NO PLACE FOR BABIES.

All too often, every day, do the Gus

the poor from a blessing into curse
and an insupportable burden,
All too often are parents that love
their children as dearly as the rich

sity to place them in institutions or
desert them. and when the cause is
sifted to the bottom the fault II
found TO be less with the parents
than with the senesless and heartless

Careless Use of
Soap Spells the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully, II
you want to keep your hair looking its
best Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkal This
dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle,
and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is just
ordinary mulsi6ed 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,
dandruff and excessive oil. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves
the scalp soft, ard the hair fine and
silky bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get mulsihed cocoanut oil at
any pharmacy, it's very cheap, and few
ounces will supply every member of the
family for months.

CATARRHAL DEAFNESS CANNOT
BE CURED

by local applications. as they cannot

There is only one way to cure catar-
rhal deafness, and that is by a consti-
tutional remedy. Catarrhal deafness
Is caused by an infiamed condition
Of the mucouus lining of the eustach-
ian tube. When this tube is infiamed
you have a rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely
closed deafness Is the result. Unless
the inflammation can be reduced and
this tube restored TO it's normal condi-
ton. hearing will be destroyed forever.
Many cases of deafness are caused by
catarrh. which is an infamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces. Halls
