Be Careful What
You Wash Your
Child's Hair With

If you want to keep your child's
hair in good condition. be careful
what you wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkali. This
dries the scalp, makes the hair brit
tie, and is very harmful. Mulsified
cocoanut oil shampoo (which is
pure and entirely greaselss), is
much better than anything else you
can use for shampooing, as this
can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply put two or three teaspoon
fuls Of Mulsified in a cup or glass
with little warm water, then mois-
ten the hair with water and rub it
in. 1t will make an abundance Of
rich, creamy lather, and cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. The
lather rinses out easily, and re-
moves every particle Of dust, dirt,
dandruff and excess 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 shampoo at any drug store. 1t
is very cheap, and few ounces is
enough to last everyone in the fam
lily for months. Be sure your drug
gist gives you Observation-Disclosures

Tho Milk Ordnance Anendnent
Rock Island, Aug. 1s.-Editor
Argus: There appears to be .
movement on foot to ask our city
commissioners to amend the pres
ent Rock Island milk ordinance.
Since the recent milk strike oc1
casioned by the large milk dealers
attempting to force the producers
to sell their milk for less than the
cost of production there have been
SO many conflicting conferences
and discussions that the writer,
like many other citizens, feels that
this move will be viewed with
more or less suspicion by the COM
missiooers. With one exception
the present ordinance fs sufficient
to insure to our people pure milk,
provided its provisions are en-
forced. Our ordinance should pro-
vide that all milk delivered to our
citizens come from tubercular test
ed cows. When this amendment is
made to our present ordinance it
;, Will be complete and all milk deal
ers in the city will welcome the
amendment.
II clean. raw milk, as nature
provides it for us, Is such a danger
Gus food product why do we find
SO many rosy checked farmer chill
dren, and why don't we hear of
epldemlcs among the rural fami-
lies. Farmers and their children
are not dying OF in large numbers
because they are not drinking
boiled milk. Your attention is call
ed to the tests as published in The
Argus, March 4 last, and other tests
published more recently, all show
ing raw milk to be much the
cleaner and showing a far less BAG
terra count. Many Of our leading
physicians recommend raw milk
for the use Of their patients and
especially for growing children
who are known to be troubled with
constipation.
y The public should be told that
the real reason why some of oul
large dealers are pasteurizing mill
is because Of the varied condition
of the supply they collect along the
country roads. They are com.
PEELED to boil the milk in order
to neutralize the product to keel
it sweet long enough to get it int
the hands Of their customers.
The city commissioners would
make a grievous error in passin,
an ordinance that would shut of
the raw milk supply. 1t woulc
cause howl from the people tina
would be heard from the city lin.i..
to the city hall.

The Ralston Boom,

Promptly appears a Ralston boom
for President. The lIoosier senator
elects success is SO signal and his
personality so pleasing his friends
think he deserves to go higher.
He defeated the most brilliant man
in the state after a canvass which had
shown his opponent off to excellent
advantage Mr.. Be~eridge in the cam,
paiSn had been quite up to his own
high mark. He had spoken admirably
and often. and in every part Of the
state, and yet on election day the
democratic candidate was successful.
Mr.. Ralston has served a term as
Governor of Indiana. and in the Of.
flee acquitted himself we'll. His ad.
dress is described as cordial and un.
affected, and as giving him a strong
grip on the everyday man. He 10 un.
doubtedly a vote-eetter.
Indiana is no stranger to specula-
ton about the presidency. She was
for long in the calculations when pres.
identaal booms were booming. Hoosier
boonns were as resonant as others. On
the republican side. Morton, Harrison,
Gresham, Porter. Fairbanks. each had
a boem. and Harrison's boom scored.
on the democratic side. Hendricks.
Mcdonald. English, Turpie. each had
d presidential boom; and Hendricks
and English achieved vice presidential
nominations. while much later Mar.
shall, himself doomed for the presi.
dency, attained the vice presidency.
It Is no new thing, therefore, for Z
HooEer boom to be booming. or for
managing politicians to be engaged in
appraising the value Of Indiana in Q
presidential equation. For years she

The Prohibition Question.

