ALKALI IN SOAP
BAD FOR THE HAIR

Soap should be used very care
fully, IL you want to keep your
hair looking its best. Most soaps
and prepared shampoos contain
too much alkali. This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle,
and ruins 1t.
The best thing for steady use is
just ordinary mulsified cocoanut
oil (which~is pure and grease
less) and is better than the most
expensive soap or anything else
you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will
cleanse the hair and scalp thor
oughly. Simply moisten the
hair with water and rub 1t In. 1t
makes an abundance of rich,
creamy lather, which rinses out
easily, removing every particle
of dust. dirt, dandruff and ex-
cessive oil. The hair dries quick
ly and evenly, and It leaves the
scalp soft, and the hair fine and
silky, bright. lustrous, fluffy and
easy to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut
oil at any pharmacy it's very
cheap, and few ounces will sup
ply every member Of the family
