A SMALL BOTTLE STOPS DANDRUFF Eveiy Bit of Dandruff Disap pears and Hair Stops Coming Out Try This! Your Hair Appears Glossy, Abundant, Wavy and Beautiful Thin, brittle, colorless and scraggy I hair 5s mute evidence of a neglected scalp; of dandruff—that awful fccurf. There Is nothing so destructive to the hair as dandruff. It robs the hair of its lustre, its strength and its very life; eventually producing a feverishness and itching of the scalp, which if not remedied causes the hair roots to shrink, loosen and die —then the hair falls ouz fast. A little Danderine to-night—now— any time—will surely rave your hair. Get a small bottle of Knowlton's Danderine from any drug store or toilet counter for a few cents, and after the first application your hair ■will take on that life, lustre and luxuriance which is so beautiful. It will become wavy an<] laSy and have the appearance of abundance, an incomparable gloss and softness; but what will please you most will be after just a few weeks' use, when you will actually see a lot of fine, ■downy hair —new hair —growing all over the scalp. Danderine is to the hair what fresh showers of rain and sunshine are to vegetation. It goes right to the roots, invigorates and strength ens them. Its exhilarating and life producing properties cause the hair to grow long, strong and beautiful.

Sinokin# Deemed Necessary I by Men Who Battle in All Kinds of Weather J You've heard of my daddy, of course! He diet. ' Right uj> In the blue of the far-away skies] 1 And does suoh plucky and marvel ous things! j The splendldest daddy that ever had wings! | And every night, before going off to sleep ! 1 look at the stars as they twinkle and peep. And whisper to One who owns air, sky and sea, "Please bring my dear daddy back safely to me!" Ten thousand airships handled by American boys will win the war. That is the opinion of Army experts of other nations than our own. If this nation had started building sky destroyers a year or so earlier we | would be flying over Germany now, doing greatest devastation. The fj er is the very bravest and most daring of all modern soldiers. Death has no fears for him. The rate of casualty is tremendous, but that does not daunt our young manhood. No finer type of man ever served in armies than the skyflghter of this war, and when the aviator finds that tobacco is necessary to him, should any stay-at-home person raise his voice in protest ? The Red Cross nurses are of the same opinion. Hear this one: "Checkers is a favorite game with our soldiers. But the greatest joys are cigarets and maybe hand-mlr rors. Cigarets there are, of course; a world in which every one is not smoking has ceased to be imagin able. If there Is any one who Is not, be sure it is merely to save a cigaret for some poilu. Smoking, once a calendar crime for some, has lost all meaning, all relation. A sane world may possibly again re cover a viewpoint about this habit, but at present tho cigaret appears as a good angel, the ministerer of suffering, the giver of a moment's pleasure where one longs to give all." Girl Named County Treasurer in Oregon St. Helens, Ore.—Miss Ressie Hat tan, daughter of the late Judge R. S. Ilattan, has been appointed treasur er of Columbia county by County Judge S. C. Morton.

A.; Pledged to Work For U.S. Plana for the promotion and or ganisation of a Patriotic League Were discussed in n meeting held at Uo Y. W, C, A, building this morn ing. About 250 members have al ready been secured In the city. Membership fees are live cent*. Tlio lltgh school girls who attended at Camp Nepahwin are among those who have signed the pledge, which follows; "I pledge to express my patriotism by doing better than ever before whatever work I have to do; by ren dering whatever special service 1 can to my community and country; by living up to the highest standards of character and honor and helping others to do the same." The plan of the league is to en courage patriotism and patriotic ser vice. The league may be organised in other organisations than the Y, \V. C. A.

