trated inland into the eastern counties.
They followed erratic courses and
dropped a number of bombs in country
districts. apparently being unable to
locate their position. The raiders
were pursued by our airplanes. but thick
clouds enabled them to make good their
escape. One man was killed in a Nor
folk village. The material damage is
believed TO be negligible"

COCOAEUT OIL FINE
FOR WASHING HAIR

II 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 oocoanut 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 cant possibly in
lure 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 lather rinses out
easily, and removes every particle
of dust, dirt, dandruff and excess
sive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly, and 1t leaves It 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 a few ounces is
enough to last everyone In the
family for months.

How much she has changed
for the worse-since she mar
ried." friends say of the dowdy
wife and sloppy housekeeper.
And they lay the change to the
drudgery of housework, or her
husbands small salary, or mater
nifty, when all of the time the
woman has just slumped AND is
AT LAST REVEALING HER
OWN TRUE SELF.
In this unbecoming role,
many a man discovers a new
woman, who Is quite a stran-
ger, occupying the place of
the neat and pretty girl he
took TO wife.
Often it Is as though a girl had
put forth the one great effort of
her life to catch a husband and
had no more ambition or energy
left with which to make herself
an attractive chum and smart lit
tie business partner.
But as a changeling, a wife may
astonish her husband in quite an
other way.
Woman often reveals her rarest
charms only when she is severely
tested. Matrimony is such trial.
The maiden who has been quiet,
bashful and subduced sometimes
takes on an astonishing brilliancy
after marriage. She suddenly re-
veals as many dazzling facets as
her engagement solitaire.
And all, perhaps, for her own
undoing.
A stupid man frequently dis
trusts vivacious wife. A jealous

Her Seven Selves!
TOWARD HER HUSBAND EVERY WOMAN Is
CHANGELING, SAYS WINONA WILCOX

mans chief pleasure is to stamp
out his wife's originality. Men OF
a certain type grow sullen and vi
cious as their wives grow re-
sourceful.
Marriage and maternity
develop u woman's natural
tendencies. She is at her
best OF her worst in a few
years.
Whether a husband approves
of his changeling wife or not, is
of the utmost importance, not
only for her happiness but for his
own inspiration and growth.
A wife fixes a mans standard
of womanhood. AS she is brave,
loyal and unselfish. he believes
all other women to be. If she is
tickle and lazy, SO he imagines
the rest of her sex. Men revere
their mothers as matter oil
course, but usually as marvellous
exceptions to the common rules
which govern other women.
We have all been talking sc
much about the glories of mother
hood lately we seem in a fail
way to forget how important and
wonderful the wife may be.
Perhaps in no other way is she
so powerful for good as in hel
ability to keep her husbands

Dear Miss Grey: Will you
let me put an oar" into this
discussion on boys and girls
kissing? My years of expe-
rience have taught me great
many things. and | want to

column this:

boys do not want to kiss ev-
cry girl they go with.
The ones who are chival-
rous and honorable believe
that all girls have a right to
their protection; that. in
stead of tempting their girl
friends to be indiscreet, it is
their duty to uphold them in
keeping their self-respect.
You know that a man who
would trade upon or take ad-
vantage OF q woman's weak
ness Is an unspeakable
creature, not fit for respect
able company. So the boy
who tries to kiss a girl to
whom he is not engaged
should be Stunned by nice
girls.
