Alkali Makes Soap
Bad For Washing Hair

Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkali. which
is very injurious, as it dries the scalp
and makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain
mulsified cocoanut oil, for this is
pure and entirely greaseless. It's
very cheap, and beats the most ex-
pensive soaps or anything else all to
pieces. You can get this at any drug
store. and a few ounces will last the
whole family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with
water and rub it in, about tea
spoonful is all that is required. 1t
makes an abundance of rich, creamy
lather, cleanses thoroughly. and
rinses out easily. The hair dries
quickly and evenly. and is soft, fresh
looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy
to handle. Besides, it loosens and
takes out every particle of dust. dirt
and dandruff.

After looking at the passport, he informed me that he was sorry but could not enlist me, as it would be a breach of neutrality. insisted that I was not neutral, be- cause to me it seemed that a real American could not be neutral when big things were in progress, but the captain would not enlist me.
 With disgust in my heart went out in the street. I had gone about a block when a recruiting sergeant who had followed me out of the office tapped me on the shoulder with his swagger stick and said: "S'y, I can get you in the army. We have a lief tenant down at the other office who can do anything. He has just come out of the o. T. c.

All that stands between Billy Miske, the St. Paul battler who plucked big wads of prestige from the classic brow of Fred Fulton recently, and bout with Jess Willard, despite the divergence in size between them, is Miske's lack of a knockout punch. It is not exaggerating to state that the St. Paul mauler stands head and shoulders over every light heavyweight campaigning today, and that he ex- cells every heavyweight except Fulton and Willard. Had Miske possessed something akin to a knockout wallop when he met Fulton he might have made the Rochester Giants" elimina- ton as a contender for the worlds title complete. Miske hit the big fel- low repeatedly. He stung him often, as he has stung Jack Dillon, Bcb Moha, Carl Morris and others. But the old sleep producing wallop wasn't there.
