Hair Often Ruined
By Washing With Soap

Soap should be used very carefully,

shampoos contain too much alkali.
This dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle, and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is just
ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil (Which
is pure and greaseless). and is better
than the most expensive soap or any
thing else you can use.

meals. Now as the inmates sit down
to each meal, a boy, chosen from the
Bible class, arises and in a voice audi
BILE over the huge dining room, re-
turns thanks.
There is no inclination on the part
of the inmates to scott at the new
custom, and while it is a genuine in
novation for some who have never
known a home much less one in
which thanks for the daily bread were
returned, the boys listen with bowed
heads.
