A shampoo is supposed to keep hair
and scalp clean and healthy, but 1t
too often leaves the hair and scalp in
any but satisfactory condition. The
hair is made brittle and the scalp is
dried and irrltated.
When shampoo Injuries either hair or
scalp, there is something wrong with
the soap, with the water or with the
rinsmg and drying Of the hair.
The ideal shampoo is one without
soap of any kind, the wheat bran
shampoo.
Take three pounds of wheat bran.
Put this in a large vessel, cover with
water and let it boil and simmer for
hale day over the kitchen range.
Add more water as the bran swells.

From the bottle apply the wheat

head ard in front. Work across the
head, rubbing the mixture well into
the scalp. When the front of the hair

over, throw the hair forward and re-
peat the process with the back of the
head. Then the head will be thorough
ly wetted.
FIJI a wash basin with warm bran
water and wash both hair and scalp
thoroughly. Two waters are better
than one.
Rinse the hair thoroughly, using soft
water IL possible. Use plenty of water,
hot water for three or four rinsings,
and then gradually cool the water to
prevent taking cold.
Rub the head briskly with rough

When the hair is thrown back dry
the front part of the head briskly
and then, sitting in the Sunshine, toss
the hair dry, letting into it and upon
the scalp as much sunshine as possible.
Rub the scalp with the finger tips
until it is in warm glow.
Never put the hair up until it is

When the hair is put up be careful

Clean the pins and haircombs before

To the casual traveller Seville pre-

some attractions of more than ordi-

at Madrid, which are under the pa

as the birthplace and home of the great
painter Murillo Its public buildings
are beautiful, and their traditions go
back to the days of Julius Caesars

Seville. like most Spanish cities,
has one distinguishing object of more
interest than all others. 1t is the Gi-
ralda tower, one of the finest in the
world. whose beautiful proportions rise
grardiy above the city's roofs. The
tower was erected in 1876, and was
consecrated by the Moors to use as
a muezzin tower, from which the faith
full were called to prayer in the ad-
joining mosque. When driven out of
Seville in 1888 the followers of Ma

Seville. one of the ancient capital
cities OF Spain, the seat successively
OF Phoenician, Roman. Gothic, Moor
ish and Spanish rulers, is one OF the
most charming of places for the idler
who wishes to see Spanish life at its
best.
Its climate is warm and delightful.
Flowers bloom in its gardens almost
the year round. The oranges of Sc
vile are esteemed as among the finest
produced in the old world.
Its people are hospitable-"sympat
ico," as the Spanish call any one TAX
ing a kindly interest in another-indo-
lent and gay. They enjoy life as only
southern Spanlard can. taking pro
found pleasure in sociability, in sing
Ing their national songs, in playing
the guitar, and In dancing. They are
as care-free as any people one may
meet in Spain. and though the life of
their city has not the bubbling ex-
ubernnce of that in southern Italy, it
is bright enough to win for Seville the
character of a joyous place.
The Spanish have a proverb that
"He who has seen Seville has seen
marvel They are proud of the
city, Of its antiquity, the character
of its people, and the beauty Of its
daughters.
The houses Of Seville are very old,
some of them dating from the Moor
ish period. 1t is a place of quaint
doorways, odd windows. charming
patios and other characteristic archi-
tectural features Of southern Spain. 1t
is the home of the cloaked gallant
singing a serenade at his ladys bal
cony TO the accompaniment of his
guitar, or standing in the shadow. by
her barred window, whispering sweet
nothings in her ear. 1t is the custom
of Seville to have courting conduct
ed thus, and lovers are jocularl. called
"eaters of iron."

