not in touch with the events and who
certainly cannot be called experts.
You speak Of the possibility that

Hair Often Ruined
By Washing With Soap

Soap should be used very carefully, if
you want to keep your hair looking it's
best. Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is just
ordinary musitied cocoanut oil (Which
is pure and greaseless), and Is better than
the most expensive soap or anything else
you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply
moisten the hair with water and rub it
in. 1t makes an abundance of rich,
creamy lather, which rinses out easily,
removing every particle of dust, dirt
dandruff and excessive Oil. The la.r
dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves
the scalp soft. and the hair fine and silky
bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy TO man
age
You can get mulsitied cocoanut oil al
any pharmacy. it's very cheap. and a few
ounces will supply every member of the
family for months-Adv.

suspicion.
In these circumstances, shall
henceforth sternly prosecute any polit-
teal activity and any stirring up Of
hostile sentiment against the authori-
ties Of the occupying power. which au-
thority is legitimate according to in
ternational law.
III hitherto l submitted offenses OF
the clergy to Your Eminence for pun
ishment, I must now desist from this
procedure because Your Eminence sets
an example Of INSTRUMENTATION and,
therefore, no success can be expected
from your Intervention.
Your Eminence will once more re-
ply that misunderstood individual
passages Of the pastoral letter. As
such a controversy is wholly fruitless.

Moreover. I am firmly resolved no
more to allow Your Eminence to abuse
