A Simple Way to
Remove Dandruff
There is one sure way that has never
failed to remove dandruff at once, and
that is to dissolve it, then you destroy
it entirely. To do this. Just get about
four ounces of plain, common 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
aanarutf will be gone, and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve and entirely destroy every single
nlgn and trace of it, no matter how
much dandruff you may have.
You will find all itching and digging
of the scalp will stop instantly, and
your hair will be fluffy, lustrous,
glossy, silky and soft, and look and
feel a hundred times better. Adv.

sustained in a fall several years ago.
tie was b years of age.
Mr. Juston made his debut in Port
land as a restaurant proprietor 38 years
ago, when with a partner he started
"The Baldwin." at First and Alder
streets. Since that time he conducted
popular-priced establishments .almost
continuously at various downtown loca
tions, until failing health forced him
to turn over his last establishment to
the management of his wife and daugh
ter.
Contract Held nt Cascade LocIm.
During the years 1884 and 1885 Mr.
Juston had charge of what was known
as the Government messhouse at Cas
cade Locks, having a contract for feed
ing the men employed by the Govern
ment in building the locks.
It was while he was there that heavy
snows caused a blockade and two pas
senger trains were held up. Mr. Jus
ton came to the rescue and for a time
fed 700 people at his establishment,
thereby preventing the threatened
famine among the stranded travelers
and the residents of that vicinity. For
his work in that crisis citizens of the
city of Portland rewarded Mr. Juston
with a handsome watch. .
Restaurants Are Opened Up.
After his return from the Cascade
IjOcks Mr. Juston opened up a restau
rant at Fourth and Morrison streets,
known asf'Juston's Java." This was
one of the most famous restaurants of
tnat time. After conducting the restau
rant with Mrs. Juston for 14 years he
opened a new place on Fifth, between
Alder and Morrison streets.
After six years at that location he
moved to the Hotel Scott, at Broadway
ana Asn streets, ana later to the south
east corner of Seventh and Alder
streets, where he established "Juston's
Restaurant. '
He was compelled to give ud this lo
cation in 1910 owing to the fact that
tne building was razed to erect the new
Eilers building. From there he made
his last move to the present location of
his restaurant, at 445 Washington
street.

Portland Is Selected and Bate Set
for December 13 Systematic
and TTnlted Improvement
Efforts Are Object.
ALBANY.. Or.. Nov. 25. (Special.)
Plans for tne formation of a state
good roads association to prepare and
submit to the next Legislature a new
road code for Oregon, with a view to
systematic road improvement through
out the entire state, were launched at
a meeting held in Albany today. The
state meeting is proposed to be held
in the courthouse in Portland, Decem
ber 13.
Today's meeting was called for the
purpose of forming an association in
this county, and this result was ac
complished, but the movement assumed
a state-wide scope when the need of
a new road code for Oregon was
pointed out. and owing to the near
ness of the legislative session it was
determined to call a state meeting at
once. It is probable that before this
meeting similar associations to that
organized here today will be formed in
other counties.
Today's meeting was attended by
delegates from all of the precincts of
Linn County. They were chosen in
meetings held a week ago following
a preliminary convention held here re
cently, when it was determined to
form an organization with a view
toward studying methods whereby
ro.adbulldlng could be put on a more
systematic basis.
Uarrlabarg Man President.
Rex W. Davis, of Harrisburg. was
elected president of the Linn County
Association: M. S. Allen, of Jefferson,
first vice president; A. W. Cormack.
of Tangent, second vice president; A.
C. Schmitt. of Albany, treasurer, and
John R. Penland. of Albany, secretary.
A constitution was adopted declar
ing that the purpose of the associa
tion was to study road-building meth
ods, providing that the association
should be controlled by 39 directors
from the 39 road districts in Linn
County, and providing that anyone
paying a II membership fee could be
come a member. One hundred and
seven members Joined at the meeting
today, and four times that member
ship is expected within a week.
A resolution was passed declaring
that some definite and uniform scheme
of road construction affecting the
state as a whole was needed in Ore
gon, there being many road associa
tions all working toward different
ends. The loss of $855,506 of govern
ment money was further set up as a
possibility if no definite action was
taken before the session of the com
ing Legislature.
Portland Meeting Planned.
In order to present to the Legisla
ture a road bill that has the- approval
and voices the ideas of all sections,
the resolution provides that the Linn
County Association shall endeavor to
arrange for a meeting or representa
tives of the different road associations
with the County Judge and Commis
sioners' Association at Portland dur
ing their session there next month. It
is further suggested that this meeting
Invite the United States office of pub
lie roads to prepare a road code (or
submission to the Legislature.
It is further planned to hold a sec
ond meeting early in January, when
the heads of the road departments of
New York. Massachusetts. California
and Washington and other states con
spicuous for their fine roads shall be
present, and advise the association as.
to what features the Oregon law
should contain. -
The main address of the afternoon
was delivered by State Engineer John
H. Lewis, who expressed his approva
of the resolution that was passed.
The organization which was perfect
ed was the result of a movement start
ed about two months ago by the heads
of the Farmera' Union and the Grange
in this county.
