EASY WAY TO HEAL COMMON SKIN-TROUBLES A Baltimore doctor suggests (his simple, but well-tried and inexpensive home treatment for people suffering with ecze ma, ringworm, rashes and similar Hon ing, burning skin troubles. At any reliable druggist's get a jar of reslnol ointment and a cake of reslnol soap. These are not at all expensive. With the reslnol soap and warm water bathe the affected parts thoroughly, until they are free from crusts and the skin is softened. Dry very gently, spread on a thin layer of the reslnol ointment, and cover with a light bandage, if necessary, to protect the clothing. This should be done twice a day. Usually the distress ing itching and burning stop with the first treatment, and the skin soon be comes clear and healthy again unless the trouble la due to some serious internal disorder.

Alkali Makes Soap Bad for Washing Hair Most soaps and prepared shampoos con tain too much alkali, which is very in jurious, as It dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle. The best thing to use is Just plain mul sified cocoanut oil, for thla la pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats the most expensive soapa or any thing else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store, and a few ounces will last the whole family for months. 81mply moisten the hair with water and rub It in, about a teaspoonful is all that U required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thor oughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and Is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust, dirt and dandruff. Advertisement.

But the paralysis that bound her snapped like an over-taut wire when she saw Pollock's hand slipping back to hU hip pocket. Now she matched savagery with savagery. When, In answer to her cry of warning, Langdon struck up the treacherous hand and sent the revolver spinning to the floor. It was she who sprang forward and snatched It out of reach of the groping flngera of the fighters. She was realizing how that the older man was no match for the clean-Umbel lawyer, and Pollock himself. In spite of the fictitious strength born of the brandy, waa beginning to feel a foretaste of de feat. He knew he could not win with hU hands, and, robbed by chance of hia re volver, hla bloodshot eyes searched the room for a weapon and fell at last upon the slender little sword which was part of Mary's costume. A "prop," but a dangerous one, and inch by inch h? fought, not to beat back langdon, but to reach the corner where the sword stood. Feeling him giving way, Langdon pushed hotly forward, raining blows like s flail until, with a cry of triumph, Pol lock twisted away from him and caught i'p the glittering, sharp-pointed weapon. But it was not Laqgdon whom he faced aa he awung back; it was Mary Mary, with a stern, white face and livid lips, ; with his own revolver In her hand. "Go!" ahe breathed. So fiercely, ao contemptuously she uttered the single word, that without a sound he dropped the rapier and slunk out like a beaten hound. ftlll holding the revolver, Mary stool listening till the sound of his footsteps died away, then, turning with a shiver of repugnance, laid the revolver down among the dainty silver of her dress ing table. H struck an Incongruous note, but it wss not that that made her ees widen and her lips suddendy tremblo it waa the reflection of her own face and one white shoulder from which the laces had been turn away. ' Hhtverlng with dread, she lifted her hand and made aa if to touch the snowy flesh, then with a cry flung her arm across her eyes to shut out what she saw. "Phlllp-Phillp-r thought It was there!" she wailed. "Oh, tell me It's not tell me it's not" and flinging herself Into his arms she burst into tumultuous sobs. . v As if the tears were a nreconcerted signal, the hovering men now crowded Into the room. Daniels, still livid with emotion; Ciex; two voluable musicians who had arrived early for a final or chestra rehearaal; the atage crew In their overalls and even Jerry, unable at last to atay away. But It was the cry of Gez that roused her. "My Ood! the won't be fit to play to night this ends the show!" "Tonight?" she echoed, lifting her head and pressing her palms against her tarn pies. "Tonight? 1 had forgotten to night!" "But tonight Is the only tiling you must remember," put In Philip sternly. "You must forget all that haa just passed and think of Nora." "I know." she breathed, stifling back a sob, "I know!" Then her head went up with a piteous bravery, and a smile crept through her t'ars as, turning to FIRST NATIONAL SELLSJUILDING A. . Cook of Chicago Buys Struc ture as Investment Leases It Back. TO USE IT FOR ABOUT A YEAR For 1200.000 tha First National bank building, southeast corner of Thirteenth and Farnam streets, has been sold to Albert E. Cook, a wealthy real estate owner of Chi cago. He buys as an investment, says President F. H. Davis of the bank. The latter adds that all the bank fix tures, vaults and safes are Included ir the transfer, and