Hair Often Ruined
By Washing With Soap

Soap should be used very carefully,
II you want TO keep your hair looking
its best. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much slkali.
This dries the scalp. makes the hair
brittle. and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is just
ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil (Which
is pure and greaseless). and is better
than the most expensive soap or any
thing else you car. use.
One or two teaspoonsful will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply
moisten the hair with water and rub it
in. It makes an abundance OF rich,
creamy lather. which rinses out easily,
removing every particle OF dust. dirt,
dandruff and excessive oil The hair
dries quickly and evenly. and it leaves
the scalp soft. and the hair fine and
silky, bright, lustrous. fluffy and easy
to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy. it's very cheap. and
a few ounces Will supply every men,
der Of the family Tor months.-Adv.

When I was serving as school

You are seeking reelection. Now.
I challenge you TO publish detailed

OF the employees duties.
You have this month paid out the
money that the city owed for Decem-
