It doesn't do much good ta, try to brush or wash it out. The only sure way to get rid of dandruff is to dis solve it, then you destroy it entirely. To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid avron; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gent- ly with the finger tips. ; By 'morning, most if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will completely dissolve and entirely de- troy every single sign and trace of t. \ bo < You will find too, that all itehing ani digging of the scalp will stop, and your halr will Jook and feel a hundred times better, You can get liquid arvon at any drug store.

This summer our great economist, Emile Waxweller, who was to supervise the restoration of nur national life, was killed in the strects of London by an automobile. This month & train tn Rouen crushed to death Emile Verhueren, the great litprary figure of Belgium. We had hoped that the same pow. efful voice which magnified the great industrial effort of Belgium and with 'a wild energy denounced the anni hilstion of all its attainments at the hands of the invaders would concen- trate the vigor of an exceptionally virfle:talent in an inspiring hymn of trivmph for the day wien Belgium will be free again, This privilege bas been refused to a man who deserved it so well, not only because he was & great artist, but because he is emin- ently a Belgian poet, uniting in his talent both the Flemish mentality and the French power of expression. He was born in St. Amand, near Antwerp, in 1855, on the banks of the Scheldt, a region of gloomy mists, but with a fertile soil and & sturdy and lusty race of med. As & student in Louvain University, Ver. haeren forinded a literary perioflical, La Semaine. x: He soon became a friend of Maes terlinék. Edmond Picard, the editor of-1'Art Social, converted Verhaerem to socialisnr, From the very. begin- ning of his literary career the young poet had found himself especially ine terested in workmen and peasants. His first book, 'Les Flamandes,", aims to describe the Flemish farm ers. Prompted by his juvenile extra~ vagance, he drew of them 'a picture hideous and immodest beyofid meas ure. The critics were severe upon the young artist, who tried to give loftier descriptions in "Les Moines" ("The Monks"). As an adolescent, be had been pro- foundly impressed by the mystical figures of the monks of Bornhem, near his native place. In order to revive his impressions he had spent some time with the Trappists near Chimay. The picture he gives of the monk, however, is hardly less exas- perated than the description of the "Flamandes," The friars are for him a disconcerting vision of a fierce asceticism in an inhospitable sur. rounding. In both works his tumultuous soul, like a lens, was amplifying every- thing and overheating the eye of the observer, These, moreover, were the, first symptoms of a mental and moral crisis through which Verhseren had soon after to struggle. Turned into a hypochondriae, he was more and more attracted by gloomy and dark visions. He went abroad and found a coagenial sur- rounding in the foggy immensity of London. During his sojourn in the anglish city he wrote a trilogy of tears, fears, 'and despair, "Soirs," "Debacles," "Flambeaux noirs'. in 1891 he recovered from his ill ness and his despair in the convie- tion that he had.a social mission, Like his friend, BE. Picard, he thought that art should be made acceasible to the people and help the conversion of the working classes to the ideal of collectivism. . .Verhaeren's social { tdeal, true it is, is more or less un- precise and negative. His vehement immoderate | hatred .against the evils of bur pre- { gent society at the same time as an immense affection for the 'toilsome - existence of the humble. He became | the chanter of peasants and wark- { men, of 'their quiet and laborious life in the small towns, and the indefatig- | able denouncer of the unquenchable i thirst of our modern ugly cities for | orie men to swallow up in their fac. tories and their turmoils of money astires.

Canadian Woman - Has Taken Ple- tures on Western Front. Few more interesting War visitors have come to Canada than Mrs. ence Harper (formerly Miss Florence MacLeod of Woodstock). In Europe when war broke ont, Mrs. Harper became closely interested in Freach and Belgian relief work and concelv- ed the idea of taking pictures of the work and exhibiting them on this side of the water. la 8 with her has been Captain Donald C. pson, who was shot ~tbrough the eye while operating the machine. Mrs. Harper has a nipe-hundred-dol- la¥ cinema camera, and her ' party includes her partner and his wife and the camera man. : Mrs. Harper, who is a woman of independefit weaith, had been 80 ac- tively engaged in French relief work under the Duc dé Polignac that the French Government gave her every facility to get pictures at the very front itself. And though it had been Mrs. Harper's intentibn to use her pictures In her own 'lectures she has been unable to carty out her plans owing to a painful 'affection the throat. Accordingly she bas dis- posed of many of her pictures to well known publications and regular film companies, and recently started for the Russian front. Atmed with a passport from Sir. Edward Grey, as her husband is an Englishman, Mrs. Harper has nearly & hundred letters to important men in Russia and China, as she is going to the Caar's domains by way of Manilla and China. - | Very business-like did the lady look as she bade farewell to To- ronto, for her 'adventuresome jour- ney will cover about two months be fore she reaches the Russian freat, and #he had cut off her hair to save upnecesssry trouble. Mrs. Harper hopes to return by next spring and carry out her original plan of lectar- ing with her pictures. Such wonder- ful things has she to say of the mar- vellous spirit of the French. "Words seam feeble to convey any idea of the indom{tabls spirit of the whole French a¥my," said Mrs. Harper, who also has much to say of the ap- preciation in France of Canadian sol- diers and relief work. Mrs. Harper likes her hospital pic- tures best, as they show the wonder- ful cures' wrought by the new am- brine, a liquid paraffin. Men who have been most cruelly burned about the hands and face are soon restored to normal condition by this wonder- ful new treatment. -------------------------- Canada's Generosity. it used to be said in the days, be- fore the war that the British people underrated their Empire because they were unable to comprehend any values that could not be expressed in terms of pounds, shillings, and pence. The reproach no longer holds good. We have learned from the enthus- jasm and devotion of the men of the Dominions that the meaning of the Empire needs to be expressed in terms of higher value. But even on that old sordid basis we are finding out week by week and month by Month how much the Colonies are i to the Motherland. The Prov- ince of Ontario has contributed =a magnificent gift of £250,000 to the "Our Day" effort in behalf of the ed Cross funds. And this is but an nstallment of the £400,000 'which this one province of Canada is volun- tarily subscribing to the splendid cause, Canada's generosity is indeed inex- haustible. For hospital equipment the Canadian Government contribut- ed, to begin with, £20,000. The women of Canada subscribed £60,- 000, of which £20,000 was to go to the War Office and the balance to the Admiralty 'for Haslar Hospital. These and similar contributions in addition to .the splendid hospital equipment tor the treatment of Can- adian wounded which the Dominion has herself provided. There are other gifts and benefac- tions innumerable, How many peo- ple in this country are aware that Canadian help has been received to- wards the relief of distress in our east coast holiday resorts? Yet that is so. A vast contribution of wheat given to this country by Canada was sold and the money devoted to this purpose. Now comes 'this magnifi- cent gift from Ontario. And all this on top of a comtribution of close upon 400,000 of the finest soldiers in the world!«--London Daily Mail.