that Mr. Cook may contemplate using the banking room for some similar institution, when the First National vacates to occupy Its own new building at Six teenth and Farnam streets. Tha building probably will not be altered. President Davis asserts, but he says he does not know what other hank ing concern might take over the banking quarters. I, easy Room Back. The big aale was closed Wednesday, when title and possession paused to Mr. Cook after extensive negotiations. It was made subject to all existing leasea. The First National bank and affiliated Insti tutions Immediately rented their present quarters from Mr. Cook, until December 1, and will remain there until the new building Is completed, which they expect to be about November 1. The property Is W IB feet In slse, with a five story stone and brick building. The purchaser Is known In Omaha, although he never lived here, and this is his first acquisition of Omaha property. He is a heavy holder of Improved real estate In the North Side In Chicago, and also of Iowa farm lands near Odebolt. Latham Davis of the First National bank, a brother of President F. II. Davis, secured the purchaser for the bank. Cald well and Bradford of Onawa, la., repre sented Mr. Cook In the deal. The First Trust company will continue to handle the rentals in the building. START TO SINK CAISSON HOLES FOR BANK BUILDING Work on the caisson foundations fot the new First National bank building, Sixteenth and Farnam streets. Is now un der way. The first salsson hole waa started Tuesday, and Manager Nagel, local representative of tha architects, saya he will soon be able to judge how deep the caisson will have to ba sunk. A total of thirty-seven are required to give the fourtoen-story building a solid foundation. It Is ninety-five feet to rock, but if satisfactory ground Is found at a lesser depth the caissons will not be put down that deep, he says. Pictures, by Essanay the director she said gently, "I shall be ready tonight, Mr. Gex. Nothing In tha whole wide world shall interfere with my work now! Phil If you'll wait a bit outside my door, I'll dress." With murmured rasps of relief which grew to voluble gossip outside, tha men shuffled through the door; but when Langdon was on the threshold Mary's voice stopped him. "What shall I do with the revolver, Phil?" she asked, and there was a tremor In her voles. "I don't think David ought to have It." "I should say not," he said shaply. "Better keep. It for your ' own protec tion." Mary shivered at the words, so om inous In their suggestion of the possible repetition of the scene just past, and her fingers trembled ss she drew on her filmy blouae. "1 can cry tomorrow." she whispered to her own reflection. "Tomorrow I can be Just a woman; but tonight I am Mary Page, the atar. Tonight I am Nora!" And as If the mere word was a draught of fresh power, she smiled away her tears; and when she pinned on her smart little hat, her hands were steady and her eyes bravely serene. It was a serenity that did not falter even when Pollock sprang out of the shadows st the doorway with an Inco herent plea for forgiveness; abasing him self huskily in a last desperate cry for pity in the name of his love. But there waa no pity in Mary's glance when she looked Into Ills bloodshot eyes and when his voice faltered Into alienee his own tones rang crisp and cold. "I do not understand your kind of Jove, David, and I cannot forgive you again. I can only beg you never to speak to me that I may have at least a chance to forget." With head erect she went forward to where Langdon wss waiting by the taxi, but with er foot on Its step she turned again and said distinctly: "I have kept your revolver for my own protection." Nine words coldly spoken snd over heard by half a score of casual loungers. Nine words that were 'aoon forgotten amid the rush and excitement of the triumphant hours thst followed, but words thst slipped like a flame from Up to lip with the coming of another day. To Mary herself the words meant lit tle, and were Indeed no more than a girlish bit of bravado a rebuke and de fiance In one and It was as such that Pollock received them, overshadowed aa they were by the greater hurt of her preceding worda. Ha wlnoad at tha thought or his de feat at Langdon s hand and his cowed retreat from Mary's room, but it waa her chUl, "I do not understand your kind of lore, David." that bit the deep est. Why couldn't she understand? he aaked himself bitterly. Didn't she real ise that there was a heart hunger be side which tha pangs of physical star vation were as nothing? Couldn't she understand that there waa a love that was like fire in a man's veins? Had ho been so dumb In his pleadings that ha had taught her nothing end did tha faot that he paid her the highest honor he could in asking her to be his wife count for so little. The endless questions became a tor ture to him, ss he strode up and down the narrow street, with the eyes of hia chauffeur furtively watching him. (To Be Con'.lnjcd Tomorrow.)
