recollect there was much argument that
in view of the beautiful weather which
continued till the middle of November,
that the water should have been allowed
to run, not only for the convenience
of citizens who have stock but because
of the general use made of the spark

law, divorced person was prohibited
from marrying again for year, but in
numberless cases one or the other of the
parties married over in Utah or Wyo-

will not issue for six months, although
the divorce is granted. Consequently
neither party can marry again under

tPWORTH LEAGUE PLANS
SERIES Of DI0lE STORIES

The members of the cabinet of the
Epworth League at a meeting Tuesday
night decided to vary the usual order of
the Sunday night sessions of the League
and conduct for number of Sundays a
series of bible stories. The nature of
the work will be outlined at the meet
ing Sunday by Miss Olive Gray who will
have general charge of the work.
IL is the desire of so many of the
young people TO know more about the
interesting stories of the Bible, and as
there is no Y. NJ. c. A. or Y. W. c. A.
here to carry on the work, it is thought
that the League can meet real de-
mand for bible classes.
As the work is TO be outlined at the
meeting next Sunday, all of those who
desire to follow the series of lessons
should be present.
Too many people find themselves
embarrassed today because they know
so little about the Bible, and feel an in
sistent desire to know more about this
book which has been such vital force
through the ages. Many seem to think
that it is taken for granted that every
one knows the Bible, and are ashamed
to sdmit their own ignorance to the
supposed learned in Bible lore. But it
should he remembered that an honest
confession j. good for the soul and he

Don't Wash Your
Hair With Soap

When you wash your hair. don't use
soap. Most soaps and prepared sham
poos 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
siffied coeoanut oil, for this is sure and
entirely greascless. 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
for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water and
rub 1t in, about a teaspoonful 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. II loosens and takes out
every particle of dust, dirt and dandruff.
