in her hand, her face going from red
to white and back to red again.
"Why, Miss Maggie. what is it"

As she turned toward him he saw
that her eyes were full OF tears.
"Why, tits letter telling me-

The red surged once more over
Miss Maggie's face. She drew back
little, though manifestly with embar-
rassment, not displeaure.

she stammered. Its just a letter

she tossed it into her open desk. Very
plainly, whatever she had meant to
do in the first place she did not now
intend to disclose to Mr.. Smith the
contents of that letter.
Miss Maggie. please tell me--was
it bad news?"
Bad? Why. of course not" She
laughed gayly.
Mr.. Smith thought he detected a

She shook her head.

heard Miss Maggie cry out at any OF
the other ones.
That they affected her deeply,

her). and she was too proud to let
him or any one else know it.

Cocoanut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair

II you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkaE. 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 better
than the most expensive soap or any,
thing else you can use for shampoo
ing, as this can't possibly injure the
hair. .t-... ~.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two
teaspoonfuls will make an abundance
of rich, creamy lather, and clesnses
the hair and scalp thoroughly. The
lather rinses not 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 manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut
oil at most any drug store. II is very
cheap, and few ounces is enough
to last everyone in the family for
months-Adv. D.. :

Recommendation Also Made
That Foreign Language

The Chamber OF Commerce com
uiittee on AUGMENTATION has made
Recommendation that German
language newspapers in Nebraska
suspend publication during the war.
"We recommend this" says the re.
port, with full appreciation OF the ci-
forts made by the German press in
Nebraska to demonstrate its CONVEX
sion to loyal Amerieanism and,
though suspension may entail some
hardship we think i, is sacrifice they
should be willing to make. II is very
small compared with that which Ger
manism has forced upon the allied
countries as we'll as neutral nations
of the world"
The report also recommends that
she Foreign Language Press, In

gani1ation was formed some time ago
presumably to control advertising in
about Is foreign-lauguage newspapers

disloyai tendency" says the report,
"but in view Of the revelations made
recently as TO the use ,of German
money in see! 'ag to influence public
opinion in this country by purchasing
newspapers and advertising in papers
through business organizations, we
are convinced that this method OF Sc
curing advertising should be
abandoned and these papers should
seek their advertising through the
usual business agencies"
The committee does not favor any
effort to suppress or curtall the cir
eulation or business activities OF the
Bohemian, Danish. Swedish. Italian
or Polish papers OF the state, but
hopes they will ultimately publish in
English.
The committee also recommends

The emperor referred to the period
