The best way to get rid of dandruff is to dissolve it. To do this, just apply a little Liquid Arvon at night before retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp, and rub it in gently with the finger tips. By morning, most, if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications should completely re- move every sign and trace of it.

The Fettered Soul I wisu I were not so in chains To customs and to common use; A large umbrella, when it rains, I fain would spread, nor care a deuce. I brim with unfulfilled desires My bosom teems with smother loves ; Sadly my better self aspires To wear a pair of yellow gloves. I wish convention would permit A stroll bareheaded down the street, I wish it were not wrong to flit About with pale, uncovered feet ; I wish a beard did not evoke The ribald shout, the churlish grin— But principally I would cloak My hands in yellow chamois skin.
