Cocoanut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what yon
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much allSah. 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 can use for shampooing. as
this can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with wa
ter and rub it in. One or two tea
spoonfuls will make an abundance of
rich, creamy lather. and cleanses the.
hair and scalp thoroughly. The lath-
er 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, fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get muisified cocoanut Oh
at most any drug store 1t is very
cheap, and a few ounces is enough TO
last every one in the family for
months.-Adyertisem

trio company sets forth its complaint
of the treatment accorded it by the
public utilities commission.
According to the petition the EN-
pire District Electric company took
over the property of the Weir City
Waterworks company in October
1918. The old water company had q
franchise from Weir City granted in
1889, which established water rates.
That franchise expired December g..
1914, and the city council granted a
new franchise fixing lower rates on
water.
The electric company, holder Of the
new franchise, complains that the new
rates are not compensatory, stating
that the new rates. cause loss of
$4,000 a year, Onsthis ground appli
cation was made to the public uti1i-
ties commission for the establishment
of equita BILE rates. on March 16 the
commission issued an order putting
into effect practically the same rates
fixed in the franchise by the Weir
City council and it is this order the
electric company seeks to- sidetrack.
