Be Careful in Using
Soap on Your 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
mulsified cocoanut oil, for it is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap,
and beats the most expensive soaps or
anything else all to pieces You can
get this at any drug store, and a few
ounces will last the whole family for
months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in, about teaspoonful is
