COCOANUT OIL MAKES
A SPLENDID SHAMPOO

If you want to keep your hair
in good condition, be careful what
you wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkali. This
dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle, and is very harmful. Just
plain mulsified cocoanut oil
(Which is pure and entirely
greaseless), is much better than
the most expensive soap or any
thing else you can use for sham
pooling, as this can't possibly in
jure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub 1t in. One or two
teaspoonfuls will make an abund-
ance of rich. creamy lather, and
cleanses the hair and scalp thor
oughly. The later rinses out cas-
lily and removes every particle Of
dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive
oil. The hair dries quickly and
evenly. and 1t leaves 1t fine and
silky, bright, fluffy and easy to
manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut
oil at most any drug store. 1t is
very cheap, and few ounces is
enough to last everyone in the
family for months. adv.

Sport hats are now worn with
the most elaborate chiffon frocks.
For facing and banding the hat
with the striped brim, blue and
gold taffeta was pulled into a
swirled effect. The line of the
crown and brim of this hat are
most artistic.
Equally elegant in shape and
unique in decoration is the smaller
hat of coarse blue straw. The
facing is of crepe and the flat en-
broidered blossoms are worked In
ewel directly on the straw.

Ask Me-!
BY CYNTHIA GREY

Dear Miss Grey: want to
say a word to Rebel" She
is like many other girls want
ing a good time, but hesitat-
ing at the price. I am one of
the wide path" girls and |
want to say that "all that
glitters is not gold" Like
Rebel" | wanted attention;
but found that l had to pay
for it and pay well.
These days unless q man Is
in love with you, he won't
spend time or money on you.
From my experience and
observations, | think Rebel"
is mistaken when she says
most of these girls marry the
men they want. Some do, OF
course, but | wouldn't say
the majority. I'm not mar
ried myself, and knowing men
as | do, could not marry one
and trust him, and after the
way I've lived, | wouldn't
marry and trust myself. I'm
in business and have no need
to marry for home or money.
l think these days a girl must
make her choice and take the
consequences.
I'm what is called a good
fellow and live one, and I'm
popular; but down in my
heart I'm not happy and I've
no future, and | know what a
price I've paid,
ONE WHO KNOWS.

Dear Miss Grey: In answer
to Rebel" a cannot say IL
the statements are true in all
classes and communities but
in mine they are. | for one
heartily indorse all Rebel
has stated in her letter.
1t appears quite easy at
times to make the acquaint-
ance of some men, yet | can
not help but feel if | try to
be jolly and friendly with
them they will think me for
ward. If l can't have their
respect as we'll as friendship
l prefer them as strangers.
| will make an exception
by saying most of the young
men of today appear to pre-
fer the type of girl Rebel
describes and when they learn
you are not that kind they
seldom seek your company
second time.
What has become of the
boy who enjoys a girl chum
for a virtuous, whole-hsart-
ed, jolly good time?
REBELS ENDORSER.
Dear Miss Grey: 1t isn't
often that we have such
clean and interesting ques-
ton put to us as the one from
Rebel" Virtue Is a quail
ity every man expects in the
girl he marries. To the great
majority, all others are "legi-
innate prey"
Lack of manly men is to
blame for the conditions so
truthfully told.
The normal girl Graves
companionship and protection
and expects it from her gen.
tleman friends. 1t should be
the greatest honor to man to
accept that trust and how
many are animals, having
less than animal instinct?
The male fox always helps
to rear his offspring, but how
many men abandon wife and
offspring? When our churches,
our society, and government
take interest in our social af-
fairs to the extent that they
recognize the need of some
means of amusement where
desirable companions can be
found. Then there may be
the opportunities that honor
able men and virtuous girls
can take advantage Of.

MAYOR GILL AGAIN.

Mayor Gill of Seattle is in hot water again. This
fact Gill does not mind he isan freshman character
isically fond Of political sticus; and seldom does
an opponent either the platform or in street poll
tics get the better of this unique personality among
American municipal executives.
Whether Gill is guilty of betraying his city
through alliance with boetleggers operating in the
nowdry territory Of the state Of Washington, or il
the victim of plot of the same bootleggers and
their strong-arm men remains TO be seen Since he
was reelected mayor of the city and given chance
to wipe out the shame of his recall, Gill has appar
emily been working for law and order. His enforce
nent Of the "dry" law has been picturesque as
TWAS vigorous Under Chief of Police Rockingham

ply wrecked the resorts where liquor was sold
illegaly. Yet the bootleggers have been persistent
II active and hundreds of violations of the law were
profea with the probability that large number Of
blenders were never detected.
The prohibitionists are standing by Gill, accord
ing to tOdays report, which would indicate they be
Iieve him the victim of frameup to discredit his

"HoME RULE" IN PRACTISE.

The nomination of John +. Poindexter Of Mon
tana for United States Judge in Hawaii has taken
by surprise most OF the brethren of the bench. the
bar and politics in general. The tip had gone out
that District Attorney Huber would be elected 10
the federal bench but very likely the department Of
justice feels that il should LET well enough alone in
the district attorneys Office here and keep on the
Job one who is effacing the memory Of Mechanism.
A few days ago the Star. Bulletin told Of private
letter being received from Washington limiting that
nainlander would be apparent to fill the Clemens va.
caney and this tip proves TO be the correct guess out
Of a half dozen involving the pending appointment
Hawaii knows nothing of Mr.. Poindexter except for
small amount Of heaisay, so that any criticism Of
the appointment now cannot possibly be personal
The fact is that in this. in many past instances,
Washington ignores local Democracy in making its
appointments to high Office in Hawaii snub so
frequent that it is no less than rebuke In theory
the national Democratic party encourages the prin
ciple of states rights and home rule but when il
comes time TO apply the theory to Hawaii the Prin
ciple is honored in the breach instead Of the OBJ
eefyance.
