To do this, just get about four ounces of plain, ordinary liquid arvon from any drug store (this is all you will need), apply it at night when 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 two | or three more applications will com- | pletely dissolve and entirely destroy single sign and trace of it, no matter how much dandrufl you may have. | You will find, too, all itching and ! digging of the scalp will stop in- stantly, and your hair will be fluffy, | lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better. dvertisement. | 4 COMPLETE WOMAN'S g The Liberal’s Great EASTER OFFER || “Every woman in town can be dressed in the smartest of Fifth Avenue, New York, styles, on our sensational $5 outfit plan.

The ‘same group of men who perfected the hermetically sealed mechanism of the General Electric Refrigerator, have now designed and built the first all-steel refrigerator cabinet. This achievement marks the greatest improve- ment made during the past 30 years, in the design and construction of refrigerator cab- inets. It means that new and far greater value has been built into the already unrivaled General Electric Refrigerator. After the engineers of General Electric had perfected this all-steel refrigerator, they had to build the giant presses which were to cut the steel and bend it into shape; and electric welders to fuse together the folded forms at a temperature of 4500 degrees. Millions spent for new machinery To manufacture this new all-steel refrigera- tor. General Electric has invested several mil- lions of dollars in new machinery. Its aim was to build the best refrigerator ever pro- duced and offer it to the small families of America at a price easily within their reach. 215 At the Factory No refrigerator has been built in such quan- tities or by such efficient and economical methods. Mass production has cut costs to 4 minimum and made possible the very low price—$215 at the factory. = General Electric has now made scientific refrigeration, which is vital to the health of the nation, possible for every home. Only a small down payment is required. The bal- ance may be paid in easy and convenient installments—just a few dollars a month. The only way to appreciate the outstanding quality, the beauty, the value of this new General Electric all-steel refrigerator is to see it. Come in today. It is now on display. “Listen in on the General Electric Hour, March 23rd, sponsored by the General Electric Refrigerator. This Pprogram is broadcast from 9 to 10 Eastern Standard Time over N. B.
