Cocoanut Oil Makes
i, A Splendid Shampoo

If you want TO keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash 1t with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
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 en-
tirely greaselessJ, is much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else you can use for shampooing, as
this can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with wa
ter and rub II in. One or two tea
spoonfuls will make an abundance of
rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the
hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather
rinses out easily and removes every
particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and ex-
cessive oil. The hair dries quickly
and evenly, and it leaves it fine and
silky. bright, fluffy and easy to man.

You can get mulsified cocoanut oil

cheap, and a few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family for

Penrose is Against
Blanket Authority

Washington, d. c.. Feb. %. An
extra session of Congress is almost in
evitable. according to the view of Sena-
tor Penrose, of Pennsylvania. He said
that for his own part he was willing to
remain at Washington even through
the hot summer months rather than
give sanction to a situation wherein the
Executive branch of the Government
would conduct foreign affairs without
the cooperation of Congress.
Senator Penrose made it clear that
he and other Republican leaders would
give their approval to the arming of
American merchantmen. He was not
willing, however, to give a blanket en-
dorsement to the President, covering
any possible mistake that might be
made due to independent action with
out consultation with Congress. Sena-
tor Penrose said:
I'VE gave such q blanket endorse
ment to the President when he sent the
troops into Vera Cruz and the result
was a fiasco. The United States Gov
ernment was placed in the position of
marching up the hill and marching
down again.
81 should think the President would
want to keep Congress in session. If
there should be an overt act of such
character as to make war inevitable, 1
belieye Congress unitedly will support
the President"

A GREAT MEDICINE

That most successful of all RENEE
dies for woman's ailments, Lydia L.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, owes
it's origin to a botanic recipe which
came into the possession of Lydia e.
Pinkham about fifty years ago.
This recipe had proved so effective
in the practice of a skilled physician
that Mrs. Pinkham procured the herbs
and stepped and prepared them in true
old-time fashion on her kitchen stove
for her friends and neighbors who
suffered from woman's. ailments. The
fame of the virtues of this wonderful
medicine spread, until it is to-day rec
ognized as the standard remedy for
woman's ills.

Coroner McGlathery was notified.
The company states that the accident
was due to the breaking of a four
inch elbow on a boiler, which caused
friction on the line and in turn caused
a water packet leading to the engine
to break and fall. The plant was
closed last Saturday and an inspection
of the boilers were made. According
to an official the examination proved
satisfactory.
