Use Cocoanut Oil For Washing Hair

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 father, and cleanses the hair and scalp thoroughly. The father 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, ausy aad easy to manage.
 You can get mulsifed coeoanut oil at most any drug store. It is very cheap. and few ounces is enough to last everyone in the family fer 1oAtAA

MICHIGAN GUARDS MAY VOTE BY MAIL

Lansing, Mich., Aug. 22.-Despite the ruling of Attorney General Eel lows that the Michigan soldiers now on duty along the Mexican border dc not come within the scope of t'4ose entitled to vote under the :'bsant voters act, an effort will be made, it is said, to extend the privileges of the ballot to Detroit soldiers in the state and municipal primary to be held one week from today.
 The ruling of the attorney-gentral is based on a special provision of the absent voters act which gives soldiers the right to vote only when they are serving outside the state in a "rar. instruction or rebellion" Thara being no war, insurrection or rebellion at present, the attornev-gen holds that they are not entitled to vote by mail and will not be entitled to do so unless a war, insurrection CT rebel lion should begin before primary day.
 Sheriff Oakman of Detroit has taken :Ssue with the attorney-genera' rul- inc and has requested the county !t tlection commission to furnish ballots tc tie absent soldiers. The sheriff de- ciares that the soldiers On the border are absent from the state on busi- ness and are entitled to cast their votes just as much as travelling men who are away from home or business It is expected that the controvel sy will be definitely settled by a court decision before primary day.
 Practically all of the interest in the Coming primaries is confined ta the Republican side. Among the Demo eats there will be no co1est of iin- portaace for places on the state ticket.

DIVIDE SCHOOL FUNDS.


 Little Rock, Aug. 22.-The depart ment of education is preparing to make the annual apportionment of the school fund on the first Monday in September. It is not known yet just what the fund will be, as the report has not been made by the state treasurer, and not all of the coliec- tions are in yet. The indications are that there will not be very large in crease in the enumeration of pupils In some instances the counties will show a decrease. For instance, How ard county reported 5,S73 persons ol school age in 1915, and this year there are 4,599. scott county reports a de- crease from 5,592 to 5,46S. There are not 9 great many counties, however that show decreases.

she needs money. her principles and
convictions prevent her from taking
the thousands which, she says, are

The source of my Uncle Ripley's
money was not pure. If there ever
was a skinhint on earth. that was
Uncle Ripley. He was a miser from
childhood, and the only pleasure he
took in living at all was in piling up
stacks of gold, grinning over his mort
cages, thinking up new ways to grind
out interest payments. l would rather
starve than take a cent of that money.
Me take the money ground out of un-
fortunate people? l guess not!"
