Combing Won't Rid
Hair Of Dandruff
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 retir
ing ; use enough to moisten the scalp
and rub it in gently with the finger
tips.
Do this tonight, and 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, no matter how
much dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging- of the scalp will stop at
once, 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
never fails to do the work.

DISCOVER BIG
BANK SHORTAGE
AT VALPARAISO
Loans on Oil Stock Given
As Cause by the State
BoardExaminers
Investigating.
Lincoln, Neb., Jan. 14. (Special.)
The Valparaiso State bank was
closed last night at 5 by the state
banking board because of a shortage
of $150,000 .to $175,000 discovered
by officers of the bank.
The books of the concern are now
in the hands of the state bank ex
aminers, at the request of W. C.
Elmelund, president of the bank, S.
H. ' Frttsinger, vice president, and
J. B. Tomes, members of the board
of directors
It is said that R. A. Lower, cash
ier, was forced to resign his position
with the bank in October.
It seems that the bank has been
loaning money for deals in land and
oil stocks to a considerable extent,
but the investments proved un
sound. Valparaiso is in Saunders county,
between Fremont and Lincoln,
about 75 miles northwest of Omaha.
It is said that the shortage has
been known for some time by the
banking board, but that the fact
was not made public until the pres
ent time, for fear of hurting the in
stitution's reputation, should the re
port prove untrue.
Among the bad paper discovered
by the state banking board is an
overdraft for $10,000 on the Gallo
way company of Fort Worth, Tex.,
oil promoters. Mr. Lower is said
to be interested in this concern.
The El Rio Chattel company of
New Mexico also figures in the out
of state notes, to .the extent of
$19,000, the report states. Xhis con
cern promotes colonization schemes,
it is said. The leading members of
the firm are D. E. Lower, father of
the former Valparaiso cashier, D.
H. Talmadge and C L. Talmadge. ,
The Talmadges are listed in the
bank's notes for $10,000 and $4,000
respectively. It also mentions H.
R. Follmer of Omaha In connection
with a note for $20,000.
The attorney general stated to
day that no criminal action had been.
instituted and interred that none
would be taken. It is considered as
merely bad judgments in invest
ments, he said. .
Omaha Man Denies Having
Knowledge of $20,000 Note
H. R. Follmer of Omaha, when
questioned yesterday concerning
possible connections with the Val
paraiso State bank, declined to make
a statement
When tojd his name was men
tioned in connection with a note for
$20,000, hej said.
"I don't know anything about it."
"P. A. Barrows. Correspondent"
Says Speculation Caused
Valparaiso Bank Failure
When questioned concerning the
failure of, the Valparaiso State bank,
J. E. Hart, secretary of the depart
ment of trade and commerce which
has supervision over state banks
sgid:
"We discovered that there was a
shortage in funds at the Valparaiso
State bank about 60 days ago, and
asked that the cashier, R. A. Lower
resign. When he resigned he turned
in property amounting to from $30,
000 to $40,000.
"A mors recent investigation de
veloped that overdrafts, bad and
doubtful securities and cash items
of the bank aggregated a shortage
of -from $150,000 to $175,000. The
bank books are now being examined
by two bank examiners.
"I have asked the attorney gen
eral's office to appoint receivera for
the bank at once. A fomplaint was
filed Tuesday against Cashier Low
er, charging him wirn falsifying
accounts. I suppose he is under ar
rest by now. v
"It is simply a casa of reckless
banking and speculation."
State Acquires Custodial
. Farm on Outskirts of York
Lincoln, Jan. 14. (Special.) Aft
er a lpng wait the state will now

Wood Delegates Will
Abide by Preferential
Vote for Nomination
Lincoln, Jan. 14. (Special.) The
selection of a full set of delegates
to the national republican conven
tion by the statewide conference of
supporters of Leonard Wood for the
presidential nomination has caused
someone to inquire what these del
egates are going to do if they are
elected and the state should vote its
preference for another candidate.
That matter was fully discussed,
according to Frank P. Corrick, man
ager of the Wood campaign in Ne
braska, at the meeting last week at
which the delegates were selected,
and a resolution was passed to the
effect that in the event they were
elected and Wood did not receive
the preferential vote the delegates
would cast their votes for the man
who received the highest vote in the
primaries for the nomination.
"This should effectually settle any
controversy as to what the intention
of the Wood delegates would be,"
said Colonel Corrick when his at
tention was called to the matter.
"While it is our intention to carry
the state for Wood, it is not our in
tention to go against the wishes of
the people of the state, and if they
prefer some other candidate, and our
delegates or any part of them should
be selected as delegates to the na
tional convention, they will certainly
abide by the wishes of the voters of
the state."
Pershing Men to. Fight Wood
For Nebraska Delegates
Lincoln, Neb., Jan. 14. Mark W.
Woods of Lincoln, executive chair
man of a Nebraska Pershing-for-president
movement, made public
a statement here today saying Gen
eral Pershing's friends would be
glad to have Nebraska the scene
of a Pershing-Wood contest for
delegates to the republican national
convention, in Chicago next June.
Mr. Woods returned to Lincoln yes
terday from an eastern trip in be
half of the Pershing movement.
Preparation recently in Nebraska
by admirers of General Wood of a
list of candidates to &eek election
as delegates to the republican na
tional convention, his statement said,
is taken by eastern political writers
to mean that General Wood's sup
porters challenge General Pershing
to a contest of delegates in Persh
ing's home state. "We accept the
challenge," the statement added.'

LARGER COURT
NEW PROPOSAL
AT CONVENTION
Nine Judges Selected From
Four Districts Plan Is
Urged by Cuming County
Delegate. '
Lincoln, Neb., Jan. 14. (Spe
cial.) To increase the membership
of the supreme court to nine mem
bers and divide the state Into four
judicial districts, is the proposition
put up to the constitutional conven
tion by Delegate A. R. Oleson of
Cuming 'county.
The change is covered in two pro
posals. The first divides the dis
trict into four supreme court dis
tricts from which two judges shall
be elected from each district, while
the chief justice will be elected at
large by the entire state.
Division of the state would make
the First district combine all of the
counties south of the Platte river
and east of the west line of Adams,
Webster and Hall, not including
Lancaster Saunders, Otoe and Cass.

trict. The Third district would take in
a!! of the counties north of the
Platte river and east of the west line
of Valley, Garfield, Holt and Boyd.
The Fourth district would take in
all of the counties not included in
the other three districts.
The proposal would allow the
court to sit as either one or two
bodies, but in each division an opin
ion by three judges would carry,
while in cases bearing upon the con
stitutionality of law, the whole court
must participate.
Proposals introduced this morning
ran the number up to 248, as follows:

What every womau learn
Is marriage really a lottery and do people really
understand the true natures of each other before,
the bonds are tied?
Her father had told her on his death-bed to be
certain when she married that it would be a man
with a "happy disposition,' for true love could
not exist without it.
. '
Two men wooed her, one serious faced, while the
other was a "parlor" clown. She chose the latter
from his outward cheeriness, and they married.
How she was tricked and the bitter disappoint
ments she experienced before realizing her mistake
forms a gripping story and a true one taken from a
chapter of life itself.
