BY I. A. FLEMING.

The Clearing House Association OF
New York city has taken a hand in the
interest-paying problem in an endeavor
TO have unanimity of action, and to pre-
vent further disturbance through pos
sible shifting of country bank balances
for the added inducement of little
larger interest.
In this action the clearing house but
gives support to the federal reserve
board, the latter being especially anX-
ious to keep the financial situation IN
disturbed as the date for the opening OF
the campaign for the third liberty loan.
April 6, approaches
Bankers are preparing to do their full
share on the third loan. and to this ex-
tent have taken Treasury ceruhcates

Cocoanut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in COOL
condition, be careful what you wash it
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 entirely grease
less), is much better than the most ex-
pensive soap or anything else you can
use for shampooing, as this can't pos
Sibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub il in. One or two teaspoonfulS
will make an abundance of rich, creamy
lather, anl cleanses the hair and scalp
thoroughly The lather rinses out easily,
and removes every particle Of dust, dirt,
dandruff and excessive oil The hair
dries quickly and evenly, and il leaves it
fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy TO
manage
You can get mulsificd 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

An Old Mans Stomach.

AS we grow older and less active,
less and less food is required to meet
the demands of our bodies. If too
much is habitually taken, the stom-
ach will rebel. When a man reaches
the advanced age of 50 or 90, you
will find that he is a light eater. Be
as careful as you will, however, you
will occasionally eat more than you
should and will feel the need of
Chamberlain's Tablets to correct the
disorder. These tablets do not con
tain pepsin, but strengthen the stom-
ach and enable it to perform its
functions naturally. They also cause
a gentle movement OF the bowels.

MECHANICS GET SPLENDID PAY
AND EXPERIENCE IN NAVY.

That all skilled men, particularly
mechanics, fare well in the Navy is
proved by the fact that these men re-
main in the service for many cruises.
that they r contented, prosperous,
support their dependents in comfort
and still manage to lay by a neat
sum in the bank.
The generous pay given mechanics
makes this possible. Since the ser
vices of skilled men form the back
bone of Naval efficiency, such men
are given high ratings and pay in &C
cord with their ability. The recruit,
new to Navy ways, is given every en-
enlargement. He has the benefit o.
training in the trade schools and is
advanced as rapidly as possible.
A mechanic in civil life who draws
SIS " Sc a day will not understand
the Navy pay table at first glance.
TO him it will appear inadequate.
When he is told of the many ways in
which the base pay is supplemented,
he will then see how a man can save
more money in the Navy than in civil
life.
The high cost of living IN no way
affects a sailor. Meat, egg butter,
fuel, cotton and wool may soar sky
high, but he lives off the best food
the country produces, is we'll clad,
and furnished warm quarters, all at
no cost to him. Medical bills have
no terrors for him, for the Navy
hospitals are for him when he is
i'll, free of charge, and he continues
to draw full pay, even when incapa-
citated for duty.
Though impossible to explain all
the benefits of Naval service here, the
following is cited as a case in point.

To Guide .hc "walking wounded

is furnishing the army with thousands

What the Red Cross may be called
upon TO do in the further course OF

tory. peace and reconstruction, it
would be idle to attempt to prOpheSy.
But this great organization. in very
truth ''the modified heart and spirit
of the whole American people," has
shown itself equal to any call, ready
to respond to any emergency.
An italian ~"dOughbOy" walked INTO
