the last session of the 61st Congress
the Republicans passed through both
Houses u new bill for tariff board to
report 10 Congress. There were some
slight differences OF detail In the two
Houses which were agreed upon In

tariff board was dend--slain by the
Democratic party. II has now been

Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo

If you want to keep your hair in good
condition, be careful what you wash it
with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali This dries the
scalp makes the hair brittle and is very
harmful. Just plain mulsifed cocoanut
oil (Which is pure and entirely grease
less) is much better than the most ex-
pensive soap or anything else you can
use for shampooing, as this can't pos
sibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls
will make an abundance of rich, creamy
iather, and cleanses the hair and scalp
thoroughly. The, lather rinses out cas-
lily 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 mu1sifed 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.

of the Junior student class as well as

two separate hikes, but as some OF

and the club, it is thought best to run
both together and each boy is invited
to bring his camera and enter the con-
test to see who can get the best pic

Boys are requested to bring enough
for lunch, but not too much. 1t is
planned to get back to the association
about 100 o'clock, and swim will be
enjoyed at that time. There will be no
class work Saturday morning, but each
member Of the class is expected to

should be taken on hikes not to eat
one class of food only, such as "wein-
ers" and nothing else, but the parents
should see to it that the boys have a

have a small skillet or frying pan,

can eat them. Each boy should also
have a small knapsack to carry his
cooking utensils and goods in, as
there will be lot of hiking this sum-

FACTS ABOUT YOUR HAIR

There are about $4,000 hairs in your
head.
Each one is an independent oil plant
and like any other plant must have con-
slant care.
If neglected, it gets sick and dies.
Dandruff is the greatest enemy of the
hair
It seals up the hair-cells, smothers out
the roots and causes the hair to fall.
The head should be, kept free from
dandruf.
The hair.cells should be kept open
and healthy. =.
Not by washing with toilet soaps nor
alkali shampoos that will attack the
natural oil Of the hair and destroy the
fatty roots. :.
An oil shampoo with no free alkali
should be used.
EVERY WEEK ANTI.SEPTIC OIL
SHAMPOO contains no free alkali.
1t opens the hair-cells, leaves the
scalp soft, anti-septic and free from
dandrufP, It is the only shampoo con-
tanning mineral oil which is real benefit
to the hair plant.
Its rich creamy lather thoroughly
eleanses the hair and leaves it soft, lus-
trous and healthy.
To insure vigorous, healthy scalp,
men and children should have a sham
poo every week, women every other
, week.
