Don't neglect it. Kill it in the first stages. Cold germs enter the body thru the note and throat. At the first sign of a cold use MENTHO-CAMPH.

Alkali Makes Soap Bad For Washing Hair - Most soaps and prepared sham poos 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 ' mulsifjed cocoanut oil, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats the most ex pensive 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 wa ter and rub It in, about a teaspoon ful is all that is required.' It makes n abundance of rich, creamy lath r, cleanses thoroughly, and rinses mt easily. The hair dries quickly md evenly, and is soft, fresh look ing, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to handle. Besides, it loosens ana akes out everyTparticle of dust, dirt nd dandruff. Adv. Ifrs. David Martin. 107 8.

Women of Omaha are stirred bv the disclosures of vice conditions in Omaha made by The Bee. ' They are marshalling forces to create a public sentiment which will stand behind city, state and government attempts to lessen the evil. Four meetings have already been arranged to discuss the matter within the next fortnight. They are : A private meeting social workers Monday night. An executive meeting of Douglas county W. C. T. JJ. Tuesday at 2 p. m. in the Y. W. C. A. Omaha Woman's club, political and aocial science de partment program on "Social Hygiene," Monday, January 27, 2 :30 p. m. in the Y. W. C. A. Douglas county W. C. T. U. institute, February 1, in the Y. W. C. A. Social conditions will also form thebut chief topic of discussion at the Ne braska charities and corrections con ference to be held in Lincoln, Feb ruary 2-4, according to Mrs. Draper fcmith. Proposed , legislation wiHJ be discussed. Campaign State Wide. "A state-wide campaign against the social evil is now being outlined by the Nebraska W. C. T. U. now that prohibition is won," said Dr. Jennie Callfas. ' i - "We tan now get behind the movement to suppress vice and con centrate our energies on moral edu cation," said Mrs. H. G. Claggett, Douglas county chairman. "It is imperative that every mem ber of the executive committee and every departmental superintendent should be present at the meeting Tuesday," said Mrs, J. A. Dalzell. Mrs. W. T, Graham, Mrs. H. N. Craig, Mrs. William Berry, Mrs. Mattson and Mrs. M. D. Vienb. are other. welfare workers interested in Tuesday's meeting. "To close the city detention hos pital would certainly be a backward step," said Mrs. Claggett. "The best way to treat fallen women is on a custodial farm, away from city influences. Lacking that, we women shall stand behind any remedial work that can be done, even if the hospital inmates should be moved to the new jail addition," saiq Mrs. Claggett.' ; Must Take Treatment. "There will always be complaints from some of the patients where ever they are treated against their will, but treated they must be, even against their will, for they are men aces to the public health." "Something must be done. Right or wrong, we must act according .o our best judgment," said Mrs. Dra per Smith, leader of the program on social hygiene for thev Woman's club, one week from Monday. All angles of "the local situation, bills pending in tiic legislature, and government attempts to handle the situation, will be discussed. Dr, Robert Leavens of the Unitarian church, will talk on the local condi tion. Outside speakers, possibly from Lincoln, will discuss other phases. "We need action," said M:s. Smith. "We can't afford to waste a lot of time merely to discuss the matter. Those women must be cared for, and the state or city must take the necessary steps, or legis!--tion, to do it. Organization of wo men, without funds, can do nothing-" . 'Tt isn't surprising that we laymen don't, know what to do when medi cal men, themselves, do not agree any more than they did in the 'flu' situation," said Mrs. Smith. Charities Endorse Work. At a meeting of the advisory corrr mittcc of the Associaties Charities composed of representative Social workers of our city, held Thurs day noon at the Chamber of C6m merce, after an address by Dr. Pal mer Findlcy, medic! director of the Detention home, the following resolution was unanimously adopted. ' "Resolved that we, the social workers of Omaha, heartily endorse the work of the Detention home in the care ana cure 'of unfortuncle women who there receive treatment for diseases that arc not only harm, ful to themselves but of the gravest menace to Hie community and so ciety as a' whole.
