Alkali Makes Soap
 Bad For Washing Hair

Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, which is very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle.
 The best thing to use is just plain mul- si6ed cocoanut oil, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats the most expensive soaps or any, thing else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store, and few ounces will last the whole family for months.
