On, of these I troublemakers is known as sebur’ | hclc durmatltls In whk'h, besid< s itching, there Is the formation of \ thick, yellowish scales around tl.e hair roots. Head lice or pediculosis I capitis is. of course, a common. cause of itching scalp. However,! in a great majority of cawrs of scalp ; itching. no obvious causes can be found. There Is no cruptSon or dis- i < eml ide change in the scalp. Whatever Its cause, ■aver* and prolonged Itching will Invariably result in scratching to relieve It. Ev-1 en where the patient Ivas enough self control to avoid this practice 1 during waking hours, he will give' way during sleep For this reason.' the Itchy scalp often develops in factions at the site of flnger-n ill marks and scabs. This leads to ths formation of past alas, that is. swelling containing a few drops of pus. which break to form scabs.

Local friends were shocked to learn of the tragic accident that befell Sgt. Gordon Shaw, the Decatur recruiting officer, and his family as they traveled westward te.ward a California vacation In an auto collision at Marysville, Kansas, their three month baby was killed and the- other members of the- family were injured. Sgt. Shaw ha< many friends here and In hl* work he has set a fine example ax a representative of Uncle Sam's army. o O Be a comedian If you want to stack up a million dollars While army generals and admirals lead men and fight wars and private individuals devote their life to education, research and atomic science, actors like the late W. C. Fields built large fortunes from laughs. Comedian Fields' estate is estimated at $771,000. which is a right mat sum to be put aside, despite his many years of spendthrift habits. Bob Hope. Danny Kaye Jack Benny and others of Hollywood and radio fame, probably could “buy out” the- board chairmen ami prexl dents of most of America’s biggest industrial concerns, railroads ami Insurance companies. Ami acting isn't sei bad either, if you have your mind on Income-. o o-- — Out The Window: Consider the state of mind of the person who throws things out the window of a moving- automobile or truck or bus. He must be completely unconscious of what he is doing, and must blissfully hedd the illusion that he is the only one- who does it. Suppose he throws out pieces eif paper, sacks, and the- like. He litters the- streets ami highways in a manner he certainly would not want Imitated In front of his own home. And he expose s himself ami eithe r travele rs to the hazard that the- wind might catch the bit of paper ami whip it in front of the driver of some other vehicle-, causing temporary lark eif control leading to a disastrous accidi nt. Suppose he throws out hard objects, such ax empty cans or hotties. He litters the public ways in a disgraceful and also a destructive- way, for pieces eif broken glass or metal may damage his own or some- other fellow's tires. Tills may lead to a blowout causing an accident, or the- heavy object bouncing from the pavement or road Ide may crash through a windshield Certainly no person who gives a robe r thought to the possltrilities, including the possibility that someone might ape his example, would throw any object at all from the window of a vehicle onto the road or street, or the road side. Yet such things get tossed out in prodigious quant Itles. Why?

do not have any rash are usually over-active and over sensitive, and the basis of their trouble Is nervousness. Here general treatment is linpafrtant. Every effort should be i made to prevent exhaustion or fa(tigue. They should-get plenty of rest and sleep, fresh air. sunshine and exercise. If infection has occur- ■ red as a result of the scratching, an I ointment of ammoniated mercury Is iof te n satisfactorily employed. . These persons should wash the hair ■ several times a week, using a 'inclure of green soap Os course. If there Is any conditoln present such as seborrheic I dermatitis. It must be properly treated. This disorder Is not an | easy one to eliminate. Various sulj phur preparations have been em- | Ployed with benefit. Diets low in I fats have been used in some cases, with Improvement. This disorder should be treated by a physician. Questions and Answers A Header: Two and one-half years ago.

Now don’t cry, dear. You don't want to meet your father crying, do you?" She didn’t want that at all The mention of her father checked her. She took a long breath, and pushed back her coat collar so that the grown-up watch would show. Annie came in to carry down the hag. She wanted ever so to kiss Miss Katherine goodbye, but she kept her place in the presence of Mrs. Barlow. Marvell, waiting In the dim hallway, watched them descend the stairs In singe file. He almost expected them to vanish into the shadows at the foot of the staircase. He was trembling a little with excitement Emily peered around uncertainly.

thought, why give her somethingbroken? “We’ll have to have ft fixed in J a shop," he said pinning it back crookedly. She looked at him dubiously—was he sure? Perhaps it had been broken by the rough leap into the cab. She rubbed her finger over the dial for a moment. Then she forgot It In her eager* ness to tell him all about the play. She was in it heart and soul ho could see that. He had no tale that could match it. She was all the parts, and all the players. Ho did not envy the Intensity of her world, he had the same intensity himself for the world he was about to make. What he did wish was that he could touch her for a moment with some charm that would allow them to pretend together. Ho was the audience when he y earned to perform before her and delight her with a hundred magic tricks and trutha But he was only the reflection of her delighted performance. And even had it been passible for him to have told her that they were going away together—what new things they would see, how they would live—ho knew bo could only have arrested her attention, not enchanted it. The lunch was an utter failure and he had planned it so differently. When they got to Sawyer's, it was at the noontime rush. The small noisy restaurant was filled with hearty men. The shells of hundreds of oysters being split open, cracking against each other, rose in waves as forceful as the waters .’rnm which they had been lately dredged. It was getting warmer and the emeu of fish—baked, broiled, fried, raw, stung their nosca Kit shrank back. Marvell realized that here again it was too much of one thing at a time. Having goes thus far wrong, he made matters worse by standing at the oyster bar and calling for two orders of bluopointa She could not reach hers and when be gave bet one from bis plate, she almost made betself sick on the first swallow. Her eyes looked tottured. He felt she was accusing him of unmentionable cruelties and that fils neighbors would begin to comment upon ft. As a matter of fact, bet thoughts were on her mother’s bag which was soiled by shredded sawdust and kicked at by passing feet, ft had so pretty a cover, too Marvell in deviation paid for the uneaten oysters and shouldered her up, bag in one hand, out of the place. This hurt bet dignity more than anything else and riw choked audibly. MarveU set her down abruptly. The next cab took them to the Parker House ta awkard ftlence. But here, too, there wm too much of everything. The vacuum-like room, the hushed steps of the waiters, the heavy silverware and the extra heavy water glasses overwhelmed them both. This is a horrible Unwell, thought MarveU glumly. _ w /To *e CMftoawQ
