Use Cocoanut Oil
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 ANAL This dries the
scalp makes the hair brittle, and is very
harmful Just plain mulsiiied cocoanut
oil (Which is pure and entirely grease
lcss), is much better than the most ex-
pensive soap or anything else you can
use for shafhpooing, as this can't pos
sibly injure the hair
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub il in. One or two teaspooniuls
will make an abundance Of rich, creamy
lather, and clcanses 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 mulsifitd cocaonut oil at
most any drug store II is very cheap,
and a few ounces is enough TO last
everyone in the family for months.

Rev. w. l.. Hayes Killed

Richmond, Va, June 18.-The
Rev. William L. Hayes, Baptist cler-
gyman of Barnwell. 8. c., formerly
located at Marion, 8. c.. and at San
ford. N. c.. died at a Petersburg hos
pital today as a result of injuries sus-
tanned in an automobile accident
yesteray while on his way from Rich
mond to Camp Lee with his oldest
son, Charming and a party of sew
eral friends.
When the car, Ford, with his son
at the wheel, was within several
miles of Petersburg, it suddenly
swerved from the road, turning over
twice, but, strange to say, no one was
hurt. The clergyman, after the ma
chine had been righted, began driv-
ing 1t himself. There was something
the matter with the gear and it soon
turned over again. This time, he was
caught under the car and though ap-
parently he was not seriously hurt,
he lapsed into Inconsistencies after
being taken to the Petersburg hospit-
al and died presumably of an inter
nal hemmorrhage in the region of
the chest.
Other members of the party es-
capped with slight injuries. Mr.. Hayes
was 81 years old and son-in-law of
NJ. r. Pace, widely known printer OF
this city. His wife who was with her
parents here, hurried to Petersburg
upon learning of the accident and
reached his bedside just before he
became unconscious.
Mr.. Hayes had a brother, George
Hayes, and two married sisters liv-
ing in Charleston, S. c. One of these
is Mrs. Carl Matthews. He was a
native of Petersburg, Va. The funer-
al will be held here.
