practicable, thrown overboard. Sofas,

WHAT CAUSES COLDS?
This question and "How to Prevent:
Colds" i 9 asked a thousand times :
every day. A cold is really a fever, j
not always caused by the weather but
due to a disordered condition of the
blood or lack of important food- j
elements. In changing seasons fat
foods are essential because they dis
tribute heat by enriching the blood
and so render the body better able
to withstand the varying elements.
This is ths underlying reason why
the medicinal fats in Scott's Emulsion :
quickly overcome colds and build !
strength to prevent more serious sick
ness. It contains nature's medicinal
fats, so skillfully prepared that the ! ■
blood profits from every drop, and It la
free from harmful drugs or alcohol.

BODY OF SOLDIER'S WIDOW
TAKEN FROM RUINS OF HOME
Kings Lynn, Via Loudon, Jan. 20.
9.45 A. M.»— The body of a woman, the
widow of a soldier recently killed at
the front, was recovered from her de
t molished home to-day. This makes the
, second death recorded here as a result
of the aerial raid made by Germans on
English cities last night.
A resident of Kings Lynn told the
following story of the raid late last
night:
"I had heard this evening that a
Zeppelin had visited Yarmouth and sub
sequently passed - over Sheringham,
traveling westward. In the expectation
of sighting the formidable visitor, 1
kept a sharp outlook in the direction in
dicated. About 10.30 o'clock I heard
an explosion, whicll 1 afterwards found
had been caused by a bomb dropped
in Dershingham village, eight miles
from Lynn, and forming part of the
King's west Norfolk estate.
Queen's Favorite Resort Attacked
"Subsequently I learned that a Zep
pelin also had dropped bombs over the
neighboring village of Snettiham, ten
miles northeast of Kings Lynn, a fa
vorite resort of Queen Alexandra dur
ing her summer visits to Sandringham.
and that another had fallen on Grims
ton, a village on the to Lynn. At
Grimstoii the missile fell near the am
munition store belonging to the troop
camped in that district, but no damage
was done by it.
"Not long after hearing these explo
sions I could distinguish the noise of
an airship's propellers and a little later
could see plainly a Zeppelin outlined
against the sky, approaching irom the
east.
"The airship circled over the town
and dropped four bombs, with the re
sults already reported. There were two
or three miraculous escapes of people
who were buried in the debris caused
by fhe explosions, who afterwards were
safely extricated. The explosions
seemed to create more curiosity than
alarm. When the ai r craft appeared
the chief constable of Norfolk gave in
struction that all lights be extinguished
and tJhat certain military dispositions
be taken."
Town in Complete Darkness
The police had already received
warning from Yarmouth earlier iu the
evening and had ail lights switched off
and other precautions taken so that
when at about 11 o'clock the hostile
aircraft appeared Lie town was in com
plete darkness.
Latest reports say that seven bomb 1 !
were dropped, one of which demolished
a house in Albert street and made a big
hole in the ground ten feet across and
four feet deep. Tn some streets every
window was smashed by the force of
the concussions. The fire brigade was
summoned to a small tire in Cresswell
street, which was # soon extinguished.
A 17-year-old boy "is the only victim
known to be filled.
SKILL OF GEKMAN AIRMEN IN
HURLING BOMBS IN DARKNESS
Kings Lynn, England, ,lan. 20, Via
Ijondon, 11.29 A. M.—The streets of
Kings Lynn are this morning virtually
paved with glass and souvenir hunters
have been picking tip pieces of bombs.
An outstanding feature of the raid
appears to have been the skill with
which the German airmen, in the dark
ness, followed their route and dropped
bombs in the vicinity of King George's
house at Sandringham and Queen Moth
er Alexandra's bungalow at Snettisliam,
as well as at the d'ocks, water works!
and railroad station here and at the'
Grimston ammunition depot.
Railroad Sheds Wrecked
According to the police the raiders '
circled twice over Kings Lynn and
dropped bombs in the neighborhood of
the' railroad station and the docks.!
Three missiles fell close to the station
and wrecked the sheds where the royal
railroad coaches were housed'. One or
more bombs were dropped along the
water front among the docks, and dam
age was inflicted on the hydraulic en
gine house.
The dense darkness and 1 the slight
mist which prevented effective pursuit
of or successful shooting at the raiders
also hindered them in their efforts to
reach some of their apparent objectives,!
and also to aim their bombs with the
maximum of accuracy. Thus the visit
to Sandringham, which King George
and Queen Mary left at 10 o'clock yes
terday morning was not effective, al
though some bombs w ert dropped in the
vicinity of the royal residence.
Four Killed by Bombs
The casualty list at Kings Lynn, so
far as is known this morning, is t-v#
persons killed and four injured. They
all were in a group of houses on Ben
tinek street which was wrecked by one
bomb. The police are still searching
the ruins.
The casualties at Yarmouth are two
killed and one injured. There is still
a difference of opinion here as to
whether the German raiders came in
Zeppelins or in aeroplanes.
KING AND QUEEN ONLY VACATED j
SANDRINGHAM YESTERDAY
London, Jan. 20, 2.25 A. M.—Ger
man air eraft made long threatened
raids on England last night and at
tempted to blow up with bombs the
King's royal residence in Bandringham.
county Norfolk. King George and
Queen Mary, who had been staying at
Sandringham, with their family, only
yesterday returned to London to resume
their residence in Buckingham palace.
It is not definitely known whether
the raiders were Zeppelins or aero
planes, buf Zeppelins were reported yes