Asks Old Kid Gloves For Soldiers' Vests "Wanted —All the old kid gloves in the country. Soldiers need them." This appeal is issued by the Over seas Committee of tho Emergency Aid and illustrates how one of the byproducts of civilization may be utilized for the benefit of the Amer ican soldiers. It is one of the les ser calls, but one to which the pub lic will respond generously when it understands the use to which the old gloves are put. Old *kid gloves are made into leather vests for soldiers and, on the word of men in the service who have been "over there," no other gar ment contributed by the loving friends is so much appreciated. Leather vests are not only as warm as woolen sweaters, but they are much more durable and infinitely more sanitaVy. England and France have bfeen stripped of their supply for the pur pose and there are no more to be had because the munition factories demand them for the manufacture of glue. ttXRIUSBURG ftSSSft* TELEGRAPH INSURANCE MEN SELL WAR STAMPS Metropolitan Agent Disposes of $2,000 Worth, Another $350 tVorth in One Day The Metropolitan Life Insurance Company agents of Harrisburg and Lebanon are doing more than their "bit" in the sale of Thrift Stamps. The local office, of which John Heathcote is the superintendent, has undertaken to sell $200,000 worth this year, "and we" are going to do it," said Mr. Heathcote to-day. One man, William Bristol, already ha-s sold more than $2,000 worth of, the stamps and John Zarker, an other agent, yesterday sold $350 worth in a few hours. "Our company is convinced that the stamps are an excellent invest ment," salfl Mr. Heathcote to-day, "and strongly recommend them to our policyholders. The allottment we have undertaken to sell means that each man of the thirty-one in Harrisburg, and the four in Leban on must sell more than SIOO worth each week for the remainder of the 'year. The men are all anxious to do this work as a patriotic serv\pe. I have just purchased $875 worth of the stamps and each man will at all times have $25 worth in his purse for sale." London People Over Suspicious —Wo are all apt to be oversuspieJous just now, of every thing and everybody. An instance of this regretable tendency is fur nished by an edifying food "queue" story which is going the rounds here. A queue had formed up outside a butcher's shop in a lxmdon suburb and in order to make things easier for all concerned, the shopman a dopted the plan of letting his cus tomers in in parties of eight or ten, and of letting them out from the rear noticing that, though many went in, none came came out, marveled great ly, and when it came her turn to enter, she hesitated about doing so. "Hurry up madam" shouted the butcher who didn't want to lose his time. "But what have you done with all the other people? was the start ling inquiry. Plans to Drop His Bombs Near Father's Old Home Madison, Wis.—"l'm going to fly back to Berlin where you came from, dad, and drop a liomb somewhere near your old home."' That's the way Lloyd A. Lehrbass, a student in the course in journalism | at the State University informed his j father that he had enlisted in the ! aviation service of the United States Army. The father's reply to the mes sage was: "God bless you, son. I'm proud of you." KREIDER TO HAVE NO OPPOSITION Congressman to Be Renomi nated by Republicans; Has Splendid Record CONGRESSMAN A. S. KREIDER Petitions will bo circulated in a day or two for the renominatlon of Congressman Aaron S. Kreider. Mr. Kreider was in Harrisburg yesterday on business for the United Bfethren Church, witli which he is prominent ly identified, and discussed the matter with friends who approached him on the subject. They informed him that Dauphin county will be solidly for him and the same news is received from Lebanon and Cumberland coun ties. For months it has been known that Congressman Kreider could have the nomination for/the asking. He has served in Congress since his election In 1912 and ls the confidence of both Republicans and Democrats at Washington. 'He has supported the President In all the big war meas ures and has at all times had the interests of his district in sight, as well as those of the country at large. He lias served on important commit tees of Congress and always gets a careful hearing when he speaks either on the floor of the House or before a committee. Runs Up Prussian Flag and Is in Custody Reno, Nev. —Herman Frederick Wilhelm Babbel, an alien enemy, was arrested in Salt Lake City on In structions from Washington and in terned at Fort Douglas for the dur ation of the war. .Babbel recently expressed the opinion that Germany would win the war and get even with the United States for taking the part of the Allies, "if it took for ty years." Babbel, who is a ladies' tailor, and who has for his customers many of Salt Lake's fashionable women, displayed the Prussian colors at his place of business and made it a point to tell his patrons that Presi dent Wilson was in the pay of the British government. Negress Known as "Cheery" Dies at 108 Los Angeles, Cal.—"Cheery" An derson, negress, native of Louisiana, died tt the Home for the Aged of the Little Sisters of the Poor," on Boyle Heights, at the alleged age of 108 years. She was given the name of "Cheery" years ago because of her constant bright and cheerful spirit. She had been an inmate of the home for seven years, and in her conversations she referred to hap penings, with an intimate knowledge, that cause those who cared for her to feel that she was probably cor rect in her claim to have passed the century mark by fully eight years. She had great grandchildren, who are mature men and women. Wants 20,000 British Soldiers From America J Brig-Gen. W. A- WHITE.. Within the next two months 20,- 000 Britishers in the United States must enlist in the British army, says General W. A. White of the British and Canadian Recruiting Mission. There are some 300,000 British and Canadian subjects In the United States. Americans are busy now handling their own national army. The British mission is capable of relieving Uncle Sam of the trouble -of handling the BHtish a.nd Canad ians who want to go to the front. Plenty of Ashes but No Collections For New Ash Inspector to Inspect Hiirry F. Bhoealey, chief Inspector of the Bureau of Garbage and Ash Inspoctlon, began his duties to-day. George J. Hutton, who was appoint ed a a an assistant, will begin his work on Monday. Commissioner Hasoler announced he will confer with the two new Inspectors this evening to discuss their duties and the system to be used by the bureau In checking up all ash and garbage complaints. Hafi-y Brothers, contractors for garbage removal, reported to-day they are on schedule with all col lections and will complete work in the upper end of the city shortly after noon to-morrow. Because 5f the poor service given by the former contracting firm, the new collectors wero delayed at first, as in some dis tricts a. wagonload of gaAge was removed in one block. % It has not been decided whether Council will act on Tuesday on awarding a contract for ash collec tions, or discarding the bids. Some officials said to-day they believed the Commissioners can find enough funds available to provide an addi tional $20,000 to the $40,000 al ready appropriated and will then let the contract. The councilmen, how ever, would not comment on the situation, only stating they hoped to provide for the collection work by contract.
