Don't Let Soap
Spoil Your Hair

When YOU wash your hair, be careful
what YOU use. Most soaps and prepared
si1ampoos 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 null
sifed cocoanut oil, for this 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 a teaspoonful is all
that is required. 1t makes an abundance
of rich, creamy 1ather, cleanses thor
ouehly. and rinses out easily. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and is soft,
fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and
easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and
takes out every particle of dust dirt and
dandruff.

KEOKUK DAM AGAIN
CAUSING COMMENT
Protests Over Building Crest so High
Said to Have Been Sent

WASHINGTON, D. c.. April 10
WASHINGTON bureau of the Des Moines
Register: The Keol1uk dam question
mas once more been rails ed here. On
complaint Of residents Of that vicin-
ity. Senator Kenyon is taking it up
with the war department.
A letter has been sent the depart
ment by Senator Kenyon asking by
what authority the department has
allowed the crest of the dam to be
built to a height of 52'5 feet when
the law would limit it to $40 feet.
It is charged that the additional
six feet is working much damage to
the region above the dam. that much
land is subject to overflow and much
property injured.

The automobile fund Friday night
totaled 81, 157, Al, from which 10 per
cent is taken to defray the expenses
of the auto registration department
and the state highway commission.
This amounts to $115,741.

April 1, 1915, the total sum appor-
toned was $69S, 343. This was d.

With infinite patience seven opera
tors started at the seemingly impos-

over the lights. 1t was necessary for
the chief operator to help at the
switchboard. But as fast as they
answered calls, others came in, and
in goodly quantities. And practically
all OF them represented that curious
phenomena, the public asking central
where the fire is.
Now the whole thing was just a
little private deception on the public
and also on the operators. Although
| the fire bells were ringing, there was
no fire. The alarm was a false one.
The bells were rung that the COM
missoners might get inside informa-
ton of the way the general public
paralyzes the telephone facilities at
every fire, large or small. The phony
fire was supposed to be at Fourteenth
and High streets. The operators did
not know Of the little game that was
being played. i

the time the bells first were rung,

PenaItx Starts Saturday.

Saturday the state automobile de-
partment began to add 10 per cent
penalty to all registration fees to be
paid on all old cars. The new law
provides that the fees become de-
linquent on April 1. This may prove
an expensive April fool joke on the
auto owner who has neglected to
secure a new number plate. How
ever, the auto department will honor
all drafts and checks which were
placed in the mails before midnight
Saturday night.
The books show that $4,000 cars
have been registered for 1915 so far.
About 55,667 more autos were regis
tered by April 1 than were registered
up to the same date last year, the
report of w. S. Allen, secretary of
state, shows. This is considered a
remarkable record for the registra-
ton department. The department
now has 1860 more plates on hand
to supply the demand. The plates
have been arriving at the rate Of a
car load a week.

No cars

Mr.. Allen has received praise from
state officials familiar with the diff
ficulties of handling the auto regis
tration, for the way the 1916 registra-
ton has been handled. 1t is said
that no other state in the union can
equal the record made by the Iowa
department this year.
