HAIR OFTEN RUINED
BY WASHING WITH SOAP

Soap should be used very care
fully, II you want to keep your
hair looking its best. Most soaps
and prepared shampoos contain
too much alkali. This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle, and
ruins u.
The best thing for steady use
Is just ordinary mulsified cocoa
nut oil (Which is pure and
greaseless), and is better than
the most expensive soap or any
thing else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thor
oughly. Simply moisten the hair
with water and rub II in. It
makes an abundance Of rich,
creamy lather, which rinses out
easily, removing every particle of
dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive
oil. The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and 1t leaves the scalp
soft, and the hair fine and silky,
bright, lustrous, fluffy and easy
to manage.

oil at any pharmacy, it's very
cheap, and a few ounces will sup

Lincoln's election In 1860 was
the signal for South Carolina's
Legislature to adopt secession
ordinance on Dec. 20, 1850, which
was followed in January by Mis-.
sissippi, Florida, Alabama and
Texas, Virginia, Arkansas, Nortp
Carolina and Tennessee.

action of southern leaders, allow

Ala, by representatives OF the first
seven seeding states.
Lincoln in his inaugural de-
clared he had no intention OF in
terfering with slavery, but that
the seeding states must remain
in the Union.
Fort Sumter, in Charleston
harbor, surrendered to the South
Carolina state forces, after q long

Congress called at first for only
$4,000 men, bat after the Union
defeat at Bull Run, which i'm

was increased to 100000.
BY the end of 1851 the north
had $4,000 men in arms, the
south $4,000.
On Jan l., 1853, Lincoln
freed all slaves.

caused widespread disaffectior
with the government, and In July
there were riots in New York, pro

turning point Of the war.
A few days after Gettysburg
the confederates, forced by fam.

MOUTH.
IL We stop to consider the fact
that child's food is no cleaner
than its mouth, we easily see the
Importance of keeping this part
of the body clean.
Up to the time the child gets
its back teeth the best way to
clean its mouth is by using q
swab. Wrap small piece of cot
ton around the little finger, dip
into saturated solution of boric
acid and swab out the entire
mouth. If this Is done at least
twice twice day the child will
have comparatively clean mouth.
When the back teeth have
erupted, buy small brush and
use it. No difficulty will be found
to interest the children and be-
fore long we find them thinking
of the tooth brush as systematic
ally as of their meals. We should
remember that many preventable
diseases such as tuberculosis
dyphtheria, pneumonia and ty-
phoid fever may be caused by un.
clean conditions in the mouth.
Early habit will remain with chill
dren and il we teach them ia
keep their mouths clean it is rea-
sonable to think they will do SO
all of their lives.
PACIFIERS AND THUMB
SUCKING.
How often the memory of a
baby face is a picture of the little
fellow with his thumb or pacifier
in his mouth. The habit of suck
ing his thumb may be a habit ac-
CURED by the baby himself, that
of sucking the pacifier, sugar ball
bread ball, etc, is a habit fol-
which someone Is directly respon.
sible, and the baby is the one who
suffers for it.
The latter particularly is a dis.
gusting habit. The pacifier can
not be kept clean and SO very
readily carries germs of disease
into the baby's mouth.
Such habits often spoil the nat
ural arch of the child's mouth by
causing protrusion Of the upper
jaw.
To break up either habit re-
quires much resolution and pa.
thence on the part of the mother
but surely II is worth while when
the well-being of the child is al
stake.

Baby's bath is helpful tonic.
His skin must be kept clean II the
pores are to do their part in carry
Ing off the poisonous waste prod
ucts of his body.
Every normal baby, except in
cases of severe chatting or skin
eruption, should be given a full
tub bath daily.
The room for the bath should
not be hot, about ~ degrees. The
temperature Of the water should
be at body heat or a little above
9S-100, and may be gradually re-
duced to 95 at six months. The
best substitute for bath Their

not the hand. Every precaution
should be taken to avoid unnec-

his skin is very tender and may

reason use the purest of soaps and
