Be Careful in Using
Soap on Your Hair

Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali, which is very
injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes
the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain mul.
SIZED cocoanut oil, for it is pure and
entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and
beats the most expensive soaps or any,
thing else all to pieces. You can get
this at any drug store, and few ounces
will last the whole family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about teaspoonful is all
that is required. 1t makes an abundance
Of rich, creamy lather, cleanscs thor
oughly, and rinses out easily. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and is soft,
fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wayy, and
easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and
takes out every particle of dust, dirt and
dandTuff.

One of the interesting develop
ments in the case yesterday was the
finding Of a letter in Allegrini's
pocket in which reference was made
to fund collected for the widow of
Gaetano Bresci, who assassinated
King Humbert of Italy. Subsequent
developments have led the police to
believe that Crones and Allegrini
may have had knowledge of the plot
to assassinate the Italian monarch.
That an attempt to blow up the
State penitentiary at Joliet, H., was
one of the plans of the alleged plot
ters, the police said today, was indi-
Gated by one of the AIIegrini let
tiers.
Recently it became known that
dynamite sufficient to wreck many
buildings had been found secreted in
the penitentiary.

read:

OFFERED HIM $1,000
TO STAY WOODRUFF
FARMER TELLS OF PROPOSITION
IN JACKSONVILLE MUIR
DER TRIAL.

Madisonville, KY, Feb. ia
jury was finally impaneled here in
the case of the commonwealth against
James Robinson, under indictment
for the killing of Dermett Woodruff
and his clerk, Glover Hoard. at Ham,
by Station in February, 1915.
Although many important witness
es were absent, over one hundred
were present at the opening of court
today. Great interest is being mani
tested in the trial and the courthouse
was crowded all day.
The commonwealth had prepared a
blackboard chart, showing the posi-
tion of the bodies when found, also
the building, railroad track, etc. The
first witnesses were examined mainly
on the nature of the wounds and the
position of the bodies when first dis
covered.
Two of the commemorative star
witnesses were on the stand yester-
day, M. X. Gordon, a prominent at
torney Of this city,and Cliff knight,
a farmer. When Mr.. Gordon was
asked by the commonwealth to tell of
the conversation he had with Rob-
inson in regard to Woodruff, one of
the murdered men. Attorney Breath
lit. for the defense objected on the
grounds that the conversation be-
tween Robinson and Gordon was that
between a client and attorney and
was confidential.
The court called all the lawyers of
the local bar into consultation with
the result that the objection was
overruled. Mr.. Gordon then stated
that Robinson had asked him what
the penalty would be If Woodruff
would drop out" Mr.. Gordon stated
that of course he could give no an
swer to a question of that sort.
Cliff Knight, when cross examin-
ed by Attorney Fox for the defense
became muddled in some of his an
swers in substance his testimony was
that If he (Knight) killed Woodruff.
he would receive $1,000 from Robin
son. Knight stated he told Robin
son he had nothing against Woodruff,
was also afraid of the consequences.
and two afiidavits were later produced
and read In court by the defense in
which Knight stated Robinson had
not made him such a proposition.
Knight cannot read or write and had
signed his mark. Court adjourned at
$3.50 o'clock with Knight still on the
stand. Mrs. Knight with two-year-
old child stayed in the court room
throughout the entire session, oc-
cupying seat near her husband.

The military administration of
Warsaw legalized the establishment
of Zionist organization and per-
mitted them to make propaganda
for the movement in the Polish
provinces. Permission was also
granted to the Jews to convene a
conference of Jews Of the Polish
provinces, with a view of discussing
the ways and means of improving
the economic and cultural conditions
of the Jews in Poland.
The Jewish workmen's organiza-
ton in Warsaw decided to demand
the exclusion of notorious anti
sen1ites from the Factories Commit
tee and the appointment Of factory
inspectors who are able to speak
Yiddish. In spite of the opposition
of the leading Jewish assimilators,
the struggle of the masses for the
recognition of Yiddish is meeting
with much success. In all court
houses, Yiddish is now recognized
as language and Yiddish inter-
prefers are now employed every

is allowed to be used as the vernac-
ular, when the parents of the chill

It has been stated so often that
the average Jew makes better in

Since he has so we'll accounted for

FROM OUR READERS.
Reasons for Biblical Laws.

70 the Editor:
Several items have appeared in
the columns Of your paper, inviting
criticism from your readers not only
to articles appearing therein, but
also to utterances made in inter-
views or in public places.
That such criticism did not come
forward as yet, is not due, | pre-
sumo, to any lack of arguments, but
rather to the lack Of time, that one
cannot spare, in order to make
thorough study and research that is
necessary to disprove the state
ments made
I find that | am, myself, in
parallel predicament. Too busy to
look after scientific articles in the
matter of eating pork or horseflesh,
I must satisfy myself by citing a
few sentences from an article in the
food department OF the "Evening
Tribune" dated Jan. 4 a. G. where
it appears that the pork is infested
with all kinds of diseases and germs,
that to eat it raw or half cooked is
dangerous to human life. The ar
ticle is based upon governmental
agricultural bulletin.
Following is a short extract from
the article quoted:
"This is the time of year when we
eat sausages and pork in it's vari-
Gus cuts. Large quantities of pork
products intended to be eaten raw
are also prepared commercially.
The disease known as trichinOsis
may result from this eating of raw
or half cooked pork. Trichinosis is
caused by certain worms called
trichinae Unlike many other in
fectious diseases, the severity Of an
attack of trichinosis depends upon
the number of parasites swallowed.
If severe illness follows the eating
of small amount of the meat, the
pork must have been heavily in
fested." The article speaks for it.
self, and no comment is necessary.
Horse meat has never been eaten
in such countries where beef, fowl,
or other meats were in abundance.

lack Of such meats, the people would
rather have it imported even from
other countries, than eat the horse
flesh that could readily be found in
their own markets. The reason is
obvious, for horse flesh is unpalat-
able and too coarse for the human
body During these weak genera
tons, when people are warned not
to eat too much meat of any kind
there is certainly no demand for
horse flesh.
That the biblical laws surpass the
state and national laws even of the
present century, as far as giving the
reason for their passage is con-
cerned, must be conceded. When
law is passed by legislative body
in this or in any other country, the
law when put in effect is arbitrary
and must be followed by every citi-
zen concerned. The citizen living
during the time the law was passed
may know the reason, but it cannot
be assured that future generations
will understand it as we'll. The
Bible has in numerous cases cited
reasons for the issuance of its ordi-
nances, and often is tacit where such
ordinances were we'll understood by
the people at that time. The reasons
given are in different forms, and
thus unable to cite them all for lack
Of space, | shall just enumerate a
few, to satisfy the curiosity of the
readers.

That the reasons are tacit in re-

abreast of the time at present, do
not have to search very deep to find
a reason for obeying these laws.
