissociated Press
London, Feb. 24.—Sharp cornmeiit
Is made by the Manchester Guardian
to-day on Sir Edward Grey's state
ment in the House of Commons yes
terday In regard to the killing of Wil
liam S. Benton at Juarez by General
Villa. The newspaper asks:
"Is it not mere playing with words
t.o say that in sucli a case the United
States has no responsibility? If that
were so the Monroe Doctrine would be
a mere instrument of international
anarchy, whereas the whole tendency
of President Wilson's policy has been
to make a force for order and good
government. If we are not responsi
ble, then the United States is. We
certainly do not wish to drive the
United States government into inter
vention, but it cannot deny to other
powers the right of defending their
interests and at the same time refuse
to defend them itself."
Sir Edward Grey, British foreign
secretary, told the House of Commons
to-day of the latest developments in
the Mexican situation.
He said Sir Cecil Spring-nice, Brit
ish ambassador at Washington, had
been instructed yesterday to inform
the United States Government, that
Great Britain considered it essential
for a British consul to visit the spot
where William S. Benton was killed
Consul Perceval at Galveston had
been selected for this purpose and
he was to supply the best reports pos
sible regarding Benton's death and
concerning the two missing English
men, Laurence and Curtis. Sir Cecil
was instructed to ask the United
States Government, as Great Britain
had 110 means of communicating with
General Villa and to request an assur
ance that the British consul should
not bo interfered with.
Heads Communication
Sir Edward Grey read a communi
cation from the State Department at
Washington to Sir Cecil Spring-Rice
which the British ambassador cabled
textually to the foreign office. It was
as follows:
"The State Department desires to
advise the British embassy that in
structions had been sent heretofore to
the American consul at Juarez to
make a most searching inquiry into
the circumstances attending the death
of William S. Benton. The consul has
been instructed to make every effort
to secure the exhumation and exam
ination of the body of the deceased,
to take the statements of any and
all of the witnesses whom he can find
to employ In his investigations med
ical and legal assistance as far as may
be desirable and to do everything in
his power to elicit the facts"
The comprehensiveness of tho Am
erican government's instructions
called forth hearty cheers in the
House of Commons.
Sir Edward Grey added that no re
ply had been received to his com
munication concerning Consul Per
ceval.
Nationalization of All
Oil Lands Is Planned
Mexico City, Feb. 24. —A plan for
the nationalization of all the oil lands
in Mexico is to be forced through the
next Mexican congress, which con
venes on April 1, according to an ad
mission made to-day by Querido Mo
heno, the head of the new cabinet
post of commerce and industry.
Senor Moheno says he presented the
plan whle he was yet a member oI
the Chamber of Deputies.
The report is current here that it is
the intention of the Federal govern
ment to transfer the oil lands to Lord
Cowdray for $50,000,000 gold after
they have been nationalized.
CARRANZA TELLS OF MURDER
C hicago, Feb. 24. —General Carran
za, leader of Mexican constitutional
ists, yesterday sent an explanation of
the Benton death to the foreign de
j partment of Armour and Company.
Translated, the message was:
"In answer to your message to-day:
'Benton attempted to kill general Villa,
whu disarmed him in accordance with
the law."

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
CASHIER OF BANK IS
APPOINTED JUSTICE
Name Was Not Previously Men
tioned and Appointment
Came as Surprise
W. H. AUSTINE
Special to The Telegraph
Dallastown, Pa., Feb. 24.—The ap
pointment of W. H. Austine, cashier
of the First National Bank, as a jus
tice of the peace, vice Z. S. Shaw, de
ceased, is the surprise of the week.
While there were several other appli
cations, Mr. Austine was not known
to be in the field. The former justice
held the office for 4 8 years and had
just been re-elected for six years more,
when he died from general debility.
The other justice is>. F. S. Barten
schl"ger, who is also the new county
controller. The question has arisen
whether he can hold both offices. He
is of the opinion he can. The matter
was put up to the Governor and he
said it was a matter of law if the of
fices were incompatible and would
have to be decided by the court. As
the question has never been submit
ted for a decision he is still filling both
offices and in case of a return of
any bill to the county from his office
of justice would necessarily have to
approve his own accounts.

