Use Cocoanut Oh;
For Washing Hair

II you want to keep your hair in good
condition, be carefnl what You wash it
with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle. and is
very harmful. Just plain mulsified CO.
eoanut oil (Which Is pure and entirely
greaseless). is much better than the
most expensive soap or anything else
you can use for shampooing, as this
can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water
arklsfpb 1T In. One or two teaspoonfuls
,wnEmake an Abundance of rich. creamy
ilatfief, and cleanse the hair and scalp
thoroughly. The lather rinses out cas-
ily, and removes every particle of dust,
dirt; dandf,tE and excessive oil. The

Clears Complexion

Don't worry about blotches or other
skin troubles. You can have a clear
clean complexion by using Il little zemo,
obtained at any drug store for Csc, or
extra large bottle at $l.00.
Zemo easily removes all traces OF
pimples, black heads, blotches, eczema
and ringworm and makes the skin clear
and healthy. Zemo is a clean, penctrat'
ing, antiseptic liquid, neither sticky nor
greasy and stains nothing. 1t is easil,
applied and costs mere trihe for cacl
application. 1t is always dependable,

y x 4 N . V a.
day afternoon Judge E. B. Woodruff
modified the order Of the Montgomery
county grand jury that Lynn George
J. Kelly, accused OF the villsca ak muir
ders be removed to Des Moines for
safekeeping and ordered him confined
in the Harrisen county jail at Logan,
pending his hearing.
The date Of the trial has not been
set. and Judge woodruff Is not ready
to even name an approximate date.
A! L. Sutton, Omaha attorney, who
| is conducting the defense of Kelly. Gre
| ated sensation by declaring that who
| ever was responsible for the statement
published this morning, giving details
Of the evidence to be used against
Kelly, should be cited for contempt of
court. E
| He said that the statements made
were based upon evidence presented
before the grand jury, and that to di-
vulge grand jury testimony is clearly
contempt OF court.
Havnsr in Contempt!
Mr. Sutton, who is former dis
Etrict Judge In Nebraska and who was
la candidate for governor Of Nebraska
on the republican ticket last fall left
no doubt that It was Attorney General
H.; NJ. Havner he was cunning for"
in tho contempt references.
The defense demanded that il Kelly
was removed from Red Oak at all he
should be, sent: to Council Bluffs. In
timations were made that Kelly feared
being "railroaded" to an insane asylum
| il brought to>Des Moines.
/ Attorney General Havner argued for
the removal OF the prisoner to Dies
Moines for safekeeping, on grounds
that public sentiment in Montgomery
county was so aroused that it was not
advisable to keep Kelly at Red Oak.
He declared that his interest III the
case was simply that as an official
agent of law and order.
Wiikerson Has Big Stake.
Detective J. N. rWikerson is again
deeply interested in developments, and
the anti Jones' pro- Wilkerson factions
are once more aligned.
Wilkerson, his friends say made a
thorough investigation of Kelly's pos
sible connection with the crime and
found no evidence to Snow him guilty.
Should Kelly be found guilty, it is
possible that Wilkerson would face Sc
rious consequences as a result of his
activity in attempting to prove case
against r. F. Jones.

phic work and for posing. A girl In
Council Bluffs answered the ad, and the
answer from ,Kelly-the first letter
was in itself proof of the sexual per-
versity of the man. 1t contained every
kind of lewd sexual suggestions, not
all hidden. The girl took the letter to
her pastor, who In turn turned 1t over
to the postoffice authorities at Council
Bluffs. They had the girl write de-
coy letter. Kelly,s answer to this was
even more obscene If possible. The
girl kept writing under the direction
of the postal authorities.
"The postal authorities then ordered
Kelly arrested by the Sioux Falls au-
thorities. He told the man who came
after him that he knew what he wanted
he wanted him for thit illisca muir
der business He was told no, that he
was granted for sending obscene mat
ter thru the mails He denied emphat-
ically that he had done anything like
this, but when confronted with the let
ters admitted his guilt n ,E-H.i
.sWhile in the Jail at Sioux Falls he
made many indecent proposals to the
prisoners there, one Of them an Indian
He would have spells when he would
threaten his own life and that Of those
about him. Later, he was taken to the
federal hospital at Washington, ID. G,
At that place heNoften threatened the
lives Of the students. t-' ~
1T was while here that he was found
stealing pieces Of meat from the table
and secreting them in his room. But he
always denied any knowledge OF this I"
Here the attorney general recalled
the fact that piece of bacon was
found on the floor of the spare bed
room in the Joe Moore home the morn
ing after the murder, Mrs. Moore was
a noted good housekeeper and there is
no explanation for the, presence of
the meat there except that q sexual
pervert carried it there.
AlsoSit was recalled that the position
of the dress and smears of blood on
the body of one of the little sStillinger
girls showed the workings of the sex
ual pervert.
After some time spent at Washing
ton Kelly was taken back to Sioux
Falls to answer the charge Of sending
obscene matter thru the mails. 1t was
at this, time that he made his confess
sions. All the time he was talking of
the murder.
Meanwhile he entered plea OF guile
ty of the charge Of sending the obscene
matter. but because of his mental con-
dition he was allowed to withdraw 1T.
He was then taken to Sioux City. where
man was going to try to take care OF
him. Here he again got into trouble
trying to get girls to pose in the nude
for him After a while he was re-
leased again. He went back to Sioux
City and got into the same trouble
again. He was once more taken to
Sioux Falls. The next time he was re-
leased he went to Sutton, Neb.
Tells Another Story.
SHE told a man there that he was &C.
cused OF the iilisca murder because OF
a bloody shirt he had sent to a laundry
in CouncilNBluffs. He sent the shirt all
right, he. said, but the blood on it didn't
come from murder 1t was where
blood dripped from his face when he
cut his face shaving:
