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 mulsifled cocoanut oi!, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats the most expensive soaps or anything else all to pieces. Tou can get this at any drug store, and a few ounces will last the whole family for months. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in. about a teaspoonful is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly, 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 nd takes out every rarticle of dust, dirt and dandruffs Adv.

AUTO ENGINE Destructive Blaze at Wolf Lake Shows City Council Need of Motor Action Taken at Meeting. The deplorable lack of proper fire fighting equipment was demonstrated in Hammond yesterday with a loss of over $160,000 when tie Swift & Co. ice houses at Wolf Lake were destroyed. The time between the arrival of the speedy combination hose and ladder automobile truck at the scene and the horse-drawn engine which came seven minutes later gave t'.ie fire sufficient headway to get beyond control. The :Hamnioil city council was taught a lesson by the experience and last evening instructed the city attorney to draw up an ordinance authorizing a bond issue to pay for a combination fire engine and hose cart to completely motoriie the central fire station. The new equiipment will cost approximately $9,000. If it had been in use yesterday a costly conflagration would have been avoided. The territory from the lake to the Little Calumet river Is so vast that horse-drawn fire fighting apparatus Is more inadequate in Hammond than in moFt cities. Service Before I tllltlea. Adoption of the Boone resolution last evening caused the city attorney to be authorized to take the complaints against the street car service and the demands for extension to the lines to the state utilities commission for an investigation by that body with the hope that it will order the traction company to do the things the allied improvement associations have repeatedly urged. The resolution was introduced by Councilman Boone. The council last evening heard complaints of residents of Atchson avenue regarding the flooding of basements on that street by the backing up of water in the sewer. The board of works stated this question was being considered and a method worked out to remedy the trouble. The council passed the appropriation for the addition to the city hall for garage purposes and the building of a matron's quarters totaling $2,4S5.

Some time ago I felt so run down, had pains in my back and aide, was very irregular, tired, nervous, had such bad dreams, did not feel like eating and had short breath.
