C0C0ANUT OIL FINE
FOR WASHING HAIR

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 alkah This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is
very harmful just plain mulsified 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 moisten your hair with water
and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls
will make an abundance of rich,
creamy lather and cleanses the hair
and scalp thoroughly. The lather rinses
out easily, 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 mulsified cocoanut oil
at. most any drug store. 1t is very
cheap, and few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family for months

Tells How It Feels To Jockey
With Hun Fighter High
Up In Air.
(COpyright, l9ls, by united pres.l

Copyright, 1918, by United Press)
With the American Airmen in France
July lo.-(By MaiD.-'sHow do you
feel up there in the air when yua re
Joekeying with Hun for a chance to
bring him down before he gets Won ~,
was the question put to Eddie Ricken,
hacker, American ace and former auto-
mobile racer.
Riekenbacker reflected a moment and
then said:
"You don't feel very much, because
you are too busy watching the Heinie,s
machine. But you think of it as a ma
chine and not as a man. | never think
OF the man in the boehe plane, but re-
gard a fight as sport, in which we
both take chances, and if he is better
than | and uses better Judgment he
Will get me, but if | am the better
sportsman / II get him first.
Fighting in the air, in the chase
work at any rate, is more question
OF keen thinking and good Judgment
than anything else. You first try to
outguess your opponent and then try
to get position on him. Attacking is a
question of knowing when to pique ON
him and when not to.
"Of course good flyer has to have
his nerve with him, and we all fear the
mistake of not attacking when we
should more than we fear being shot
down. A mistake like that, of allowing
your nerve to fail you just once; would
weaken a man and we know it. How.
ever, we also know we cannot bc fool
