Alkali Makes Soap
Bad For Washing Hair

Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkaii, which is very
Injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes
the hair brittle.
. The best thing to use is just plain mul.
SIZED cocoanut oil, for this is pure and
entirely greaseless. Its 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
ourfly, and rinses out easily. The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and is soft.
fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and
easy to handle. Besides. it 1oosens and
takes out every particle Of dust, dirt and
dandruf.

Daily Stock Letter.

NEW YORK, March 21.-The New
York Evening Sun financial review
today said:
The conflict of elements that oper-
ate to influence the course of the Sc
curities market was quite pronounced
today and served to neutralize to a
large extent the diverse tendencies
which manifested themselves from
time to time throughout the session.
Coincident with the presidents eXecu-
tive order calling an extra session OF
congress on April 2, fortnight
earlier than had been planned, came
renewed reports from abroad that
Germany was again sounding the
allies with respect to peace negotia-
lions. 1t is not surprising, therefore.
that the stock market backed and
filed repeatedly, at intervals forging
ahead in almost feverish trading
again hesitant and yielding.
The advancing Of the date for the
extra session of congress was some
what stimulating on the general list.
presumably on the theory that the
LEGISLATORS would declare war and
that that would mean increasing In
dustrial expansion.
The motor and sugar shares were
heavy. The shipping issues moved
forward to substantial gains. The
steel stocks responded in somewhat
cratic fashion to the United States
steel report, but held to the upward
side for the most part. The railway
list again Jagged and with few e1,
ceptions was soft.
Trading continued brisk to the
close, the total turnover again ex
ceeding a million shares.
