A SHAMPOO WORTH TRYING

1t is not necessary to shampoo your
hair so frequently if it is entirely and
properly cleansed each time by the
use of a really good shampoo. The
easiest to use and the quickest drying
shampoo that We can recommend to
our readers is one that brings out al
the natural beauty of the hair and may
be enjoyed at very little expense, by
dissolving teaspoonful of canthrox,
which can be obtained from any drug
gist's, in a cup of hot water. This
makes a full cup of shampoo liquid
enough so it is easy to apply it to all
the hair instead of just to the top of
the head This, when rubbed into the
scalp and onto every strand of hair,
chemically dissolves all impurities. 1t
is very soothing and cooling in its ac-
ton, well as beneficial to both scalp
and hair. After rinsing out the lather
SO created, you will find the scalp is
fresh, clean and free from dandruff,
while the hair dries quickly and even
~, developing a bright luster and a
soft fluffiness that makes it seem very
heavy.-Adv.

Alkali In Soap
Bad For the Hair

Soap should be used very carefully,
if you want to keep your hair looking
its best. Most soaps and prepared
shampOos contain too much alkaIi.
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 gfeaseless), and is better
than the most expensive soap or any
thing else you can use
One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply
moisten the hair with water and rub it
in. 1t makes an abundan nee 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
al any pharmacy. it's very cheap, and
a few ounces will supply every mem
Der of the family for months.-Adv.

STRIKE IN TOPEKA
Painters and Paperhangers May Go
Out Here April 4.

Topeka painters and paperhangers
threaten to go on strike April 1 unless
the employers of the city grant the
wage increase which the craftsmen de-
mand.
The painters and paperhangers as
sert that they have been working for
fifty cents an hour since April, 1917.
They say that the contract expires the
first day of April. this year, and that
in view of the fact that they have re-
ceived no increase in wages since the
contract was signed they will either
strike al that time or the employers
must "see' the raise.
The employers of the men assert
that they are willing to arbitrate the
matter but state that they cannot and
will not meet all the demands of the
painters. 1t was stated at a meeting
of the contractors and builders and
material men of Topeka at the Cham
ber OF Commerce Wednesday that the
painters demand means an approx
mate raise of So per day.

"GABBY" SCOTT is
NOW WITH PAINTERS

''Gabby'' Scott, star quarterback Of
the Birmingham college gridiron ag
gregation of 1916, reported in uniform
to Coach Charlie Brown on Munger
field at the initial football practice of
the week for the Panthers Monday
afternoon, and began work to land a
berth on the varsity for the coming
season. The return of Scott to. the
fold this year certainly boosts Panther
hopes, for the former quarterback is a
gridiron star of the highest caliber.
He very successfully ran the team in
'16, and his addition to the backfield
will add considerable punch and exper-
fence to the squad.
The unexpected return of a number
Of players makes the Panther squad
look more formidable each day. and
when several other players, who are ex-
pected at any time, arrive, the squad
will be complete.
Thirty candidates were on the field
Monday afternoon, the first practice
Of the week, and all put in several
hours of hard work. The first real
gridiron work of the season will be be-
gun this week, and everyone is anx.
ous to get a real line on the excellent
prospects which have been gathered
together for the 1919 season.
