D&ndruffy Heads
Become Hairless |
If you want pleutv of thick, beauti- i
ful, glossy, silky hair, do by all means j
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 euough to moisten the
scalp and rub it in gently with the
tinger 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.
You will find, too, that all itching
Ind digging of the scalp will stop, and
your hair will look and feel a hundred
times better. You can got liquid arvon
at any drug store. It is inexpensive
and four ounces is all you will need,
no matter how much dandruff you have.
This simple remedy never fails. Adv.

IHECHANICSBURC MEETING
Men. Women, Boys and Girls Answer
Summons of Evangelist Miller Alt
er He Preaches Powerful Sermon in
Tabernacle USst Night
MevJiauiesburg, Jan. IS.—Long be
fore the children's parade started from
the tabernacle ou Saturday afternoon,
crowds were gathered along the line ot
march to see the boys and girls go by.
About five hundred were in line, each
one, even the tiniest, carrying a flag.
Ax the tabernacle, after the parade.
Evangelist Miller preached to the chil
dren on the Ten Commundents.
On Saturday evening many stood
during the entire service. The chil
dren's "booster chorus" occupied the
choir seats on the platform, taking the
piece of the adult choir, arid during the
opening part of the service' they gave
a number of songs, and aiso some yells,
including several "Christian veils.'
Dr. W. X. Yates, of the Fourth Street
church of God. Harrisbung, made the
opening prayer. Ex-Mayor Gross, of
Harrisburg. chairman of the 'Harris
burg Stough campaign committee, was
introduced, and told of the great bless
ings which the Stough campaign has
brought to Harrisburg and assured his
hearers that the same blessed results
"will attend the caAipaign in Mechanics
burg if the Christian people yield them
selves fully to the guidance of the
Holy Spirit, .lust before the sermou
Miss Cree sang "We Shall Shine As
the Stars."
Evangelist Miller's text was taken
from Psa. 142:4. "No man cared for
my soul." He said in part: "This is
the cry of hundreds of souls in Me
chanicsburg right here in this taber
nacle. You have never showed them
that you cared for their souls. You can
not say you have no opportunities.
Even the busy housekeeper who scarce
ly ever leaves her owu door has op
portunities—the milkman. the gas
man. the grocery boy. You are saved
to save others —saved to serve. Until
you catch that vision you'll never
move Meehaniesburg. Cain's greatest
sin was not his offering an unworthy
offering, not his murder of his brother:
his culminating sin was when he an
swered God, 'Am I my brother's keep
er ' You are responsible for the sal
vation of your friends, and you can
never see God's face in peace unless
you lead t'.iern to Christ." He told of
an irreligious man. who, dying as the
result of a fearful accident, spurned
the prayers of the Christian neighbor
who had never before spoken to him
of his soul, and died cursing the man
and his religion. That Christian prom
ised God then that never again should
any man. woman or child die or move
from the community and be able to say
"No man cared for my soul." Until
you love perishing souls with a love
akin to the love of Jesus Christ, you
are none of His. Salvation, eternity
are on the minds of men and women in
Meehaniesburg as never before. Peo
ple here in the tabernacle are just
ready to step over the line and are
waiting your word, your touch."
He closed with an appeal to the un
saved to trust the Christ who died for
them, and who "cares for your souls."
Yesterday, morning the co-operating
churches held Sunday school as usual,
and the ministers occupied their pul-
pits. In the afternoon two mass meet
ings were held, one for men in the
tabernacle and one for women in the
Presbyterian church. At the tabernacle
1.200 men heard Mr. Miller preach on
'"The I>::al Man." The singing, with
Prof. Hohgatt leading, aud George
Hauek at the piano, was a special fea
ture. Prof. Hohgatt sang a solo. The
Presbyterian church was crowded with
women and some stood during the en
tire meeting. Mrs. Bowman spoke on I
Thess. 5:4. "But ye. brethren, are not
in darkness, that that day should over
take you as a thief," and urged all to
be ready for the coming of Christ.
Thirty-four decision cards were signed.
At this meeting Miss Cree led the mu
sic, with Miss Estelle Marshall as or
ganist. Miss Cree and Mrs. Miller sang
a duet.
At 6 o'clock Mrs. Bowman met the
members of the young people's societies
in the Bethel of the Church of God.
She spoke of what the real Christian
life is—the indwelling of the Holy-
Spirit working out in the life.
At 7 o clock the tabernacle was
again filled, and many stood. The open
in o prayer was offered bv the Rev.

