The MontenearIn,s Arms.

To ask Montenegrin to surrender
his firearms, even to the family heir
loom, as the Austrians are now pro-
posing is like asking Covenanter to
surrender his Bible. A Black noun
tain proverb runs: You might as well
take from me my brother as my
rife. The Monteregrin adores his
revolver as doting father does a
beautiful daughter; and baby in his
cradle is given the buttend TO play
with. A Montenegrin without rife

which the war is every now and then

Use Cocoanut Oil
For Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in good
condition, be careful what yau 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 mulsided cocoanut
oil (which is pure and entirely grease
iess). is much better than the most ex-
pensiye soap or anything else You can
use for shampooing, as this can't pos
sibly injure the hair
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls
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 excessive oil The haii
dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves
it fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get mulsifed cocoanut oil a.
