To Preserve Her Hair

If women would use an Anti-Septic
Oil Shampoo instead Of the soaps and
shampoos now SO commonly used, they
would improve rather than injure the
delicate hair plants.
The hair plant is an oil plant and to
wash it with soaps or shampoos con-
tanning free alkah works great injury.
1t not only cuts the natural oil of the
hair but it destroys the fatty roots of
the hair plant causing the hair to come
out.

ed the business affairs of the tenth
annual state convention, and after
that everything was merriment
Iowa was holding its annual con
vention at Muscatine during the Hi
nOis dates, but Illinois proved too at
tractive and the Iowa convention broke
up this morning and delegates from

well known pilot on the Mississippi IN
the good old steamboat days.
The Iowa delegation arrived here al

along. Prominent among the Iowa Wis
itors was Adolph Angst, Davenport
who was elected at MusCatine as presi-
dent of the Iowa Eagles.
The last business session of the con-
vention this morning was probably the
most interesting of the 1916 gathering
judging from the forbidden tones of
oratory that leaked through the key
hole. Among the speakers was James
5. Perry, secretary of the grand aerie,

Exclusive Jurisdiction.
The right of a nation to exercise
exclusive jurisdiction over its territory
and all persons therein, cited in the
/ fourth article. is supported by these
1 citations.
This right is to he understood in
the sense in which it was stated by
| Chief Justice Marshall in the follow
ing passage of his judgment in the
case of the schooner Exchange (re-
ported in { Cranch's Reports, PIP. llG,
! 1860, decided by the supreme court
of the United States in the year 1912:
The jurisdiction of the nation.
within its own territory, is necessarily
, exclusive and absolute. 1t is suscepti-
/ Bile Of no limitation, not imposed by
itself. Amy restriction upon it, depriv-
ing validity from an external source
would imply diminution of its SOW
ereignty, to the extent of the restrlc-
ton, and an investment of that SOW
ereignty, to the same extent, in that
power, which could impose such re-
strictiOn. All exceptions, therefore, to
the full and complete power OF ma
ton, within its own territories. must
be traced up to the consent Of the ma
tlon itself They can flow from no
other legitimate source.
This consent may be either ex-
press or implied. In the latter case IL
is less Discriminate, exposed more to
the uncertainties OF construction, but,
If understood, not less obligatory. The
world being composed of distinct SOW
ereignties. possessing equal rights and
equal independence. whose mutual
benefit is promoted by intercourse
with each other, and by an inter-
change of those good offices which
humanity dictates and its wants re-
quire, all sovereignties have consent
ed to a relaxation, in practice, in cases
under certain peculiar circumstances,
of that absolute and complete juris- |
diction within their respective terri !
tories which sovereignty confcrs. This
consent may in some instances, be |
tested by common usage, and by com |
mon opinion growing out of that |
usage. A nation would justly be con-
sidered as violating its faith. although |
that faith might not be expressly |
which should suddenly and |
without previous notice, exercise its
territorial powers in manner not
consonant to the usages and received /
of the civilized world
The declaration of the right Of every
nation to have its jurisdictional rights
and protected by all other
nations is followed by this interpre-
lation.
This right is to be understood in
the sense In which Il was stated in the
following passage from the judgment
