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 mulsified
cocoanut oil (Which is pure and en-
tirely greaseless), is much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else you cen use for shampooing. as
this can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply mofsten your hair with water
and rub it in. One or two teaspoon
fuls 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 ex-
cessive oil. The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and it leaves it fine and silky,
bright, fluffy and easy to manage.
You can get mulSified 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.

SCIENCE, STYLE AID
RemodeIling of Mems Toys Necessary
to Assure Proper Posture

Detroit, Mich, June 14.-Science
has taken a hand in shaping mems
ready made garments in order to pre-
serve health DR.. Henry L. Taylor, sec
rotary of the American Posture
organization here today. He said, 1T
is an odd fact that, while invention
and research have enormously i'm
proved communication, transportation
and methods of manufacture, clothing
and furniture, the things that affect
US most intimately. have been al
most untouched by scientific in
vestigation. Realizing the need
of such work, a national organ
ization, the American Posture league,
has taken up the study of clothing,
seating and working conditions, with a
view of formulating underlying prin-
ciples, and applying them to CONNER
cial material Important practical
results have already been obtained.
Ready made coats for men and
boys have been remodeled, so as to
favor good posture and principles of
garment suspension have been worked
out and applied. An extensive in
vestigation of the shapes of average
feet showed three different types
each of which requires a different
shape of shoe. From a study of
measurements of the seated figure
certain proportions and principles of
support have been applied to seats in
subway cars, school seats and office
chairs, so that they shall support the
body in a restful and correct posture

1dUtlludteS-
Beloit, June 1.-THE congressional
situation in the Sixth district is warm
ing up as the primary election ap-
proacheS. The present incum bent,
John Connolly, is in Washington, at
tending to the needs of the district.
The two Republican candidates, R.
M. Anderson of Mitchell county, and
o. L. Benton of Decatur county, are

crowd; at meetings in Norton, Oberlin,
Se1den, Wilson, Annapolis and other
towns. He spoke today in Russell

most wonderful campaigns a politi-
clan ever made. He has routed every
county three and four times, putting
in a full week in many of them, and
has shaken hands with probably more
| men and women than any man living
in the district.
Mitchell county has been repre-
scented in congress by L. D. Young, the
first and only congressman the county
ever had. The late Judge A. H. Ellis,
of Beloit, was beaten twice for con-
gressiona1 honors by the Populists. r.
| G. Heard and D. A. Freeman, both
Mitchell county Democrats, were beat
en- for congress after they had been
nominated.
l. D. Young had the honor of being