terday afrernooi. as passing over the
North sea in a westerly direction and
there is an inclination to believe these
were the raiders.
The night was quite calm, but very
dark cloudy, which made it impos
sible for the people in towns over
which they passed tc distinguish evon
the outlines of the raiders, though the
whirr of their propellers and the dron
ing of their motors eftuld be heard dis
tinctly.
A Zeppelin is reported to have been
brought down by the fire of a warship
at Hunstanton, a few miles north of
Sandringham.
Where the Bombs Dropped
Bombs were dropped in Yarmouth,
Kings Lynn, Sandringham, Cromer.
Sheringham and Beeston and every
where, except at Beeston, casualties and
damage to property resulted.
The first place visited was the wide
ly-known seaside resort and fishing
town of Yarmouth. Two persons, a
man and a woman, were killed, a num
ber of otlher persons were injured and
much damage to property was done by
the raiders in their visit, which lasted
less than ten minutes. Four or five
bombs were dropped in Yarmouth.
When the attack ibegan the authori
ties gave instructions that all lights in
the town be extinguished and other pre
cautionary measures were taken. Pew
signs of panic were seen during the
raid.
Apparently the raiders, after visiting
Yarmouth, flew over Cromer, where they
dropped bombs, and then went to Sher
ingham and Beeston. Going inland
from there, they 'made for Sandring
ham, dropping explosive missiles there
and attacking Kings Lynn, where a
boy was killed and a man, woman and
child were injured. Two houses wore
destroyed.
Royal Palace Not Harmed
The damage done in Sandringham
»has not been reported. It is known,
however, that the royal palace was not
harmed. At Sherinjfiiam a bomb pene
trated a house, but aid not explode.
Only yesterday Scotland Yard issued
instructions concerning measures to be
taken by the police and other officials
in event of an air raid. The police and
special constables were called upon in
the instructions to hold themselves in
readiness for a possible raid on London
and the fire brigades also were warned
to be in readiness.
The report of the attack on Norfolk
county caused considerable commotion
in London. Searchlights all about the
city were busily engaged throughout
the evening scouring the sky with their
rays to pick up any air craft that might
appear. Up to a late hour, however,
there was no sign of any aerial visitor.
Reports reaching London are to the
effect that a squadron of six Zeppelins
crossed over the North Soa and on
reaching the coast line, separated, some
of them taking a southerly direction
and others an opposite course. These
reports have not been confirmed, how
ever.
Airship 3,000 Feet in Air
"I believe there were two airships."
said a resident of Sheringham to the
correspondent of the "Daily Mail." "I
certainly saw one myself. It was flying
at a great height. I am unable to
judge the distance but should say it
was no less than 3,000 feet in the air.
It was a wonderful sight.
"The Zeppelin, like a great cigar,
lay dim and dark against the blackness
of the sky, but its outlines were unmis
takable. It was fitted with searchlights
which now and then wprc flashed be
low, casting weird rays of light on the
dark town and countryside.
'' Then came the crash of bombs.
There was a tremendous sensation in
the town but no panic, as the people
hurried into the streets. The damage
done was not great.
"In one street I inspected a hole
made by a bomb. It was two feet deep
and about 18 inches wide. I saw this
hole 45 minutes after the bomb fell
and it was still so hot you could not
bear to place your hand in it. The Zep
pelin 1 saw disappeared in the direction
of Cromer.
No Attempt to Visit London
All available news received up to an
early hour to-day from the scene of
the aerial attacks seems to confirm the
belief that the raiders were in airships
and that after their visits to the Nor
folk towns they turned toward sea
again, making no attempt to come fur
ther south or to visit London.
From Cromer it is reported that an
airship visit occurred about 5.30 last
night but at 10, one again appeared at
Runton, midway between Slieringham
and Cromer, and then turned seaward,
taking a northwesterly course.
A dispatch from Yarmouth to the
"Times" vouchsafes the opinion that
the raiders were in dirigibles for what
appeared to be searchlights were seen
| at a great altitude but, it adds, some
| people there believe they were not the
j beams of a searchlight but the flash of
' something resembling a flare.
To a large extent the people followed
official advice and took refuge in the
! basements of the houses.
Visits of Aircraft Timed
The approximate times of the visit
of hostile airships to the several towns
in Norfolk are as follows:
| Yarmouth, 8.20 p. m.; Cromer, 8.30;
Sheringham, 8.40; Hunstanton, 10 p.
| m.; Heachajii, 10.30; Dersingham,
10.40, and Kings Lynn, 11 o'clock.

SOAP IS BAD
FOR THE HAIR
Soap should be used very sparing
ly, if at all, if you want to keep
your hair looking its best. Most
soaps and prepared shampoos contain
too much alkali. This dries the scalp,
makes the hair brittle, and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
just ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil
(which is pure and greaseless), is
cheaper and better than soap or any
thing else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thorough
ly. Simply moisten the hair with
water and rub it in. It makes an
abundance of rich, creamy lather,
which rinses out easily, removing
every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and it leaves
the scalp soft, and the hair fine and
silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and
easy to manage."
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, and a few ounces
will supply every member of the
family for months.
