Use Cocoanut Oil
For Washing Hair

II you want to keep your hair in good
condition, be careful what you 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 greSseless), Is much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else you can use for shampooing, as
this can't possibly inoure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls
will make an abundance of RICH
creamy lather, and cleanses the hair
and scalp thoroughly. The lather
rinses out easily, and removes every
particle of dust, dirt. dandruff, and ex-
cessive oil. The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and ii leaves 1t fine and silky,
bright fluffy and easy to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil at
most any drug store. 1t Is very cheap,
and a few ounces is enough to last
everyone in the family for months.

WHY THE REVOLUTION sue.

WHY THE REVOLUTION suc-
CEE0ED.
Harpers: How did It all come to
pass? How was the magic transfer
nation brought about?
That the revolutionary movement
had been making Roadway not only
among the rank and file OF the army,
but also among its officers, was well
known. and yet the ease with which
aristocratic regiments were won over
to the cause of democracy. and more
especially the responsive attitudes of
officers Of the court battalions and Of
the general stan, was as much of a.
surprise to the revolutionists as IL
was to the car. Something had ap-
parently occurred behind the scenes
the nature Of which has not yet been
disclosed.
The new revolution was effected at
once from above" and from below.
Indeed. the duma committee of IL,
which has assumed the reign OF pow
er is composed chiefly of liberals and
moderates and includes only two So
cialists. AS for the ultra conserva-
ives, or blacks. they are not repre-
scented. The new revolution, however,
like the revolt OF 1905. was begun by
workingmen, and their representatives.
the Council OF Workmen's and Sol
diers' deputies. so often mentioned in
the press dispatches, form something
like a semiofficial body to the official
committee of IL. which is the compan-
ion provisional government.
There Is a tendency in some quar-
ters to trace the triumphant upheaval
to foreign sources, to label 1t Made
inEngland". This is chiefly based on
the fact that Professor Milukoff visited
London and Lord Miner visited Pet
rograd some time before the outbreak
took place. But momentous events in
the inner life of a nation was undoubt-
eddy of domestic origin, the outcome
Of purely Russian conditions. 1t was
the elimination. in fact, of long
chain of revolutionary movements full
Of lofty idealism and martyrism, ex
