USE COCOANUT OIL
FOR WASHING HAIR

II you want 10 keep your hair in
good condition. the less soap you
use the better.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos

Is very harmful. Just plain rpulsi-
fed cocoanut oil (Which is pure and
entirely greaseless). is much better
than soap or anything else you can

ket was very nervous and unsettled
again this morning. The opening was
at a decline Of II to Is points on old
crop months and of to points on
new crop positions. which was consid-
erably better than due on the cables.
and there was active buying of new
crop months by Wall street houses.

there was continued liquidation and

Wheat VALUES SHOW
HARDENING TENDENCY
Varied Prices at the Opening Are
Followed by Additional Gains

CHICAGO, May e.-Wheat values
showed . hardening tendency today az
a result of comparative flrmness In
quotations at Liverpool. British prices
were less affected by the fattering crop
outlook in the United States than had
been assumed would be the case.
The opening, which varied from the
same as last night to q higher, was
followed by additional gains and then
q reaction.
Corn Weakness Develops.
Corn developed weakness, owing to
selling pressure from local spectators.
Unsettled weather in Argentina was
virtually ignored. After opening on
to a shade advance the market made
slight upturn, but soon underwent
sag all around.
Favorable crop reports gave the bears
an advantage in oats. Buyers were
scarce.
Provisions averaged lower with hogs.
