Don't Let Soap
 Spoil Your Hair

When you wash your hair, be care ful what you use. Most soaps and pre- pared ~shampoos contain too much alka- Ii, whichbis very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle :
 The best thing to use is just plain 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 fo- months.
 Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is all that is required It makes an abund= ance of rich, creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly. and rinses ont 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
