To Repeal Wheel Tax-Moline's
wheel tax ordinance. an enactment of
the last city administration and a
measure that has been rather indifer-
emily enforced, seems doomed to eras.
ure. City Attorney Shallberg yester-

meeting read an opinion he had pre-
pared at request OF Commissioner c.
W johnson, in which the present
wheel tax ordinance of the city of
Moline is declared to be Illegal insofar

reading of this opinion there was pre-
sented proposed ordinance that alb
solutely repeats the wheel tax ordi-
nance. On motion of Commissioner
Johnson the repeal ordinance was laid
over till Aug. IS, but there seems TO
be no question about it's unanimous
passage at that time

Health and Beauty Hints
BY MRS. MAE MARTYR

lent hair and scalp tonic: To a half
pint alcohol add a half-pint water,
then pour in one ounce quinzoin.
Massage a little into the scalp two
or three times a week for a while
and you will find dandruf or oili-
ness disappears and the hair will
grow long and silky and be easy to
do up.
Maude B.: II you want health and
strength you must keep the blood
free of poisonous accumulations. and
unless you attend to this immed-
lately serious results may follow.
Make up and take this tonic: Dis
solve an ounce kardene in a half-pint
alcohol, then stir in one-half cup
full sugar and hot water TO make
full quart. Taking a tablespoonful
of this mixture before meals rids the
system OF impurities, rebuilds waste
tissue and makes you we'll and
strong. You will find this kardene
tonic splendid for clearing the skin
Of pimples and sallowness.
Mary: Large pores can be reduced
and the skin cleared Of local impur-
ties If you use my almoZoin cream
jelly. This is inexpensive and should
be on every woman's dresser. To
hAlf-pint cold water add an ounce
almozoin and two teaspoonfuls glyc-
crime. Let stand several hours be-
fore using. Used freely. IL works
wonders with the skin and no mat
ter how sallow or unnatural II may
have been, after a short while the
skin grows soft and beautiful.
Wrinkles and fine lines vanish as II
by magic and hollows soon round out
whenever almozoin cream-jelly Is
used.
Madge: II is an easy matter to re-
gain your former weight without
dieting or indulging in violent exer-
else, II you employ the parnotis
treatment. which is inexpensive and
easy to prepare. Get four ounces
parnotis and dissolve in n pint and
half of hot water. Strain when cool
and take tablespoonful before
meals. Parnotis is quite harmless
and it's use will gradually dissolve
the fat and give you your youthful
figure without leaving the skin wrin-
killed. or flabby.

Cooking With Cream

To cook with Van Camps is like cooking with
cream. 1t gives richness and flavor such
milkman's milk never gives.
The reason is this: Mi1kman's milk separates.
The butter fat rises and the solids fall When that
milk gets to the cooking it is rarely more than
half milk
Van Camps Is the whole milk. It has an the
butter fat. all the solids, which belong to the
richest milk. You will be surprised when you first
discover how rich the whole milk Is

Mrs. c. A: You are running your
hair using soap for shampoo purposes.
The aIkali dries out the scalp and
causes dandruff, and dull, lifeless.
stringy hair. For your case know OF
nothing better than a plain canthrox
shampoo. This makes an abundance
of rich, penetrating lather that thor
oughly cleanses an invigorates. You
will find on using this that, the hair
dries evenly and quickly and takes on
a rich gloss and softness. You can
get canthrox at the drug store, and a
dissolved in a cup of hot
water Is enough for a good shampoo.
Eva: 1t Is distressing to have q
shiny. muddy skin, but that can be cor
rected If you dissolve four ounces
spurmax in one-half pint hot water and
add two teaspoonfuls glycerine. When
cold apply to the skin and rub lightly
until dry. A few times using
cleanses the skin Of impurities and
banishes freckles and tan. You will
find this better than powder, as 1t is
invisible when on and does not rub Of
or spot from perSpiradon.
Nell: Don't worry about the fuZE on
your chin. To rid the skin of the OBJ
jectionable growth, get an ounce OF
delatone at the drug store, and with
water mix some into a paste, then ap-
ply to hairy surface, and after two or
three minutes rub on and wash the
skin carefully While delatone costs q
dollar an ounce. it seldom requires a
second application to completely re-
move superfuous hairs.
M: Expressive eyes never lack in
brilliancy, yet to keep them so 1t is
necessary to give them proper care
and attention. Whenever your eyes
ache or grow tired use an eye tonic,
made by dissolving an ounce OF crys-
tos in a pint of cold water. A few
drops in each eye twice daily quickly
relieves the smart or ache, and aside
from strengthening the eyes gives to
them a remarkable brilliancy and spar
kle.
