USE COCOANUT OIL
FOR WASHING HAIR

II you want to keep your hair in
good condition, the less soap You use
the better.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
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 injure the hair.
Simply mosten your hair with
water and rub il In. One or two tea
spoonfuls 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 II leaves Il
fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy
TO manage.
You can get mulsifled cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. II IL very
cheap, and a few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family for

repulsed.
The same Inconsistency appears In
the reports of the fighting along the
User, although the Germans admit .
retirement and the French assert that
they have inflicted heavy losses on the
invader. From all accounts, however.
1t would appear that the Allies again
have melted the Germans to counter
attacks, both ON the User and in the
Arras region, and that to the north Of
Labassee the British are doing the at
tscking.
The Germans, in conjunction with
the Austrians, continue their big ef-
forts in the east. Heavy lighting Is
in progress along the River San in
Galicia, where the Russians are at
