GRAIN QUOTATIONS
WAGNER'S GRAIN LETTER CHICAGO, Oct. 3. An outburst of bearish Argentine corn news overnight, slow cash corn demand, reports of grave rail strike dilemma have interfered with grain. Market acting easy through doubt. If a bulge would not follow. One hundred forty thousand Argentine corn bought basis $1.20 in Chicago. Alarm at a chance of a carryover In Argentine of 60 or 80 million corn next May when their new corn is ready for harvest. While five hundred forty thousand oats have been worked in the past two days it is only at the rate of one and one-aalf million per week. Cash corn and oats are about steady. The president's condition and realizing in stocks are unsettling factors. Some cash men say the recent ruch for cash corn will be over today or Saturday. CHICAGO GRAIN RANGE Furnithed by E. W.

Toss to Determine Who Gets Evening's Pleasure (San Francisco Bulletin) The equality of the sexes is producing many problems which are not nearly so difficult as they seem. It is al la matter of applying a little common sense to their solution. Common sense and a sense of humor will settle any difficulty. For example, we heard
the other day of a couple whose one and only trouble was that both were clever and each was jealous of the other's success in conversation. Along came a man with a story but which fitted their case exactly. They listened and took the hint. He said: "I knew a man who was married to a very clever woman who would insist upon getting into the limelight whenever he was occupying it. He, too. was clever, and also jealous. He
hated to see her shine as she to see him shining. She would spoil his jokes by giving the point before he came to it, and he would yawn when she was telling a story. Then one evening she came to him with the proposition that they should go fifty-fifty. Instead of wrangling they should toss up. If she won the toss it was to be her evening. He would sit back and listen, and even help along by reminding her of clever things he knew she could say. If he won the toss, she
could listen and prompt him. She found it hard on his evenings, but how she enjoyed it when it was her turn to be in the spotlight. Thereafter they were both happy, though she did accuse him of tossing with a twoheaded coin whenever he won two nights in succession." The story got abroad, and when they were in company the word would be passed around that Jane or Jim must have won the toss, but it proved a happy solution of the domestic problem.

lie in the kitchens, and now and then play their music; some are coated wtih dustin their owners' works, but very many have been broken up to save storage room. "Will the "hurdy-gurdy' come back?" A maker to whom the question was put shook his head sadly. "I doubt it," he answered. The
war has ruined the trade. New organs cor. not be made. Steel wire is up 500 per cent,; wood can not be obtained. "Before the war two people with an organ would often start out at 6 R.m and play till midnight. They mado $9.25 to $10 a week, that is all. You see, they are not willing to do that now, after the munitions. Of course, there will be blind men who will have

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 retiring; 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. M You will find, too, that all itching iM
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. Adv.

You have observed that owners are usually proud of the Essex. They manifest it in their speech, their driving and the particular way in which they care for their car. Such enthusiasm is natural to all who know it You catch some of its influence if you watch the Essex and the owner in action. Note Their Joy As They Drive People drive the Essex with evident joy. The buoyancy of its response to the throttle is distinctive. Haven't you noticed how Essex drivers seerr to fit in with the action of the car? They are alert and confident. The Essex responds to every whim of the driver. It glides as smoothly as a canoe drifting down stream or rushes silently by with the speed and freedom of a bird. It is a quality that accounts for motoring pleasure. All cars run, no one questions that. Most of them travel fast enough. But there is a difference in the way they run. The Essex is speedy without offering protest in sound of effort. Do They Analyze the Cause? Ce -inly most owners do not examine the causes which account for Essex performance.
When they tell you of its buoyancy they do not, as a rule, explain that light weight, a powerful motor and a rigid frame, all carefully balanced, is the explanation. Xor do they mention mechanical construction when they tell you how easy it is to drive the Essex, or how comfortably it rides. They Accept it as They Do its Performance Of course we know why the Essex is giving such satisfaction. It is a new type. Because of its lightness as well as durability, its economy and at the same time performance, men accept it as it was designed to be, the car of tomorrow, the embodiment of all that is desirable in both the light weight car and the large costly automobile. , It meets all service needs as owners of large, costly cars have learned to know those qualities. Yet it is moderately priced, and the operating cost is comparable to that of light cars. The Essex has proved that performance, durability, moderate cost and economy of operation may all be found in one car. The Essex calls for little attention. It is free from many annoj'ances that interfere with the pleasure of motoring. It is because the Essex meets every motoring need witnout requiring much attention to keep it in running condition, that people speak of it as they do.