The President is quoted as predict.
ing that the prohibition question will
not be taken out Of politics within this
generation.
It 10 safe prediction. The enemies
OF prohibition are well organized. and
active and resourceful under trained
leadership. Last weeks elections
greatly heartened them, and their
drive for results In the Sixty-eighth
Congress- and later in the presidential
campaign Of 1894 will show them at
their strongest.
Their strategy is worth attention.
They present themselves as the real
friends of temperance. They join in
the most, vigorous denunciation of the
saloon. which they assert cannot and
should not return. They join with
equal fervor In the denunciation Of
John BArleycorn.
As they state their case, all they
have in mind is the restoration for
sale OF light wines and beer. the for.
mer for purposes of harmless refresh.
ment, the latter for the purpose of af
fording the lahoring man something to
help him maintain his strength and
keep his spirits up. AS they insist,
he needs it in his business. Without
1t. he. is discontented and an unstable
worker. With it, he is Industrious,
and on the Job every day.
The friends of prohibition-the men
and women who believe in the eight
eenth amendment and want it en-
fotced--tAke thelr cue from this: Rec
ognizing the shrewdness Of the ap-
peal. they are working the harder to
show THAT light wines and beer. the
saloon and John Barleycorn are all
linked together. and that the gain Of
one will ultimately be the gain of the
other. l-.
The drink traffic when unrestrained
is source of enormous. money re-
turns, and those who once. enjoyed
them are eager to enjoy them again.
A great and protracted fight is
ahead, with both sides in dead earnest.

British Conservatives Leading.

British election returns are slow in
coming. With sixty per cent Of the
constituencies reported. hewever, the
Bonar Law conservatives have a COM
manding lead. with the laboritcs sec
ond and the two groups Of liberals far
in the rear. The score at o'clock,
London time. was as follows: Con.
servatives, 22c:: laborites, IS; Asquith
liberals, so; national liberals George
ites), &c. and scattering. Q, d total Of
S65 out Of the full membership OF 6l5
in commons.
Thus as the record now stands the
conservatives have elected seventy
nine more members than all the other
parties together. II this should con-
tinue gonar Law will have d clear MA.
jority in support of his ministry.
Early returns Indicated a large Ia.
borite success. But these promptly
reporting constituencies were chiefly
in the large centers. from which the
results are always quickly known. Il.
is noteworthy that In the successive
returns from the farther and more
isolated districts the conservative
gains were more marked. while the
slaborites. after the first rush Of vic
tories. remained practically stationary.
If this tendency continues the con-
servatives will hold their now indi-
Gated clear majority.
The distancing Of both the wings OF
the liberal party by the laborites in
the balloting - thus far reported 10
q Significant indication. It would ap-
pear that the liberals have lost sup.
pofters In both directions. to the con.
servatives as well as the labor side.
The warning Of Austen Chamberlain
has plainly had an effect.
Unless q remarkable change occurs
in the later returns. Lloyd George will
occupy an uncomfortable position in
the commons. with q very smell and
actually negligible following. The size
Of his party" however, will not nee.
essarily operate to lessen his activi-
ties. He will probably be persistent
proponent OF questions calculated to
cause embarrassment to the ministry.

Gently printed description Of the be-
furblshed session room, no less than
nineteen kinds Of chairs. They have
all been painted and they are clean
and they look comfortable enough. but
when analyxed they look as though ell

into the FRANKLIN building to provide
"tor coneseny.''.

their own supplies rather than wait

AT the next session OF; Cpngress,

these nineteen styles Of chairs in the

tion will be mentioned, a. an argu.
rnent for q decent equipment for the

auacy can be made very impressive,
with . multitude Of details. There
should be no question of what is good
enough" for the schools; good enough
barely to let the work continue, just
as these nineteen chairs are good
enough for the boardroom for the
hare purposes Of seating the a..
sernnlage. The schools Of Washington
