Be Careful in Using
Soap on Your Hair

Most soaps and prepared shampoos
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
mulsified cocoanut oil, for it is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very
cheap, and beats the most expensive
soaps or anything else all to pieces.
You can get this at any drug store,
and a few ounces will last the whole
family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is all
that is required. II makes an abund-
ance of rich, creamy lather. cleanses
thoroughly. and rinses out easily The
hair dries quickly and evenly. and is
soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy,
and easy to handle. Besides. 1t loosens
and takes out every particle of dust,
dirt and dandruff.-Adv.

MOTOR VEHICLES
REGISTERED IN U, S

| Washington. July 5.-In 1916 there
were 1,067,332 more motor cars regis
tered in the United States than in 1915
This was an increase of 43 per cent
The gross total of registered cars, in
Guiding commercial cars was 3,512,996;
the number of motor cycles registered
was 250,S20. The several states col
lected in registration and license fees,
including those of chauffeurs and
operators, a total gross revenue of s25,-
S65,369.75. OF this amount 81 per cent,
or $23.910,S11, was applied directly to
construction, Improvement, or main
tenance of the public roads in 43
states, according to figures compiled
, by the Office of Public Roads of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture, in Circular rs, automobile Reg
| istrations, Licenses and Revenues in
the United States, 1915"
The figures for 1916 correspond very
closely with the annual percentage in
crease of motor-car registration of the
last three years. This yearly increase
has averaged 40 per cent in the number
of cars and so per cent in revenues.

$4,000 More Men Needed to

Strength.

! Recruiting for the regular army did
not come up to the expectations of the
war department. 1t was hoped that
with the appeal of the President for
volunteers, combined with the fact that
the Draft Law would soon become eff
| fective and the assurance Of seeing
active service abroad in the defense
Of their country, would have the effect
of bringing out thousands of young
men.
About 10000 responded during the
week ending June 30th. About $4,000
more are needed to fill the ranks of the
regular army to war strength. Young
men of military age should remember
that this is the best season OF the year
to get into training. and that much
valuable time is being lost from carry
:. ing out our war preparations on an
efficient basis. This is owing to the
fact that the regular army has the
equipment, organization and officers
to train the volunteers who come for
ward now, but there are no officers,
equipment or fac lities for training the
new national army.
For this reason every man who has

Highway Commission and County
Commissioners. 1t was decided to re-
place Young's bridge. which is old and
unsafe, with a concrete bridge. costing
s2400: so per cent of the cost to be
borne by the town. 20 per cent by the
state and 80 per cent by the county.
Contracts will be advertised for as
soon as the specifications can be pre-

to replace what is known as Skidmore

ground that the law applies to bridges
