Hair Often Ruined
BY Washing With Soap

Soap should be used very carefully, il
you want to keep your hair looking itN
best Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkali. This
dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle,
and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is just
ordinary mulsiiied cocoanut oil (Which
is pure and greaselessl, and is better
than the most expensive soap or any
thing else YOU can use
One or two teaspooniuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply
moisten 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. (Adv)

Conservative Muse OF History.

1t is the unhappy usage of our
schools and universities to study the
history of mankind only during periods
Of mechanical unprogressiveness. The
historical ideas of, Europe range be-
tween the time when the Greeks were
going about the world on foot or horse
back or In galleys or sailing ships, to
the days when Napoleon, Wellington
and Nelson were going about at very
much the same pace In much the same
vehicles and vessels. At the advent of
steam and electricity the muse of his
tory holds her nose and shuts her eyes.
Science will study and get the better
OF a modern disease, as for example,
sleeping sickness, In spite Of the fact
that IL has no classical standing, but
our history schools would be shocked
at the bare idea OF studying the effect
of modern means Of communication
upon administrative areas, large or
small. This defect In our historical
training has made our minds politi-
cally sluggish.-H. @. Wells In New
Republic.

HANDLES SOLDIERS INSURANCE

The success of Willard d. Straight,
who after having made his mark in the
world of finance has now enlisted In
the service of Uncle Sam and Is ma
jor in the United States Reserve corps
and in charge of soldiers war insur-
ance, might be attributed to the train

In the Imperial college at Tokyo.
In addition to his natural abilities
he has love Of adventure. From the
time "Izzy" Straight, as he was called

he spent much of his boyhood, he has
been climbing steadily upward.

BLIND MAN ENJOYS FLIGHT
Appreciated the Thrill Of Intricate
Aerial Maneuvers Performed by
Experienced Pilot.

Thomas d. Schall, the blind con-
gresham from the Tenth Minnesota
district, made flights with Col. Charles
Lee of the British royal flying corps
in Washington recently. 1t was the
first time he had been up in an air
plane.
Congressman Schall was not salts.
fed with the plain "joy ride" Colonel
Lee had given him. When they re-
turned to earth after circling over the
city at an altitude of about two thou
sand feet, the blind representative
asked for more thrills.
"Finei FineI" he exclaimed, as the
machine came to halt. "But, Colonel
Lee, IL you wouldn't think me a nui-
sance, would like to 60 back up and
turn over"
The biplane was wheeled into posi-
ton again, and off 1t shot on a trip of
real sensations. Climbing rapidly to
about two thousand feet. Colonel Lee
started the machine into a series of
dips and dives, splrals and other aerial
antics calculated to make ones hair
stand on edge. To complete the thrills
the airplane was made to roll over
sideways and then drop into beauti-
full nose spin.
The passengers sightless eyes were
blinking with delight when his wife
ran onto the field to assist him from
the machine.

clares that, had he accepted the Job,
the war would be over; perhaps, there
never would have been a war.
Pierard wAs only eighteen years of
age when, In 1886, he was married the
first time. His wife died in child
birth. He eloped with a boarding
house mistress and left her when he
found she had q husband. With his
third wife he lived Is years. Pierard
had by this time taken up wrestling,
and In his search for perfect woman
began to marry at the slightest provo
cation. Some of his marriage contracts
lasted only three months and one last
ed only u hours.
Pierard declares that Italian and
Spanish women have too much temper.
French women are too capricious. Eng
lish women are too cold. and German
women too stupid. Russian women, he
believes, are the best because they
are obedient and wait on their hus-
bands hand and foot. He has never
married an American woman and de
clares he never will, because they have
too much liberty and would make him
so Jealous that they would drive him
crazy.
