trottlng track equal to the one on which
Make Long ran at Gutenberg. Every
thing is in frst-class shape. Swimming

Most soaps and prepared sham

dries the scalp and makes the hair
brittle.
The best thing to use is just
plain, mulsified cocoanut oil, for
this is pure and entirely grease
less. It's very cheap. and beats
soaps or anything else all to
pieces. You can get this at any
drug store, and few ounces will
last the whole family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with
water and rub 1t in. about a tea
spoonful Is all that Is required.
