Try as you will, after an application
of Danderlne, you cannot find a single
trace of dandruff or falling hair and
your scalp will not Itch, but what will
please you most, will be after a few
weeks' use, when you see new hair,
fine and downy at first—yes—but real-
ly new hair—growing all over the
scalp.
A little Danderlne immediately dou-
bles the beauty of your hair. No differ-
ence how dull, faded, brittle and
scraggy, just moisten a cloth with
Danderlne and carefully draw It
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. The effect Is Im-
mediate and amazing—your hair will
be light, fluffy and wavy, and have an
appearance of abundance; an Incom-
parable luster, softness and luxuri-
ance, the beauty and shimmer of true
hair health.
Get a 25 cent bottle of Knowlton's
Danderlne from any store and prove
that your hair Is as pretty and soft
as any—that It has been neglected or

THKEE revolutions to the
south of the United,
States lies Nicaragua, j
the boiling pot of On-
iral America. To help
this sham republic out of |
chronic difficulties and
develop its great natural
resources, both the Taft
and Wilson administra-
tions have extended or Imposed
financial and military supervision.
"The year 1011! was marked by an
unprecedented degree of Intervention
In Nlcaraguan affairs by the United
States** Chester Lloyd Jones writes In
his bowk, "Caribbean Interests of the
United States. "Though the landing
of troops to protect property had been :
frequent, the internal affairs of the
government previously had not been
Interfered with; but this was no
longer to be the case. A note from |
the "United States to Nicaragua had
declared. 'The policy of the govern- j
menC of the United States Is to take
the necessary measures for an ade-
quate legation guard ... to keep
opeu communications and to protect
American life and property.' This
statement was Issued after 125 plan-
ter*, besides many other American
cltlrens, had appealed for aid.
"The Nicaraguan government,
through its foreign minister, had de-
clared It could not give protection, as
all the troops were needed for putting
doWn the rebellion. He had suggested
that the United States act. He used j
the following significant words: 'My
government desires that the United
States guarantee with Its forces se-
curity for the property of American
citizens In Nicaragua and that they ex-
tend this protection to all the Inhabi-
tants of the republic.'"
In the late summer of 1012 American
marines were landed; protection was
given to the railway property and the
government In power was assisted In
the capture of several disputed towns.
President Taft had ordered a regiment
of Infantry to embark and perhaps
planned a complete cleanup, but over-
night decided that perhaps Americans
would not approve too evident a use of
force, and countermanded the order. In
all, about 2,000 American sailors and
marines took part In the operations.
After a month's fighting Admiral
Southerland accepted the surrender of
Mena, the chief rebel, with 700 men.

Raise High Priced Wheat
on Fertile Canadian Soil
Canada extends to you a hearty invita-
tion to settle on her FREE Homestead
land* of 160 acre* each or securesome
of the low priced lands in Manitoba,
Saikatchewan and Alberta. This year wheat is higher but
Canadian land just as cheap, so the opportunity is more at-
tractive than ever. Canada wants you to help feed the world
by tilling some of her fertile soil—land similar to that which
during many years has averaged 20 to 45 bushels of wheat
to the acr®. Think of the money you can make with wheat
around $2 a bushel and land so easy to get. Wonderful
yields also of Oats, Barley and Flax. Mixed farming
in Western Canada is as profitable an industry as
grain growing.
The Government this year is asking fanners to put In-
creased acreage into grain. Militaryservice is not com-
pulsory in Canada but there is a great demand for farm
labor to replace the many young men who have volun-
teered for service. The climate is healthful and agreeable,
