 SHOW INTEREST

WASHINGTON, Dec. 29-Five submarine boat building companies are studying plans of the two twenty-five knot fleet submarines designed by the navy department, which recently advertised for bids on construction.

Other bidders may follow the same course Or submit alter native bids for oil engine propul- sion machinery. Navy department officials are gratified by the inter set taken by builders, as it was feared the excessive speed requte- ments might keep them from bid ding.
 Four boats of the q" class, tho 1, 2, 8 and 1, it was said today, soon will be ready for another of ficial endurance trial engine trouble having prevented their acceptance by the government on previous tests.

 A Cleveland woman was walking down a street, wearing a pair Of those new fur-top shoes. A dog saw the fur and made an energetic attack, divesting one of the shoes of its trimming.
 All of which is interesting. For the dog may have thought that he recognized in that fur an old-time foe-the neighbours cat. But even if he did, women who wear fur trimmed shoes may feel sure that mice, woman's old enemy, will give them a wide berth.

DON'T USE SOAP
ON YOUR HAIR

When you wash your hair, don't
use soap. Most soaps and prepar-
ed 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 mulsified cocoanut oil, for this
Is pure and entirely greaseless.
It's very cheap, and beats soaps
or anything else all to pieces. You
can get this at any drug store, and
a few ounces will last the whole
family or months.
Simply moisten the hair with
water and rub it in. about a tea
spoonful is all that Is required. 1t
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,
1t loosens and takes out every
particle Of dust. dirt and dandruff.
