ELLIOTT DOUBTS YARN WASHINGTON, Feb. 14. Representative Everett Sanders, of Indiana, has returned from Panama with a fish story that causes his colleague. Representative Richard N. Elliott, to remark that "plain congressmen can best the president-elect catching fish, and can tell a better fish story than Mr. Harding." "President-elect Harding," said Mr. Elliott, "never claimed to have hooked a tarpon longer than six or seven feet. But now comes Sanders, who says he was using an eight-pound fish for bait when a shark 8 feet long grabbed fish, hook and everything and started for Davy Jones's locker. "But Everett, notwithstanding he was down there for his health, fought the man-eater for 40 minutes, then pulled him up, harpooned him and yanked him on deck of the boat. "All I've got to say about it is that Congressman Sanders will have to show me a picture of the man-eater. And he needn't try any fake picture, either. I know all about how these picture guys fake things nowadays.''

rid of dandruff, for it will starve your hair and ruin it if you don't. It doesn't do much good to try to brush or wash it out. 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. 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. You will find, too. that all itching

and digging of the scalp will stop, and

your hair will look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store. It is inexpensive and tour ounces is all you will need, no matter how much dandruff you have. This simple remedy never fails. Ad-

Buying Furniture with the Assurance of Lowest Prices, Dependable Quality and Intelligent Service

The Reed Furniture Go. insures its cutsomers that the prices in this store are the very lowest obtainable for Quality Merchandise and Reliable Service

because every piece in the store is being offered at the new lower-price levels, this means an actual regular reduction of 10 to 35 per cent. Our annual January sale is over, but there remains many items that will be sold at "Odds and Ends" prices with special reductions up to 50 or one-half the former prices.

None of our merchandise was ever marked at the highest obtainable prices. Practicallyall of it was contracted for before the rise last July. Much merchandise has arrived since January 10, purchased at the great furniture markets in Chicago and Grand Rapids at new low price levels, which means from 10 to 35 per cent less than "peak" prices. February will witness many frantic highly colored appeals to the public to buy home furnishings at startling reductions. A few person will be influenced by the loud noises, but a sober, careful, thoughtful comparison will convince quickly the prospective home furnisher that the prices at this reliable store are so low if not lower than those to be found anywhere and the quality will be absolutely guaranteed to be above the average.

This store always has "specials"' which are sold at or slightly above factory cost in order to stimulate buying on certain days, but in every case the marchandise has merit as is

claimed, and no extravagant claims are made which cannot be backed up to the smallest detail. We give a partial list of the nationatly advertised lines offered which should quickly convince the reader that the merchandise sold here is strictly dependable and that the makers could not permit their goods to be sold at high prices, and thus lower the high opinion the public has bestowed upon these lines is readily seen. Our customers have often remarked upon the pleasant fact that salesmen in the Reed store do not make the extreme effort to "sell" merchandise which is so strenuously practiced nowadays.. Customers arc intelligently and courteously served, but never forced to buy. "Lookers" are as carefully served as the biggest buyers and a welcome smile awaits the most casual shopper. So, then, it IS worth while to shop around for furniture as for anything else, and we invite you to place Reed's on your shopping list and leara from actual experience that "you'll like trading at THIS STORE."