Mr. Miller preached on the words.
I "What Think Ye of t'hristf" found in
• Matthew, 22:42. He said iu part:
I "This old question has come ringing
; down the ages, and is the question of
the age. Some say Christ was a dream
er. a good man. but not divine. That's
a damnable lie. He was either more
lor less than a man. If His claim to
• be divine was not true. He was not a
i good man. The question to day is not
I what you think of any great man, or
'of any church, but 'what think ye of
i Christ?' On your auswer depends
whether vou will spend the unnumbered
ages of eternity at God's right hand,
or in the despair of hell. If He was
; not more than human, how did His life
rise to the superhuman! He lived a
iife of perfect unselfishness and love.
(He spoke as never man spake and yet
the common people could understand
j him. He never write a sermon, never
i published a book, never had n stenog-
I rapher or a press reporter. The only
j record He left was on the memory of
I uncultured fishermen, but we have this
I book, the Bible, a perfect whole, with
' not flaws, no contradiction. That rec
old has withstood all the powers of
| t!ie devil for two thousand years. Borne
has fallen, the temple of Diana is in
ashes, but the followers of Jesus, bv
millions, are found in every uation'on
the globe.
'He called the roll of the enemies
j of Christ, and of His friends, and all
bear testimony to His divinity. He
I closed the I>st with the testimony of a
(converted drunkard to the divine re
generating power of Christ, and then
made the appeal to the unsaved to come
, forward. Thirty six persons responded
j —men. women, bovs and girls. A man
| and wife came forward, weeping, elasp
;ed in each other's arms. A mother
orought her son. Among the converts
wore Prof. Jaeoby. principal of Mechan
-1 isburg schools, and a number of school
i boys and girls. Mr. Miller grasped the
hand of each as they came forward
i and then they were seated on the front
| seats. Decision cards were accepted
and signed. All followed Mr. Miller as
I ho repeated a pledge of acceptance of
'hrist. A dedicatory prayer was offer
ed by the Rev. Mr. Fulton and the
service closed with the benediction by
the Rev. Mr. Raaeh.
To-day is rest day. At 12.30 to-mor

When You Wash Your
Hair Don't Use Soap
Most soups ami prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali, which is
very injurious, as it dries the scalp
and makes the hair brittle.
The hest thing: to use is just plain
mulsifled cocoanut oil, for this is
pure and entirely jrreaseless. It's
very cheap, and beats soaps or any
thing else all to pieces. You can pet
this at any drug store, and a few
ounces will last the whole family for
months.
Simply moisten the hair with
water and rub it in, about a lea
spoonful is alj that is required. It
makes an abundance of rich, creamy
lather, cleanses thoroughly, and
rinses out easily. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and is soft,
fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy
and easy to handle. Besides, it !
loosens and tnkes out every particle
of dust, dirt and dandruff.

BETRAYED INTO FIVE YEARS
Over-Active Jail Sojourner in Luck Till
Prisoner Exposes Him
Lewistown, Pa., Jan. 18.—Judge J.
M, Woods sentenced Samuel Woonier
to five years in the Western peniten
tiary on conviction of obtaining good*
under false pretense.
Woomer has spent half of iiis twen
ty-two years under prison restraint ami
is still unable to be good. When a
mere boy he was sent to an industrial
school in Lycoming county, from where
he was sentenced to the Reform school
at Huntingdon for one and to the East
ern penitentiary for two terms. August
last, when convicted of stealing a bi
cycle, Bam pleaded hard for a chance
to make good, sentence was suspended.
His homo was closed, however, and ho
was permitted to remain around tho
prison, as a matter of charity, without
restraint.
During this time ho intercepted a
letter addressed to a fellow prisoner,
removed the money sent by an anxious
mother to obtain the liberty of her sou,
and later stole articles of value from
the office of Sheriff T. 8. VanZandt
and pawned them.
He used the references obtained as
a "trusty" to purchase a revolver, belt
and shells at a local hardware store
and have them charged to the account
of the Sheriff. It was while awaiting
trial on this charge that he frisked the
pockets of a fellow prisoner of $3, de
nied. it, and when the goods could not
be found on him convinced tho jury
that he was honest this once, but alas,
a fellow prisoner welched ami showed
the Court where the money was cached,
and Sam got five years.
