To be possessed Of a head Of
heavy, beautiful hair; soft, lustrous,
fluffy, wavy and free from dandruff
is merely matter of using little
Danderine.
1t is easy and inexpensive to have
nice, soft hair and lots of it. Just
get a small bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine now-it costs but few
cents-all drug stores recommend
it-apply a little as directed and
within ten minutes there will be an
appearance of abundance, freshness,
fluffiness and an incompatible
gloss and lustre, and try as you will
you can not find trace of dan
druff or falling hair; but your real
surprise will be after about two
weeks use, when you will see new
hair-fine and downy at first-yes
but really new hair-sprouting
out all over your scalp-Danderine
is, we believe, the only sure hair
grower, destroyer of dandruff and
cure for itchy scalp, and it never
fails to stop falling hair at once.
If you want to prove how pretty
and soft your hair really is, moisten
a cloth with a little Danderine and
carefully draw it through your hair
taking one small strand at time.
Your hair will be soft, glossy and
beautiful in just a few moments
a delightful surprise awaits every
one whb tries this.-Adv.

FOOT BALL star
MAKES CAPTURE
Of A BURGLAR
C. H. Coye, Awakened in the
Night, Leaps on Thief and
Holds Him Until the
Police Arrive.

c. Horton Coye, salesman for the
Carpenter Paper Co., Omaha, and
once famous as a football star, put
the old grid" tactics into operation
at 2:3O o'clock yesterday morning
when he tackled burglar who had
invaded his home. OIL Franklin av-
enue, Council Bluffs.
He downed the burglar, threw him
into the bath room and held him
there until police came. The burg
lar had cut the telephone wires be-
fore entering the house and the
police call had to be sent from the
neighboring house.
The burglar got into the house
through kitchen window and,
after looting the rooms down stairs,
went to the second floor. where he
accidently aroused Coye from sleep.
Coye made a flying tackle and
floored the man. Then he got a
strangle-hold and beat him UP a
bit.
The racket awakened Mrs. Coyc
who telephoned the police. 1t was
then discovered that the wires were
cut Mrs. Mack Goodwin, next door
neighbor, called the station and
Officers Crum and Sloan responded.
When they arrived Coye had thrown
the man in the bath room and
locked the door.
The police found a husky Italian,
20 years old, who said his name is
Emilio Brasso and that his home is
San Francisco. The officers had to
patch him up little to prepare him
for his appearance in police court.
He was held to the district court
grand jury under $1,000 bonds,
charged with burglary. The investi-
CATION also disclosed him to be a
draft evader, and he may be turned
over to the military authorities.

mentS.

structure but on account OF the gov
eminent restrictions in regard to
the erection Of new buildings the
plans had to be dropped.

ever, was insistent, and the ware
house at Ninth and Leavenworth
streets being available, the property
was purchased under the direction

Jurymen In Trial OF Nor
ga City Housebreaker
Could Not Agree
On Verdict
Two Men Were Arrested For
Deed But One Was Iderti-
fed AS A Soldier And Re-
leased To Military

At the regular session of court held
yesterday in Franklin, the case of George
C. Barret, charged with breaking into the
home of Mrs. B. Smyly of this city, was
tried After deliberating most of the
night the jury reported they were unable
to arrive at a verdict and they were dis
charged by the court. The prisoner will
be held at the parish jail until the next
term of court unless he can furnish bail.
This is very unlikely, as ne friends or
even relatives have thus far made them
selves known.
Barret and another man named Will
liam Marshall were arrested in Morgan
City last spring by Officers Guidry and
Boulder shortly after report had been
made to headquarters that the Smyly
home had been entered and an attempt
had been made to rob valuables in rooms
occupied by Mr.. and Mrs. L. F. Morri-
son and Mr.. n. Booksh. After the arrest
the men confessed to the charge and
stated they also attempted to forcibly
enter the homeof j. Goldman, but were
prevented by the sudden appearance of
Mr.. Goldman on the scene armed with a
revolver.
The loss from the rooms of the Smvly
home was very slight. Fortunately Meth
of the men had money of any amount
in their clothes and the robbers were
seemingly too nervous 70 spend much
time on an extensive search. A small
amount of change and a suit of clothes
were taken from Mr.. Booksh, which rep
resented the fruits of their night IS labor.
Mrs. Morrison s presence of mind saved
for her several valuable rings. They
were hid in the bed after she became
aware of the men s presence in the room.
When the men were arrested both were
dressed in uniforms Of the United
States army. Lieutenant Woody of the

SUGAR UNDER
NEW SYSTEM TODAY

Today, October l, the people of Nor
: gan City and vicinity, are buying
their supply of sugar on the new card
system Boiled down to few words:
If YOU have no card, you get no Sl.2ar.
But .iudging from the constant stream
of applicants a. rhe office of the lo,a4
food administrator in The Review, few
will miss getting their portion Of the
sweet stuff for that reason.
# truthful statements lave been gwen
deputies concerning rt+ membership at
families, the records obtained FROM sugar
applications will supply reliable figures
for a census. When it is believed that
all the applications are in The Review
will publish the figures and you can
judge for yourself
While it will be possible to secure
cards any time during the month, it
must be understood by those who have
failed to obtain cards that no dealers
will be permitted to sell them sugar until
card is secured. This ruling also ap-
plies to all dealers, wholesale and retail
Every consumer, as far as purchases is
concerned, is affected by the new sys-
tenn.
Parents who are unable to apply for
cards may send their children, but they
must have written order from such pa
rent stating the number in family.
The question has been asked as to the
proper mode of procedure in cases where
orders are given to grocers over the tele-
phone. The administrator states in such
cases the coupon or coupons must be
given to the delivery men. Care being
taken that the coupons detached are
equivalent to the amount obtained-two
pounds for each coupon.
The Morgan City daily review. (Morgan City, La.) 1916-1920, 1918-10-01

For this reason the food administrator
says all sugar coupons must be honored
by any and all dealers to whom they are
presented. The only exceptions will ap-
ply to those dealers who have exhausted
their sugar stocks.
Mr.. King states that dealers are not
required to sell family s entire month s
allotment at one time. This is an option
which the dealer may exercise as he de-
sires. Mr.. King emphasized, however,
that dealers must redeem at least one
coupon on every card presented as long
as he has supply on hand.
Mr.. King stated it was very important
that dealers notify him promptly when
their supply of sugar became. exhausted.
