revealed a number of foot prints in
the snow which had fallen during the

did so he quickly pulled his automatic
gun and fred, killing the fellow in
stantly, the bullet penetrating his
heart. The body was brought to the

DON'T WASH YOUR
HAIR WITH SOAP

When you wash your hair don't
use soap. Most soaps and prepared
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
mulsifled cocoanut oil. for this Is
pure and entirely greaseless. It's
very cheap, and beats soaps or any
thing else all to pieces. You can
get this at any drug store. and
few ounces Will last the whole fam
lily for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub IL in: about q teaspoonful
is all that is required. 1t makes an
abundance OF rich, creamy lather.

100000 TONS FIXED
ESPOSS|BLE PRODUCT
Experts Report Find Of Potash De-
posits Of Commercial Value
in California.

With the importations Of potash from
Germany practically shut on BY the
war, q promising and valuable source
OF commercial potash has been dis
covered in the United States. which
government experts estimate contains
1000. 900 tons Of water-soluble potash
deposits.
This is the salt-incrusted valley floor
commonly known as Searles lake. In
southeastern California 1t has lately
como into prominence through the
widespread interest in the search for
an available source Of potash in this
country and the apparently promising
prospects this locality affords Of q con-
siderable commercial production in the
near future
Previous Estimates Confirmed.
The estimate made three years ago
that this deposit contains 100000 tons
Of water-soluble potash salts seems to
have been amply confirmed by subse-
quent developments. That this amount
Of potash salts will actually be pro-
duced and placed on the market can
not yet be considered assured. but so
far ~ can be Judged from evidence
available 1t seems that this deposit IL
the most promising immediate source
OF commercial potash in the United
States.

main features of the lake history, and

His report is a preliminary review
based on trips made through this and

tfons looking toward the discovery Of

FALLING HAIR MEANS
DANDRUFF Is ACTIVE
SAVE YOUR HAIR! GET A Is
GENT BOTTLE OF DANDER-
LNE RIGHT NOW

Thin, brittle, eolorless and scraggy
hair il mute evidence Of a neglected
scalp; Of dandruf-that awful scurf.
There is nothing so destructive to
the hair as dandruff. 1t robs the hair
of it's lustre, it's strength and it's very
life; eventually producing a feverish-
ness and itching of the scalp, which
if not remedied causes the hair roots
to shrink, loosen and die-then the
hair falls out fast. A little danderine
tonight-now-any time-will surely
save yeur hair.
Get a z5-cent bottle Of Knowlton's
toilet counter, and after the first ap-
plication your hair will take on that
life, lustre and luxuriance which is so
beautiful. It will become wavy and
fluffy and have the appearance Of
abundance; an incompatible gloss and
softness, but what will please you
most will be after just a few weeks
use, when you will actually see a lot of
fine, downy hair-new hair-growing
all over the scalp.
