Don't Let Soap
Spoil Your Hair

When you wash your hair, be careful
what you use. Most soaps and prepared
stampoos contain too much alkali, which
is very injurious, as it dries the scalp
and makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain null.
sihed cocoanut oil, for this is pure and
entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and
beats the most expensive soaps or any
thing else all to pieces. YOU can get
this at any drug store, and few ounces
will last the whole family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about teaspoonful is all
that is required. 1t makes an abundance
of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thor
oughly, 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
dandruff.

Mrs l.. Simpson Of Irondale, Mo-,
mother of the young man has again
written to Coroner Lawrence Amen.
Mr.. Amen is willing to do anything

nibal track in the c., B. & @. switch
yards early one morning recently A
note was found on his person, indicat-
ing that the young man had killed
himself An inquest was conducted
and the jury found sufficient evidence
on which to base a verdict Of sui
eide.
The mother in the communication
received said that the handwriting was
not altogether. that Of Lloyd Simp-
son, and she Is certain that the young
man met with foul play and was kill

the note on young Simpson.
One other assertion she makes IS
that Simpsons name was nlisspel1ed.
He spelled his first name Lloyd" when
it is spelled Lloyd according to the
way the communication is interpreted,
thought the mother does not refer d.
rect1y to any word that was misspell-
ed. She did say that the name of the
young man was mi5spelled.

ARMS AND STARVATION.

According to Mr. Clifford Pnchot, the two great
weapons in the present arms and starvation In
letter to the editor, Mr.. Pincho writes follows:
"In this great time, when every citizen must do his
part the President has made his chief appeal to the
who live the land He is right in doing So for the
safety of country just is in the hands of our
farmers. What mean is not merely safety and the
safety of Allies in the matter of food mean that
the safety of the United States against foreign invasion
hangs on the decision of the farmers of the fortyeght
states.
THE two great weapons in this are arms and
starvation The war against German will be won
or lost in France-the against starvation will be
or lost IN America The Kaiser cannot whip the French
and English armies and the English navy while England
marines may be able to keep food enough from reaching
England to starve her into submission.
IF the submarines win the first item in the Kaisers
terms OF peace, will be the English fleet With the Eng