a local committee. He will go from
there to Lykens, where he will remain
over night, coming here in the morn
ing to greet people who are coming to
meet him.
Not Talking Slate Politics
When asked If he had any stale
ment to make regarding his candi
dacy the senator said: "1 have nothing
to say about that at the present time.
I am simply going to Lykens to make
a speech."
The Mexican situation appeared to
interest the senator and he asked what
was new atjout it. He remarked that
the senators were getting impatient
and said that while everyone wants
the administration to be unhampered
in foreign affairs and to have full
opportunities, "yet when affairs are
mismanaged criticism is bound to
arise, it is incredible that the Ameri
can people have permitted the state
of affairs to continue as they are in
Mexico. The situation is well calcu
lated to start a storm of indignant
protest were the facts known. It is
evident that before long some mem
ber of the Senate will Insist upon the
facts being published and some defi
nite action be taken along practical
lines."
"There are a number of resolutions
before the Senate, including- one by
myself," he continued. "Now, no one
advocates Intervention in Mexico and
no one desires for one moment to
acquire one foot of Mexican territory.
But everyone familiar with the sit
uation demands that some action be
taken for protection of American men
f I*» I*l!»I •Iftl•l*> j•J• 5 * r -»]
lco. The resolution Introduced by me
called for police Intervention, so to
speak. In other words, the civil or
military authorities in Mexico, no mat
ter to what party or faction they be
longed, would be held personally re
sponsible for outrages. This talk of a
vast army and an endless war to en
force protection is to my mind abso
lutely unfounded. General Taylor with
under 4,000 men went right Into Mex
ico City, and the republic WHS then
larger than it is now, and there were
large and well organized armies In the
flejs. In my opinion, the presence of
five or ten thousand American soldiers
at certain points would be sufficient
to pacify any locality and protect
Americans and other foreigners. The
interference need not extend any far
ther and need not constitute political
interference with either government.
In my opinion, the mere declaration
of an intention to take such action
would have been sufficient If it had
been made early enough to have pre
vented federalists, constitutionalists or
bandits from interfering with Ameri
cans.
"Now that sums up the situation In
regard to Mexico, to my mind," said
the senator. Then after a pause he
said: "It has remained for the present
administration to bring about the dis
graceful spectable of American citt.
Zens being- held In contempt and hav
ing to seek protection from foreign
governments while American diplo
macy is rendered contemptible in the
eyes of civilized nations."

JUMP TO DEATH
[Continued from First Page]
Russians, having come to this city a
week ago.
Wanted to Throw Baby
The frightened group clad in their
sleeping robes stepped from the smoke
and flame-filled corridor of the third
floor to the snow-covered roof ol' a
second-story bay window in the front
of the apartment house. Below a
hundred excited people shouted warn
ings to the group on the roof not to
jump. Once the frantic mother nearly
threw her baby, which was nearly
naked, to the men below when huge
volumes of smoke began to curl from
the open window behind lier.
The Demenoffs had been driven
from their beds by the suffocating
smoke coming down the corridor from
the old man's room. The husband
carried with him an armful of cloth
ing, which he began to throw to the
sidewalk, yelling:
"Look out! We're going to Jump."
Spread Plrvnct
Several men, believing that the
panic-stricken group were about to
hurl themselves into the snow, quick
ly removed their overcoats to make a
flrenet, and holding the coat out, mo
tioned to the mother to throw the
baby down.
A cooler mind motioned to her to
hold the child, and two other men
ran into the house, up the stairs to the
room and dragged the people back to
safety. By this time, the chemical on
the flames had reduced the volume
of smoke, and the family was brought
down the stairs to the street.
The fire started when Burt bumped
against the oilstove In his room and
overturned It. For more than fifteen
minutes before the arrival of the fire
men, the old man, nearly suffocated
by smoke, kept fighting the flames
with the pillows and coverings of his
bed.
After the firemen arrived the old
man was rushed to the Harrisburg
Hospital. The apartment house
where the blaze started Is run by Mrs
Dora Frank. The property Is owneci
by the State, having been purchased
by the Capitol Park Extension Com
mission. The loss, as estimated by
Fire Chief Kindle will amount to
S3OO.

