Speedway Liniment is used by large
horse shippers all over the country. 1t
is known as an absolutely sure rem
edy for bowed tendons.

Hair Often Ruined
By Washing With Soap

Soap should be used very carefully,
if you want to keep your hair looking
its best. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much aIkali.
This dries the scalp, akes the hair
brittle, and ruins it.
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 any
thing 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 it 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
her of the family fo- months.-Adv.

BAR TO COMMUNION

MILWAUKEE, Wis, June 2.-Warn-
ings that women and girls "indecently
attired" will be refused holy commun-
ion were received today by many Mil
waukee Catholics. The warning came
in the form of letter from Arch
bishop Sebastian Messmer to the Cath
Ole clergy of the diocese. 1t said in
part:
"Immodesty and indecency in the
manner of dress worn by women and
girls is most distressing and ill-bod-
ing feature of modern society. 1t be-
comes the strict duty of Catholic
clergy to warn the faithful against this
evil which is the cause of so much sin
and scandal"

CHICAGO, June 2.-Despite the I'M

and the golden opportunities to get

there will be no advance in prices

Prices for food in the grill and din

say, unless there is an unforeseen jump
in prices of food stuff.
Hotel men estimate the demand for
reservations to be so per cent greater

Duelinq.

1t is generally agreed that dueling
took its rise from the judicial combats
of the Celtic nations. The first formal
duel in England was that between VIII
liam Count Of Eu and Godfrey Bay
nard about the year 1895. Dueling
was at its height in France about
1900. though 1t was pretty popular as
late as 1923, in which year Francis
I. sent challenge to Charles V. In
England dueling was checked in the
army in 1892 and gradually disappear
ed from civil life with the coming of a
more enlightened public opinion. Duel
ing was never as popular In this coun-
try as 1t was In Europe, but never
theless many famous duels have been
fought here. The code may be said
to have received its death sentence
when Burr killed Hamilton. The de-
cline after that was steady until 1t
practically died out.-New York Amer

splendid fortune. A committee of

Not much Legislation Needed

The amount Of space the press is
called upon to give to politics is out Of
all proportion to benefits Who is
president, Congressman or coroner
makes not five cents difference to the
average publisher. But political cam
paigns do hurt business and political
propositions mean new laws and more
taxes.
Industries and business as a rule are
hindered more than helped by new and
untried legislative experiments. New
and higher ideals forced upon the
people before they are ready for them
are often expensive Injuries. 1t is to
be hoped that Congress and the State
Legislatures will not make it any harder
to live and get employment.

CURIOUS TAXES.
Ways Holland Had Of Raising Funds
In the Old Days.

Ways Holland Had of Raising Funds
In the Old Days.
The archives Of Holland contain or
dinances which may we'll be regarded
as curiosities OF taxation. In the year
1865 there WAS tax imposed on all
passengers travelling In Holland by
land or water. In 1901 this tax was
still In force.
In 1914 duty Of 21a pence was lev
led on each person who entered tav-
ern before noon. Those assembling In
a private house after 8 o'clock In the
afternoon for the purpose Of amusing
themselves had each to pay certain
sum, and those who entered d place OF
entertainment were likewise taxed.
There was duty on marriages and
deaths. The amount Of the tax varied
according to the social position of the
parties, while in the case of a person
buried outside of the district in which
he lived the amount payable by his ex-
ecutor. was doubled. s., f.
But the most curious tax of all was
one imposed in 1874 on boots and
shoes. In order, to prevent the impost
from being evaded each OF those arti-
cles SO essential to human comfort had
to be conspicuonsly marked on the up,
per leather with the stamp Of the
maker and also with that o. the taxing
officer The sum to be paid was regu-
lated by the; size Of the boot or shoe,
so apart from the question Of beauty in
those days 1t was a real advantage to
have a small foot, 1t saved expense

Large white sleeves beneath the
slashed sleeves of his jacket, a full,
short, bright cOlored skirt and close
fitting white trousers tucked into high
boots or leggings constitute the typical
attire of the Sandman. One Mould
think that a native thus bedight had
stepped from his place in a pageant
Of the middle ages instead of being
CARRIED In the customary costume for
feast days.
In some districts of the island the
men wear a pointed cap resembling a
Phrygian bonnet, long and narrow
like a stocking, reaching almost to the
waist. This point is either worn
down over the shoulder or folded on
top Of the head and may be used as a
pillow at night. 1t is apt to contain
anything from bread to snuff, which Is
Indispensable to the older Sard. A
queer custom of some Of the younger
men Is to let the hair on top Of their
heads grow often to fifteen inches In
length and then roll 1t up into pun,
which looks like pompadour across
the forehead.
Not only In their features, but In
their language do the natives Of Sar-
DINA retain traces Of the many races
which have occupied the island
through the centuries = Phoenicians,
Carthaginians, Romans, Saracens, Ital-
ians and Spaniards. Many dialects are
spoken, but Italian is now taught In
the schools. and the men acquire the
official language during their period of
compulsory military servlce.-National
