Alkali in S~harnpoos
Bad For Washing Hair

Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkaH. which is very
injurious, as it dries the scalp and
makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is Mulsified
cocoanut oil shampoo, for this is pure
and entirely g~reaseless. 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.
