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 sham
poos contain too much alkali. This
dries the scalp, makes the hair brit
tie, and is very harmful. Just plain
mulsified cocoanut 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.s
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub it in. One or two
teaspoonfuls will make an abund-
ance of rich, creamy lather. and
cleanses the hair and scalp thor
oughly. 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 a few ounces is enough
to last everyone in the family for
months.-Advertise

a number of other wealthy He
brews in Germany were also hon

although he was averse to visiting
the homes of private individuals
who lacked social standing. he de-
parted from his rule in their favor
and visited their mansions ostensibly
to view their art collections. but
actually to tickle their vanity.
Shortly after Leishman became
American ambassador to Germany,
the Kaiser called on me.
Your new ambassadors daughter

has attended our court in many Il
day." he declared. Half q dozen
Of my young staff officers are very
anxious to marry her. Can you
tell me, Davis, whether these Leish-
mans have money?
If the Kaiser despised the Ameri-
can propensity for money-making.
he was certainly not averse to ac-
Qutring American dollars.
He told me once that every trip
the Hamburg liner Amer
ika" made from New York to Ham
burg resulted in transferring $780,
600 from American to German
pockets, and added: We're mighty
glad to get some of your American
money, l can tell YOU"

Variably displayed surprising store
of information on every topic we
touched, and l am not vain enough
to believe that he was so anxious to
make a favorable impression upon
me that he prepared for these dis
cussionS in advance.
Indeed, the Kaiser discussed so
freely almost every subject that sug-
gested itself that I often wondered
what his advisers would have said
had they overheard our conversa-
tions. His readiness to talk to me
was undoubtedly due to a tendency
he had to trust everyone with whom
he came in intimate contact. For
a man who was apt to have so
many enemies, he was less suspi-
cious than any one I had ever met.
He seemed to trust everyone, and
his sense of security loosened his
tongue and made him more talka-
tive, perhaps, than was always dis
Greet.

Germans Use Skeleton
Torpedoes In U-Boat Work

An Irish Port, Aug. 16.-The Ger
mans in their extremity to make
their raw materials for munitions go
as far as possible have stripped their
torpedoes until they are bare as skel-
etons compared to the former etfici-
ent mechanisms.
1t seems that the Idea of the Ger
mans Is to gain the highest possible
explosive power and to eliminate the
delicate and expensive propelling
and steering apparatus. This has been
done at the cost of accuracy and
range of fire and at the same time
enhances the danger to the U-boats
by forcing them much closer to their
target than would be necessary If
the older type of torpedoes were
used. But 1t has resulted in a great
saving of copper and brass and
doubtless has facilitated quantity
production.

rowed from Il State Bank more than its
capital stock, when, under the law, State
Banks are forbidden 10 lend To any one
person more than ten per centum of its
capital stock. Again he admitted that he
deposited at one time S250,000 of the
states money to the credit of this same
bank in Temple which had over roaned
him money and in which he owned about
one-thrd interest, TO enable this bank To
make two per cent on dily balances on
Std money, instead of depositing same in
the state treasury where the law requires
that it should be.
2nd.-Ferguson stands for dishonesty
in public office, because he admitted that
he had paid his own private note and in
terest due amounting to $4,000 out Of the
Canyon City normal funds which he had
IN his possessions as governor of the
