HAIR OFTEN RUINED
BY WASHING WITH SOAP
\. !. i. >; * :: X X X X * X

Soap should be used very carefully,
If you want to keep your hair look,
ing its best. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too mucn alkali. This
dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle,
and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is just
ordinirp mulsified 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 il
in. 1t makes an abundance of rich,
creamy lataer, which rinses out easily,
removing every particle OF dust, dirt,
drndruff and excessive oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves
the scalp soft, and tht haid fine and
silky, bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil at
any pharmacy, it's very cheap, and a
few ounces win supply every member
Of the family for months.

Torpedoed, Says Fireman

London, Sept. 15.-Frank Callingham
of Philadelphia, fireman aboard the
Harrison liner Counsellor, made an af-
fidavit before the United States con-
sui at Queenstown that the Counsellor
was torpedoed.
The captain and crew of the Coun-
sellor were landed at Queenstown.
Callingham, who is an American citi-
zen, shipped aboard the Counsellor when
she touched at San Francisco. His wife
is now at Atlantic City, n. J.
A London dispatch last night said the
Counsellor was "sumk' and that her
crew was saved, but nothing was report
ed about the circumstances of the sink
ing.
The Counsellor was last reported as
having sailed from Colon, Panama,
August 81, en- route from Vancouver

near the British Isles. The Counsellor
displaced 1858 tons and was 400 feet
long. She was owned by the Charente

Liverpool.

The sixth annual Pacific Information.
al live stock exposition will be held

This exposition is entirely education

live stock.
Owing to the generous appropria-
tions of the Oregon Bankers association
the Portland Chamber of Commerce,
the state of Oregon and the different
breed associations, the show this year
will rank with the largest live stock
associations in the United States.
Between $4,000 and $4,000 cash
premiums will be offered for live stock.
The Shorthorn and Hereford associa-
tions of America have made appropria-
tions of $5,000 and as the exposition
itself mas added an equal amount, these
two breeds alone will compete for the
$4,000, thus securing the kcenest com.
petition.
The dairy division, which includes
Holsteins, Jerseys, Guernseys and Ayr
shires will compete for $4,000 offered
in cash prizes. The sheep class will
have $4,000 and hogs about the same
amount. The draft type of horses are

cultural students of the northwest, will

ing classes is November l3 and for fat