In the Orpheum headllner of this week
—"The Seminary Girls."
General excellence marks the entire
bill from an opening "strong man" ac
robatic act to the closing caper of
Knute's. In addition to the foolishness
of Mr. Erlckson, which made the audi
ence laugh deslpte the age of much of
the humor, "The Seminary Girls' Is con
ducive to the lightening of dull care be
cause there are about a dozen maidens
In the act of more than ordinary charm.
One of the most charming of the fair
ones was Jeanette Charleville, who does
a "Dutch" clog with Harry Kimball.
Eleanore Bergere, as the heroine of
the piece, pleases all the time, and es
pecially when she sings. And Law
rence Wallace, as her lover, has a voice
of no mean quality.
But Knute himself is the big feature
of the show with his "crazylsms" and
Illogical fool talk that now and then
almost smacks of philosophy. The pro
duction is probably the most elaborate
seen at the Orpheum this year. The
scenes of the first act are laid in a sum
mer resort hotel; the second act takes
place In a rose garden. The escape ot
"Daffy Dan" from a sanatorium next
door to the hotel, gives Erlckson a
chance to break In with his noise.
William Slsto, as an Italian comedian,
might be worse and he might be bet
ter; The Nick's Boiler Skating Girls
make many beautiful effects as they
glide over the stage; Melville and Hig
gins, "Putting On Airs," did the
usual duo stuff. "Three A. M. F.," a skit
played by Emll Hocli and company, Is
Just average.

Robbers Get $5,000 From
Baltimore Theater Safe
By Associated Press
Baltimore, Md., Feb. 24. Three
masked robbers entered the Academy
of Music last night, overpowered the
watchman, blew open the office safe
and got away with between $5,000
and $6,000, leaving the watchman tied
to a post in the auditorium. After
ward the cracksmen broke into a cigar
store adjoining the theater and stole
a number of expensive pipes.
Tho robbers left no clue and the
police declared the job to be the
work of experts and one of the neat
est ever performed In this city. The
men used thirty blankets they found
stored on the stage to deaden the
sound of the explosion.
Because of the fact that yesterday
was a holiday, there was an accumu
lation of money on hand from three
performances and advance sales of
tickets for this and next week's attrac
tions.

THIN FOLKS WHO
WOULD BE FAT
Increase In Weight Ten I'ounda or More
A PkyNlelan's Advice
"I'd certainly give most anything to
be able to fat up a few pounds and
stay that way," declares every exces
sively thin man or woman. Such a re
sult is not impossible, despite past fail
ures. Thin people are vlcltlms of mal
nutrition. a condition which prevents
the fatty elements of food from being
taken up by the blood as they are when
the powers of nutrition are normal. In
stead of getting Into the blood, all the
fat and flesh producing elements stay
ln the Intestines until they puss from
the body as waste.
To correct this condition and to pro
duce a healthy, normal amount of fat
the nutritive processes murt be artifi
cially supplied with the power which
nature has denied them. This can best
be accomplished by eating a Sargol tab
let with every meal. Sargol Is a scien
tific combination of six of the best
strength-giving, fat-producing elements
known to the medical profession. Taken
with meals, it mixes with the food and
turns the sugars and starches Into rich,
ripe nourishment for the tissues and
blood and Its rapid effect 1b remark
able. Reported (fains of from ten to
twenty-flve pounds ln a single month
are by no means Infrequent. Yet its
action Is perfectly natural and abso
lutely harmless. Sargol Is sold by O.
A. Gorgas and other good drugarlsts
everywhere and every package contains
a guarantee of wolght increase or
money back.
Caution t—' While Sargol has produced
remarkable results ln the treatment of
nervous indigestion and general stom
ach disorders, it should not, owing to Its
remarkable flesh producing effect, be
used by those who are not willing to
Increase their weight ten pounds or
more.—Aitvertlaemeni.

WHO LOSES ?
When you read announcements of
five dollar glasses for one dollar just
stop and think.
When I sell a frame or mounting
for 50c, SI.OO or $3.50, it is worth all
of the price I ask.
When I make a pair of lenses for
$1.50, $2.50 or SIO.OO a pair they are
worth all of the price I aslc.
When I examine your eyes I charge
vou SI.OO. My service would be cheap
at $5.00. I don't sell you a pair of
glasses for $5.00 or SI.OO to ruin your
eyes. If you don't need glasses, you
i pay me for my service. The "eyes
! examined free" man makes his profit,
j Think it over.
