During the fight which followed, Libero Wielded a tknife and Becker was saved from serious injury only by the heavy strap supporting his artificial leg. Judge James T. MeskiI imposed a fine of $1O and costs on both Carroll and Libcro this morning, and discharged Squilliaciote. Becker is in the New Britain General hospital where he was taken during the night after he had taken a weak spell in the cell at the police station, and upon his recovery, it is probable that he will be brought to court to answer charges ofCbreach of the peace in connection with the fight.
 Service is What They Want.
 Edward Peterson, one of the wit nesses, stated that he was in the cOb- bling shop with one shoe off having the other repaired when Carol and Becker walked in. The two young men demanded instant service as Becker had some nails in his shoe which were hurting his foot, he said. When the cobbler and Peterson ob- jected to delaying the work in pro- cess to enable the two young men to continue on their way, they became abusive, and one of them removed his coat to beat the cobbler, Peterson said. friend of Squilliaciote, seeing the condition of affairs in the shop, entered. and taking small last threw it.

RED CROSS ASKS WORKERS TO HELP
 FINISH JOB'

Mrs. w. D. Jones has asked the members of the various Red Cross units in the city to aid in preparing garments for the refugees of Bel gium and France. "The St. Louis Red Cross headquarters has sent us ma terial for 200 garments" she said yesterday, land they insist that we have them made by the end of the month. So far we have been unable to get enough local members interest ed in the work to finish the job" and l want to make an appeal to them for aid
 "If enough women will volunteer to give little of their time we can soon have the garments completed, but at the present we are badly in need of workers"
 The Pine Bluff chapter has done splendid work during the past months and has furnished material both for war work and aiding the destitute re- fugees of war torn countries. It is very probable that this will be the last large amount allotted and there fore St. Louis officials have urged that the. garments be completed this nc nth so that aid can be given suff- erers in Belgium and France.

 She Says Cardui
 Relieved.

Trap Hill, N. C.-Mrs. Eudora Hol- brook, recently made this statement: "I was very weakly for three or four years with womanly troubles. I was much worse at special times. Every month I would have to lie in bed for three or four days.

 I saw, with the first bottle, that I was being benefited, but l kept right on for five bottles regularly. By this time was so could do all my own work, which for some time I had not been able to do.
 That is the only time that I ever took it regularly, but I always have it on hand to use when I do not feel we'll and it always helps me-"

Don't Let Soap Spoil Your Hair

When you wash your hair, be careful what you use. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, which is very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle.
 The'best thing to use is just plain null sihed cocoanut oil, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats the most expensive soaps or any, thing else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store, and few ounces will last the whole family for months. :,
 Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in, abont teaspoonful is all that is required. It makes an abupdance of rich, creamy father, cleanses thor oughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust, dirt and dandruff.
