SafebIOWerS' Fuse Wire
And Whisky Are Seized

A coil of fuse wire, such as is used
by safe blowers, and a two-gallon
whisky flask with some of the out
lawed liquid still in it were seized
yesterday in Dan J. Linahan's drug
store at 1l06 North Sixteenth street
Linahan was locked up on the
charge of unlawfully having intoxi-
eating liquors i'll his possession.
The fuse wire, he said, he knew
nothing about. Officers Russell,
Chapman, Anderson and Nielsen, who
made the raid, are inclined to believe
that the wire is the property Of Louis
Assman, the former proprietor of the
drug store, who is now serving a SELL
tcnce of from three to fifteen years
for the Winslow bank robbery Dec.

Warmer Weather Needed is
CRY of Nebraska Farmers

The Northwestern railroads Ne
braska crop report for the week end
ing Saturday, indicates that the great
need of the farmers at this time is
warmer weather and lots of it. Agents
along the lines of road report that
owing to the cold weather last week,
crops made slow growth and are un-
usually backward.
There is no improvement in the
condition of winter wheat and the es-
innate of IS per cent having been
winter killed, holds good. Spring
wheat is coming along nicely and
promises good crop yield, provid-
ing the weather is seasonable.
Preparing the ground for corn
planting is about completed. In many
portions of the state most of the
planting has been finished.
The acreage of corn and potatoes
will be the largest in the history of
the state.
Generally, alfalfa has been killed
by the cold of last winter.

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 alkali.
This dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use y
Just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil
(which is pure and greaseless), and is
better than the most expensive soap
or anything 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 mulsfied cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, it's very cheap, and
few ounces will supply every men,
