USE COCOANUT OIL
FOR WASHING HAIR

If you want to keep your hair
in good condition. be careful what
you wash it with,
Most soaps and prepared sham
noos 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 IL In. One or two
teaspoonfuls will make an abund-
ance of rich, creamy lather, and
cleanses the hair and scalp thor
oughly. The lather rinses out
easily, and removes every particle
OF dust, dirt, dandruff and excess
sive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly. and II leaves 1t fine
and silky. bright. fluffy iandseasy
to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut
oil at most any drug store. 1t IL
very cheap, and a few ounces IL
enough to last everyone in the

Mrs. Gompers, who is a moth

every woman not only to hold up
the hands of labor by making her

every effort to get the most out

Keep true never be ashamed of doing right; de-
eide on what you think is right, and stick to it,
George Eliot.


Tacoma is in the midst of great period of
growth.
And while it FORCES ahead in influence, in in
dustry, in population its institutions must keep
pace or cease to be of maximum service
The Tacoma General hospital, as one of these
city institutions, must increase its facilities in
every line to serve the increasing demands made
upon it.
To do this it must depend upon every citizen
for support. For it is Tacomas own institution.
1t is not a profitmaking concern. 1t is not
stock company 1t has no stockholders 1t be-
longs, not to any group of persons, but to every
man, woman and child in the city.
1t stands up there on the hill, bulwark Of
service, ready to respond to YOUR need; ready
to march ahead in its battle for life and health,
if YOU will let it. It is not this reason that the
appeal for funds is being made today
The responsibility rests upon every citizen.
Don't be a shirker. Join the army of men and
women, citizen stockholders in big cause, who
will subscribe to the fund which is to make our
hospital of greater and greater service

The keet Baby

Abduction-the mothers universal horror
arouses great dread in ten million homes to-
day. Mothers know in their hearts that nobody
wants to carry off the precious dependent human
atom which blesses their roof. But the Keet kid
mapping case thrills every parents soul to it's pro-
foundest depth.
Mothers wake and reach out restlessly in the
dark to touch with gentle finger the warm pink
bundle in the crib beside them. Fathers feel
strangely relieved, and rise gladly for once, when
they hear their own babe crying in the night.
All parents everywhere sympathize with the
Keets over the pillaging of their treasure.
In the midst of world torn with war, all this
remarkable commotion about little lost child
holds a promise, Cynics and careless thinkers
say that this war is hardening the hearts of men,
that it proves civilization total failure.
But the case of the Keet baby proves that the
germ of human tenderness is indestructible
ABDUCTION is THE ONE CRIME FOR
WHICH SOCIETY HAS A RIGHT TO DE-
MAND, NOT PUNISHMENT, NOT REFOR-
NATION BUT VENGEANCE. And there are
persons who would infct capital punishment
upon but one class of criminals-child stealers.

Dear Cynthia Grey: SO
many letters have appeared
in your columns lately from
men who bewail the scarcity
of girls with brains.
Why, oh why do you men
expect so much more than
than you can give?
Some of you young men
complain because girls care
only for your car. or spend
ing money. But | know for
fact, that most men think
these things are all they need
to make themselves attract
i've. No matter how unintel-
ligent or boresome a man is,
we are expected to smile
upon him because he owns a
car or has money.
Eleven men out of ten are
looking for the girl with
"class" or who Is a good
sport" and they have no time
for the sincere, decent girl.
| was interested in a letter
published in your column re-
Gently. | believe the writer
signed himself Happy Bach
elor' and his views we're
more nearly sensible than
any | have heard from men
in a long time.
am a working girl and
work all day at work that is
physically exhausting. So
when night comes | am in
frame of mind where the
average brainless man is dis
gusting.
Isn't it a fact that all the
majority care to talk about,
is the chicken they had out
the night before or some
thing equally as interesting?
So is it any wonder we care
only for their cars, when
there is no other attraction?
Perhaps you men don't
realize this, but when you
wake up and try to do your
part you won't find it SO
hard to meet girls who are
interesting. A man who is
not unwilling to give me a
few pleasures and at the
same time Is intelligent
enough to be interesting Is
something rarely found.
ANOTHER SKEPTICAL GIRL.
Q.-I want your advice on
this proposition. | arrived
at a new boarding house. l
was there about a week
when l found myself in love
with the landlady, who is a
widow. She Is also in love
with me. But 1t happened
the day | came to this place
she had gone to purchase a
ticket to Alaska with the In
tention of going to a man
who had written her with
the idea of marrying her
when she would arrive and
meet him. I often felt peev-
edo over this, and every time
one of her friends would
come to visit her, I noticed
they would praise this man
in Alaska, and would say she
was making a big mistake
not to go to him.
