DR.. Dixon's Chair
Draped in Black

The chair and desk of Dr.. Samuei
G. Dixon, the late Commissioner OF
Health, were to-day draped in black
and the flag on the Capitol which
was nIaced at half-staff yesterday
upon receipt of the news of the Com
missioner's death, will remain so un.
til after the funeral. On the day of
the services the offices of the De
partment of Health here and in
other cities and the numerous state
dispensaries, will be closed. 1t is
probable that a number of the de-

will also close on that day out OF re-

Governor Brumbaugh and leading

ices. The Governor has declined to
discuss stories from Philadelphia

phiaL director of health, was being
discussed as a possible successor to
DR.. Dixon.

DISTRICT TEACHERS, MEETING
Cocoanut Oil Makes
A Splendid Shampoo

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what YOU
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This
dries the scalp, makes the beir
brittle, and is very harmful. Just
plain mulsified cocoanut oil (Which
is pure and entirely greaseless). is
much better than the most expen-
sive soap or anything else you can
use for shampooing, as this can't
possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it 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 cas-
lily and removes every particle of
dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive
oil. The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and it leaves it fine and
silky, bright, fluffy and easy to
manage.
You can get mulsiffed cocoanut
oil at most any drug store. 1t is
very cheap, and a few ounces is
enough to last everyone in the FAM
lily for months.

4 press dispatch sent out from
Washington Tuesday states that the
Federal government will soon fix the
price OF cotton. and that the price
agreed upon is 25 cents per pound
with a possible increase to 2S cents
later. The present market price Of
the staple is 33 cents.
For some time past pressure has
been brought to bear on the govern
ment to have the price OF cotton
fixed. The movement, however, was
stubbornly opposed by Southern
senators and congressman, and It
was thought for a while that this
opposition would prove efreetlye;
but the Western representatives be
came too nsistent They contendod
that as the government had fixed
the price OF wheat the same police
should be adopted with regard to
cotton, and the government seems TO
have finally reached this conclusion
