Hair Often Ruined
By Washing With Soap

Soap should be used very carefully
if you want TO keep your hair looking
its best. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much alkaH.
This dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle, and ruins 1t.
The best thing for steady use is just
ordinary mulsifed cocoanut oil (Which
is pure and greaseless), and is better
than the most expensive soap or any
thing 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,
dandruf and excessive oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves
the scalp soft, and the hair fine and
silky, bright, lustrous. fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get mulsifed cocoanut oil at
any pharmacy; it's very cheap, and a
few ounces will supply every member
Of the family for months.

Frank w. Coy stated that the propo-
sition should be treated as a temporary
Offer. as it is submitted as VerifcatiOn
Of the verbal offer, which declared it
to be temporary. AIthoueS the Nara
gansett Lighting COMPANY had owned
the local plant for two years, it seemed
but fair to extend the time to give the
company ample opportunity to consider
the proposition. In this latest propO-
sitiOn no mention is made to it as q
temporary agreement, yet he believed
it should be treated as such by the
council. He could see no reason why
Westerly should pay twelve cents for
electric lights when other places no
larger than Westerly got the service
for nine cents. He did not consider a
minimum charge necessary, it should
not be more than 81 month and on
a yearly adjustment plan not monthly
that is the minimum charge for the
year should be $12 and not 81 a month
He advocated that this proposition
should he treated as a temporary
agreement, to have it so understood, and
thereby hold the ground gained, anG
our right retain the petition now with
the public utilities commission.

President Flynn suggested that the

President Flynn said the proposition
was before the council and could not
be treated as temporary agreement,
as it was pronounced permanent in its
terms. Frederick c. Buffum agreed
with all that Mr.. Coy had said, but he
wanted to emphasize the minimum
charge feature which was the real CON
tention. He said he closed his town
home in Westerly and went to Week
apaug where he paid quite a sum for
electric lights. Still for his home in
Westerly, where he had used no cleo
trio light for months he was Obliged
to pay a minimum charge Of 81 a
month. This he considered to be
wrong and that in other places the
charge was less for the same current
Councilman Robinson asked Mr..
Rufun if he knew that he could have
the meter taken out and be relieved OF
the minimum charge. Mr. Buffun re-
piled Yes.

knew that the taking out Of the meter.
would be done without any charge 10

He too spent part of the year at the
beach. He said he had used just six
cents worth of electricity in his Wes-

he paid the minimum charge of 81. He
did not want TO take the meter out OF
his house as he or some members OF
the family might visit there for a few
