Alkali Makes Soap
Bad For Washing Hair
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali, which is very
injurious, as it dries the scalp and
makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain
mulsiffed cocoanut oil, for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very
cheap, and beats the most expensixe
soaps or anything else all to pieces.
You can get this at any drug store,
and a few ounces will last the whole
family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in., about a teAsooonful is
f all that is required. It makes an.
cleanses thoroughly and rinses out
easily.. The hair dries quickly and
evenly, add is soft, fresh looking,
bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to han
dle.. Besides, it loosens and takes
out every particle of dust, dirt and
dandruff. Advertisement
A Sure Way To
End Dandruff
There is one sure ,way that has
never failed to remove dandruff at
'once, and that is to disolve 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), ap
ply 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 com
pletely dissolve- and entirely destroy
every single sign and trace of it, no
matter how much dandruff yon may
. have.
Yon 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.

OH, MR. LANDLORD!
HAVE SOME MERCY
Senate Bill Would Make Delta
quent Tenant Here Vassal
of Angry Owner.
-
IS STREHLOW BEHIND IT?
Your boots, your overcoat, your
piano, and even the potatoes that
grow in your garden may be taken
from you on very short notice by the
landlo&d if you get in arrears with
your rent, providing the bill now in
the state senate is passed.
A slow awakening has iust begun
to occur on this bill. It, was rather
slyly handled, so that it has received
little nublicitv.
While Senators C. E. Samuelson of
Hildreth and VV. Soost of Magnet in
troduced the measure and are taking
the responsibility for it, it is coming
to be well understood that Jt was
really fathered by Senator R. C.
Strehlow of Omaha, who is him
self a landlord and owner oj the
Streh low apartments m Omaha.
The bill would make delinquency
in rent a chattel' mortgage forthwith
on all personal property on the
premises. Yes, and it would include
crops growing, or in the bins of the
granary. It would include practically
everything that is loose and movable,
which has not standing against it a
prior hen of record.
How It Might Work.
Thus e farmer paying cash rent
would have to stand by and see his
grain hauled off and his horses led
away by the landlord if he hadn't the
ready cash to meet the rent bill the
i very day it became aue.
i Thus the retailer who sends out a
$150 bill of furniture to a home, takes
a $20 payment down and agrees to
take the rest in monthly installments
would' see his furniture hauled away
from the customer's home if the cus
tomer became delinquent in his house
For the landlords would grab every
thing in sight in accordance with the
provisions of this bill. In-England a
law such as this prevails, and persons
are afraid trtloan a wagon or a fiddle
to a neighbor over night, fearing that
he may be delinquent in his rent to
such an extent that the landlord will
come and sweep the place clean of
everything.
Gumshoe Jobbery.
So nuietlv have the senators worked
with this bill that the farmers
throughout the state have not discoV'
ered their corn was in danger of be
ing shucked out of the field by the
landlord on a moment's notice. So
silently have they worked that the re
tailers did not know a bill of goods
they send out on credit to a renter
may be snapped up by the landlord
the moment it reaches the premises.
So slyly have they worked that the
coal man did not know the coal he
sends out on credit to a renter is apt
to be shoveled out of the renter's
cellar andhauled off by the landlord;
and the jeweler doing a credit busi
ness did not realize that the diamonds
he sells on credit might be adorning
the fingers of his customer s landlord
before they have the price tag fairly
removed.
That Mighty Howl.
Some of the merchants throughout
the state and in Omaha only recently
discovered the bill was in existence.
They howled. When the farmers dis
covered it, they howled. I he howl
was general, except from the land
lords.
Then a kind of understanding was
reached. Itwas understood, or at
least the retailers in Omaha under
stood from Senator Strehlow, that
there was to be a hearing on the bill
before it should be reported out of
the committee on miscellaneous. So
they rested. A few days ago. Secre
tary Metcalfe of the Associated Re
tailers of Omaha wrote to Lincoln to
know mpre about this hearing and
learned, to his surprise, that the bill
had been quietly reported out of the
committee andNno hearing was ever
called.
The retailers are alarmed over the
secret progress the bill is making and
will now protest it to the end. They
are hoping to interest the farmers
throughout the state to oppose it also,
on 'account of the direct effect it
would have on the renter.
Big Demand for Grain,
With the Receipts Heavy
Though the grain storage space is
constantly Decoming less, receipts
particularly corn, continue heaw'
there having been 164 carloads of this
cereal on the market. Corn prices
hold up well, it selling at 95 to 96
cents per bushel, a quarter higher
than" Wednesday. Dealers are begin
ning to believe that farmers have
given up the idea of realizing $1 per
bushel on their corn and are letting
go of their holdings.
The demand for corn right now is
better than at any time during the
winter, large quantities being bought
tor shipment to the southern planta
tions, there to be fed. Besides, even
with the high prices, there is a good
deal going to the feed lots out in the
state and over -in Iowa, where farm
ers and feeders are finishing off steers
for market.
Wheat was UP a cent, selling at
I. to $1.. Receipts were com
paratively light for the middle of the
week, there being thirty-four carloads
on tne market. 1
Oats were practically unchanged
from Wednesday, though, if anything,
a bit higher, selling at 54-K to 55
cents per bushel. Receipts were
twenty-four carloads.
Comes On Crutches to'
Talk 1o the Credit Men
Fifteen men are coming from Lin
coln today to attend the dinner
given for tho credit men of Omaha
and the state at th: Hotel Fontenelle.
This info.mation comes from E. W.
Nelson, credit man of Rudge &
Guenzel of Lincoln. Mr. Nelson is
himself to"tx here, and i- to be one
of the speakers. He is roraing on
crutches. Some five or six weeks ago
his leg was broken. When he wrote
he would attend the meeting, he said
not a word about the mishap which
had befallen him. So those in charge
of local arrangements put him on the
program for a talk. When he learned
of this he confessed th'.t his leg was
broken, but gamely sad he would ap
pear on the program even though on
crutches, for he was anxious to do
anything tha would help the credit
business of The itate to get on a
sounder besis. '

