ner of the pier warehouse shortly

WAR TONE IN EASTER PARADE
Touch OF Seriousness to New YOrk's
Annual Fashion Review.

NEW YORK, April S. - Easter
passed quietly here today. The only
outward indications that the nation
was in conflict with foreign foe were
the sprinkling of olive-drab uniforms
among the gailygowned paraders
along Fifth avenue, ceaseless activity
at the recruiting stations, the steady
trampine of guards stationed at sta
tegical points and prayers offered at
all churches for divine guidance for
the nation in the present crisis.
Easter congregations at the churches
were larger than usual and there was
an added note of seriousness in the
services. Notwithstanding dark clouds
and chill winds. however, the fashion
parade on Fifth avenue assumed its
usual proportions.

GET NEW KIDNEYS!

The kidneys are the most overworked or
gans of the human body. and when they
fail in their work of filterins out and throw
ing off the poisons developed in the system,
things begin to happen.
One Of the first warnings is pain or stiff
ness in the lower part Of the back, highly
colored urine, loss of appetite, indigestion,
irritation or even stone in the bladder. These
symptoms indicate condition that may
lead to that dreaded and fatal malady,
Bright's disease. for which there is said to
be no cure.
You can almost certainly find immediate
relief in GOLD MEDAL Haarlem Oil Cap
sues. For more than 200 years this famous
preparation has been an unfailing remedy for
all kidney, bladder and urinary troubles.
Get il at any drug store. and if IT does not
give you almost immediate relief, your
money viii be refunded. Be sure you get the
GOLD MEDAL brand. None other ger ~ine.

Cocoanut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair In
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shan,poos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful. Just plain mulsified
cocoanut oil (which is pure and en-
tirely greaseless), is much heiter
than the most expensive soap or any
thing else you can use for shampoo
ing, as this can't possibly injure the
hair.
Simply rnoisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two tea
spoonfuls viii make an abundance OF
rich, creamy lather, and clanses the
hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather
rinses out easily and removes every
particle Of dust, dirt, dandruff and
excessive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly, and it leaves it fine and
silky, bright, fluffy and easy to man
age.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. 1t is very
cheap, and q few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family for
nonths.-Advertisement.

trrem . staff cerrsspendentl


Lincoln, Sept s.-(Speciai)-It is
just one thing after another at the
Nebraska state fair. What was con-
sidered the limit yesterday has to step
intosthe discard today and what would
have passed for the best ever last
night is fer sout-classed by the doings
today.
The grounds were crowded yester-
day, but today they wer. more so.
The.big field west of the grounds used
for the boys camp, which was halt
filled with automobiles yesterday, was
crowded to the limit today and if
automobiles are an index to the NUNS
Der of people there will be a good
showing when the tickets are counted.
"Wednesday was the big day last year,
the attendance being 53,s72. Thurs
asy was nearly as large, the turnstiles
turning in an attendance OF S0,330.
Today Is Omaha Day.
Tomorrow is Omaha day and the
metropolitan city always shows up
we'll and it is expected that tomor-
row will be no exception.
The fisheries exhibit, as usual, at
tracts all the people who can possibly
crowd around the building. The big
fish this year are bigger than ever
and there are three or four of them.
Superintendent O'Brlen has fairly
eclipsed all his former efforts in pre-
pairing fine exhibit and his hustling
assistant, are. kept busy entertaining
the crowds. State Game. Warden
Koester has mighty fine display Of
ducks, geese, brant, Chinese phelsants
and other game fowl near the fisheries
building and these, too, attract much
attention
Dryer in Operation.
Secretary Danielson is very proud
of his community dryer, which he has
in full operation in the big agricui-
tural building. Peaches, apples, corn
and other cannable and .dryable eata-
bles are being dried under the new
plan and the. place attracts great
deal OF attention. II is no use to
try to describe the way il is done.
No visitor to the big hall should neg
lect his chance and miss seeing the
thing work. 1t is simple, yet eolves
the drying proposition nicely
The university building, as usual,
is busy place. There the people get
good idea of the things which are
done at the. university and the meth
DDS used to educate and instruct the
students along lines which will count
for real good.
H. c. L. on Hand.
The high cost OF living seems to
have struck many Of the eating places
and meals which have formerly been
bought for IS cents now command
40 cents. However, the people have
70 eat and there appears to be little
kick coming.
Art hall. honey hall and the other
places where special exhibits are
made appear 10 be drawing the usual
crowds andsthe rapturous 20. Mys"
from the ladies are just as much in
evidence.
But the stock. 1t Is said that If all
the swine alone were put on the mar
ket that can be seen at the fair this
year they would bring the round
sum OF nearly $i50,000. Then there
are the cattle, the sheep and .the
horses. Add tic value OF all of sthese
to the list and it is probable that it
would take "a million dollars to buy
the four-legged bunch.
