STATE TO SAVE HALF
MILLION ON STAMPS
War Stamps Cost Omaha Neat
Sum on Large Real Es-
tate Transfers.
TAX ON WINE TO REMAIN

The elimination of some features Of
the stamp act as proposed by the
conference committee of congress
would cut out the emergency stamp
tax on practically everything except
on wine, in the opinion of Deputy
Revenue Collector North of Ne
braska.
The sale OF stamps out of the Oma-
ha office for the various legal papers
and all such documents requiring the
federal stamp under the emergency
act, amounted roughly to $450,000 a
year. This was for stamps in Ne
braska alone.
Mr.. North estimates that the stamps
on wine, which will be about all that
will be left if the elimination bill goes
through, will amount to only about
$4,000 in Nebraska. 4...
Big Stamp on Deeds.
One of the biggest item which the
proposed amendment would seem to
eliminate is the stamping of deeds in
the transfer of real estate. This has
been big item in Omaha, particu-
larly when it is remembered that some
Of the biggest sales Of high priced
property ever made in Omaha have
been made since this emergency rev.
enue stamp act has been in effect, and
many thousands of dollars worth Of
stamps have been put on the deeds
recorded here in the last year.
The published reports of the agree
ment of the conference committee are
to the effect that stamps are to be
eliminated on bonds, debentures, GER
tificates of stock, agreement of sale,
conveyance, warehouse and custom
house receipts, foreign steamship tick
cts and Pullman car tickets. Also it
is understood to do away with the
stamp on kilograms and long distance
telephone calls, amounting to over rs
cents in tolls.

Hair Often Ruined
By Washing With Soap

Soap should be used very carefully,
II you want to keep your hair looking
its best. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much alkali.
This dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle, and ruins 1t.
The best thing for steady use is
just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil
(which is pure and greaseless) and Is
better than the most expensive soap
or anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub It in. 1t makes an abundance
of rich, creamy lather, which rinses
out easily, removing every particle of
dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil.
The hair dries quickly and evenly,
and II leaves the scalp soft, and the
hair fine and silky, bright, lustrous,
fluffy and easy to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, it's very cheap, and
a few ounces will supply every mem
