Careless Use of
Soap Spells the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully, if
you want to keep your hair looking its
best. Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much allsali. This
dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle,
and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is just
ordinary mulsi6ed cocoanut oil (Which
is pure and greaseless), and is better
than the most expensive soap or any
thing else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply
noisten the hair with water and rub it
in. It makes an abundance of rich,
creamy lather. which rinses out easily,
removing every particle of dust, dirt,
dandruff and excessive oil. The hair
dries quickly 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 supply every member of the
family for months.

Women Everywhere
Use Lemon Juice
To Beautify Skin

The beauty lotion which is be-
coming SO popular throughout the
country is easily prepared by anyone,
and whole quarter pint of 1t doesn't
cost any more than small jar OF the
common, ordinary cold creams.
Add the juice of two fresh lemons
TO three ounces of orchard white and
shake we'll in a bottle. Strain the
lemon juice two or, three times
through fine cloth SO no pulp gets
into the lotion. then it will keep fresh
for months. Regardless of what price
you pay or how highly advertised,
there is nothing else really more mer-
iorious in identifying, softening and
clearing the skin. AS a tan and blem-
sh remover, also to remove oil1ness
and sallowness, lemon juice has no
rlval. Massage it into the face, neck
and arms once or twice each day. and
Just see If it doesn't bring out the
roses and hidden beauty!
Lemons have always been used to
bleach the skin, but pure lemon juice
IS too highly acid. therefore should
never be used except In this manner.
II properly prepared. this sweetly
fragrant lotion will speak for itself.
ANY drug store will supply you with
three ounces of orchard white at very
little cost, and the grocer will supply
The lemons.

NEED MILK AND CHEESE

DIES MONIES, Ia, Apr. I'm his
report just made, state Dairy Com
missioner Barney shows how the Iowa
dairy COW, aided by the Iowa farm
woman, can be of great help in win
ming the war through the conservation
of food.
Milk and cheese are the most val
liable substitutes for meat says Mr..
Barney, and cost about half as much
as the cheaper cuts OF meat Tfey
are produced locally and are easily
obtained There is no waste to milk
no husk. bone skin or shell to discard.
Commissioner Barney's report con
tains a number Of cuts illustrating the
relative food value of milk and milk
products as compared with other
foods. For instance, it appears that
cream cheese possesses more nutr1-
tive value than meat, and that quart
of milk is equal in food value to
quart and a half of oysters.