INSPECTION OF OIL.
Inspector Brauch Makes Report or

Pierre, Jan. 16-Emiel Brauch, oil
inspector for the southeastern dis
tr;cs of the state. has Just fled his
annual report with Governor Elrod,
showing the amount OF oil and gas
oline inspected for the year, and the
disposal of funds. He has inspected
I,182, ,445 gallons of gasoline and T.
900, 3e5 gallons of refined oil, the in
spection fees amounting to S6,77I.45
OF this amount $2,e25. 50 was taken
up in the way of salary and expense
OF collection and S., 847.8o was turn
ed into the state treasury.
The report shows that for the
year 3e,o55 gallons of oil were re-
jected for the Standard Oil company
it falling to meet the required gravity
test. For the Penn Oil company,
1o5 gallons OF gasoline was rejected
for failure to reach the gravity test
and $50 gallons OF oil was rejected
for failure to meet the flash test.
Mr.. Brauch gives the present oil
law a strong endorsement and asks
the legislature TO stand by the law as
it is, and not open up the matter and
allow changes to creep in. He says
he has been importuned number OF
times to recommend slight changes
but believes that the law should
stand just as it is, regardless OF the
requests Of the oil companies, it be
ing one OF the best laws in any state

A GRAFT EXPOSED.
State Board Prizes into Kroeger lnsti
tute Affairs, and Refuse to
Grant License.

Aberdeen News, 18th: During
its session in this city the state
board of medical examiners has
probed very deeply Into the affairs
of the Kroeger institute at Eyiph-
any, and some startling facts in
regard to it have been discovered.
This institution was founded some
time ago by the late Father Kroe-
ger, who died late last fall, and
for some time it has been alleged
that it has not lived up to all the
requirements of the state in its
practices. In spite of this fact it
has grown and prospered until its
plant has become worth $50, 900
and its scope of business is said
to extend to many parts of the
United States and some parts Of
Europe. Patients are said to flock
there to become rid of their dis
eases, and the institution has
prospered. Some of the discover
les made are as follows:
In the investigation of the
Kroeger institute at Epiphany
the board found a most startling
condition of things. The diploma
of the late Fother Kroeger was
called for by the board and was
presented to it. Upon inspection
it was found to be small sized
document, pen written and pur-
porting to be from a medical col.
llege that, so far as ascertained
meyer had an existence. It bore
no seal except the gilt seal of the
state board Of health of South
Dakota. The document purport.

Change in Rural Mail Service.

Tha. there is soon to be much
needed overhauling and change
in the rural mail routes of this
county is evident by a communi-
cation under date of January II,
received by the editor of the Her
aid from Senator Kittredge, which
reads as follows:
"Arran n gements have been
made with the postoffice depart
ment for the establishing of the
county system of rural routes in
lf,urnrrranu q, sever al uruer counI1es
in the state. This contemp1ates
complete change of the routes
as now existing and the new sys-
tenn will be arranged in such a
way that every farmer in the
county shall have access to a ru-
raj route. Under the new system
mail can be sent from one part of
L
the county to any other part with
in twenty-four hours. This ar
rangement will very much in
crease the efficiency of the service.
An inspector will be sent later to
arrange for the establishing Of
the system and as0his recommen-
dations will be final the people
should meet him and arrange
the routes in such a way that
each farmer may have proper SER
vice. The routes when once es-
tablished will be made permanent
and care should be taken in thei1
selection"

natl, Ohio, in 1871, and before the
seal of the South Dakota state
board of health was in existence.
The surprising part was that on
the so-called diploma Father
Kroeger obtained a license to
practice in the state, dated Janu-
ary, 1896. and bearing the sigma
ture of the superintendent of the
state board of health who was in
Office at that time, and who alone
was authorized to issue such
license. The present board of
medical examiners has been given
informal ton of the peculiar meth
DDS employed by the Kroeger in
stitute, which, to say the least,
were. startling. The woman who
was the partner of Father Kroe-
ger in the business was present at
the meeting of the board of exam
iners explaining that it was the
wish of Father Kroeger that the
institution be continued after his
death as it WIS before. But ii
was found that the only diploma
which she possessed was given to
her by Father Kroeger, which
could not be recognized by the
board. During her two days visit
in Aberdeen much pleading was
done by her before the board,
which eliminated in her tender
ing the board a letter offering the
sum of $1,000 cash for the coveted
license.
