IPompeian HAIR Massage
|B eautifies the H air

To have hair that falls m soft
shimnering ripples, and a scalp
free from deadly Dandruf, use
Pompeian HAIR Massage.
Sprinkle little on the hair and
scalp, and rub dry with a Turkish
towel. You will hardly believe the
result. Your hair will appear twice
as thick, soft and beautiful, and,
best Of all, be admired by all your
friends.
If you should have Dandruff,
you will be stopping it while you
are identifying your hair. Pom
pcian HAIR Massage is a treat
ment, not merely a tonic. The
massaging (rubbing) of the scalp
wakes up the roots of the halt to
new life. This massaging also
opens the pores of the scalp to the
wonderfully stimulating liquids IN
Porupeian HAIR Massage. Dand-
ruff goes. Your hair will become
and stay healthy, vigorous and at
tracdve.
Pompeian HAIR Massage is a
clear amber liquid. Not oily; not
sticky; cannot discolor the hair.
Delightful and dainty to use. Get a
25c, Soc or 81 bottle TO-DAY at
the stores and give yourself the
luxury of treatment.
Made by the reliable makers Of
the famous Pompeian MASSAGE
Cream and Pompcian NIGHT
Cream.

AN APPEAL FROM PALESTINE.
Local Jews Receive Pitiful Plea for
Aid for the Starving Remnants of
Israel in the Holy Land

Kenosha Jews are in receipt of com
munications asking for aid for suffer
ing men, women and children, now liv-
ing in abject misery in the very shadow
Of the Holy City. The appeal comes
from the United Charity institutions of
Jerusalem, with headquarters in New
York City, and will doubtless meet
with a ready response from local
Judaism The message reads in part as
follows:
Horrifying and terrible are the re-
ports brought by the eighty-six refu-
gees who have just arrived from the
Holy Land. Affrighting are the condi-
tions of which this remnant of Jerusa-
lens Jewry, relates. Heart-rending
scenes daily pass in the war-stricken
city of Jerusalem,
Hundreds of famished women and
children are sitting in the public thor
oughfares, with outstretched arms, en-
treating the passers-by for something
to appease their fearful hunger. Hun
dreds Of babes lose their lives in the
arms of their mothers for lack of milk
or any other nutrient.
Bear not upon your conscience the
eternal shadow of the guilt of their
death, and extend to them a hand of
aid and relief. y

well known and popular among his
7choolmates and friends. The funeral
services, which were necessarily priv
ate, were held this afternoon from the
home after which interment was made

Saturday Afternoon.

late Frederick Joerndt, ST., and for
many years a resident of the city Of

the home of her daughter, Mrs. Ernest
Slavinsky, SOB Middle street, from the
Affections incident to advanced age.
The deceased was seventy four years
old and had lived in Kenosha for many
years, where she had made innumer-
able friends, to whom her death comes
as personal sorrow. She had been
in failing health for some time and al
though her death comes as q great sor-
row and shock to her relatives and
friends it was not entirely unexpected.
Mrs. Amilie Joerndt was the wife OF

fishermen Of the city of Kenosha. She
was born in Germany, September 81,
1843, a daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs. Will
liam Heckhaeffer, and when eight years
old came to America with her parents.
For four years they lived in buffalo,
New York, after which they moved to
Milwaukee. Here she resided until her
marriage when she came to Kenosha,
where Mr.. Joerndt was engaged in the
fishery business. She was devoted
member Of the German Lutheran c. urch
and prominent in the work Of the
women of the church. Thirteen years
ago her husband died and since that
time she has made her home with her
children.
She is survived by six chill
dren, all of Kenosha: F. f. Joerndt,
George Joerndt, Mg.sv Ida Slavinsky,
Miss Rose Joerndt and Mrs. Gust Smith.
She is also mourned by sixteen grand
children and innumerable friends.
