that office, but the list does not seem
to contain just the sort Of man that

teachers of Oklahona the fees that
have been paid at registering agen-

great success both in securing regis
tratlon of teachers and OF schools
that want teachers, and this first

COCOANUT OIL. MAKES
A SPLENDID SHAMPOO

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, the less soap you use
the better.
Most soaps and prepared sfampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful. Just plain mulsified
cocoanut oil (Which is pure and en-
tirely greaseless), is much better than
soap or anything else you can use for
shampooing, as this can't possibly in
jure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two
teaspoonfuls will make an abundance
of rich, creamy lather, and cleanses
the hair and scalp thoroughly. The
lather rinses out easily, and removes
every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and it leaves it
fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get mulsided cocoanut oil
at most any drug store 1t is very
cheap, and a few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family for
months.

WHAT CAUSES COLDS ?

This question and GLOW to Prevent
Colds" is asked a thousand times
every day. A cold is really a fever,
not always caused by the weather but
due to a disordered condition of the
blood or lack of important food
elements. In changing seasons fat
foods are essential because they dis
tribute heat by enriching the blood
and so render the body better able
to withstand the varying elements.
This is the underlying reason why
the medicinal fats in SCOTS Emulsion
quickly overcome colds and build
strength to prevent more serious sick
ness. 1t contains natures medicinal
fats, so skillfully prepared that the
blood profits from every drop, and it is
free from harmful drugs or alcohol.
