SOAP is BAD
FOR THE HAIR

Soap should be used very spar
ingly. II at all, II you want to keep
your hair looking its best. Most
soaps and prepared shampoos con-
tain too much alkan. 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
anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thor
oughly. Simply moisten the hair
with water and rub it In. It makes
an abundance of rich, creamy
lather, which rinses out easily, re-
moving 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.

INDIANAPOLIS. March 15.-Mayor
Dom M. Roberts of Terre Haute, fear

cross him In the last election. accord
ing to Charles Miller. liveryman, who
testified In the election fraud case.
Roberts said he wanted me to serve
on the election board because he
thought Shea was going to steal all the
votes there" he said.
Again he said: Roberts said he
was afraid they were going to double
cross him"
This is the first time the difference
between Roberts and Shea had crop
ped out in the trial. They are repre-
scented by different attorneys.
Another feature of Miiler's testi-
mony was the Interpretation he said
Judge Redmon and Mayor Roberts
placed on the election law. Although
he lived a mile away from the Sixth
ward, he said, Roberts told him he had
a right to serve on that registration
board. He said that Roberts told him
there should be 700 or 500 registered
from that precinct and he estimated
between 400 and 500 legal voters there.
Miller had worked for Roberts before:

BY mistahe it was announced in the

an edict against using the sidewalks
as skating Kinks. What the chief &C
tually did place a ban on was riding
bicycles on sidewalks.
When the small army of roller skat-

plain to the chief that a terrible out
rage had been committed and it took
him long time to square himself.
