Cocoanut Oil Makes =.
A Splendid Shampoo

If 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 mulsihed
cocoanut oil (Which is pure and en-
tirely graseless), IS much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else you can use for shampooing, as
this can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in One or two tea
spoonfuls 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, dandTuff and ex-
cessive oil The hair dries quickly
and evenly, and it leaves it fine and
silky, bright, fluffy and easy to man
age.
You can get mulsihed cocoanut oil
at most any drug store. 1t is very
cheap, and few ounces is enough
to last everyone in the family for
months. hs.-Advertisement.

Puts Stomach in
Fine Condition
Says Indigestion Results from an
EXCESS of Hydrochloric
Acid.

Undigcsted food delayed in the
stomach decays, or rather, ferments,
the same as food left in the open air,
says noted authority. He also tells
us that Indigestion is caused by Hy-
pcr-acidity. meaning there is all cx-
cess of hydrochloric acid in the stom-
ach which prevents complete diges-
ton and starts food fermentation.
Thus everything eaten sours in the
stomach mich like garbage sours in a
can, forming acrid fluids and gases
which initiate the, stomach like toy
balloon. Then we feel heavy, lumpy
misery in the chest, we belch up
gas, we eructate sour food or have
heartburn, fatulence, water-brash or
nausea.
He tells us to lay aside all digcs-
tive aids and instead get from any
pharmacy four ounces of Jad Salts
and take tablespoonful in glass Of
water before breakfast and drink
while it is effervescing and, further
more, to continue this for week.
While relief follows the first dose,
it is important to neutralize the acid
ity, remove the gas-making mass,
start the liver, Stimulate the kidneys
and thus promote free flow of pure
digestive juices.
Jads Salts is inexpensive and is
made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia and
sodium phosphate This harmless
salts is used by thousands OF peo-
pie for stomach trouble with excel
lent results.-Advertiscment.

Are You Being Slowly
Poisoned?

The most eminent physicians
recognize that uric acid stored up in
the system is the cause of gout and
rheumatism, that this uric acid poison
is deposited in the joints, muscles or
nerve-sheath. By experimenting and
analysis at the Surgical Institute in
Buffalo, N. Y, DR. Pierce discovered
a combination OF native remedies that
he called Anuric, which drives out
the uric acid from the system, and in
this way the pain, swelling and in
hammation subside. If you are a
sufferer from rheumatism, backache,
pains here, or there, you can obtain
Anuric double strength) at any drug
store and get relief from the pains
and ills brought about by uric acid.
Swollen hands, ankles, feet are due
10 a dropsical condition, often caused
by disordered kidneys. Naturally,
when the kidneys are deranged the
blood is filled with poisonous uric
acid, which settles in the tissues of
the feet, ankles, wrists or back as
tlratic salts, or under the eyes in bag
like formations.
1t is just as necessary to keep the
kidneys acting properly as to keep
the bowels active to rid the body Of
poisons.
The very best possible way to take
care OF yourself is to take glass OF
hot water before meals and an Anuric
tablet. In this way it is readily dis
solved with the food, picked up by
the blood and finally reaches the kid
neys, where it has cleansing and
tonic effect.
Step into the drug store and ask
for a 50-cent package of Anuric, or
send DR.. Pierce l0c, for trial pckg.
Anuric-many times more potent
than lithia, eliminates uric acid as hot
water melts sugar. A short trial will
convince you.-Adyertiseme

its willingness to legalize the use OF
this land by the issuance of a special
use permit, contingent upon the pay
ment of the regulation annual fee for
such permits. Arthur Harvey, how
ever, apparently considered such
compliance on his part unnecessary
and refused to conform to the law.
Consequently United States Attor-
ney Stewart Investigated the case,
with the result that Judge Elliott has
issued a restraining order against
Harvey whereby he is ordered forth
with to remove the illegal enclosures
and also cease any trespass whatso-

To Relieve Catarrhal
Deafness And
Head Noises

Persons suffering from catarrhal deaf
ness and head noises will be glad to know
that this distressing affliction/ can usually
be successfully treated at home by an in
terna medicine that in many instances has
effected complete relief after other treat
ments have failed. Sufferers who could
scarcely hear have had their hearing re-
stored to such an extent that the Iick of
watch was plainly audible seven or eight in
ches away from either ear. Therefore, if you
know of someone who is troubled with head
noises or catarrhal deafness, cut out this
formula and hand it to them and you may
have been the means of saving some poor
sufferer perhaps from total deafness. The
prescription can be prepared at home and
is made as follows:
Secure from your druggist l o. Par
mint Double strength, about IS cents
worth. Take this home and add to it Y pint
of hot water and 4 OF. of granula ted sugar ::
stir until dissolved. Take one tablespoonful
four times a day.
Parmint is used in this way not only to
reduce by tonic action the inflammation snd
swelling in the Eustachian Tubes. and thus
to equalize the air pressure on the drum but
to correct any excess of secretions in the
middle ear. and the results it gives are
nearly always quick and effective.
Every person who has catarrh in any
form should give this recipe a trial.

To Overcome Eczema

Never mind how often you have tried
and failed, YOU can stop burning, itching
eczema quickly by applying little zemo
furnished by any druggist for 25c. Ex-
ira large bottle, $l.00. Healing begins
the moment zemo is applied. In short
time usually every trace Of eczema, tet-
ter, pimples, rash, black heads and SIM
liar skin diseases will be removed.
For clearing the skin and making it
vigorously healthy, always use zemo, the
penetrating, antiseptic liquid. 1t is not a
greasy salve and it does not stain. When
others fail it is the one dependable treat
ment for skin troubles of all kinds.
