HITCHCOCK IS
URGED TO Get

One More Big Organization
Wants to Know Why the
Senator Does Not Do
Something.

Another Omaha organization has
taken steps to try to wake up SEN
ator Hitchcock, who is believed to
be asleep at the switch in the mat
ter Of getting the water main extern
sion laid from Omaha to Fort
Crook. This is The Omaha Live
Stock exchange, which held a meet
ing and drafted a telegram which
was sent to the senator, asking why
work on this much-needed improve
ment hasn't been started, particular
ly as the appropriation was made
last June by the federal govern
ment and the work is urgently
needed in order that more men can
be quartered at Fort Crook.
Within the last few weeks SINH
lar kilograms have been sent to the
senator by the Associated Retail
ers, Omaha Manufacturers associa-
ton and the Real Estate exchange
When the senator was here early
in the summer he spoke airily of his
power to have the work done. "All
have to do is walk over to the
War department and tell EN- to
start" he said. He promised to
take this little walk soon as he ar
rived back in Washington.
Months have passed since then.
1t is presumed that the senator
overestimated his power said a
prominent business man. AT any
rate nothing has been done to eX-
tend the water main, though the
military officers are calling for it
md the money is ready to pay Tor it,
The senator doesn't even answer
the kilograms OF his constituents
any more, evidently, because he has
no adequate answer to give for fail
ing to get this improvement made
at once, so that Omaha's military
importance may be enhanced.p

Within ten minutes after an appli-
cation of Danderine you can not
find a single trace of dandruff or
falling hair and your scalp will not
itch, but what will please you most
will be after a few weeks use, when
you see new hair, fine and downy
at first-yes-but really new hair
growing all over the scalp.
A little Danderine Immediately
doubles the beauty of your hair. No
difference how dull, faded, brittle
and scraggy, just moisten cloth
with Danderine and carefully draw
it through your hair, taking one
small strand at a time. The effect
is Advantageous hair will be light,
fluffy and wavy, and have an ap-
pearance of abundance; an incom-
parable luster, softness and luxuri-
ance.
Get a small bottle Of Knowlton's
Danderine for a few cents at any
drug store or toilet counter, and
prove that your hair is as pretty
and soft as any-that it has been
neglected or injured by careless
treatment-that's all-you surely
can have beautiful hair and lots of
it if you will just try a little Dan
derine.-Adv,
