    iy This If You
Have Dandruff
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, ordinary
liquid arvon; apply it at night 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
will be gone, and three or
*our 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 lind, too, that all Itching
and digging of the scalp will stop In
stantly, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
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 has never been known to fall.

PI MEAT WHEN
HIDES BOTHER!
Take a glass of Salts if your
Back hurts or Bladder
troubles you.
No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make a mistake by j
flushing the kidneys occasionally, j
says a well-known authority. Meat
forms uric acid which excites the
kidneys, they become overworked from '
the strain, get sluggish and fail to ,
filter the waste and poisons from 1
the blood, then we get sick. Nearly
ail rheumatism, headaches, liver
trouble, nervousness, dizziness, sleep
lessness and urinary disorders come
from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache
in the kidneys or your back hurts or
if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full
sediment, irregular of passage or
attended by a sensation of scalding,
stop eating meat and get about four
ounces of Jad Salts from any phar
macy; take a tabiespoonful in a glass
of water before breakfast and in a
few days your kidneys will act fine.
This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, com
bined with lithla, and has been used
for generations to flush and stimu
late the kidneys, also to neutralize
the acids in urine so it no longer
causes irritation, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and can
not injure; makes a delightful effer
vescent llthia-water drink which
everyone should take now and then
to keep the kidneys clean and active
and the blood pure, thereby avoiding
serious kidney complications.

"Another false alarm turned In from

cause of serious loss of life and prop

when the city's firemen had turned in,
sincerely hoping theer would be no

an unknown miscreant pulled the box

WATER COMPANY
GETS HARD RAPS
Ohio Valley Company's Rates
Arc Set Aside and New
Valuation Made
The Public Service Commission to
day tiled an opinion in the complaints
filed against the rates of the Ohio
Valley Water Company, which serves
six boroughs and three townships in
Allegheny, in which the schedule of
rates filed a few days before the pub
lic service company act of 1913 went
into effect are declared to be "un
just, unreasonable, inadequate, unjust
ly discriminatory and unduly and un
reasonably preferential."
The opinion written by Commission
er Hilling is one of the largest hand
ed down by the commission and it is
found that the rates for lire and gen
eral service were not the same in the
districts served.
Valuation of the property of the
| company, which is made for purpose
j of rate making is given as $924,74 1,
j which it is said would give the c_p rn _-
pany "a gross revenue of $135,167.60,
which is to be collected by the re
spondent as follows: From fire ser
vice, $27,033.53, and from all other
service $108,134.16."
The decision sets aside all contracts,
whether franchise ordinances or not,
specifying for a definite or indefinite
period; establishes a basis for tire ser
vice: provides that all meters shall
be installed at the expense of the re
spondent which shall own them; fixes
7 per cent, over and above its neces
sary annual operating expenses and a
proper allowance for depreciation as
a fair return on the investment; the
annual depreciation is fixed at $6,-
935.38 and the new schedule of rates
is to be effective as of January 1,
1916.

Punch Board Must Go
Police Chief's Edict
The day of the gaming device in Har
risburg is over.
While Police Chief Wetzel would say
little about the plan of his department
—Wetzel makes arrests and talks af
terward—it was intimated about the de
partment that the punch board must
go. The arrest of Thomas Gough and
'William Dorman, two Baltimore men,
and half a dozen pool room clerks, yes
terday afternoon, it is understood, was
the police chief's warning to other
operators who have been at work in
the city.
Little troublo in the future is ex
pected. however, as a round of suspect
ed places today produced never a sign
that a gaming device had ever been
heard of, let alone operated.
Gough and Dorman. the heads of the
alleged punch board syndicate, were
given a hearing late this afternoon.
Demain Says River Ice
Grows Less Dangerous
"The time is not quite ripe for a
general movement of the ice from the
main body of the Susquehanna," said
E. U. Demain, in the local forecaster
today.
"The weather will be colder tonight
and that will stop the melting of the
snow in the mountainous districts. The
slight rainfall of last night was not
sufficient to cause a rise worth 'men
tioning. This all goes to help the fu
ture outlook for .the passage of the
Ice without trouble," is tho way the
forecaster sizes up tiie situation.

FLAYS MONEY
MAKING PREACHER
Evangelist Insists, However,
That Selfish Businessman
Is Just as Bad
W. A. Bodell, evangelist conducting a
campaign in the Covenant Presbyterian
church, last night scored the preacher
who uses his pulpit to selfish ends and
to make what money can be made out
of the job.
The evangelist, however, reached the
conclusion that as every man's life
was a part of the plan of God, such a
preacher is no worse than the man who
uses his business or his farm solely
for his own selfish ends.
Bodell's sermon was a plea to men
and women to find the place God has
for them In his plan. He drew his
subject from the use the Lord made
of the ass in his triumphal entry into
Jerusalem. He showed that as this
event was prophesied a thousand
years before it came to pass, that the
Lord had a plan for this dumb boast
that was centuries in working out.
The meeting was opened with a "sun
shine hour," led by Harry L. Maxwell.
The congregation was familiarized
with the "sunshine" songs and taught
to whistle. Mr. Maxwell sang the
melody of Donizetti's sextette, "O My
Soul, Trust Thou Jehovah."
A prayer meeting was held this
morning at 9 o'clock and at 2.30 o'clock
this afternoon special services were
held. The afternoon meetings wilt be
a feature of the campaign. This even
ing at 7.30 o'clock Evangelist Bodell
will preach and Mr. Maxwell will sing.
A large chorus has been organized and
will be present at the service to-night.
The Palmer evangelistic party which
in conducting evangelistic services in
the Sixth Street United Brethren
Church, entered into another week of
work to-day after a rest yesterday.
This afternoon Miss Palmer will con
duct her afternoon Bible study. The
book for discussion will be the Acts.
This evening Miss Palmer will deliver
a sermon on "Hell." The congregation
of the First United Brethren Church
will attend the service In a body.
A large audience listened attentive
ly last night to Dr. E. L. Hyde, who is
conducting evangelistic services in the
Camp Curtin Memorial Methodist
Church. Dr. Hyde preached from the
text, "The Man Who Quarreled With
His Medicine." He announced a meet
