when Judge Davis overruled the mo-
ticn Of the defense to set Ray Plan
schmidt at liberty because he has
been held in Jail for perion longer
than the constitution allows to elapse
before trial Is given.
The defense won a point almost as
big, however, when Judge Davis re-
fused to allow John e. Wall, the attor-
ney who was most effective in secur-
ing conviction in the first trial.
from appearing as one of the counsel
for the state.
The defense had seriously expected
to win its contention that Ray Pfan-
schmidt had been held in Jail longer
than the constitutional limit. Judge
Davis, however, held that the various
delays in the specific trial for the
murder Of Charles Pfanschmidt were
not caused by the state. In the opin-
ton, the Judge ruled that Ray
Pfanschmidt must again stand trial.
The trial will begin in the cuort house
in Princeton, January Is.

1t is no secret that the defense Is
counting upon Mrs. Walters 'Rog-

among jurors in her behalf. Within
a short time she will become the
mother of a third child and physi-

lief that the mercury tablets she
swallowed after poisoning her babies

To offset this defense, District At

Mrs. Walters and Lorlys Elton Rog-

IT RUINS HAIR TO
WASH IT WITH SOAP

Soap should be used very sparingly,
if at all, if you want to keep your
hair looking its best. Most soaps
and prepared shafnpoos contain too
much alkali. This dries the scalp,
makes the hair brittle, and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
Just ordinary mulsifed cocoanut oil
(Which is pure and greaseless), is
cheaper and better than soap or any
thing else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfu1s will
cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in. 1t makes an abund
ance of rich, creamy lather, which,
rinses out easily. removing every par
ticle of dust, dirt, dandruff and ex-
cessive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly. and it leaves the scalp
soft, and the hair fine and silky,
bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy to
manage.
You can get mulsi6ed cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, and few ounces
will supply every member of the
family for months.