FRUITGROWERS TO
BAHLEWITH PESTS
Bugs Have Become Alarmingly
pestrnctive to All Sorts
of Vegetables.
UNIVERSITY HELPING OUT
I
For several years the insect pests
preying upon the common garden
vegetables, such as potatoes, cab
bage, cucumbers, melons, squashes,
peas, beans, radishes and turnips have
become alarmingly 'destructive. So
much so that these vegetables have
become unprofitable to grow in this
county. The directors of the Omaha
Fruit Growers' association decided
that, if possible, something had to he
done to stjop the ravages of these lit
tle pests.
They applied to the extension di
vision of the state university, where
they got in touch with Prof. M. H.
Schwenk, who came to Omaha last
Saturday and appeared before a large
and enthusiastic audience of fruit and
vegetable growers. While these in
sect pests have been reducing the
quantity of these vegetables, caus
ing an increase in price, Prof.
Schwenk has been working overtime
to find means toucontrol them and in
nearly every instance has succeeded.
He explained. to the growers the
result of his experiments, which all
seem very practical. Much extra labor
and considerable expense will be re
quired to free our vegetables from
these pests, but it can be done. Since
the high price of meat products, flour,
eggs and butter, etc., vegetables have
become an important article in the bill
of fare. While means have been
found to control the insect pests of
the potato, the most serious condition
is caused by a fungus disease which
is new to us in this section. This
new fungus is called "wilt," which
causes the stalks to die when the po
tatoes are about half grown. "Wilt"
is the cause of the black streaks found

If the seed potatoes planted con
tain these black streaks they will re
produce the fungus. Therefore, good
pure seed is in great demand.
Manv of the members of the Omaha
Fruit Growers' association grow some
vegetables for market. A large in
crease of fresh, pure vegetables will
mean much saving to the Omaha con-summers.
Omaha Boj Makes
Great Record in
Uncle Sam's Navy
Promotion in the navy has been re
markably speedy for Henry Preis
man, 19-year-old Omaha lad, who is
home for ten days on furlough to visit
his parents, Mr. and Mrs. William
Preisman, 2721 South Tenth street.
Only last October he joined the ser
vice here as an apprentice seaman, at
$17 a month, plus clothing and "keep."
Already he is ranked as yeoman third
class and has been drawing the
doubled salary of that petty officei
rank for some time. Furthermore, he
is now in line for annual additional
promotions.
"Life in the navy is great," he de
clares. "I'm going to stay with it,
and also get some of my Omaha pals
to join."
Upon enlisting here last fall he was
sent to the naval training station at
Great Lakes, near Chicago. Within
k week the authorities there learned
that he was experienced in stenog
raphy and bookkeeping. They tried
him out at the office duties of a veo
man and he promptly "made, good"
and was promoted to regular work
in the court martial and later in the
paymaster offices.
Night study at Commercial High
school gave Henry his first business
training. His parents were born in
Austria, but are naturalized Ameri
cans and have lived in Omaha for
years. Henry is enthusiastic over
Uncle Sam's navy and his family
and friends are proud of his patriotism
and rapid progress so far.

WORKMEN JUMP TO
SAVE THEIR LIVES
Interior Decorators Take Fly
' ing Leap Through Air When
Platform Crashes Down.
ACT LIKE HUMAN FLIES !
-Quick acrobatic work ann presence
of mind probably saved two interior
decorators from a serious fall from
a twenty-foot scaffold onto the tile
floor of the postoffice corridor Thurs
day morning.
Rex Thomas, 109. South Seven
teenth street, escaped with a badly
wrenched wrist, caused by hanging
with one arm from the top of a col
umn for several minutes, until Fore
man George Miller, loll North Thirty-sixth
street, set a ladder below him.
Olin McDonald, Thomas' room
mate, suffered a sprained knee in the
accident. Both men returned to work
after resting and being bandaged.
The two workmen were on a plank
at the top of the sraffolu, cleaning and
redecorating the ceiling. When other
workmen below moved the scaffold,
Thomas and McDonald lost their
balance. ,
Thomas managed to jump from the
falling plank and luing with one arm
to the top of a column until Miller
rescued him several minutes later. Mc
Donald jumped some distance to an
other scaflfo' 1 o Save himself from
the twenty-foot fall to the hard floor.
The falling plank ruined a section
of marble wainscoting in the corridor,
and falling buckets of cleaning fluid
were spilled over the floor. The
Thompson company of St. Joseph has
the contract for the rork. Their
workmen are said to have rad another
narrow escape there recently.
