Cocoanut Oh Makes
A Splendid Shampoo

II you want to keep your hair in good
condition, be careful wha. you wash il
with.
Most soaps and prepared shamQoos
contain too much alkali. This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle. and is
very harmful Just plain mulsifed CO.
coanut oil (Which is pure and entirely
greaseless>. is much better than the
most expensive soap or anything else
you can use for shampooing, as this
can't possibly injure the hair.
Simply rloisten your hair with water
and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls
will make an abundance OF rich, creamy
lather, and cleanse the hair and scalp
thoroughly. The lather rinses out sas-
fly. and removes every particle Of dust,
dirt, dandruff and excessive oil The
hair dries quickly and evenly. and j.
leaves it fine and silky. bright, fifty
and easy to manage.
You can get mulsil,ed cocoanut OH at
most any drug store. Vt is very cheap,
and a few ounces is enough TO last

No Summer School at Penn.

Philadelphia.--The University OF
Pennsylvania announced yesterday
that it will not hold a summer school
this year. It's statement in part fol-
lows:
This decision of the board Of trus-
tees is due to the abnormal conditions
brought on by the war. The summer
school suffered a considerable decrease
in attendance in 1917 and how large
would be the further decrease in 1918
could, OF course, not be predicted. Un-a
I'll 1917 the school had grown steadily
and rapidly in enrolment. 1t has q
most important place in the education
al system Of the university, and 1t IS
to be hoped that the return Of normal
times may speedily make possible not
only q revival OF the summer school,
but an enlargement Of It's field Of use-
fulness."
A thousand students, mostly school
teachers from this city and various
sections Of the state, were registered in
the school last summer. The school
was started in 1904.
