By BILL PRICE. .

Revision OF the traffic and parking

Don't Let Soap
Spoil Your Hair

When you wash your hair, be care
full what you use. 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
mulsifed cocoanut oil, for this 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. 1t makes an
abundance 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, IT loosens and takes
out every particle Of dust, dirt, and
dandruff.-Advt.
