S B
For Extraordinary Services.
A few months ago the Rational Red
Cross executive committee at Wash
ington decided to award a medal or
badge to the women in connection
with their Red Cross activities. This
medal or badge to be given them upon
'Completion of a certain number of
. hours of Red Cross work, i
" The conditions and instructions
.relative to the awarding of 'this
recognition of service have been
issued and information relative to
same is obtainable at any of the chap
ter offices in this state, or can ut
secured at the state office.
The national bureau of standards
at Washington has placed its approval
upon the medals and badges to be
awarded, and they will be ready for
distribution at an early date, prob
ably in two or three weeks. This
medal or badge is of nation charac
ter, indorsed by the American Red
Cross official board,of which Presi
dent Wilson is president.
, This service emblem is not an ex
pensive article, but is given as a
recognition to the women who have
rendered extraordinary service. Un
doubtedly a great many will be dis
tributed in ' this state, as the show
1 ing of Nebraska is in the first rank
j in connection with Woman's service.

ALUM WATER RESTORES
COLOR TO GRAY HAIR
A pleasant, quick, lasting-, harmless and
sore way to brin back the natural, original
color to white, gray or faded hair. You can
havehair always of youthful, natural eolor,
fluffy, glossy, brilliant, clean and odorless,
with clean" scalp. Beau, enehante! It's
a joy forever. Simply dissolve one bottle
of ovelo powder in two ounces of water,
moisten the hair with some of the solution,
and while yet damp, rinse the hair well in
tepid alum water (two heaping teaspoons of
powdered alum to one quart), then rinse
well In plain tepid water. That is all. lt
acts like magic. Ovelo powder is inert, and
so absolutely harmless that a child could
drink the solution. Any dnisrfst can easily
tstt ovelo powder for you. If he happens to
not have it in stock. Advertisement.

considered by some extravagant in these times. Value in use considered, they are an econemy, a

Hudson Seal, Natural Rat, Mole, Nutria, etc.
FUR CAPES The newest garment. Many are
really hybrid, either cape or coat. Very short

FUR SCARFS Fox, Marten, Seal, Lynx, in the
new shapes. Exceedingly wide variety,
FUR MUFFS Barrel, flat or melon shapes, oi
all the furs you know, and perhaps some you
haven't seen.
NOTE THIS Your early bought .skin is apt to be better because
it's bought early, no matter from whom you buy
BUT, you can't afford to buy Furs except with the guarantee of
RELIABLE sellers. ,
ml 1 .
The Kilpatrick Store has been doing this for 50 years.
Included in this sale at special prices will be a
large collection of Pile Fabric Coats, the Fur
