OF congratulation to President VIII
son, the majority of small stake
holders yesterday began paying Off
bets. 1t is estimated that fully S..
OO0OGO was distributed among those
who had the Wilson end of the many
bets made in the financial district.
Great dissatisfaction was expressed
at the attitude OF the commissioners
who are still holding back and there
was criticism in financial circles Of
Mr.. Hughes reluctance to admit his
defeat. Wall Street before the cleo
ton was Hughes almost to a man,
but the former justice is by no means
as popular now among the sporting
fraternity in the financial district as
he was prior to the election.

USE COCIANUT OIL
FOR WASHING HAIR

IL you want to keep your hair
In good condition, be careful what
you wash It with.
Most soaps and prepared sham
poos 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 entirely
greaseless) IL much better than
the most expensive soap or any
thing else you can use for sham
pooling, as this can't possibly in
jure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub 1t In. One or two
teaspoonfuls will make an abund-
ance of rich, creamy lather, and
cleanses the hair and scalp thor
oughly. The lather rinses out
easily, and removes every parti-
Gle of dust, dirt, dandruff and ex-
cessive oil The hair dries quick
ly and ekNly, and 1t leaves 1t 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 few ounces is
enough to last everyone in the
family for months.-Adv.

Cochran because the Thompson
