Be Careful in Using
 Soap on Your Hair

Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkah, which is very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle.
 The best thing to use is just plain mulsified cocoanut oil, for it is pure and entirely STea seless. It's very cheap, and beats the most expensive soaps or anything else all to pieces You can get this at any drug store and a few ounces will last the whole family for months.
 Simply moisten the hair with water and rub 1t in, about a teaspoonful is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy father, cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly and Is soft, fresh looking, bright. fluffy. wavy, and easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust, dirt and dandruK.
