Washington, June 21.-There were
approximately three million subscrib

age subscription was $1,000, according
to figures available at loan headquar-

was pointed out, is higher than the

issues, has averaged only Sis per

Alkali in Soap
Bad for the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully,
if you want to keep your hair looking
its best. Most soaps and prepared
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.
One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroly. Simply
moisten the hair with water and rub it
in. 1t makes an abundance of rich,
creamy lathcr, which rinses out easily.

WHOLESALE MURDERS
Military Law in Siberia Province to
Suppress Freed Criminals.

Petrograd, June 21.-Martial law
has been proclaimed in Tomsk, west
ern Siberia, because of wholesale MUIR
ders and robberies committed by GRIM
inalS who had been granted amnesty
and had jcined the forces of the mill
tant anarchists.
More than 1900 of these pardoned
criminals have been arrested with
about 500 others. Twenty persons
were killed and a number wounded
The arrests followed the exposure
of plot to plumber all the banks and
shops and to assassinate the leaders
of civic organizations. The 500 asso-
ciates of the criminals were dragged
from the haunts of the latter. The
casualties occurred when some resist
ance was offered to the arrests.

SURE OF VICTORY
HObSOn Says National Prohibit
ton Is Now Assured.
He Tells Topeka Audience
States Will Take Action.

National prohibition is coming, and
it is coming soon, too, according to
the flaying speech of Richmond P.
Hobson made at the final rally of the
national prohibition forces at the
closing program of their three days
convention Wednesday night.
IF congress fails to act at this ses-
sion, the temperance workers of the
nation will unite forces and introduce
the measure thru a constitutional
convention, called by petition of the
legislatures of thirty-two states Dry
forces have control of thirty-siX states
and can ratify the measure he said.
DRY forces can control the legisla-
lures of forty states,' he declared,
and with concerted action prohibit
ton can be in effect before the close
of the war"
In the Sixty-third congress, of 1914,
the prohibition constitutional amend
ment passed the house of representa-
tives and was killed by the senate.
Since that time, according to Hobson,

pairing for a final drive. With the
