The old-time mixture Of Sage Tea

Be Careful What You
Wash Your Hair With

Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali, which is very
injurious, as 1t dries the scalp and
makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use Is mulsifled
cocoanut oil shampoo, for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap
and beats 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 a t~easpoonful is all
that is required. 1t makes an abundance
