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 mulsified cocoanut oil, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap and beat sthe most expensive soaps or anything else all to pieces. You can get this at any drug store, and few ounces will last the whole family for months. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in. about a teaspoonful is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather cleanses thoroughly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust, dirt and dandruff.

Le barDler oe seville, four act comedy by Beaumarchais will be pre- sented by 'le cercie francais' of Con- necticut college at the gymnasium on Friday night. The play will be given in the original and the cast of charac- ters has been selected from the more prominent students in the French de- partment.

 Mariesther Dougherty of MiddletoWn, as the Comte and lover of Rosine, is assisted in his affair by Figaro, play
 ed by Miss Dorothy Henkle, of New London. Figaro represents the author at his best and is an alert, cunning, in
 ventive, talent creature feeling his so-
 cial inferiority very deeply. The 'Barbier de Seville" is simple. ingenious, effective; the dialogue is most brilliant. The comedy is essen
 tially French in spirit and the allusions
 are to the social and political condi-
 tions in France. The play is being coached by Miss Carola Ernst and Dr. Esther Cary of the romance department at the college and it's presentation represents the achievement of college students in ac- quiring the mastery of a foreign lang
 uage to such a fluent degree. The cast is as follows: Le Comte-Mariesther Doughery. Middletown. Bartholo-Rosa Wilcox, Norwich. Rosine Antoinette Taylor, New London. Figaro-Dorothy Henkle, New Lon i don.
