It is interesting to discover, from
an examination Of the United States
Official Postal Guide, that among our
public men after whom towns have
been named, Franklin seems to lead
in popularity, there being 81 Frank
Inns in the country, as against 30 Clin-
tons, % Washingtons, 20 Hamiltons,
25 Madisons and 25 Monroes, % Lin
coins, q Jacksons, 20 Jeffersons, 18
Websters and Is Roosevelts. The
name which has appealed most to the
town founders, however, is Union,
which, with it's cOngeners, Unionville,
Uniontown, ETC., is applied to SO towns

End Based on Fighting Force.

Washington.-No economic questions
must be allowed to Interfere with the
raising of an American army large
enough and powerful enough to bring
an end to the war through victory on
the fields Of France. The Government,
through revised regulations for the

degree hardships upon industry and

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 mulsIfied
cocoAnut oil (Which is pure and en-
tirely greaseless), is much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else you can use for shampooing, as
this can't possibly inJure the hai-.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub IT in. One or two tea
spConfuls will make an abundance Of
-ich. creamy lather. and cleanses the
hair and scalp thoroughly. The lathe.
rinses out easily, and removes every
particle OF dust. dirt, dandruff and

cheap, and a few ounces is enough TO
